Is this the natural hair gamechanger the internet won’t stop talking about? My full review of Khaokho Talaypu.

Sometimes when you spend too much time watching other people’s TikTok videos, you stumble upon something you actually need. Carmina was running out of shampoo and conditioner when I saw a trending product called  Khaokho Talaypu from Thailand, known for helping with hair problems. Since I have frizzy hair and usually go for products with coconut, I was immediately interested. I looked for a shampoo and conditioner set and found one for 469.00 pesos ($7.95), not including shipping and handling, with a 40% discount. I also checked reviews before buying, and they were all positive. It’s always important to do your own research before trusting what people say. I’ll be trying the product myself and will share my experience before officially recommending it. Carmina followed the instructions on the shampoo and conditioner for her hair, and after a few hours, I blow-dried mine. It felt soft and returned to its natural texture without any frizz, which had been my problem before. The sme...

Big Al's Cookie Jar

  Reason something comes right in front of your face unexpected when you notice a cake that may look something familiar in what kind of cake your mom would want to eat for her birthday. It may not be the exact cake maker there are so many cakes we tend to buy for ourselves and there are new people who also bake cake but not many people recognize who they are since they are not discovered by other people. Just like those who are well known for their cakes they have also started from the basics until they have reach the level of being recognized by other people in every life it is the same pattern for everyone else in what they love to do. We honor and support those we learn and take not for granted but let them be recognized who they are is a greatest advantage that end up trying it for the first time. I am that person who had purchase a cake from Big Al’s Cookie Jar in Burgos Building through Grab Food online application in the Philippines. Too bad there was no dedication o...

Red Ribbon Bakery

  My sister had requested me to order my mom a birthday cake and have it dedicated to her children due being far from us even though they cannot be a part of our celebration the though counts when they have thought about their Nana on her special day. I had asked my mom where she wanted her cake and she had request a Red Ribbon mocha cake. I was able to order online and have it delivered to our home this way everything would all come on time there would no need to pick it up. This is my greatest advantage living in the Philippines just click and orders to have everything arrive in your home all you need to do is pay for it. Only thing I can do is have my mom enjoy her special day even if it is only the two of us the thought of my mom having an enjoyable time is what really counts from anyone is to spend time with your parents and family member during our time on our pandemic months. Why Nana? My mom doesn't want to be call Grandmother or Lola she said those names make h...

Unexpected Virtual Call

  During my visit with my mom at her home after we had eaten our lunch and was able to rest we had spent some time calling up her friends for virtual calls without letting them know ahead of time. Our first caller was our relative and wanted to call her up since I was with my mom to let her see us together funny thing I asked why I only see the ceiling with a light that looked like from the bathroom. Our cousin told us hey I am not prepared for this I am in the bathroom. 🤣 The second caller I didn’t realize the time difference was calling someone from California it was mid-night there.  It was a mistake and I had informed the second caller she said we can talk for a few minutes. I was already on another virtual call during that time. Third caller we had called my mom’s friend who is also like my adopted mom she was lying on her bed and she was not expecting a call from us. I asked to take a picture the third caller said wait I am not ready I have no makeup and I jus...
