It's easy to immerse oneself in Cafe World. Today, I reached Level 15 which means I can already whip up Tony's Classic Pizza to add to the usual menu repertoire. These include bacon cheeseburger (the most basic), Super Chunky Fruit Salad, French Onion Soup, Triple Berry Cheesecake, Spitfire Roasted Chicken, Home-style pot roast, tikka masala kabobs (or kebabs), jumbo shrimp cocktail, & spaghetti and meatballs.

Typhoons Ondoy & Pepeng show the importance of buying insurance, especially for Acts of God
Correct me if am wrong, but paying either life or non-life insurance isn't a concept most, if not some, Filipinos take to. Perhaps, it's our sense of fatalism, or feeling invincible, or simply not having the budget to pay extra when it's more urgently needed for school fees and other necessities. Some only take on insurance because purchase of their house or their car is funded by the company they work for. I had this belief myself, until approaching old age led me to think about the future of my children and other ponderable "what if's......." A little savings, ... Continue Reading...
