Italian coffee 义式咖啡

I was curious to find out how this Italian coffee taste like when I saw it at the local Pick & Pay store.  It says Italian Coffee with Classic Italian flavor that you'd fall in love with..I have already felt in love with the local kopi kahwin (thick black coffee with condensed milk & evaporated milk), something has to be better to make me fall in love for the 2nd time..haaaa...

 

when comes to Italian coffee, my expectation goes to cappuccino and expresso, but to my opinion, this packet of coffee is too mild for a coffee drinker..  

 

But I like the packaging and it is convenient to bring along anywhere you go to enjoy a light coffee at anytime.

Munchy's Lexus Crackers Biscuits

My colleague shared with me a packet of the Munchy's Lexus Cheese Cream crackers biscuits for me to munch after lunch.  It is really nice, I bought a big packet of it during my visit to the hypermarket a few days later.

I also bought the vegetable flavour immediately on my next visit to the hypermarket

I told my better half that I really like these crackers biscuits, he told me that there is a Chocolate one in the cabinet no one is eating it...I am not fond of chocolate and my girls are very selective on chocolate stuff too.. 

I like the colour of the packaging, it is my favourite purple.

 

There are 12 individually wrapped small packets in each big pack. 

 

Cheese cream is sandwiched in between 2 pieces of crackers, simply delicious 

 

6 pieces of vegetable flavoured crackers biscuits in a small packet 

 

I had a packet of each cheese cream and vegetable crackers biscuits with a cup of hot coffee to complete my after lunch munching... 

 

done..!! with satisfying tummy..but seriously I have to reduce my after lunch munching bad habit..

Free coffee refills at McDonalds

On monday, just happen that we were around the city with a McDonald nearby, so it came to me that why don'twe have McDonald breakfast for a change.  We usually have economy mee and stuff for breakfast, having burger for breakfast is not our norm.

When I stepped into McD I saw this sign in front of me, there is a pot of coffee on the table waiting for coffee lovers. I am not a coffee addict but more towards casual coffee drinker with lots of milk and preferably with brown sugar as sweetener.

Back to McDonald breakfast, since our kids are at school, we ordered one set of each for ourselves. Honestly, I like its burgers,  expecially the texture of the buns. Two sets of Mc breakfast only cost us around RM10.00 (USD3.20), reasonable.

With the purchase, we were given a piece of the heights measurement scale for kids, very colourful. That will add colours to my kids fashion shop.

Needless to say, I refill my coffee and take it away to the office. Clet helped me to refill. If you want to have a free flow of coffee in the morning, go to McDonald. 

Skin Care, AnneMarie Borlind Products

My Day Cream pot is empty.  Trying to save by using as little as I can for the last few days, till I can dig no more today. "_"

empty cream pot

I am not very particular in choosing my skin care products so long it is not questionably cheap (the quality of very cheap stuff are questionable) and not overly high priced (those that I can't afford).  

For the last 2 -3 years, I have been using some of the Annemarie Borlind's products.  I find their products are of good quality as it claimed.  Annemarie Borlind's products are from Germany,   The company that I work for is the sole distributor of their products,  they are being sold in Malaysia and Singapore.

I have tried their Skin Whitening Fluid, Ceramide Vital Fluid, LL Regeneration Eye Wrinkle Cream, and LL Regeneration Day Cream.  Today, while replenishing my day cream, I am also adding its LL Regeneration Night Cream into my skin care regime.  

I have been using this LL Regeneration Eye Wrinkle Cream for 2 -3 year now, I like its non greasy and soft feeling each time I apply it.  I guess it helps me to control the appearance of the fine lines around my eyes.    

The new pots of LL Regeneration Day Cream (RM213.00) and Night Cream that I bought today.  

A short introduction of these products as it says on the packaging:

• The LL Regeneration Day Cream is an intensive day protection with the highly effective LL Bio-Complex.  Proven to support the nature regeneration of dry, poorly moisturized skin.  Ideal as a base for makeup.  
• The LL Regeneration Night Cream has valuable herbal extracts and the LL Bio-Complex have been proven to support natural cell renewal and have an oil-restoring and moisturizing effect on dry, poorly moisturized skin.  The skin regains its freshness and elasticity.

Both are with organic botanical extracts.

Gray Hair Instant Remedy

You are the lucky one if you only found a few gray hairs among the bunch of hairs on your head.

Many says the appearance of gray hairs is a sign of prematured aging if it is not inherited. I guess mine is caused by both.  My grandma was like an Orang Putih, she had a full grown gray hair, needless to say my mum too having the same problem.  Plus the way the life we have now is full of stress no matter how well we manage it. Quite obvious that having gray hairs is inevitable.

It's an eyesore looking at these gray hair after a month without treatment 

I was using the organic herbal hair dye for the last few treatments but I find it a bit troublesome.  The powder has to be dissolved more than 3 hours before applying and the mixture dries up pretty fast, but the good thing is it's free from chemical and it seems that I have to apply every 2 weeks to maintain its colour.  Tiring la!!

I decided to use a different product this time.  I applied the mixtures on my hair for an hour or so, after washing it off, this is how my hair look like...Ta..Ta..

gray hair no longer visible

my hair look more shiny, not as dull as before

You may want to know which product I am using.....it's BIGEN Hair Color Conditioner, I used the soft black shade.  My hair look more natural with this colour.  This set is actually for my better half, but he asked me to use it after hearing me grumbling about my gray hair.."<>"

It is very simple to apply.  Just squeeze the two solutions on the comb provided and apply it on the gray area, leave it on for an amount of time as described and wash off.  Can be done at the comfort of our home.  This set is good for 2-3 treatments.

GreenMax Golden Germ Drink / soup

I 've nearly forgotten about a box of GREENMAX Golden Germ in my other room's cabinet which I bought especially for my lunch in the office, it is convenient to prepare, I can just have this soup with bread or biscuits as lunch in the office.  This soup is also suitable for  my weekend light lunch at home.   

GREENMAX Golden Germ is Vegetable Flavors Health Soup Mix. It is a savoury soup.  Very western style of cream soup though it is a product from Taiwan.

There are 12 sachets of 35g each sachet, I couldn't remember how much I bought a box of this soup.

35g sachet

The ingredients : Yam, Tomato, Pumpkin Seeds, Green Tea, Job's Tear, Wild Rice, Flat Red Bean, Black Bean, Black Sesame, White Sesame, Wheat Germ, Oat, Buck's Wheat, Wheat (Cereals containing Gluten), Sea Weed, Pea, Carrot, Cabbage, Celery, Sea Salt.

the content of the dry ingredients look like this.

I usually mix the dry content with very hot water from the hot water dispenser to make my cup of GREENMAX Golden Germ soup for my lunch in the office, it is nice to go with toasted bread and butter.  That's my lunch for the day.
