POTATA Spicy Biscuit! Super Yummy

 Small, everyday things make my day wonder-filled! In our company, we have a tradition of sharing food. Every month, I purchase wholesale biscuits and put them in a box  for everyone to take.  it's like a first aid kit for hunger (lolz) and vice versa. They also bring finger foods and share them.

This RED POCKET biscuit I received this morning surprised me. I was expecting some type of biscuit, but it was delicious! It's like eating chips in biscuit form! It's not sweet, it's actually a bit spicy, but it's awesome! 

I honestly don't know where to buy, just in-case you see this red pocket biscuit in any grocery store in kuwait, GRAB one!! u'll thank me for sure....

Weekend at the Murooj- Phase 3 kuwait, one hot spot for Family to enjoy

 It's been awhile since my last visit to Murooj. Actually, my work location is just 5 minutes away from Murooj but I always forget to drop by or am too tired when I see cars lining up to get into the parking

A family hot spot in Kuwait, Murooj continues to grow and improve, now offering more coffee shops, restaurants, kids' play areas, a mini-zoo, rides, and more!

Kite Flying on the Weekend..Super Fun

On a typical FRIDAY after I officially open a small shop located in Hawally, I usually stay home or go out for breakfast with the family. Since I feel committed to completing all chores at home, I immediately go home.

I was overly stressed the previous days, and woke up on Friday just wanting to get out and breathe. My kids are also in need of some fresh space to explore and refresh their minds after exams and studies.

So early Friday morning, we bought some Filipino pack foods and headed to BNEIDAR to watch kite flying. It's in the middle of a desert, has no fees or anything like that. Just drive there, park your car, and have fun.

A super fun and inexpensive way to relax, eat, and enjoy the place over the weekend.

Horses and Yoga-- WEEKEND Thing to do

 


As someone who has worked in the equestrian industry for years, I have learned a lot about horses. They are loving, lovable, and gentle creatures. Although I cannot afford to own one, being a part of an industry where I can be of service to these beautiful creatures is more than enough for me!

It seems like a pretty interesting activity when I see it on my Instagram feed

Practicality at it's BEST!! VEGETABLE Bouquet

 I recently saw a post on Facebook. Nonetheless, I feel compelled to post it because creative thinking such as this deserves a place on my blog. In the ERA where poverty and hunger are at their highest.



The idea is both practical and healthy at the same time. It's better to give something healthy and consumable rather than flowers that will dry up in days or extra-sweet chocolate because WHY NOT?! I can only see a woman who appreciates this kind of gift as someone worth keeping. Whether this is someone independent with a motherly mindset is unknown to me. It is just my personal observation.

I love it!! more ONIONS for me!!! hahahahaahah

HEALTHY INSECT SNACK

 



My diet journey starts over, so I'm hoping I'll stick to it this time! I was on Google looking for healthy alternatives snacks and I found this site.... high protein insects as snacks, well, I have been to china and other Asian countries specially in Thailand, this is not something unusual for me. I tried it before but I have never eaten it as I normally eat chips and corn. I came from a poor household but this kind of delicacies was never introduced to us growing up.

my thoughts: It's a healthy alternative that would reduce the number of insects in the world. It'll taste good that's for sure like peanut or something... but consuming it like normal snack??? well, I still have to think about it, im cool for now!! how about you?? 



Simple Filipino BRUNCH at the CITY

It's been awhile since my last visit to kuwait City, after SOUK SAlmiya became a hot spot, Kuwait City has become less and less popular among Filipinos. I, for one, find it more convenient to go to SOUK whenever I crave Filipino food or anything Filipino.



My kids like Filipino foods. They are born in Kuwait and don't speak much of the Filipino language much but by heart, they are obsessed with Filipino food. Yesterday, we headed to Kuwait City for BRUNCH. I wanted traditional Filipino breakfast dishes like TAPSILOG ( Fried Marinated Beef, Rice, Egg), Tocilog ( Sweet Marinated Chicken Egg and Rice), and soup.







As we arrived in UTC, the first floor area where the famous HALO-HALO is located, we were greeted by so many filipino servers who invited us to dine in their designated resto. We chose to dine in BARRIO FIESTA simply because the name itself sounds very filipino. A lady in dress (hahahaha) gave us a colorful laminated menu, after we ordered, I slowly observed the place. I can't believe nothing has changed. There are more shops but fewer people, the service is fast. Our food was ready in a few minutes and it tasted the way we wanted!! it suppppperrr YUM!!! the price is so reasonable, I think we paid, 10KD for the entire order good for 5 people

We were so hungry I totally forgot to take good photos haahahahah..... sooo sorry,  but anyhow, it's always fun to visit Kuwait City every once in a while. I think it's better now than before because there are fewer people, it's a pleasant experience.

Sudden Amnesia? Have u Experience it??

For some REASON, I just feel very weird today,  Early morning I started doing my usual home chores that includes the laundry, I put on the dirty clothes into our automatic washer, then proceeded to do other things, in 20 minutes time…I suddenly remember, I did not put the laundry soap and fabric softener so I went back to the laundry room, turn the machine off  and fill the soap and softener press the start button  and leave,  I then standing  right outside of the laundry room thinking what should I do  NEXT, I’m in total block-out like a sudden AMESIA!!,  I walked slowly into the kitchen turn on the kettle for hot water, still thinking what was am doing  before, in an unconscious effort, I proceeded to make my coffee walked towards the living room with the mug of coffee in my hand, I stopped right in front of the TV looking at the video of streetfoods played thru youtube, I then sip the coffee and got surprised how the hell I made the coffee!!!  By then, in my mind, I might be in some kind of spell or something, It was crazy!!!! It scared me to death!! I went running to the bathroom as I am almost late for work, a warm bath as always makes me feel calm, as I went out after a  shower, it appears to me the things I’ve done the entire morning, by which, I also remember that the vacuum is still in the living room!! with 20mins time limit, I have to fix all and get myself ready... 

As I was sitting in my desk, I came to realized that when I am STRESSED and caught with so many things in mind, it creates chaos in my navigating system,  instead of doing one at a time, it distracted me from doing the right thing and block out from reality, my worst experience once, is shopping and forgot my k-net pin, all these that is happening to me bothers me so I talk to a professional as I feel that it is something I have to consult with and I was told that stress is one of many reason why we have that GAP, we think too much that our body and mind do not synch, STRESS and OVERTHINKING can caused many health problems and accidents. even caused, DEATH to many.

That is why it is recommended that every once in a while we have to seat back, do meditations, rest, read good books, do things that we like  that makes us calm and stress-free, don’t let stress conquer our well-being. MONEY is not everything!! it's HEALTH!!

I always remind my staff and co-workers that HEALTH is very important, work can replaced us anytime if we do not function the way they want, so  take care of your overall health!!!  Prioritize your health above all things!
