Want to restore a 40-year-old decoration to its former glory? Try these simple, safe cleaning tricks that won’t damage the finish.

Have you ever seen a decoration your parents kept, carrying it with them from another country or a previous marriage? Carmina realized that parents often hold onto items they've purchased in the past. While browsing Greenhill's shopping center, she stepped into  Mystic Gems by Bensani and saw so many nostalgic items that reminded her of growing up.  I pointed out to Mom Violy that she had a similar crystal tree decoration at home.

Carmina's Review on Bamba Buns Fried Chicken

Carmina decided to try their Set of 3 where you can decide what types of chicken sandwiches you would like to try. We had placed an order for 2 Kansas BBQ one had no sauce and vegetables, the other one no pickles and 1 Basic B with no pickles. We decided to get Triple-Cooked Fries for our sides.

I hope they can change it because I wouldn't mind trying their other fo...

Carmina's Review on Healthy Choice Barlico Coffee Substitute made in Egypt

We substitute ourselves when we feel there is something to replace and try something new. Carmina decided to try Barilico that is made of barley and chicory. Barlico has four different coffees to pick from the following: Barlico Cappuccino for PHP 166.00 includes 10 sachets Barlico Coffee Substitute for PHP 125.00 includes 12 sachets. Barlico Hazelnut Coffee Substitute with Barley, Chicory and Foam Creamer for PHP 183.00 includes 10 sachets.
