Governor Lray Villafuerte ’s realization of a dream for his people, and his land, is truly amazing. CamSur the extreme sports capital of the country has gained popularity. And many famous wakeboarders from Europe, North America, and other parts of the world became frequent visitors of CWC (CamSur Water Sports Complex). But the dream didn’t just stopped there. There’s more in CamSur worth visiting; the warm and friendly locals, the festivals, and the beautiful islands and beaches.

Caramoan ’s one of the many reasons why one should choose CamSur as a vacation destination. And so an exhibit was opened to present and boost the beautiful island of Caramoan. It featured well-known photographers Jun DeLEON, SaraBLACK, PaoloPINEDA, JakeVERZOSA, Jo AnnBITAGCOL, and MarkNICDAO. CaramoanX6 Exhibit launched last Friday at Greenbelt 5. Cocktails were served and an auction of some of the pieces. Profits of the exhibit will go to the CamSur (Camarines Sur) education fund.

SHOULD I SAY MORE? My heart was broken so early in the morning. I woke up around 6 and found out that Daniel was already up, and was so busy sketching the bedroom floor.


Bring home some Royce’, please

Royce' - Nama ChocolateRoyce' - Greenbelt 5

DANIEL KNOWS HIS way to the Royce’ stalls in Greenbelt 5. And if we’re holding a tight budget, husband and I, would find other routes to stay away from Royce’. It will only take a few minutes for both, father and son, to gobble up a box of Baton Cookies. And I’m not complaining. Royce’ chocolates and cookies are so addictive. I love the bitter Bitter Nama chocolates. So bitter but taste so heavenly. It’s an experience once you savor the bitterness, and suddenly feels the coldness of the tiny square inside your mouth, then the luscious taste of chocolate.

Frozen Yogurt - Golden Spoon

Gratifying goodness of frozen desserts at the Golden Spoon.

 

Which is healthier Frozen Yogurt or Ice Cream?

 

Ice Cream ’s prepared from products such as; milk, cream, fruits, flavorings and other ingredients. And I think commercial ice creams used artificial flavorings and colorings as well. All ingredients are mixed and processed in a manner that would turn it into it’s creamy form. ** Ice cream comprises milk fat (10-16 %), milk solids (9-12 %), sweeteners (12-16%), stabilizers and emulsifiers (0.2-0.5%), water (55-65 %), which comes from milk or other ingredients.

And Frozen Yogurt ’s prepared from yogurt, rather than cream. ** Frozen yogurt comprises yogurt culture, milk fat (comprises about 0.5-6% of yogurt), milk solids (form 8-14% of yogurt’s volume), gelatin, sweetener, coloring, corn syrup and flavoring.

Both IceCream and FrozenYogurt is said to be nutritious with amounts of calcium, riboflavin, high quality protein, and some other essential vitamins and minerals.But ice creams’ said to contain more of fat content by weight, while frozen yogurts are low calorie and non-fat. And the best part is, the yogurt’s probiotic content. Probiotic content means good bacterial content, which helps boost the body’s immune system, enhances digestion and is also believed to lower cholesterol levels.However, a great amount of sugar is added on frozen yogurts, which makes it not as healthy as the regular yogurt.

So there. That’s the nutritional facts in scientific explanation. haha

We should take care of our body. Healthy food is best. Let’s be cautious of whatever it is we put through our mouths into our stomachs. And so the cliche goes, More of everything is bad, a little of everything is bad. Balance is the key!

 

 


Farm Town - how to make waterfalls

2 Comments Written by Daniel's Mom on November 22, 2009 in Tech Mom.

Wouldn’t it be nice to have a waterfall in your FarmTown farm? I could buy ponds and rivers, or purchase Farmtown Cash to get lakes. But no waterfall for sale. Yet, we can always keep the imagination working and the hands busy. Land elevations and waterfalls in FarmTown ’s just a matter of layering pieces of dirt paths, rivers, trees, hedges, and etc.

By means of arranging the river pieces on top of each other we can make a waterfall.

First, take a river corner.

FarmTown.10

Place four, or more, dirt paths on top of the river piece. The idea is, river/river corners can only be placed on top of the grass or a dirt path.

FarmTown.11

Then, set another river corner on top of the dirt paths.

FarmTown.12

Remove dirt paths when the river piece is already in position.

FarmTown.13

Repeat the same technique for another cascade, until you reach the desired height of your waterfall.

FarmTown.14

Then, you can add lilies on your waterfalls, ponds, rivers, or on your river banks.
