New Blogger App for IPHONE works with IPAD2!

It looks like I'll be blogging more frequently because of the availability of the new IPHONE App for Blogger. Guess what, it works for the IPAD2 too! Now it will be more convenient than ever to harness the power of social media right in the comforts of your apple device. Google finally gave in to the demand of this other OS but probably will stir the feathers of android loyalists. Will this mean a lot more applications from android will switch to this more commercial one?!

Why in the world did it take so long for them to do this?! Will they keep it simple like now or will they have more features in the future so they can battle it out with the paid apps that already have existed in in the Apple Store?!

I'm sure those paid apps are beggining to feel the impact on their sales anytime soon! capisce?! :)

Just search the app store for Blogger and this will show up as onenof the choices.. Best of all it's free! :)

Starting Up Businesses

In this day and age it is so hard to put up your own company let alone expand because of economic times but it is essential for growth. Making your products and services available in a larger area essentially would need manpower and logistics. That can cost a lot; but how can we make it affordable for everyone without breaking the bank?! That's one hard question to answer for any economic expert but there are people that can help to make that happen. If they succeed expanding and making your institution grow your, return of investment is simply going to be a reality. If you reach a wider audience and the products or services are good then there is no reason why your business wouldn't flourish. Some would even suggest getting involved in the global market; why not! Maybe startup incorporation is the answer.

Naturally there are certain factors to be considered but with a trustworthy counterpart in all these locations; it's a great thing to start with at any point. In this fast changing world we always wish for the good life. We can only do that if we invest with the right people and do it with the best decisions that we can make at that time. It should be done with a lot of planning. We also should expect to perform a lot of improvements in the business if problems occur. Success is inevitable and in the long run it will be best for any business that requires geographic locations involved people and services that you can honestly give your name to. The brand would stand if you get the best people to work for you but it doesn't necessarily have to be costly. Find a partner to start the ball running for you and not against you. Get someone who knows what they do and you'll make better choices professionally for your business. It's a good thing!

There's Chicken... Then There's BONCHON!

BONCHON Drumsticks, there's even a spicy version of it! Yum!

I was there! I witnessed something spectacular each time they laid down a couple of baskets of these hot, crispy chicken. There were ooohs and ahhhs everytime we took a bite of this Soy Garlic Goodness known the world over! One name has been critically acclaimed and dubbed Best Chicken in America; that's BONCHON!

BONCHON Chicken Wings were to die for! You should get a ton of these!

Secret Recipes passed on from generation to generation, this best kept family secret from Korea landed in New York first before it arrived in the shores of the Philippines. It didn't surprise me that each time I visit their Eastwood store I see a throng of people ordering these famous drumsticks and wings!

BONCHON also has Calamares! It's kimchi mayo sauce just spices up the whole experience!

There's variety in their menu, imagine this huge serving of Calamares only costs 125.00! To have this together with local and international beers is a deal breaker! That is just the perfect pair!

BONCHON Beef Bulgogi Rice Box

The BONCHON Beef Bulgogi Rice Box just fits the bill. It's sweet-salty taste would take you to that next level of Korean experience. We loved it so much only the a few grains of rice stand witness to how fast this was finished! If you want take outs for the office or school this would be my recommendation! Aside from the chicken of course! :)

BONCHON Fish Tacos Meal!

It doesn't end there! If you want other things than beef or chicken, they have fish options that are quite healthy because it comes with Kimchi Coleslaw. The breaded cream dory hugged inside these wraps and the hot slaw was great! I'll try and get my Mom some of these soon!

BONCHON Ginger Tofu Salad

For vegetarians, you should get this for starters. The veggies, tofu plus the sauce was a nice and lovely. It was sweet and a bit tangy. It was really nice! You can add a couple of bucks to make this together with chicken pieces! Yummy!

Cool tall glass of Iced Tea!

Iced Tea served in Tall glasses definitely did the job washing down the heat from those awesome wings. Then after that you'll have to order another serving; which means a couple more baskets. If you are from Makati try the Ayala Triangle Branch. I'm telling you the Ayala Triangle branch is LOVE! The Eastwood and newly opened Katipunan branch too!

Now if you were asking about what happened to the 4 baskets of BONCHON chicken we had on the table..

This is what happened! :)
Isn't it very Filipino to leave just one piece on the table?! LOL

These were the culprits! We ate it all! Thanks for the group hug Magic!

