Since I am a SAHM without extra help getting sick is a doom for me. I basically rely on myself especially in making myself better. Last week I had my most terrible day due to the change of weather, I got myself rhinitis attack. It made me weak and was sneezing all day and I have runny nose which irritates me. I had to think of a meal which wouldn't cost a lot of my time. Finally decided to cook Corned Beef Stew which is so easy to prepare and will only need few ingredients. Ingredients: salt tomato, sliced in quarter ginger, julienned onion, sliced in quarter garlic, diced 1 tin can corned beef 2 potatoes, cubed Procedure: Boil the spices in three cups of water. Put in corned beef and let it simmer. Add potatoes simmer until potatoes are cooked. Add salt to taste. Serve. Corned Beef Stew What are your quick fix meals? Share yours.

Calamondin Wonders

Insect bite marks has always been a problem with my little boy. He is prone to mosquito bites I guess because of skin color and it bothers me when he has alot of bite marks all over his legs and even his abdomen. I tried to use alot of creams for him but what bothers me most is the discoloration after the swelling is gone. I have tried already the very famous cebo de macho but to no avail. Photo courtesy of google images I searched for a natural remedy for him which is readily available at home - calamansi. Tried it on him for 3 weeks now and I am so amazed how his skin lightens without any signs of irritation and the insect marks are gradually disappearing. I use it also for my little girl during her bath mix it with water and her skin also lightens as well.
