Get your grrrrrrrill on!

I know summer's over, but grilling has never been done on a seasonal basis here in the Philippines. Filipinos are very much fond of grilled recipes - everywhere you go, there will always be charcoal-broiled foods whether on a classy resto, a burger stand or a barbecue stall on the corner of the streets. Grilled recipes has always been a must-have for every Filipino party (it isn't a celebration without a lechon!). 

Alright, I'll stop with the blabbering. I'm not gonna talk about a recipe, or some experiences on grilling - I'm not a very good cook either (just a very good eater. hehe). I just had to share this another awesome infographic we have helped build for JES Restaurant Equipment. This goes out to all rookies, chef wanna-be's, and to each one of us who just wants to indulge in a tender and juicy grrrrrrrilled dish. And just in time for celebrating - Happy 4th of July US Citizens!




Let's help spread the good grilling word by sharing this infographic. Who knows, maybe your neighbor will see it and you'll end up with juicier burgers down the road. :) Chow!

World Water Day 2013


Remember the Surprising Water Usage Numbers infographic I posted last month? Well that's just one of my own little ways of helping to raise awareness of the importance of water on humankind. Now today is a very special day especially for the environmentalists, nature lovers and earth/Mother Nature friendly persons because today, is the UN World Water Day 2013! It's not a holiday but it is observed every 22nd of March for each year. 

So what's in it and how can I take part?
People from different parts of the world have their own way of celebrating World Water Day. There are educational events, symposia, excursions, sports competitions, even theatrical and musical celebrations. You can take part by helping in the campaign in your own way - posting the official banners on your site/ social media account, implementing water conservation in your own household or like me, just blogging about it.

For a more expanded detail of this worldwide UN celebration, you may visit the official site here.
With the alarming increase of water crisis, let's not practice conserving water just on this day, but each and every day! :)





Suprising Water Usage Numbers

The current statistics of water crisis seems unrealistic knowing that our planet is 70% water. So let's make it clear: we are running out of FRESH WATER. With the growing population, the supply of water cannot and will not be able to satisfy the increasing demand of humankind in less than 10 years from now, not unless, we learn how to SAVE. To get a better picture and understanding of what I'm trying to convey, this infographic shows our daily water consumption and what are the alternative ways in which we can lessen water usage.

Gardening and its Health, Mental and Financial Benefits


Gardening is a great way for older adults to meet their recommended daily 30 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity. Researchers at Kansas State University discovered that among the health benefits of gardening is keeping older hands strong and nimble while improving self-esteem. It's probably no surprise that gardening, and all the physical activity that goes along with it, leads to weight loss and other better overall physical health. But did you know that gardening can improve your bones as well? Gardening strengthens your bones in a way similar to weight training.
