The History of Pizza

Pizza is a favorite dish of many people worldwide, from college students and singles who shun cooking to busy parents who want a quick and easy dinner that kids of all ages will definitely eat. It’s easy to understand why pizza is so popular when you consider that its essential ingredients have nearly always been available to people, and those ingredients have always been staples. Luckily, today you don’t have to grind the grains to make flour or milk a goat to make cheese. Delivery pizza specials are easy to find whenever you have a craving. Here’s a brief history of this favorite dish.

Ways to Make Money From Home

During my younger days, I used to work in an office where I worked 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, and it was pretty exhausting. Not only do I have to work 8 hours a day, but I also have to deal with the daily struggles of commuting.

Kiddie Party Venues in Paranaque 2019

I have been planning my little girl's 7th birthday party and just thinking about it, in all honesty, stresses me out. I remember planning her 1st birthday and it was indeed fun and stressful at the same time because I had to plan from scratch from getting the host, the food, the place, etc. I was planning on celebrating her 7th birthday on the same restaurant (Big Plate) so I didn't have to think much anymore, but I just learned that they closed down. So I have to go around nearby places from BF Homes, Paranaque to find the right restaurant for my daughter's special day.

Dinner at Sze Chuan House Manila

Sze Chuan House since 1977

I've always wanted to try Sze Chuan House situated at the lobby of Aloha Hotel along Roxas Boulevard, Manila. I've heard that they really do offer authentic Chinese food so I tagged my family along to take a peek at their menu and try out what's good to eat.

Midas Hotel Manila: Overnight Stay Review

Image taken from Google Maps

Since we checked in at Aloha Hotel for Black Saturday, I was looking for another hotel where we could celebrate an Easter party the next day and the only place that offered a convenient time for us was Midas Hotel, plus their tickets were reasonably priced (P999 good for 1 kid and 1 adult). I will blog about this soon. 

Beautify Your Hair with Human Hair Extensions

Since the dawn of time, women have been searching for ways for beautification. And when human hair extensions were invented, women all over the globe discovered the secret to looking young and beautiful all year round, at least with their hair. In the past, women spent hours adorning themselves with scented soaps, extravagant gowns and spent hours styling their hair in styles that only took a few minutes to undo. Nowadays it's still the same: women are still spending hours to look beautiful. The only difference between then and now is, as time changed, almost everything was more convenient and women have a wide range of accessories and beauty products to make themselves look extra beautiful without trying too hard.

Use of Adhesives to Apply Your Full Lace Wig

Full lace wigs are now commonly used within the entertainment industry especially with actors, actresses and our most admired celebrities. Because of that, they have now become the most sought out hair accessory in the world. Ordinary men and women are now using it for a variety of reasons from the use of a hair replacement system to fashion. Its use began in the theatrical industry to alter and improve the appearance of a character and bring the movie, show and cast to life. The undetectable nature of the system caught the attention of the medical industry as an alternative for patients with Alopecia or have lost their hair due to a medical condition. However the cost per unit was quite high, even for those that required the product, therefore it was only available for the privileged or the wealthy.

QUITTERS ARE WINNERS: Are Your Habits Increasing Your Cancer Risk?

Photo by dylan nolte on Unsplash

I used to have family members who would smoke at least 2 cigarettes a day. It's either they were stressed or they need it to help with their digestion. Sometimes, it's out of peer pressure especially if you're working in the call center industry. Thankfully, they all eventually quit even before having any side effects. 

If you have a cigarette smoking habit, think twice about taking another puff: tobacco use is the most important  risk  factor  for  cancer,  responsible  for  around  12%  of  cancer deaths based on the Globocan 2018 data. Among the different types of cancer, the one that affects the lung is the most common cause of cancer mortality at an estimated

1.76 million deaths globally.

Country Bankers Launches 4Ps Insurance

It's been a struggle for me as someone who earns just slightly above the minimum wage to look for an affordable insurance for my family and for our helpers (kasambahay). I am happy to learn about Country Bankers Life Insurance Corporation and their affordable insurance product they just released. 

