Thank you Unilever


Despite the weather being crazy for the past two weeks, some good news came to my inbox:

Exactly a week after, my daughter woke me up from my afternoon siesta for a special surprise. The Unilever messenger guy is at our gate with my gift pack.  Weee! I just signed some delivery documents - delivery receipt and trip ticket -- and the package was all mine :)
Four colorful bottles of Surf Fabric Conditioner made photo-op possible. And to add to the giddiness, a sudden burst of rainbow scent filled the air when I opened the pack.  Scents included are:

1. Aromatherapy Purifying
2. Aromatherapy Relaxing
3. Aromatherapy Energizing
4. 5 in 1 Freshness Spring Breeze



Can't wait to try them out on my next laundry day.  What do you think should I try first?

TWITTER: I used to do this when I was a kid.
Champorado + powder milk = imagination.
Kunwari volcano :) #rainyweatherfood #childhoodmemories



I previously made a post on White King Champorado mix, and how Sofi enjoyed it.  Last Saturday, we passed by the champorado mix stall again, and Sofi said she wanted one.  The cold weather bug must have gotten into her.  This afternoon since classes were suspended (again!) we included in our itinerary cooking Champorado.  This time we added Bear Brand Powder milk.  Yep! suddenly the memory of my childhood days came back.  I remember waiting for mama's champorado on a rainy weather.  Sometimes it's evaporated milk but the powdered milk activates my creative imagination more.  I pretend it's a volcano.  I dig a hole in my bowl then dump two spoonfuls of powdered milk.  I hate it when the powder gets eaten by the chocolate porridge.  It means daydreaming should stop and eating time should begin.  So I eat it as fast as I can so I can ask for another bowl of Champorado and start making a new volcano.  Ahh! childhood memories.
At first Sofi didn't like seeing the powder milk.  She mixed the champorado as soon as she got her bowl.  At my second bowl,
Sofi : Mommy, can I taste your milk?
Mommy: why don't you try eating the powdered milk with Champorado.  -- She obliged, then she smiled. -- 
Mommy: Do you want to trade bowls? 
Sofi : YES!