More things are planned to come on the menu for BONCHON this October! So watch out for that! Guys and gals remember they have beer in store so if you want to celebrate something after office hours please drop by. I recommend all their Chicken products, they are to die for! They know the real selling point is their chicken, please get the spicy versions of it which I love! Their special sauce and glaze is imported from Korea every week so you know you are getting the AUTHENTIC one.

I'm sure there's one near you so go to your favorite BON CHON outlets and get your hands on the number 1 chicken in America and find out why it's the best! After all, it's The New York Times, GQ and Esquire who said that! If that ain't gonna convince you I don't know what will! :)

Cleanse, Detoxify, Rejuvenate, and Balance with My Spa Diet!

For most of us BIG people there are several things that we don't attempt to do. One, because we would probably feel humiliated and two, we already know why. On this day however I was surprised to be asked to do it, but I gave it a go so I can do something about it. It's one of those nightmares that you try and fight for. You know what it is?!

Tadaaaa! :) I got my weight measured! Haha!

Just like me thousands of Filipinos are actually overweight and living a healthy life is really not one of their priorities because they are either too busy because of work or too lazy to work out and have a proper diet. We are not alone, even Ms. Cheshire Que - a spa diet expert, RND, RD, RN went through the same dilemma. On this day, she reveals a program that helped her overcome this and calls it My Spa Diet.

Lose weight, Rejuvenate with MySpaDiet.com

She started by telling us an anecdote about her folks, their current state and how she got heredity, history play in getting that condition. Just like them, everybody's got a weight gain story. Weight management is such a hard thing to achieve if you don't know what you are doing. She however also had hormone problems because of her thyroid condition. She made a point that a high fat high sodium low fiber diet exists all around us. Technology has also made us all lazy and gain weight because of the lack of physical activity. In this sense, "Lifestyle modification" is essential and there are three things to do in order to accomplish this. Fixing our Diet, exercise and behavior. That is where myspadiet.com comes in.

We got out BMI measured and she took the time explaining to us what the numbers mean. I was particularly surprised about how big my numbers were since it'll be a basis for what will cause heart problems and diabetes in the future.

If you go to the site it highlights the essential tools of the myspadiet program she designed. Week one is cleanse, two is detoxify, three is rejuvenate and four balance. The phases need you to do the following: High fiber and water, no red meat and processed food, featured fruits and vegetable everyday, all foods allowed but in moderation.

It caters to men and women; they ask you for your daily physical activity and give you an image of your food allowance. They have it represented in numbers and you shouldn't eat beyond six hours so you wont starve. It is all about meal timing. If you prefer a different diet then you can always substitute just as long as it satisfies your numbers. The menu plans in the site has varieties and you can see practical comparisons with real life things so you can measure whatever you eat with something usual. It is very important to eat something ALWAYS in moderation. You need to also move a lot, exercise and do something active. There are studies in Japan that if you do exercise and do something all in 30 mins, that would account to more in a week and would be beneficial for your health. It also depends on the intensity so make sure you do work out with that in mind. We need to make sure we replenish with water right after so we don't dry up and age because of lack of hydration. The fourth week would get your food intake to a disciplined mode but you must make sure you get everything in tolerable portions and do not eat mindlessly. That's where most people fail and perform a yoyo diet.

Behavior change is essential and you need guidance from experts which is also available on the site. Lifestyle is a modification is a process and need something that would also motivate the mind. If you are not disciplined and motivated to do these things, that causes it to fail.

So the next time you go out and buy something in the grocery, include something that is from the fresh produce department. The site also suggests and recommends a list that you can take along when you buy something. It's a good thing... make sure you visit the site myspadiet.com.

Easy Pha-Max

Grace of Easy Pha-Max gave a small info about wheat grass and its benefits. People in the US specially those in LA have been eating this since time and memorial and with its availability in Malaysia; it now comes to the Philippines. This is essential to cleansing and alkalinity which is one f the goals of myspadiet.com for the first and second week. This should be taken cold and we were also advised to shake it well since it has to have the nutrients also mixed in. They only use the grass but not the roots. Although the anti aging and cancer preventing minerals are in the roots it has the essentials already in the drink. It is also recommended to be taken daily for detoxifying and if we have a lot of unhealthy food eaten this is a must. It helps in cleaning the colon and prevents chronic constipation. Did you know that we have to go to the comfort room twice a day to actually keep it healthy? I'm sure most if you only do it once so don't lie haha :)

It's for thorough cleansing. You and I know that we need it! You know what to do! :)
