Katrina Halili 3months Pregnant

Wow! It's been so long that I was able to post about showbiz in this blog. My post here is always about my Orange Tuesdays meme. But since I am trying to be active in all of my blogs am now back to update this blog in no particular topic. Just a random thought about anything and everything under the shining sun (that's my title blog anyway- my randomness). Showbiz, Memes, Current event and the likes.

Have you heard the latest news about Kartina Halili? she's pregnant! Yup. She is 3months pregnant at age 26 and confirm it to Ricky Lo during her interview at Startalk just today March 24. The father is her boyfriend Kris Lawrence (I thought they broke up). Though Kris is taking full responsibility of Katrina's pregnacy, getting married is out of their plan. 

I salute Katrina for being honest about her pregnancy and not afraid to lost her job at Beloved. Baby is always been a blessing to everyone. Good luck to her pregnancy.

Orange Tuesdays 40th Edition

Welcome to Orange Tuesdays 40th Edition

Hello everyone! welcome to another round of Orange Tuesdays! I am happy that OT has reach this far, we're on the 40th edition! Yehey! thanks to all who join me here every Tuesdays.. I know I've been a lousy host for the past 2 months for always posting this late. Blame it to so much multi-tasking! from raising a baby as single mom, work offline for 8-12hours a day, online task and all,  plus attend to my small business (direct selling) and have to give time to be with friends is sometimes quite tough managing them all and this leave my blog a last priority. So please bear with me for always posting OT late.

Anyway, my share for this week is one of my favorite food. Prawn! yummy!

Thanks for playing! :)

Orange Tuesdays 39th Edition

Welcome to Orange Tuesdays 39th Edition!

The heat is on! welcome summer in my tropical country and during this time kids are prone so sickness like runny nose, diarrhea, sore eyes, skin disease and the likes. I remember last year Iris has this apok-apok (skin disease). I think that was the most disheartening that happen to Iris. Seeing her suffering the itchiness and pain everytime we shower her makes me want to cry  also. So now I see it that she gets all the protection of any diseases. I always give her vitamin C and let her drink plenty of water.

By the way, hope you'll LIKE Orange Tuesdays Facebook Fan Page in my upper left side of this blog. Thank you! thank you! Will surely return the favor..

Happy Orange-y day! :)

Blogging and Website Making

image not mine

Blogging is one of the things that keep me sane. I always say that and will always be saying that over and over. The first time I blog was in 2008 but after 3-5months I was inactive due to my offline life. My main reason that time is to show to my then BF how much I love him (wow cheesy!) also to express myself, develop my English and to journal just anything about my life. Monetizing was out of the picture that time. Until I become a mom-single mom. I was looking for an extra income and my HS friend told me that I can actually earn online and that blogging is one of the options. Now I am here.

..but monetizing your blog is not that easy especially to someone like me whose not so techie. I had hard time understanding HTML, domain, hosting and the likes. Being a blogger user I thought that was it. I don't even understand bandwidth, cPanel etc. One of my blogger friend told me that if I want to level up and to really monetize my blog it's advantage to have my own domain. What's that? good thing I have online friends who help me build my website. Of course Mr.G is so helpful and I ask him on how to make a website. You just have a long patience to understand all the tutorial available online. If you had hard time understanding what you read, there is also video tutorial which for me is easier to understand.

If your planning to make a website I suggest that you first try those free blog platform (blogger, tumbler, wordpress) just know the basic and if your a little comfortable you can level up in buying your own domain and still hosted by wordpress and blogger and level up again by transferring your domain as self hosted. I have now 5 blogs and 3 of them is self hosted and 2 is still hosted by blogger.I can say, I am blogging happily now. 

Orange Foodie

I love Orange Tuesdays because it is a great way to share fun photos of anything and everything orange, from a funky orange notebook and matching pen, to a fresh orange fruit salad. If you would like to contribute to my Orange Tuesdays blog, then feel free to have a look at some of the photos which have been posted already.

Anything which is orange will be welcomed to the blog. So if you have a really funky retro style orange padded mouse mat, which you find really comfortable on your wrist, even after being on the computer for an hour or so doing some research or just playing Cheekybingo, or you have a bright Orange hat which you love, then take a photo and share it on the blog! If you don't own anything orange then why not make an orange and rocket salad and send it in to us? Here are two great orange recipes which you are welcome to try out and send into us.

Orange and salmon salad

1. Toss together some rocket leaves, 1 grated carrot, 1 orange pepper and the zest of an orange.

2. Bake the salmon fillet in the oven until it is soft and squeeze over some lime or lemon juice to give the fish an extra tang.

3. Place the salmon on the bed of salad and crumble some feta cheese over the top.

4. Serve with a glass of orange juice - of course!

  

Orange Sorbet

1. In a heavy pan, combine 3 cups of orange juice, 1 cup of sugar and 2 star anise and bring to the boil. Then remove the star anise.

2. Allow the mixture to cool and pour it into an ice cream maker and place in the freezer. If you don't have an ice cream maker, simply pour the sorbet mix into a freezable container and place it in the freezer. Once it has set, stir the mixture every hour to get rid of ice crystals.

Sisig and Beer

This will be my first time to join Food Trip Friday. Just looking all the linky photos at FTF it makes me drool!..yum..yum..

So, for my first entry lets "inuman na!"..my..actually "our" favorite pulutan is sizzling sisig..This photo was from 2011 during night out with my colleagues. Nope, I don't drink hard..I am happy to settle with San Mig light or the Tanduay ice.

What is Sisig?
Sisig is a traditional Filipino method of preparing meat. The meat is diced and sautéed with onions, soy sauce, vinegar, lemon juice, jalapeños and seasoned with salt, pepper, and other spices. Sisig is truly one of the Philippines most delicious dishes.-

My share for food trip friday and thursday brownies.

Best Deals Hotel Orlando

Everybody deserve a break especially if your working so hard. Me please! :) as a working single mom sometimes my daily routine (work and doing some extra source of income like direct selling) could eat up almost of my time and I don't have much time to bond with my baby. Don't worry baby I'll make it up to you promise. We'll be having our first ever vacation and I have to plan it ahead so that we can save. Vacation in the United State of America sounds really cool and fun but for now I'll be happy to settle with local trips. We'll enjoy first the beauty of my country.

image not mine

When your planning your vacation in the US be sure to search online for the best deals for your accommodation. Orlandoescape offers a good deal to almost 250 hotel, villas, suites and vacation homes. You just have to look for their Orlando Hotel Reviews. They have packages which can include a transportation from Airport to hotel, free theme park tickets and other perks. You can save big time if could only choose a good deal from the many packages they offer.

As for me, if I can afford to have our vacation there, the first consideration that I'll take note is that our accommodation should within the vicinity where tourist attraction is just a walk away. It will save us from extra expenses and at the same time it will not stress us to roam around the place.
