Happy Mother's Day

I woke up this morning by the sound of our phone ringing. When I checked the number it was a local number so I answered it. The lady on the other end asked me where is our place located because she has a delivery for me. I told her our apartment's location and how she can enter at the gate. In a few minutes she was knocking at our door. I opened the door and she had a hand full of this:

Hubby surprised me with this beautiful gifts. I am so touched of his thoughtfulness. I did not expect he will pull out something because they are very busy in Iraq and I don't want him to bother. After couple of hours he called and I thanked him right away. He said, he just want to thank me for being supportive, a great wife and Mom to our DD. I can't contain my happiness for his appreciation. He is wonderful and I love him very much.

My Parent's Vow Renewal

Planning a wedding is very daunting. There are so many things you need to consider. My parents 5oth wedding anniversary is approaching, June, and they will have renewal of their vows but this will be held in December. I am glad my sisters are all doing most of the planning. They only told me what I need to do or get, of course with the specifications. The last time I called they said that I have to check out here if I can find a nice gold Wedding Invitations. Since it's my parents 50th so the motif is gold. I found this 1st-class-wedding-invitations.com, a website that sells beautiful wedding invitations. I really have to follow the color scheme or else my siblings will not talk to me for a week. Anyways, I checked out the website and saw this one below:

It is very simply, translucent white and gold with two white pearl daisies, very elegant. I love its simplicity and I believe this suits my parents. When I was checking out the invitations, I was able to look at its intricate design because the website has the zooming capability. When you hover the mouse to the invitation it will enlarged and you will see the details of the invitation. I like it because it will let you see how your finished Wedding Invitations looked like. I am sending the sample to my sis if this is okay with them, because if they ask me I would definitely go for this one.

Volunteering

Have you experienced volunteering? I did. When I first came here in the US I can't get work yet because I don't have the work permit yet. What I did was volunteer at the American Red Cross in my husband's previous post. I worked as receptionist/Office Assistant in the ARC office. I was working there for 5 months. Then every Thursday I will go with my friend to volunteer at the Thrift Shop inside the post as well. It was a good experience. When I wrote my resume to apply for a job I wrote my experience as a reference. I was really glad I did because my employer who hired me was able to call somebody in reference to my working attitude. If I have enough time here and I don't have a demanding Mommy job, I don't mind volunteering again.

Fulfillment Services Company

I work in retail for almost 2 years. I climb up from being a part time associate then became member of the management team as one of the Assistant Store Managers. Every year our company directs us to do the yearly inventory of stocks and it is very tiring. We have to be in the store very early in the morning before the stores open for the inventory and some of us will have to stay longer especially if the task is not done yet. I was wondering why not hire a company that takes merchandise inventory in stock as well as warehouse to speed up the process and cut on overhead cost. There is one company that does these services; it's the los angeles fulfillment services company or AMS Fulfillment.

This Fulfillment Services Company is a third party company that offers an attractive package to speed up as well as cost cut businesses expenses on doing merchandise inventory, warehousing, shipping and fulfillment services. For inventory, instead of the associates and managers doing the overtime, they can be hired to do it. They do the job faster and offer OnGuard Inventory Protection™, a tool to protect total inventory management and product fulfillment precision.

Also, if your business have problem with product shipping and handling, say there are lots of reported damages of merchandise during shipment, you need to change shipping company. Again, you can hire los angeles fulfillment services company or AMS. They have excellent solutions for all modes or shipping process such as from business to business, business to consumers, pick and pack, product fulfillment and distribution, warehouse assembly, and many others. Their objective is to ensure that their clients will be protected from losses and damages. So if you need this type of services, hire AMS Fulfillment. Their website is amsfulfillment.com.

Jollibee

I am watching TFC right now and I saw the Jollibee commercial. How I miss eating the chicken joy. My sister told me that in our town a Jollibee franchise was opened. I don't know why but it made me drool looking at this picture below. I wish I can get something like this around here.

Memory Upgrade

My husband brought my laptop to Iraq and he told me that it is doing good but sometimes very slow especially if he opens a lot of sites. I was telling him that I need a new laptop because it's already old, 5 years of service. When I get a new I am planning to give the old one to my sister but hubby will have to reprogram it as well as do memory upgrade. He was meaning to do it before he went for deployment but he dis not have enough time. Hopefully when he gets back here he will be able to do so.

