Thank you BLU TACK!!

Blu Tack saved my phone.

I’ve seen Blu Tack in National Bookstore for years. I’ve always wondered what it was for. There are packs of blue Blu Tack and packs of colored and gray BluTack. It was only recently – more specifically last March 2010 that I learned what it was actually for.

I learned of BluTac through Jojo and Cubie – this happened while looking around in National Bookstore Trinoma. Since they both knew I was a ‘pen’ addict – they surmised that I knew almost everything in National Bookstore. They were actually surprised to learn that – I didn’t know what a Blu Tack was and what it was for!

They began explaining what it was for and how convenient and easy it was to use! This piqued my curiosity. But it was only yesterday, while I was at the SM North Edsa department store – that I actually bought one.

The first thing I did was fix my fridge door. I do not have a collection of refrigerator door magnets and so this time, I was able to hang everything I needed on the door without having to overlap papers to utilize the small tiny magnets that I bought in Daiso.

While reading the label I thought to myself – could the Blu Tack fix my phone? My Sony Ericsson’s rubber design on the phone has lost its adhesive, thus – it’s been dangling and getting caught with things inside my bag. I started to cut tiny portions of the Blu Tack and sticking it underneath the rubber thingie and voila – my phone was INSTANTLY fixed!


I never thought my phone was save-able! I was seriously thinking of upgrading it already! But since it has been fixed – I will NEVER change my phone ever! (Until it conks out)

Thank YOU Blu Tack! You’re such a lifesaver!!

I will forever be indebted to you because you fixed my beloved phone!!

ANSON SUPERMARKET - Grocery delivery!!

Sharing is caring, so we can't keep it a secret any longer.  THIS is where we get out groceries!  Well, Anson Supermarket has been where we have been purchasing all of our kids' diapers!  From Kailee to Connor to Shobe!  Yes, yes, yes! A week into the lockdown, it just occurred to us that we can get our groceries from them - but then we thought, we didn't want to force them to do it - after all it's a different time now.  But when we asked and they said yes, it was like we won the lottery.  We sent out our list - a very VERY SPECIFIC list and voila after a day or two (we weren't in a rush) they told us to schedule a pick up.  Please remember that I am sharing this with you guys because I believe so much in the saying 'sharing is caring'.  Please be mindful of your language and respect those who will call or message you about your orders.  Also note that some items might NOT be available - so manage your expectations.   They're a ...

#CookingQuest: Winter Melon Soup ala Didi #EnhancedCommunity

One of the things that gets ooohs and aaaahs in a chinese restaurant is the #WinterMelonSoup.   You may ask why?  Well because with this soup, restaurants use the winter melon itself as a huge bowl to serve the soup!  It's a sight to see as you'll be amazed how they were able to pull it off.  You'll see the whole winter melon, and then suddenly they're take out the top part and when you peek in, the soup is inside together with meat bits and other veggies!  My mom has tried it at home, and I remember her being nervous that the winter melon doesn't break apart, kunde sira ang presentation! So during this #EnhancedCommunityQuarantine, I chanced upon Theo's Farm that they have winter melon, so I ordered.  When I saw it - I knew I wouldn't be able to pull off the carving and serving the winter melon.  It actually made the preparation easier.  I had to ask my mom, and she told me to steam the winter melon to soften it.  Honestly, I don't t...

Learning Mandarin, what method is best?

I studied in a sort of Chinese school for 13 years. So that "sort of' means, I SHOULD know how to speak basic Mandarin right? NOT QUITE!! I studied in a Chinese school where we only get less than an hour of Chinese class daily.  When you think about it, well - one hour a day, should be okay - but the problem is, at that time - it was pure memorization.  The books that we used, were those traditional books that I honestly have no idea what is written in them.  I see Chinese characters and they're just that - Chinese characters without meaning, nothing.  It was not practical if you ask me.  The words we were taught were not used in everyday conversation It was only during my 3rd or 4th year of high school that I realized how important knowing how to speak Chinese was.  It was during a trip to the Chinese border from Hong Kong that while I was going around the mall, I was having a hard time communicating with people who looked like me.  I wa...
