Starbucks 2014 Drinks and Healthy Food Items!

I fell in love with the Asian Dolce Latte when it was introduced to us March last year.  Being a fan of milk, this was the perfect mix of coffee and milk!  I loved the taste (because I'm a huge fan of milk!) and I'm so happy that its back!  PLUS, it now it has a frappuccino version!  Now, there's another way to drink the Asian Dolce Latte!  Yeyness!

Latte, Iced and Frappuccino

Along with this, Starbucks is also introducing a new drink - the Chestnut Macchiato.  It has the flavor of roasted chestnuts with the signature macchiato recipe of Starbucks.

To usher in the new year, Starbucks is offering the healthier alternative!  I was surprised to see oatmeal, veggie sticks and my favorite couscous in the menu!  Here's a preview:


Veggie Sticks with Blue Cheese Dressing (P110.00)



Couscous Salad with Smoked Tuna Spread and Bagel Chips (P150.00)
This is my FAVORITE!! :) Love love the couscous and the smoked tuna spread!

The Perfect Oatmeal (P85.00)
This was really good - and that is coming from a person who dislikes oatmeal! 

Its wonderful that Starbucks is giving us a healthier option when it comes to food.  Now we can enjoy more their food without the guilt!  I'm also happy to see that the number of calories are indicated in the label - this a good move of Starbucks to educate and inform customers of how much calories they are taking in.

Happy drinking and healthy eating!!

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...
