My Mom's Leafy Vegetable Salad

My mom is becoming aware of the benefits of  healthy eating and herbal medicines nowadays because she's tired of drinking those pills and tablets.
Yesterday she prepared this salad that she learned from a television show, I called it Leafy Vegetable salad because it contains green leafy vegetables.

Here are the list of vegetables she used.

~Kangkong ( Water Spinach / swamp cabbage)
~Kamote tops (Sweet Potato leaves)
~Saluyot (Corchorus)
~Malunggay leaves
~tomatoes
~onions
~ginger

First, she soaked it  in water with baking soda to clean the leaves thoroughly. Just toss all the ingredients in a bowl with chopped onions, tomatoes and ginger.
Add vinegar and brown sugar as its dressing and it's done!

I was not hesitant to try it for it taste really good, specially if you're eating fresh vegetables.

If you have other vegetable salad recipes that are easy to prepare I would love to know.. Thanks and Happy

Thrifted.. Pre Loved..

Have you been on a Thrift store or garage sale? Ever heard of "Pre loved"?

I heard that word and knew about it on my first year in online selling, I had seen online shops selling Pre loved stuffs or what we call "second hand" or thrifted. It's rampant here in our country and in the local market we call it "Ukay - ukay".

Have you bought one in such stores? I once, bought from an online store a pair of branded kid's clothes and hardbound books. That was my first and the second one was from a friend which I bought a pair of leather boots and a branded jacket also for kids. That was it for I only buy second hand items from persons I really know and I am very choosy and meticulous about it.
I'd been selling my own "pre loved" clothings on my shop, too..some are my kids' stuffs which are very rarely used or never been used, and having my personal friends known that I'm an online seller they will ask me to sell their personal items which they never or they are not using anymore. I really love helping them and of course it's an extra income for me, too.

In my page for Ladies I have 3 albums which are all pre loved or thrifted. I just hope I'd be able to sell them all.

Just a few tips in buying or selling second hand items:

* Make sure that what you are selling / buying are in a usable state and is still presentable.
* For buyers, specially if you bought an item from the "Ukay ukay" (or from persons you don't know personally) wash the item thoroughly and iron them first before using so you can be sure that you can't get any diseases from it.

What's your views about Thrifted / Second Hand / used / Pre loved / or Ukay ukay items? Are they worth it?

I Will Totally Omit You In My Life

No! I'm not talking about a person here..

I'm talking about this cheap slimming pills I recently ordered online. I was really frustrated in losing those fats I accumulated for the past months so without thinking I ordered a bunch. Then when I am about to take a pill, it smells really awful and I really can't take it. I am having wild thoughts, I researched for reviews in the net and it doesn't say anything about the pill I was about to take all that was written there says that its effective and yet it just smells a little awful.

Last year I have taken 2 bottles of other brand and yes, the effects are great and in just a week I can feel my collar bones again. Those pills made my throat dry the whole time I was using it and I need to gulp on liters of water even when I am sleeping I'd be awake wanting to have a drink for it really made my mouth dry. I lose my appetite and I can survive the whole day without even eating and never felt hungry but of course I still eat for I know it will be very bad for my health if I won't.
Before I even finished the 2nd bottle I was ill with UTI or Urinary Track Infection and that triggers me to stop taking the pill. After 3 days of not taking it I was pigging out and in just one month I gained the weight I lost and it doubled. 

Last February, I ventured to another slimming pill, this time the expensive one which costs around P1,200.00.. I wasn't taking it continuously because I don't feel like taking it everyday so the pill lasted for 2 months and on 1st week of April I found out I'm pregnant and lost my baby because of taking that pill.

I have learned lots of lessons but I'm still too stubborn, but I guess I'm not that brave now to even put these stuffs on my system again.

So from now on.. I WILL TOTALLY OMIT YOU IN MY LIFE! for good! 

I'll be fit and healthy the natural way.. I PROMISE!
