Everything Nice!

I’m sure everyone knows about ICE SCRAMBLE! It’s that pink ice shavings with powdered milk and chocolate syrup on top that we often see in a cart in front of our schools before. It’s one of those food that our parents didn’t allow us to buy for hygienic purposes, along with sago, sweet corn, barbecue and other street foods. But for the heck of it, I’m one of those hard-headed kids that bought them once and enjoyed it, thankfully I’m still alive after all those bacteria and microorganisms lurking on those street foods.

Are you still looking for more ways to earn money online? Aside from paid posts, pay per clicks, and text link ads and other money earning opportunity available online, have you heard of revenue sharing? The first revenue sharing program I’ve tried is on YouSayToo.com, I added this blog Everything Nice! a year ago and I’m happy with the results. There’s a significant increase in my adsense earnings since then. Maybe because YouSayToo comes out first on Google search sometimes and my blog content lands on the first page of Google. I indicated my Adsense ID in YouSayToo so that every time my content earns clicks, Iget to have a percentage of the earnings from YouSayToo.

There are some things that I don’t scrimp on, one of them is food and good kitchen utensils and cookwares. I’m not really into cooking but I can whip up a delicious meal when I’m in the mood. So having good quality utensils, pots and pans is one of my top priorities. Last December, I bought a Teflon frying pan because the Teflon coating in the old frying pan started to wear off and I was afraid of the Teflon dangers I’ve been reading. Little did I know that before its first use, Teflon coated pans and also cast iron cookwares should be “seasoned” before using for cooking. Yeah, I didn’t know this at first too but I’m writing this now so that you can do this on your newly bought Teflon cookwares and cast iron pans.

“Seasoning” means to treat the pan with oil to create, or rejuvenate, a nonstick surface. Cast iron pans traditionally require regular seasoning. But, with use and as Teflon-coated pans age, the surface may need to be seasoned to add to its life and effectiveness. Seasoning a Teflon-coated frying pan, or other Teflon-coated cookware, is fast and simple. eHow.com

As you have noticed, my blogging went into a slump. A lot of you already know the reason why, and I thought I was spared from pregnancy blues but my OB said that the 3rd month will be the peak of the pregnancy stage when I experience nausea, loss of appetite and fatigue. I usually post my pregnancy updates on The Misis Chronicles, visit if you have time.

Last month, Yuuki of It’s not always about me hosted a blog giveaway and Everything Nice! and Health and Beauty Geek are part of the sponsors. Part of the contest mechanics is to make a blog review on any of the sponsors. I was quite surprised that some took notice of my blogs and took time and effort to review my blogs. This is my first time to receive such compliments for my blogs, and after reading them, it made me want to start blogging about what I love again because there are some who really appreciates my posts and food photos. Again, thank you!

Thank you!

Estrel’s Caramel Cakes is one of the few names whenever specialty cake suggestions are asked, along with Dulcelin’s Mango Torte which I love. And because of all the raves for Estrel’s Caramel Cakes, I ordered one for my mother’s birthday. I ordered one day in advance since their cakes are made to order. I ordered for their 8-inch round cake with caramel filling for Php 600. The person I talked to on the phone was nice enough to ask if I want to put a message on the cake for free, so I gladly asked to put a birthday note.

Finally a food post! It is evident that Jeff and I love Persian food, our ultimate Persian food discovery is Shomal Kebabs and Curries but it’s admittedly so expensive and we can’t afford to dine there whenever we crave for some Persian food. Grilled Tomato is the answer for our Persian food cravings, it’s along Tomas Morato that’s why it’s near the office and the price is really affordable. The Beef Kebab meal that comes with iced tea is only Php 100.
