Time To Relax!


After some days of being stressed out, I finally decided to give myself a break. Went to have a body massage last night at Emchi Massage. As usual, the soothing "hot stone" massage never fails me. I was able to get rid of my body pains and the "hard pressure" given by the Vietnamese massage attendant was absolutely great.

This is more than an hour whole body message which will normally start by soaking your feet in a wooden bucket filled with warm water while the massage attendant is working on your arms and hands. Next, she will give you a relaxing "foot massage" which is the best that I had so far. This will be followed by the "back massage" which will later include the hot stone massage. Overall, it was great! In fairness, the Vietnamese massage is the best that I had having experienced already that of the Khmer traditional massage and of course, the one from Philippines. Well...I have to try yet the Thai massage which according to some friends, is also great!

This is a good way to relax and get rid of toxins in your body. Well..., I'm able to reduce my stress a bit. Although not completely, I'm sure this will be totally over in few days time.

I should be doing this on a regular basis. The price is reasonable. $10 for everything including the TIPS.

Not bad, huh?

Have a great week!

Creamy Buttered Mixed Vegetables With Quail Eggs

Image
I wanted to try my hand at cooking this creamy buttered mixed vegetables with quail eggs, one of the dish cooked and served during my son's birthday. I got curious because my son told me that this was the first dish to finish from all the dishes served. I have seen this served on some parties that I have attended before but I wanted to try doing it myself.

This is very easy and can be done in very simple steps:

Ingredients :

1/2 Kilo Mixed Vegetables
1 Can Nestle Cream
2 Dozen Quail Eggs
1/4 kg Sweet Ham
Garlic Butter

Procedure:

Saute the mixed vegetables in garlic butter, add the sliced ham and quail eggs. Pour 1 can of nestle cream onto the fried mixed vegetables, stir for 5 mins and it's done.

Easy right? This dish doesn't cost much, easy to prepare, nutritious and delicious.

A winner! :)

SSS Flexi Funds For OFW's

Few months ago, I'd been contemplating with the idea of contributing to SSS Flexi Fund For OFW's. But the problem is...I haven't reactivated my contributions yet with SSS since I started working overseas. I'm planning to work on it when I go back to Philippines to take my vacation.
I came across this SSS Flexi Fund when I still have the Filipino channel here in my work place which is NBN 4 from which I always had the chance to watch "Bantay OCW" by Susan K. There is a segment there wherein the Chairman of SSS will be interviewed by Susan K to give updates on the latest projects and developments at SSS. This is where I first encountered about the SSS Flexi Fund for OFW's.
The way I look at it, it is an investment opportunity created by SSS for overseas Filipino contract workers to encourage them to save for the future. It is a provident fund and all accumulated amounts of contributions plus interests will be accrued solely to the OFW member. The funds po…

Reactivating My SSS Membership

One of the things in my bucket list for 2012 is to reactivate my SSS membership which I discontinued since I resigned from the last company that I've worked with in the Philippines.  I resigned 2nd quarter of 2007 and decided to try my luck as an OFW.  I did not intentionally want to discontinue my membership.  It's just that I was too busy and preoccupied at that time and this thing had slipped off my mind.  It was only late last year that I finally gained back my interest in reactivating my account with SSS but still, I was only able to start this year (lol).  Anyway, better late than never.   Since I belong to the maximum bracket of SSS contribution already from my previous employer and upon checking the contributions required for OFW's, I've seen that I just have to continue the same amount of my previous contribution  from my last company.  The only difference is that last time, my company pays for the other 50% of the monthly contribution.  Now, as an OFW, I will…
