After a few days of preparing nothing but meat.. it’s time for veggies to shine!

I was kinda nervous he would not like what I prepared for dinner.. he prefers meat most of the time.. to my surprise, he liked it. I guess the fried tilapia made it more appetizing. Almost crunchy.. a bit toasted but not burn. And as you can see, there are some sigarilyas on our veggies.. it came from our garden! first harvest of the year 🙂

On our 4th day of this challenge, I’m thinking of preparing one of Chico’s fave dish: Pork Giniling.

If there is one thing blogging has brought me, that is the continuous desire to make a better me. You know being exposed to beauty products, wellness products and beautiful things, I cannot help but strive hard to live more and live younger, inside and out. And of course the blogging money helped a lot (*wink *wink).. As the year starts, I decided to hold a giveaway as a thank you note for my readers.. I want you to experience the same transformation I had (if not all, most of it). I team with some of the products I love to give you this New Year, New You giveaway! Let’s live more and be younger inside and out 🙂

There will be 3 winners for this giveaway, each one will receive a beauty and wellness product perfect to make a New You this New year!
