the gift that was not

my son wanted to have this for christmasbut after reading some of the reviews - all of 'em negative - we decided to give him something else.

pink saturday :: playhouse

have a great weekend!

been tryin' to shed those unwanted fats i gained during my last pregnancy. need to do something to fit into my jeans again! so, what have i been doing to get rid of those flabs?

the moment i wake up (before i put on my make-up {heehee}- i love that song!), i prepare my alkaline fix - juice of 3 calamansi or half lemon in 1 liter of water (normal temp). i drink that while preparing my son's packed lunch, before taking coffee or any solid food.

i eat a really heavy breakfast. because i skip lunch. if i get hungry, that usually comes around 2 pm, i eat crackers or whatever we have for merienda. could be bread but usually root crops {sometimes, from the garden}, like, camote, cassava or gabi, or banana, and 1 cup of hot green tea or coffee.

at around 4-5pm, i play badminton with kuya for 30 mins or more. and as much as we can, we eat dinner before 6pm. i eat whatever is our viand with a half cup of rice. right after dinner, i drink a hot cup of ABS (bitter herbs) tea or lipton milk tea.

i'd like to believe that i'm getting positive results. because i was able to wear two of my smaller sized jeans already! yehey! but hey! i still need to fit into that size 26 much smaller sized jeans! (harhar...dream on!)

and oh! about the calamansi rind - i blend it with lotsa water. and use it for any of the following:

• *watering some of our potted plants
• *washing the dishes by mixing it to the dishwashing liquid
  
• *washing/rinsing my hair/body
  
• *and this, my favorite - for my footspa! i do that at night while watching. then, because my feet tend to get dry most of the time, i apply petroleum jelly just before going to bed.

chinese food

dad and i made a quick trip down the hill and had lunch here...

since it was just the two of us,

and i skip lunch most of the time,
i just ordered these...

yang chow fried ricedad said, this is better than mann-hann's yang chow

lemon chicken

i'd say fooyiu's is a lot better!

chicken feet
it's dad's favorite.
i do not eat chicken feet.
but when i tasted the sauce,
it's masarap!

i asked the waiter what's their specialty - seafood daw.
i took a picture.

dad and i were so curious
as to why the fish were positioned like that.
did you notice?
one fish on the left side and the rest on the right side.
ah... care to humor me and caption the last pic?
