NO STARCH DIET



My husband and i was not really on a diet just to loose weight. We are looking for some recipe's that has low-starch or no-starch at all the reason why because my husband has been suffering with ANKYLOSING SPONDYLITIS its a kind of severe arthritis that started when he got into a car accident in his 20's. His been on and off the diet cause i understand that its really hard to cut almost all food you love to eat.Now, I need to kinda "follow the diet" too in order to help him and not drag him to starchy foods that causes this arthristis to flare up. But when he is not around im eating the foods i need to for my baby as well. I pray that my husband can be disciplined and follow the strict diet.

Comfort Gel Shoes


These past couple of weeks my husband has been complaining about his feet. After work thats when he suffers the pain particularly on his heels. So, i bugged him to buy new shoes instead of buying things for me cause my husband sometimes tend to forgot himself just to take care of me (sweet hubby). Finally last night we got the best shoe for his feet that will give him comfort while working. Its a Comfort Gel shoes made by NUNN BUSH.

Good Parents, Bad Result

Science is providing proof of where Mom and Dad go wrong.

1.PARENTS FAIL AT SETTING LIMITS. Childrens who are showered with advantages are more likely to be depressed and anxious and to abuse drugs and alcohol than the norm.
2.THEY'RE OVERPROTECTIVE. Children realize that sometimes they will fail, make mistakes, have setbacks. When parents intercede, it communicates to the kid that " I dont think you're capable of dealing with it.'
3.THEY NAG,LECTURE.REPEAT.THEN YELL. Nagging gives children "negative reinforcement," or an incentive-parental attention to keep misbehaving.
4.THEY PRAISE TOO MUCH-AND BADLY. Children who were praised for being intelligent, rather than making a good effort,actually made less of an effort on tests and had a harder time dealing with failure.
5.THEY PUNISH TOO HARSHLY. "Punishment isnt just ineffective," it leads to avoidance and escape. It puts a little wedge in the relationship between parent and child.
6.THEY TELL THEIR CHILD HOW TO FEEL. Children need to think about how their own feelings will be affected by what they do, as well as the feeling of others.
7.THEY PUT GRADES AND SATS AHEAD OF CREATIVITY. The goal is not to have a child who knows how to answer question but one who will grow up to ask the important questions. Help your children to be open-minded.
8.THEY FORGET TO HAVE FUN. Those little signs of love and connection a laugh, a song shared in the car, are signs of health.

Sewing Machine



I have this Kenmore Sewing machine that my husband gave me last year cause he saw me sewing a lot of clothes by hand before. He told me he will get me a sewing machine so it will be easier for me but my problem is I have never use a sewing machine in my entire life before so, now im really disappointed whenever something will not work and had to read the manual over and over again just to make it right Its sooo Frustrating!!




Right now im working on my sewing machine cover to protect it from dust but again i cant get the inside thread to come out cause the upper thread is always stuck somewhere inside grr...

Airbrush Make-up


My bestfriend and I have been doing some online shopping for a make-up that will last long and gives a flawless blend on your face and neck for her upcoming wedding. We have found this particular one (in the pic) its an airbrush intro kit that we can try but unfortunately its not in our budget it cost $420 plus shipping.
We also tried looking for local place that do airbrush make-up but no one does it. I guess we are going to go ahead and make an appointment for the traditional make-up.
I dont wear make-up but on occasions like wedding having that airbrush kit will come in handy If i only have enough or extra money I will definitely purchase one, I think its worth it.

Streetfood


Grabe i miss this particular street food back home. Its been 2 and a half freaking year!!! that i havent had this food addiction of mine i can eat this 3 times a day. Yes im aware that its bad cause of the pollution it gets and being exposed to different kinds of virus especially the
sawsawan(dipping sauce) that other customer already used. But i love it.
I probably can make my own here but my husband will be grossed out and still different when the expert"manongs" will grill it for you yummm..

Bridesmaid

This coming August is my dear bestfriend's wedding. Im happy and very excited for her that finally she will walk down the aisle to marry her long time BF. My worry is Im having a hard time looking for my dress cause im gonna be 7months pregnant on her wedding with my baby bump and to think ill be in high heels! Im really praying that i can pull it off and still look nice at the wedding.