CBLIC Celebrates 54 Years of Service in March

More than five decades of service has never dampened Country Bankers’ commitment to providingsimple and affordable insurance for Filipino families.

John Lloyd Cruz First Endorsement Appearance After 2 Years: Is He Coming Back to the Limelight?

John Lloyd Cruz in Turks Commercial

Photos and videos of matinee idol John Lloyd Cruz have been surfacing after being on hiatus from the showbusiness since 2017.

Cruz, one of the most bankable actors of the Philippine cinema and very effective endorser once again proved that his fans are still waiting for his return. In a teaser video, which lasted only for a few seconds and only shows the back shot of Cruz’s, and posted in the Facebook page of the number one selling shawarma Turks a few weeks ago had been viewed 3.2M times, shared almost 800 times and gained a huge number of comments.

Without any clue in that teaser video, his fans already assumed that it was him in the video. Actress Bea Alonzo on her Instagram also posted a screenshot of that teaser video, which garnered almost a million likes.

This Monday morning Turks finally revealed in the 1-minute and 17 seconds video of Cruz showing the actor walking through different destinations, which somehow depicts Cruz’s sojourn. The video is very simple, yet there’s drama the way it was created, and in a very subtle shot, he stopped and took a bite of a Turks pita donner.

The rugged look of Cruz in the Turks video titled Ang Pagbabalik is way too far from his guy-next-door image and a lot of people in the industry are asking if this signals his return to the limelight. His fans are still wondering about the life he’s been living since his hiatus.

According to Turks president Gem L. Zenarosa that during the course of his talks with Cruz, they never talked anything about his showbiz career or plans. He added that he got Mr. Cruz as the latest ambassador of Turks because of his great confidence working with Cruz.

“I am really grateful that John Lloyd trusts our company, he is a brilliant and very creative young man. Aside from acting we have discovered some of his remarkable talents,” Zenarosa stressed.

The Ang Pagbabalik according to Zenarosa is actually about Turks Small Pita Doner, which will be available again in all its branches.

Turks Small Pita Doner

“John Lloyd is the best endorser for this because like him, despite his absence in the showbusiness for a couple of years, the warmth and love of his fans for him never dwindles. With our Small Pita Doner we believe that our customers will be happy to know that it is back in our menu,” Zenarosa explained.

Just like Cruz who is seen to have a different image since he last appeared in the big screen, a clear indication that the actor is recreating himself and exploring different grounds, Turks is also doing the same thing to keep its customers excited whenever they visit a branch.

Turks Rice Bowl

In  time for the release of Cruz's endorsement video, Turks also released to the market its newest offering --- Turks Rice Bowl, which is a complete meal. You can choose beef or chicken for your rice topping, and it is priced at P50. The Small Pita Donner on the other hand, is priced at P35.

"To keep up with the demands of our customers, Turks continues to improve our menu and offerings to satisfy the discriminating taste of our loyal patrons," Zenarosa stressed.

John Lloyd Cruz now joins the roster of endorsers of Turks such as Piolo and Inigo Pascual.

Aloha Hotel Manila: Overnight Stay Review

I've always wondered what it's like to stay inside Aloha Hotel because whenever we take Roxas Boulevard, we always pass by this hotel, which has a wonderful location just across the Manila Bay near the Manila Yacht Club, and it even has a Chinese restaurant, Sze Chuan House, at the lobby area. 

We are grateful for Zenrooms.com for giving us an overnight stay to any destination of our choice on their website and when we found out that Aloha Hotel is listed, we decided to grab the chance.

What Lessons Can We Learn From Minimalist Fashion?

 While there’s nothing wrong with loving clothes, in today’s day and age many of our fashion choices have far-reaching impacts. This includes impacts on the environment and society, especially as our climate begins changing more and more. In a world that’s all about consuming as much as you can, sometimes the biggest and best fashion statement is to keep it clean and simple.

Do you fall into #MalnutritionTraps?

