Pedal it Up!




How was your weekend folks? Yesterday was exhausting and tiring day for my family. We did spring cleaning. It is time to dust the drapes, sweep under the rugs, wash the windows and flip the mattresses...hehhehe! Time for me to get rid off those winter clothes....yohooo! We also did yard work and hubby fixed the fences, while I was working on my flower garden.

Today we decided not go to church, instead we went bike riding. We woke up early and eat our breakfast at the park. It's been a long time since I ride my bike. I'm telling you it was exhausting....I thought I will pass out....hehhehe! I seriously need to get back in shape again. I need to shed some pounds because I have noticed that I'm getting big....not "FAT"....that word is harsh...hehhehe!

We had fun and Akesha enjoyed it. We definitely will do it again. After we went bike riding we headed off to the commissary and went shopping. That's our weekend folks! How's yours?

Best Replacement for Sugar


I have been wanting to lose weight for many years now, and I tried different kinds of products but I was unable to lose any pounds at all. I have found out that Stevia Powder and Fructevia is the best option for me to use. Have you ever heard of Stevia Powder and Fructevia? The Stevia Powder is processed from the “Stevia Rebaudiana” bush and is 250 to 300 times sweeter than sugar yet has no carbohydrates or calories. This product is also safe for diabetics as well as persons who suffer from hypoglycemia. It contains no carbs, calories, artificial ingredients or fillers. Stevia Powder will increase your energy and aids digestion by stimulating the pancreas, and it does not harm your healthy teeth.

The Fructevia is another product that is great for cooking and baking. Fructevia has less than 3 calories per serving and does not affect blood sugar levels so it is safe for diabetics, and very similar to Stevia Powder. It is a blend of fructose, fruit fiber, Stevia and magnesium carbonate. This product dissolve instantly, and you can even use this in hot and cold beverages.

I think this is the best replacement for sugar. I am planning on getting these products for my father because he is diabetic. If you would like to get these products, you should visit www.steviva.com. I already tried it for smoothies, lemon juice and the next thing I want to do is use it for baking. So what are you waiting for? You should get yours today.

Camiguin Escapade

These photos were taken when my best friend from college and I went to visit the Paradise Island of Camiguin. We've been longing to spend time together after graduation. We parted ways when we both became busy with work. So we decided to treat ourselves to a weekend getaway at Camiguin Island. We had a blast from the trip, and we're able to tour the whole island.
Sunken Cemetery
Hot springs
What a coincidence! We met one of our acquaintances from college...Ronald!

The Ring Tag

I got this cool tag from TBeng of Entertainment Spree. Thanks a bunch teBeng for including me. That was very nice and sweet of you. I got excited when I saw this tag because I thought it is kind of different, and very entertaining as well.


Why should the wedding ring be worn on the fourth finger? There is a beautiful and convincing explanation given by the Chinese..... Thumb represents your Parents



Second (Index) finger represents your Siblings.
Middle finger represents your-Self.

Fourth (Ring) finger represents your Life Partner. & the.. .

Last (Little) finger represents your children.

Firstly, open your palms (face to face), bend the middle fingers and hold them together - back to back.

Secondly, open and hold the remaining three fingers and the thumb - tip to tip. (As shown in the figure below):
Take 1...hehhehe...hard to take a pic ...this is a snapshot from my laptop.
Take 2...hehhehe...:)
Now, try to separate your thumbs (representing the parents)..., they will open, because your parents are not destined to live with you lifelong, and have to leave you sooner or later. Please join your thumbs as before and separate your Index fingers (representing siblings)...., they will also open, because your brothers and sisters will have their own families and will have to lead their own separate lives.

Now join the Index fingers and separate your Little fingers (representing your children)...., they will open too, because the children also will get married and settle down on their own some day. Finally, join your Little fingers, and try to separate your Ring fingers (representing your spouse). You will be surprised to see that you just CANNOT..... because Husband & Wife have to remain together all their lives - through thick and thin!! Please try this out and pass............. ISN'T THIS A LOVELY THEORY?
I will only tag those married bloggers here in blogland...hehhehe..:) Now it is my turn to pass this tag to: Dangz Madz, TAmy, TCes, Umma, TJane, Hazel, Rose,Chelle, Ria, Chie, Cacai, TVhing, Meryl, Shydub, Maxi, TEden,TWeng, Arnie, TFaye,Niko, Khaye, Katherine, Mommy Kris,Mommy Liz, Eds, Payatot, Maria, TMarife, Mommy Clang, Grace, Mommy Lu, Via, Kevin, TBeng, TBeth, TKim, and YOU...come and grab it guys....have fun!

Do you know what the story behind your name is? My parent's wanted to name me Demxie, and the registrar's office messed up the spelling to Demcy. My name is a combination from my parent’s names.

It is a place where people contribute to names s meaning and even genealogy tracking.

My Own Version of Chicken Curry

One of our favorite restaurants to dine in is the "Matis Indian Express". Hubby and I love their chicken curry a lot. The thing is...every time we go there...we always feel unsatisfied by their servings and not only that...it is expensive as well. So I told hubby that instead of going to the Indian Resto... I would rather cook my own version of chicken curry...and it took me awhile to find the easy way on making this dish.
I've been making this dish for many times now....and I would say I became an expert on making this dish...hehhehe...:) So here's the recipe for you. By the way, I always add potato or peas on my chicken curry.

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 tablespoons curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1/2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger root
  • 1/2 teaspoon white sugar
  • salt to taste
  • 2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into bite-size pieces
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 cup plain yogurt
  • 3/4 cup coconut milk
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Directions:
  1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Saute onion until lightly browned. Stir in garlic, curry powder, cinnamon, paprika, bay leaf, ginger, sugar and salt. Continue stirring for 2 minutes. Add chicken pieces, tomato paste, yogurt, and coconut milk. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 20 to 25 minutes.
  2. Remove bay leaf, and stir in lemon juice and cayenne pepper. Simmer 5 more minutes.

From Mama with LOVE!


I have received a surprise package from our mailbox yesterday.... another package came from my dearest mother from the Philippines. Thanks a lot Mama! You are the best!

What's inside the package was the picture above. She thought of sending me a toothpaste, spirulina, and the Zhi Mint Candy. This product is made in Malaysia, and I believe that this is very effective product. I have been using DXN products since I was in college. Actually, my entire family in the Philippines is using this product. My dietary supplements are Reishi Gano, Ganocelium, and Spirulina. These supplements helps my irregular period normal and it also keeps me away from being sick. When I was in the Philippines, I get sick every month and I already landed in the ER for 4 times. Luckily when I moved here in the US, I never get sick that often. I think it's because of the clean environment.

The first time I moved here in the US I was looking to see if I can buy DXN products online, but then I found out that the price is beyond our budget and I can't afford it. And I'm just lucky enough to have a very nice mother who supplies these supplements for free. I know I owe her a lot...hehhehhe! Love you Mama!
