Sweet Summer

Hello blogistas!

Summer has been very pretty lately because the sun is out all day long and the weather is warm and lovely. I had been enjoying some few good food treats as well since being exposed too long in the sun can make you hot and hungry. I wanted to share with you guys these yummy foods I've been loving this time. It can thoroughly satisfy my craving for sweets with having to grab more of the bad stuff which can be unhealthy. First off is this delightful Mila's Restaurant Buko pie that was given out by my mom's student as a gift post graduation. Thanks a lot to him because I wouldn't have discovered this treat.The custard is so creamy but not too sweet and I have already been a long time fan of Mila's Bibingka and knowing one more tasty stuff from their pastry list is just awesome! 

Yummy Buko Pie!


Mila's Bibingka that I looove!

Aside from these yummy treats, I also love summer because tropical fruits are in season! Mangoes,avocados,cantaloupes, and my all time fave is watermelon. Its not a guilty food because its mainly made up of water and it does keep you hydrated from the summer heat. I have it as a snack without worrying too much if I had quite a few more slices. Yay for good food this summer!


What have been loving so far this summer?

Scrubs

Hello blogistas!

It's that time of the year again where we totally enjoy basking in the sun. I personally love summer, because everyday is a lovely day.Sun so bright,blue skies and a good excuse to tag friends along to the beach. However, I prepare myself as well for the season. I love to use body scrubs,face scrubs, face masks and a good dose of moisturizer and sunscreen. I don't want premature ageing guys. So without further ado, I would like to share my own DIY face/body scrub I make to exfoliate my skin with to make moisturizers or sunscreen last and absorb well on my skin. Plus it brightens your skin making it more look healthy and glowing.


This homemade scrub I did is just refreshing and very easy to make too. It just leaves my face and body feeling very clean, smooth and moisturized. I  have here the ingredients so that you can also make your own and all of these can be found in your pantry!

Ingredients:
1/2 cup of brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1-2 spoons of lemon juice
2-3 spoons of sunflower oil ( I use Human Nature because its organic)

Have a good summer and happy scrubbing!
