Dear Milkita Lollipops

I think childhood will never be complete without lollipops.

When I was a kid, we only have those chocolate or fruity flavored lollies. Now the lollipops have bubble gum and others can paint your lips and tongue a different color. But for a discerning mom like me, who wants to give her children the joy of eating lollies but also making sure they are healthy, Milkita Lollipops should be the way to go.

These lollipops, as advertised, is made from milk and is enriched with calcium. And every time Alex sees that commercial of Juday, she will bug me to buy her that, the pink one.

Yesterday, we played in Tom’s World in The Block. She played in the game where you scoop candies hoping that they will fall in the bin. She tried several times to get a Milkita Lollipop but we failed. I assured her that I will just buy from the grocery. Unfortunately, after 30 minutes of going over the candy asile of Hypermarket, we cannot find it, worse, the people there do not know what I am talking about. In short, Alex got sad and I was forced to just buy her an ordinary pop.

And so, I appeal to the makers of Milkita Lollipops, can you please, pretty please, put some of your stocks in SM groceries?

There is a Cherry Foodarama branch near me and I will try my luck again this weekend but I do not want to disappoint my daughter anymore. Wish me luck, dears.

I Am a Discerning Mom

I was on Facebook today when I saw a pretty photo of a fellow mom blogger. I clicked the image and was redirected to another Facebook page. The site is Top Moms by Off Lotion. I liked the page then I was greeted with a short survey. I answered it and I found that I am a discerning mom. Very true.

Here is what it means.parenting type

Tips for a Better Sleep

Having a hard time sleeping? This happens to me a lot since I got accustomed to sleeping late already. But there are times when I do not need to go online and I have the luxury of turning in early, I still stay awake late because my mind refuses to rest!

I have here a few things I do to help me sleep when I wanted to sleep.

  • Take a half bath before hitting the sack. This always works for me as it relaxes the whole of me. And isn’t always nice to end the day feeling fresh?
  • Do aromatherapy. Good scent always relaxes my mind and I tend to forget all the negativity in this world.
  • Clean sheets. Sometimes, the sheets are the culprits to our sleeplessness. Change them often.
  • Invest in good pillow.
  • Pray before you sleep. No matter how busy you are, do this. This will give you peace of mind that will help you sleep soundly.
