Manicure and Pedicure – The Filipino School Mom’s Busy Day– Philippine P...

Being a Filipino Mom, it can be a little different than a US
Mom when it comes to school. In the Philippines, there are no buses that you
can put your kids on to go to school. There are usually no cafeterias that the
kids go to lunch at as a class. This means that a lot of Filipino Moms (or the
helpers) spend their time at or near the school while the kids are there. I
guess this is more common for the younger children at least. They often time
spend the day in special waiting areas the school has provided them to wait in.
Others find nearby locations to spend their time at.

Today, while waiting on the kids to get out of school, I
happened to experience why these Moms have such a hectic and busy day. I
arrived to find a lady giving manicures and pedicures while the Moms waited for
their children to come out of school. Not wanting to seem like I was not
working, I too got a manicure and pedicure while enjoying the tsismis (Filipino
for gossip) going around!

Ang Sarap – Marisa’s Special Lomi! - Philippine Province Living

Lomi is a Filipino dish similar to the southern US chicken
dumplings sort of. Lomi is made with a variety of thick fresh egg noodles of about a quarter inch in
diameter. Other ingredients added are pork or chicken (liver is the most
popular), green beans, peppers and eggs.

Lomi is best eaten while steaming hot. It is a challenge to finish eating it all before the bowl gets cold. To spice up the taste, depending on one's preference, a mixture of soy sauce, kalamansi juice and crushed red chili peppers.

And the Beat Goes On! The Purchase of a New Drum Set- Philippine Provinc...

We purchased a new drum set from West Coast Music Center
& Services in Cauayan. It did not take long for the boys to start picking
out a beat. Sammy watched two Youtube videos and found a beginners rhythm he
could follow. Matthew was quick to pick up that beat as well. Time can only
tell if we have made a good choice here!
