I think its a tradition that she got from our grandmother "ming2x" Its so delicious specially if with Coffee the best of all Filipino Delicacy. Its nice to have coffee when its raining it keeps me warm from whole day cold rain and it relaxes me while I'm in the couch watching the Korean Movies.

Vampires Vs Wolves
I love watching fictions movies, like vampires and wolves its so interesting and it gives me the chills and thrill. I keep on anticipating the next and final movie of the Twilight Saga, i haven't read the book but i watch all the movie. I am really looking forward to the last one. We also have our own version of the Vampires and Wolves Movies, actually its not a movie, It is called Teleserye here in the Philippines because it is only shown every night from Monday to Friday, The Cast are the Best Actress Angel Locsin(Lea- Wolf) and Best Actor John loyd Cruz(Mateo-Vampire), i used to have a crush on him. :-) It may sound that it is copied from the movie Twilight but it has different story. I think it has the highest rating, most of my friends love watching it and i do too. Its the continuation of the Teleserye that is shown year 2008, The Title is Lobo which the story is about the wolves, the main cast is Angel Locsin(Lyka) and Piolo Pascual(Noah) Angel Locsin is the wolf and Piolo is just a mortal, they got married and have kid which is Angel Locsin as Lea in Imortal.
Brothers Daughter
This is Juleanne it's our brother julius daughter, She lives in her mom in Davao City here in the Philippines. she will be turning two years old this coming November 13, We miss her, specially my parents. as you know my parents are so eager to have grandchildren that lives to us, but unfortunately there grandchildren are living far away from us, like my brother Boyet he lives in Cebu City with his wife and kids, my sister Sheila who lives in Pittsburgh in U.S, and of course Juleanne who lives in Davao. She was born here in Cagayan de Oro, She and her mom supposed to live with us but her mother refused with out us knowing the reason. I just come to think how it feels to have kids roaming around our house, seeing my parents watching over them and playing with them. I am sure if that happens my Father would stop his vices because he will be pretty busy watching their grandchildren. I wish juleanne will visit us here or hopefully she will celebrate her 2nd Birthday with us..:-)

Search for the Eye drama...
My dog Prince has this long hair in front of his eyes, my father cut this when he is still a puppy so it showed his big round Eyes, we kinda don't like it to be cut because he looks like an Owl, so we decided to let it grow, and we will just put a rubber so it don't cover his eyes, but sometimes he can remove the rubber band when he do this scratching, and the hair will cover his eyes. sometimes when he run he bangs to the chair or door because he can't see clearly... hehehe he is so Adorable... :-)
Hmmm Durian Fruit...
Durian Fruit is one of my favorite most people don't like it because of the smell, but i can say that you must not choose your food base on the smell or the look. they say that don't judge the book based on its cover, it applies in food too, i made some research of how we can have the nutritional and medical benefit in this fruit.
(From Wikipedia)
Durian fruit contains a high amount of sugar, vitamin C, potassium, and the serotonergic amino acid tryptophan, and is a good source of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. It is recommended as a good source of raw fats by several raw food advocates, while others classify it as a high-glycemic or high-fat food, recommending to minimise its consumption. The rich estrogens of the durian may increase fertility.
In Malaysia, a decoction of the leaves and roots used to be prescribed as an antipyretic. The leaf juice is applied on the head of a fever patient.The most complete description of the medicinal use of the durian as remedies for fevers is a Malay prescription, collected by Burkill and Haniff in 1930. It instructs the reader to boil the roots of Hibiscus rosa-sinensis with the roots of Durio zibethinus, Nephelium longan, Nephelium mutabile and Artocarpus integrifolia, and drink the decoction or use it as a poultice.
In the 1920s, Durian Fruit Products, Inc., of New York City launched a product called "Dur-India" as a health food supplement, selling at US$9 for a dozen bottles, each containing 63 tablets. The tablets allegedly contained durian and a species of the genus Allium from India and vitamin E. The company promoted the supplement saying that it provides "more concentrated healthful energy in food form than any other product the world affords".
Go Green ( Ang Ganda Mo Project )
My mother is a member of a religious Organization which called Handmaids of the Lord, She is one of the Unit head in the Org. The organization has this project once a month that they will clean every barangay in our city, they clean the seashore of our barangay, they got many garbage because we live near the port area where maybe the passengers of the ship throw their garbage in the sea.. its depressing that there are still many people who don't have any care for the effect of those garbage to our mother earth. my mom and the other member are having so much fun while doing this project.
