Tips: Carmina Way to Hang Laundry with Less Space

Summer in the Philippines we tend to change our clothes several times in a day. Our laundry will come around double since we have clothes to wash daily due to the humid weather. Carmina needed extra space to hang her clothes, towel and beddings.  Carmina decided to look the same corner laundry rod that she had a very long time. It is useful because you can easily move it when someone else occupies the room. Carmina was able to find a different version from  Linlee Mall  Online Shopee Philippines for 411.00 pesos ($7.34) not including shipping and handling.

Green Mango with Bagoong Recipe

Green mango can be a dessert or an appetizer where you can eat it alone or with different choices from what you feel like dipping your sour or sweet mango to your dish. Some people eat it with bagoong that comes in a bottle that is already premade to eat bought from the grocery store. Or you can eat it with salt if you are allergic to bagoong like me because it is made of fermented fish or shrimp paste which is called alamang cooked in salt and patis (fish sauce). Green Mango with Bagoong Recipe Ingredients: Green mango (sliced thinly) Salt or Bagoong Enjoy! There are some people who eat it while they are drinking beer with this kind of dish in the Philippines it all depends on you how or when you would like to eat it.

Kalderetang Kambing Recipe

During the time when my mom and I we're not living in the Philippines we went to a birthday party of her best friend in their  province  at that time they had served authentic Filipino dishes.  I remember my mom always told me as a kid not to eat everything at a party especially when you're traveling because you don't know what kind of meat they use other than beef, pork and chicken.
