I know it may sound cheesy and corny because some people would quip that everyday should be a Valentine’s Day. Still, wouldn’t it be great to consider this day as more special than your daily dose of feeling that loving feeling?

It seems that the gifting of flowers and other Valentine day-related gifts is getting lost in the technological advantage of sending (free) greeting cards, emails, videos and what-not. This is true since almost everyone has an email account, a social networking account and even their own blogs.

To those who are not here in the Philippines, you can surprise your loved ones when you Send Gifts to the Philippines. Teddy bears? Pendants? Bouquet of fresh flowers? You can choose whatever it is your loved ones will enjoy.

Deliver Flowers to the Philippines? Receiving fresh flowers is a happy moment that every woman and moms too, love to experience every now and then.

If you are concerned about your budget, you can avail of the 10% discount if you use the discount code VDAY022010 valid until February 20, 2010. That in itself is a gift too

Choose your gifts and show your love just in time for Valentine’s Day

The kids were made to dig for worms in compost pits. Ewww, I know but these worms are necessary to keep the garden in great shape. In fact, one can purchase these worms in gardening stores.

I looked up videos online to see how composting is done. I also came upon an interesting compost tumbler for composting.

Now, if you have a small space for a compost pit, here was what the lecturer told us: get pots (preferably clay pots) with a little garden soil in it. Put fruit and vegetable peelings, leftover food, dried leaves on top of the soil and cover with soil. Do this over and over until the soil and the other filings are mixed.

A good compost helps in fertilizing the soil to make the garden healthy. If you have a Starbucks branch near you, ask for free used coffee grounds for your garden.

Hayaan nyo na aking ipakita,

larawang iginuhit isang Linggo ng umaga.

Ako’y nagulat at namangha,

aba ano ito, at mukhang napakaganda!

Marunong yata ang batang paslit,

ang kanyang kamay para sa pagguhit.

Ama at ina tunay na masaya,

at ang bata naman malaki ang tuwa.

Si Bunso ay nag-7yo nung Disyembre.

Anyway, here is the list of anniversary symbols.

For someone practical like me, I have no need for fancy things because I know what I need: fitness equipment!

I’m serious.

Balak ko simulan muli ang aking nasirang backyard garden.

Bakit ika nyo? kasi naghihinayang ako bumili ng tanglad (lemongrass) tuwing magluluto kami ng tinola at tahong na may sabaw. Pati na ring tuwing iinum kami ng pinakuluang tubig na may dahon nito, tipong tsaa, lalagyan na lang ng honey at mint leaves (may tanim din ako nito pero namatay din) para manamis-namis.

Ang basil na mabango ihalo sa ulam at masarap din sa pasta, wala na.

Miss ko na din ang aking mga okra at ampalaya.

Kelan kaya magkakatotoo ang balak ko na ito? Sana malapit na, kahit na tagtuyo pa naman o El Nino ang darating na summer.
