Blueberries -- a nutritious snack

Blueberries are awesome fruits of great nutritional value. Even with their tiny size, they are packed with nutrients and minerals. In fact, Blueberries have been recognized as fruits with the highest antioxidant activity. Some notable benefits of Blueberries include memory improvement and healthy aging.  

I usually eat this while watching TV or as a snack on its own. I also combine a handful of blueberries with banana, strawberries and milk to create a refreshing smoothie, which is especially very refreshing in the summer months!!

I bet you didn't know these things about the Blueberries!

Lay's Limon flavored potato chips

Lay's have been one of my favorite brand of potato chips.  It has a variety of flavors to choose from that you can't get enough of it.  When I saw this flavor, I just had to try it.

Pichi Pichi: Filipino Snack Recipe

Last month, my Aunt visited us at home and while we were chatting over lunch (or merienda, i can't remember), she mentioned that she knew how to make Pichi pichi!

You see, Pichi-pichi is one of my favorite Filipino snacks because they're really delectable. A store here in Bulacan named "Tetok's" sells well-made Pichi pichi as well as palabok and barbecue. Because that store has really delicious pichi-pichi, their product became my standard.

When my Aunt taught us the Pichi-pichi Filipino recipe, I was pleasantly surprised how Tetok's product and my Aunt's pichi tasted the same! It was really a delightful experience watching her make one of my favorite Filipino desserts and tasting how good they are.

Let me share a few things about how my Aunt did it.

Hershey's Treats Cookie Bar

This week's chocolate fix: HERSHEY'S TREATS COOKIE BAR !

At an affordable price of Php 6.50, you can satisfy your craving for a Hershey's chocolate! But is it at par with the brand's quality of yummy treats?

Hello Kitty Filled Biscuits

I bought this bag of Hello Kitty Filled Biscuits at 7-11 because I thought it would be a good substitute to the Meiji Hello Panda biscuits I always purchased. Apparently, this product was licensed by Sanrio itself so I got even more curious. Can this snack actually keep up with Hello Kitty's fame and not disappoint the Hello Kitty fans out there?

Lengua de Gato from Good Shepherd (Baguio City)

Almost all the people I know have passed by Good Shepherd in Mines View, Baguio City before heading home to buy their pasalubongs for their loved ones in the city, or wherever they live. Good Shepherd is in fact a very popular place. From what I gather, the nuns in this convent are the ones making the treats and there is no doubt about it because the snacks are just heavenly!

This is one of my favorite purchases at Good Shepherd. There are a lot of different brands for the Lengua de Gato - long thin milk cookies that's become a popular pasalubong option - but I love Good Shepherd's lengua the best.  It is very creamy and not too sweet so it just tastes heavenly! I love how it just melts in your mouth and satisfy the sweet-tooth kid within you. 

Kopiko's Kopiccino: Instant Capuccino

I saw this instant Cappuccino sachet in the grocery and bought it right away. KOPIKO is a brand that coffee lovers love and with a new product like this, one will not hesistate to try it out.
