Create Your Own Vietnamese Spring Roll

When you feel like eating something healthy and come in mind you feel like doing something more creative than eating an ordinary salad from a bowl or plate. I've got something to share with you.

Video Chat

I know a lot of people who lie about their real age. I have a co-worker who told me she is the same age as me. I went to look at her birth certificate she claimed they made a mistake. In reality she is one year older. I am not sure why she has to lie her real age. I only found out when one time she had a video chat with a stranger in Facebook dating. The guy who called, her up who she hasn't met yet said, he loved her and I had this question in my mind how can you say I love you to a person whom you've just called, up. He had told her how old he was which ten years age difference. She had told him her age I found out later she is one year older than me. She had told the guy he can be her son. I than tease her and called, her Ate (meaning older sister). She looked at me. I said, you are one year older than me why do you need to lie about your age. You should be happy when someone compliment about you looking younger than your age. There was another time the

Baptism in the Philippines

It has been a long time since I have attended a baptism and become a God Parent at the same time. What is the preparation before you have your baby's baptism? Birth Certificate of your daughter/son Reserve a date of the baptism Each Godparent there is a fee to pay at the church depends on the parish. Reserve the venue of the reception Know who your godparents will be and make sure you know they will be there to give the best guideness to your child as he/she grows up. In the Philippines people go all out when they plan a baptism they have a banner made up which I was able to design one for her. They also give our Baptism Party favors as their remembrance on that occasions. The baptism only took thirty minutes with short prayer, blessing the baby in holy water and lighting the candle. The process compared to the States is really different compare to the Philippines. The people don't really dress up for baptism in the Philippines.

Three Appliance Used to Cook A Meal

We have more than one item to cook our food in our home. We are not like any normal family who has an oven in their kitchen. We don't have an oven in our kitchen; we use other electric appliance to cook, roast, grill, fry, turbo, stir-fry and roll in one appliance called, Air fryer. This is the healthy living that removes all the fat and oil from the food. It comes with these other neat tools when you have purchase your own air fryer. For example: I buy my Australian hamburger at Shopwise Grocery Store when they have a BOGO sale. They run the price of PHP 500.00 ($10.00) for eighteen patties. They are not seasoned yet. I just sprinkle salt and black pepper on both side. I would defrost the meat and season them place they back on their individual wax paper place back in the freezer. Each hamburger patty is 15 minuites to be grilled. I stop it when it reaches to #8 than flip it and wait till there is #4 remaining and it is completely cooked. We don't like our
