I love fresh fruit juice! I always order fruit juices whenever I dine at a restaurant. Fresh fruit juices are expensive though (around Php 80-150 per glass). So I said to myself, why not make one for myself? It’s going to be way cheaper and I get to drink as much as I can. I…

Recipe: Sauteed Ampalaya with Pork
I always see ampalaya at our canteen’s menu. It’s priced cheaper because it’s a vegetable. For a few spoonfuls of the dish, it costs about Php 70 with rice. I do not know why but I tend to eat one more meal after that because it just isn’t enough for me. Luckily, the dish is…
