My sister wants me to send her some acne solutions that I am using. But what I’m using now is a prescription from my doctor. And of course her skin is different from me tha’s why I’m hesitant to just send one for her. What I’m going to do is look at over the counter solution that can help clear the acne. Or maybe she should try to look at her diet too and eliminate food that triggers her break outs.

I noticed that oily, shrimp, and chicken are my trigger foods. I’m thankful that these rice cake is not :D

I’m not on the verge yet of screaming I am acnefree! I still have to take care of my skin and avoid eating foods that trigger my hormones to produce more oil. I noticed that the food that triggers my pimple hormones big time is when I eat fried chicken (specially with the skin), other deep fried foods, and shrimp. Yes, in that order from the most to the least culprit. I often get acne on my lower chin only and they said that this is often caused by eating a lot of meat. I’m not big eater of beef so that one is out on my list already. If you’re like me who get acne like this.. then watch what you eat, you might have the same trigger foods.

I started last week to withdraw from eating sweets. But guess what, the calories and sugar that I avoid eating directly from cookies, chocolates, and other food were replaced by my rice intake. So my goal this week is to cut back from eating rice plus sweets. Hope I will not be needing any help from Anoretix to loose weight. I really want to do it naturally. So wish me all the best for this week :D

I’m not eating healthy lately.. name all the processed food and I’m sure I got it. From hotdogs, pizza, cakes, chocolates, chocolate milk, chips, cookies, and just recently, M&M. I opened a big bag before I sit on my desk. Yikes! I was telling to my husband that I really need to go back in my diet.. eating good and healthy food. So this M&M should be the last junk food will pass on my mouth.. oh help me!

It’s been a while since my last update with this blog. I was busy taking care of personal stuff –OB appointment, running errands, resting, and trying to make up time with my little girl. How do I spent my time with Lianne? Mostly, we read books together, we lay down on bed and I tell stories when she was a baby, we go to the store and eat out, and we also spent time baking. :D I know I will miss the time bonding with her when the second baby arrives.

Talking about baking, this reminds me that I need to make a pumpkin pie with her. This will be my first time to make it. Hope it will turn out good. I want to achieve the classic pumpkin pie like that below ;)

Two weeks ago, I got the steamer that I’ve been wishing for months :) It’s not expensive but sometimes I have to think many times before buying stuff like this, why?  Because it needs space in our kitchen and I want to make sure that the gadget or tools I will buy will be at use and not just for display. So far, we have used it twice for steaming rice cake and it’s yummy! Next wish is this paella pan for hubby he makes the delicious seafood paella I’ve ever tasted!
