Lalaki

Lalaki ang tema sa Litratong Pinoy para sa araw ng ito.

Ilang mga lalaking kasama sa Unilab Run United 1 2012 ang aming nakita nung kami ay pauwi na matapos sumali sa 3k run ng naturang takbuhan. Hindi ako sigurado kung ano ang category nila baka 21k kasi mukhang dilaw ang kanilang race bib.

Narito ang aming kwento sa aming tila ba napakalayong tinakbong 3k category, haha!

Tanned

Summer is here! Though we have been experiencing an allergy-inducing few days this week because of the drizzles and cloudy weather, summer is definitely here. The neighborhood pool almost always has people swimming. I’ve been seeing tanned skin these days and I think the tan is more from beach bumming than spray on tan.

Run United 1 2012

We spotted these guys who are running in a run we went to last week. We were on our way home because we only participated in the 3k category and I think these guys are from the 21k. They look tanned,  right? I hope they put on sun block before they ran.

Living Food

I never thought raw or living food would taste good.

Yesterday, our friend Fristine had a talk and demo about the benefit of eating “living food” or raw food. The photo below shows raw salad with mung bean sprouts, radish, carrots and wing bean or sigarilyas while the other one is raw pasta composed of coconut strips with pesto sauce.

We had a lot of questions and I know we still have a lot to learn and understand about the benefits of eating more greens and living food.

For one, Fris has lost a lot of weight! I am sure the living food that she eats was a very big help to how she has lost weight without having to worry about oxyelite pro side effects.

 

Calamansi Love

I harvested, well sorta harvested, today several green juicy and definitely sour calamansi. Will post a better and higher res photo later. Click here for a link on the photo. Here is a photo of the sour babies:

These have thin skin (dunno what they’re called) and very juicy.

Rains and used coffee grounds are two big help that had the little tree bear these little babies. Sunshine helped the little tree too of course. Everyday, I mix the used coffee grounds in water for “watering” the two little calamansi plants (the other one didn’t yield more than three of these) and the other potted plants. Still have to get photos of these pandan plants and green onions.

Yes, you can get a lot of benefits from used coffee grounds for your vegetable garden. And if you have a catering biz and Caterer Jobs, having your own vegetable garden will help you save some on your expenses to up your profit. #JustSayin’

Get used coffee grounds for free from a Starbucks near you.

Just one of the benefits of being REAL coffee drinkers. We stopped drinking instant coffee a long time ago and only have brewed coffee in the mornings and sometimes as night cap too.

 

For Real

For the nth time, I’m telling myself I should go on a diet because of a rather unpleasant happening this afternoon.

“That” was the last straw that broke the camel’s, errr, I mean MY back. Sorry, too embarrassing to tell.

I’ve been lazy for the past few months. Even I sometimes get tired of being too tired to do anything. Day after day I’d tell myself, “put on those shoes, groove to the dance moves you almost perfected last summer, start hooping once again and stop sitting down doing nothing the whole day.”

Should I start only when I feel faint due to lack of air and exercise? Should I start when I need to have bioidentical hormone replacement therapy?

I’m turning a new leaf starting tomorrow, not for vanity’s sake but for my health. For real.