The country has been facing the rise on the number of underweight and overweight Filipinos for more than 20 years. The World Health Organization (WHO) defined this phenomenon as the “Double Burden of Malnutrition” or the “prevalence of both under nutrition and overweight in the same community, nation, or region.”

To address this problem, our government launched the PinggangPinoy® campaign in 2014. PinggangPinoy® is an easy-to-understand food guide showing proper food group portioning on a per-meal basis. This reflects the principles of MOderation, VAriety and BAlance (MOVABA) to promote healthier eating habits.

Solving the Philippines’ Double Burden of Malnutrition should be a collaborative effort between the public and private sectors as it is not an easy feat. With this, Ajinomoto Philippines Corporation partnered with government agencies to conduct education programs to raise awareness and promote the practice of Pinggang Pinoy® in malnutrition hotspots, where incidences of Double Burden Malnutrition are high. This training was given to homemakers/mothers who have malnourished (underweight, stunting, wasting, overweight and obese) school-aged children.

The pilot run resulted to improvements of the knowledge & attitudes of households related to the practice of Pinggang Pinoy® within target areas. However,behavior changes towards healthier eating habits remains to be a challenge.The program uncovered a number #MalnutritionTraps that some Pinoy households easily fall into. The following #MalnutritionTrapsprovide a picture of how unhealthy eating habits may lead to Double Burden of Malnutrition:

1. Over consumption of carbohydrates: Voracious rice eaters can easily fill half of their plates with rice. Others have pandesal & noodles as regular meal deprived of other nutrients derived from a well-balanced meal. 

2. Under consumption of vegetables and/fruits: It is common for some to be content with rice & meat to satisfy their hunger and skip/take insufficient amount of vegetables/fruits.Fact is, the variety of colors found in Glow foods are important sources of vitamins & minerals to sustain our energy &keep us from getting sick.

3. Overconsumption of protein: Typical Filipino “SILOG” meals include double serving of proteins (e.g. Tapa+Itlog, Tocino+Itlog, Longanisa+Itlog, Bangus+Itlog). Eating different kinds of protein is fine for as long as they are taken in moderation.We must also avoid protein dishes served high in fat, cholesterol and sodium.

Stop Tossing and Turning and Look to Some Comfortable Bedding for Your Semi Truck AmIowa

Drowsy driving occurs when a person who is driving a motor vehicle is too tired or sleepy to remain alert. As a result the driver may have slow reaction times, reduced vigilance and impaired thinking. In the worst case the driver may fall asleep behind the wheel. The result is often disastrous and fatal.

Accidents are most common late at night and early in the morning as it is the body’s natural sleep period, though it can happen at any time of the day. Older adults are more likely to have a drowsy-driving accident in the mid-afternoon.The best thing to do when you feel like you’re about to doze off or lose focus, pull over at a safe site to take a short nap of 15-20 minutes. If you drive a semi truck frequently, it’s advisable to get a couple of semi truck sleeper accessories stashed in your vehicle.  A truck mattress can bring great relief to road-weary muscles and joints while providing you with the much-needed power nap before you get back on track.

Don’t get the impression that if you are out on the road doesn't mean you can't be comfortable or take proper naps. Iowa80.com provides a huge assortment of semi truck bedding, semi lug nut covers, truck accessories and parts which you can order online at your fingertips.

Severe drowsy driving accidents most often occur at high speeds on highways and other major roadways. Drowsy driving accidents can occur at slower speeds too. In many cases, drivers who are drowsy make no effort to brake or avoid an accident as he lacks the focus and presence of mind due to weariness. Oftentimes, at least one vehicle may veer off the road.

To prevent drowsy driving and accident while driving, get a full night of seven to eight hours of sleep before driving. Try to avoid driving late at night and driving alone. Get someone to drive with you. On long haul trips, share the driving with another passenger.  Pull over at a rest stop and take a nap. You can also use caffeine for a short-term boost.

Iowa80.com has everything you need to get a good night's rest even after a tough day. Shop for sleeper sheet sets, various size mattresses, travel pillows and chrome hubcaps for semi trucks to make your cab cozy for your long haul drive.