When I was working in a home decor store I saw a lot of designs in fabrics either in textiles such as used in curtain, beddings, table cloths, runners, etc. More often I only saw leather in the furniture upholstery that we have. Some of the designers who comes in the store will ask me if we have furniture with designer upholstery fabric that can be used in an elegant room. If I have known designdivafabrics.com before I would recommend this to them. At Design Diva Fabrics they bring to customers elegant and unique, one of a kind designer fabrics at an affordable price.

Fiesta Menudo

Menudo a la Bless :-)

In my previous post, Cooking, I was saying that I will cook menudo. I was inspired by Kris Aquino when she cooked at Boy & Kris talk show. This dish is very common during fiesta celebrations in the Philippines. So I did cooked it for dinner and it tastes yummy. I was glad the veggies are not over cooked. I only used eyeballing with my ingredients.

Ingredients I used:

Pork, carrots, potato, green peas, red and green bell peppers, garlic, onion, soy sauce, tomato sauce, tomato paste, sugar, rice vinegar, water, pepper and salt to taste.

Online Pharmacy

In December last year we went to the pharmacy to get my prescription medicine after I had teeth extraction. Hubby went inside the pharmacy and me and our DD waited inside the car. I didn't know that we will be waiting for almost an hour. I had been calling hubby because I really wanted to go home and he kept telling me that there was a long line at the pharmacy. It is very irritating that you need to wait that long to get your prescription. This is why I was thinking if I will get my prescription next time I will go for an online pharmacy like edrugstore.md.

Edrugstore.md is the leading online pharmacy that only sells online prescriptions or medicines that are authentic, safe and FDA-approved that safeguards customer's health. They have the safe, secure, private, and convenient way to buy your prescriptions. They have US licensed pharmacists and physicians that take care in dispensing prescriptions. They also offer online free medical consultations since they have physicians that can answer any questions. They also have the most competitive pricing in all their online prescriptions and quick shipping. After ordering for the first time, your refills will have $20 off. So don't go to the hassle of waiting for long lines, get your prescriptions at this online pharmacy.

Annoying Phone Calls

Early this morning I woke up by a phone ringing. I was disoriented a little bit that I didn't know where to get the phone at. Good thing it did not wake up our DD. When I checked on the caller id the number didn't register but it says it's from Florida. I have friends in Florida but their numbers is registered in phone. I answered it then there was a hello at the other end and then she hanged up. The phone rung 3 times it annoyed me. I guess it's one of those days you are bombarded with calls selling you something.

Halloween Costume

I know it's not yet November but I am thinking of costume already. Our daughter "R" told us last Halloween that this year she wanted to wear a cheerleader costume. She likes a pink and black Halloween costume. I was browsing online and this costume website, incostume.com has Playboy costumes and I saw a cute cheerleader costume. It is very cute that I thought of getting it for her. It is not revealing at all and I like the color combination. I saw one that I don't mind having for myself too. There are a lot of nice costumes there. If you need one, you can check it out too.

Dry Skin

I am having a problem right now with my dry skin. This is what I noticed after I gave birth. I have been trying to use different creams and lotions but still it's dry. During the winter time it became worst since I have winter rash because of the cold temperature. Everytime I go out and my body felt the coldness, it will develop into a reddish rash. Does any of you have experience the skin dryness? What lotion can you recommend? :-)

Where to this Summer?

I was asking my cousin from UK if they have a plan for a summer vacation. I ask her if they want to come over here in the USA so we can go to California and go visit Disneyland to which the kids may love. They can check out flights to USA cheaper at dialaflight.com. They have packages that will enable them to make savings for their visit. Right now they have listings of beautiful places that they can look at. She said that she has to look into it. I am asking her because I really want to go to California too and visit places there. We have relatives that lives there and I am sure that they will be very happy to tour as around if we get there.

Cooking

Having to live here in the US teaches me a lot of things. I am now gutsy to try things that if I am in the Philippines I will not normally do. Just like in cooking, I am really trying my best to make a dish that I haven't cook before. Yesterday I was watching Boy & Kris, a morning talk show in the Philippines, and Kris Aquino was cooking pork menudo. I am going to try cooking it tonight. Although I cooked it before but it does not taste good. I think I put too much tomato sauce in it. The technique accordingly is to put the tomato sauce slowly because as they said it is easy to add ingredients than to take out. Once you put more you can't do anything about it. So this time, I will try to cook it we'll see if I do it good :-)
