Plants Versus Zombies Almanac

Addiction is a strong word. If this is going to be used to describe my preference for digital game, then Plants Versus Zombies would be my choice. For now.

plantsVzombiesalmanac

We enjoy playing the games here over and over again. We try to develop various plant combination to prevent these zombies from entering our house.

I was a bit tempted to use cheat codes but nah, that would lessen the fun and the challenge. Even without these, we still managed to complete the lineup of plants and zombies after a few days.

I even forgot a friend’s request about helping her find the best fat burners for her beach trip a few weeks from now because I am always busy fighting zombies on my lawn 😀

Shopping for Shirts

The husband is a bit meticulous when it comes to buying men’s polo shirts.

He has a certain preference for a certain type of cloth. He prefers the hem to be straight especially since he is not fond of tucking in the shirt inside his pants. He even has a parameter for how long the shirt should be. He is not brand-conscious too, unlike other men.

I don’t believe only women have a hard time looking for what they like when shopping for clothes. Men have strong preferences too 🙂

Chi-chi, our American Pit Bull Terrier

This is Chi-chi, our American Pit Bull Terrier.

Chichi

Chichi (who I already featured in a PH entry here) is sweet with the kids and is very playful. Yes, she is cuddly but we seldom cuddle her because she is big, heavy, and muscled.

When she steps on your toes with her big paws or stands up and the nails scratched your arm, you will definitely say “Awww!”

Pit Bulls are probably one of the misunderstood breeds among dogs.

Oops, my short post just got long. I am a bit busy these days and had only a little time to write a post.

Now back to looking for pre-employment screening for a friend who is putting up a new biz.

Skin Care with Virgin Coconut Oil

Being on the lookout for natural skin care, one of the best things to use would be virgin coconut oil.

As I have mentioned in this post about the soaps we have used which have virgin coconut oil as a main ingredient, pure coconut oil has so many benefits to the skin and in my opinion, should be included in most beauty products being sold in the market.

Why the country, with so many coconut tree plantations is not cashing on virgin coconut oil in the skin care products being manufactured here is a puzzle to me. Virgin coconut oil, not chemicals, should be patronized and used because of  its healthy benefits.

These are just some of the skin conditions that are best dealt with pure coconut oil: dry, wrinkled skin, psoriasis, eczema treatment, dermatitis, among others.

This is just about skin care benefits. There are also healthy benefits for hair care, stress relief, weight loss, digestion, dealing with a variety of infections are just some of the few that benefit from the use of virgin coconut oil.

I really hope this product will be used so consumers will benefit from its good results.
