Del, Hypoallergenic Fabric Softener

Itchy and grumpy allergic kids?

Protect your child from skin allergy like rashes and itchiness by using hypoallergenic products. These hypoallergenic products are not just limited to using body creams, lotions and soaps.

Using products that are safe for the children’s sensitive skin and definitely mommy recommended is important to ensure the best products for them:

Lumpiang Shanghai

Lumpiang Shanghai

The kids love these crunchy rolls dipped in sweet and sour sauce. This is a must-have in a nearby “old style eatery” (ala panciteria) that serve Chinese-inspired food.

Coupled with a bowl of warm noodles, this is a simple meal that will surely warm tummies during rainy days.

Sorbetes

“Mamang Sorbetero, ano’ng ngalan mo, tinda mong ice cream, gustung-gusto ko…”

hey, wait for me!

Mamang Sorbetero

Si Mamang Sorbetero, can I buy a cone of cheese flavored sorbetes?

Have You Tried Online Auctions?

I got an email from a friend regarding free online auctions going-ons with a website where we both contribute articles for.

I know it is a not a really good idea to take a peek but if I do, I might like it and spend a lot there. A lot more than I can actually afford on a lot of things that I don’t actually need at the moment.

Yes, we know how it is with discounted items, we might need this thing or that one of these days 😀

Artificial Christmas Tree

I would love to have a real Christmas tree but living in warm tropical-like country, that is not a possibility (unless I order real trees from overseas and pay a fortune which I would never do).

So here is a part of our artificial Christmas tree with home-made ribbon decors and paper stuff that the children made:

A few more days to go and we usher in the -ber months.

Yes, Christmas is near.

Ukay-Ukay Clothes

Shopping for clothes is a retail therapy that women, or men, will not say “no” to. To think that the garments factory is one of the lucrative businesses around is proof that people like to buy clothes.

Do you know that there are clothes that can be bought in bulk? I have not heard about wholesale clothes and this idea seem fresh to me. This reminds me of clothes being sold in “ukay-ukay” shops where bundles of clothes can be sold: from tops to shoes.

I have several tops and shorts that I got from an ukay-ukay store nearby 🙂

*ukay-ukay means to dig, literally means to dig through piles of used clothes
