September 19, 2014 | Ringo
Being home base will also bring some disadvantages (Talking about food and watching weight here). I am just walks away from street foods as there are some neighbors of mine who use to sell them as part of their ways of earnings. I am also near sari-sari stores where fattening foods and drinks are near — one best example is instant coffee.

June 3, 2014 | RingoTweet
I believe in the saying “Men are Rice, Women are Sandwich,” idiomatically and literally. Women are softer, but harder to make while men are harder, but easier to cook. And since I belong to a group composed of both men … Read More
Sheila G’s Brownie Brittle Review
May 8, 2014 | Ringo
One thing I’ve proven, if you wanted for quality pay price. The desktop computer my sister brought us way back 2008 was worth P35,000.00. But, until now we are still using it and have only changed the hard disk. Same as to my shirts, the Divisoria-bought outfits are now used as “pambahay” or my house clothes while those branded with hundreds to thousands price still look good.

Ricoa Flat Tops – The slightly expensive kiddie thrills
December 27, 2013 | Ringo | One Comment
I never met a kid who hates sweet things. If one of them existed, I will invite them to my house and have some vegetable salad and paella. Just kidding! Anyway, sweet tooth among children is perfectly normal. Why? It is because they have more than 10,000 taste buds with majority are sensitive to sweetness. Also, there are findings that children, specially those who are breastfed, are getting used to the sweetness of the milk on a way that they looked for it until their toddler years. Cool, right?!
This same goes with my childhood. I am one of those kids who always crave for sugary bites. However, being the one with little money, I can only munch on those very cheap sweets.
Twist – The Strawberry and Chocolate Spread
December 20, 2013 | Ringo
Whenever I decided to buy some grocery, I will never forget to some for my nieces and dogs. I can forget my own supplies, but will never the treats for the cuties. I’m a very sweet uncle (Joking).
For my dogs, I usually buy canned products and bread sticks; for my two older nieces, I buy Pringles; and for Kahlen I love buying chocolate spreads because she’s a bread kid.
Her favorite is Goya or Nutella. But, whatever you got for her, she’ll always come jumping.
Brownies Unlimited at SM Fairview

The Display Of Brownies Unlimited, SM Fairview. Very Tempting!!!
Last week, despite that the planned dinner with my friends was cancelled, I still didn’t waste the opportunity of going out. Simply because going out for me is a rare opportunity (lol). I just took a stroll at SM Fairview instead of wasting my outfit.
That time, I don’t know why, I’m not hungry. So, I just walked around and opted to look for something interesting.
I then stumbled with this eye-popping stall that features brownies. Since, I love brownies, I easily gave in.
The name of the stall is Brownies Unlimited. Aside from brownies, there are also cupcakes and other pasties available.
