Coffee on the Go

Something new brought to us by URC, makers of C2 iced tea: Coffee Twist Iced Black Coffee, Classic flavor. It's a ready-to-drink bottled iced coffee with syrup. I find it a little too sweet, but I think it's yum for P 14.

It also comes in orange flavor, which I haven't tasted yet.

Enjoy!

Meeeh Likeyhhh

In Le Divorce, Isabel Walker (Kate Hudson) received a red crocodile skin Hermes Kelly from her French lovah. I think it's a truly beautiful bag and looks chic whether it is carried as a handbag or slung on the shoulder, but the crocodile skin looks rather stiff.

This Parisian's Kelly on the October issue of Lucky Magazine is a far more youthful and understated version of the bag. The leather is soft, the color, low profile and matches the gold hardware perfectly.

Food for Thought

The recent typhoons brought environmental issues to the forefront right here in Manila. Damage to our environment is not anymore a cause for concern in the near future but a problem that has reared its ugly head here and now.

Nowadays, lunch hour in the office doesn't go by without the recent calamities, along with environmental issues that caused it, being brought up.

So how can everyone help save the environment without taking on too much responsibility all at once? No need to wait for smart cars to become available in the mass market, this effort can be too expensive at present and may take a few more years to become a viable solution.

The simplest way is to try being a vegetarian. Of course, deciding to turn vegetarian doesn't have to be a lifetime decision right away. One vegetarian meal at a time is all it takes to start helping save this environment. According to http://www.goveg.com/environment.asp "Eating 1lb. of meat emits the same amount of greenhouse gasses as driving an SUV 40miles."

The solution need not be complicated nor expensive, and you can start helping right away. Try being a vegetarian for a day.
