Breaking Dawn Tumblers Now Available in Jollibee

With the upcoming premiere of the movie "Breaking Dawn: Part 1", the Twilight fever is rising again. Sights of different Twilight items now started to appear almost everywhere - even in Jollibee!

The Breaking Dawn tumbler from Jollibee

As I was on my way home from the grocery one evening, I stopped by at Jollibee to buy some burgers for the young ones. Then, I saw the tumbler and I can't help but get myself one. Oh yes, I'm a Twilight fan too!

According to the poster in Jollibee, the Breaking Dawn tumbler comes in two designs.The one I have features a lovely close-up shot of Edward and Bella. Regarding the other design, I haven't seen it because according to them (the crew)  it's not yet available. But definitely, it would be available soon.

Anyway, you can get a tumbler for any purchase of Jollibee's sandwich meals (burger, Jolly hotdog, etc.). It's not for free though. But it is very affordable. One tumbler only costs P25 (PHP).

Well, if you're a Twilight fan like me, this is one collectible you shouldn't miss. Buy a burger meal and get a tumbler now. :)


P.S. Breaking Dawn: Part 1 will be showing in Philippine cinemas on Nov. 18, 2011. So near already... See you all!

Review:

One afternoon while on my way home, I decided to drop by at the mini-grocery near the tricycle terminal. This is where I usually discover new products that are not yet on the shelves of those big supermarkets.

Anyway, I was busy looking for some chips to accompany me in my 'graveyard work' when something caught my interest. Toasted bread.

Well, I've tried some toasted breads before and I don't usually finish the entire pack. There's just something with their taste that often makes me stop from eating them all. But not with my latest discovery - Le Bredz.

Le Bredz is a product of Stateline Snack Food Corporation. It is a toasty bread snacks in rich butter flavor in a regular-sized packaging which makes it convenient to carry.

What sets this food apart from its competitors is the flavor. When I took a bite, I could taste sweet milk exploding from the toasted bread. It is deliciously crispy that you can't help but just crave for more.

This snack is a perfect baon for students who has now gone back to school. It is also an ideal break companion for those who are working. Or even as a midnight snack when you're up late.



RATINGS
Taste: 90% Yum-yum!

What is Froyo?

Just recently, I was invited to go out and have some fun with my girlfriends. We played some arcade games and ate dinner together. Before we went home, the bday girl (well, it was a post bday bash) treated us to dessert. And yes, we had Italian froyo.




I was curious about what this "froyo" means but still I kept quiet till we arrived at "The White Hat". It was only then when I learned that froyo literally means frozen yogurt.

Opposed to common belief that froyo was from Italy, it's not. Froyo or frozen yogurt was first introduced in New Zealand in 1970s. While gelato, which is sometimes mistaken as yogurt, is actually the Italian word for ice cream.

Frozen yogurt has become popular nowadays due to its health benefits. Unlike ice cream, froyo has lesser fats. It is also rich in protein, calcium, riboflavin, vitamin B6 and vitamin B12. Plus, it contains live cultures that are good for the digestive system.

Froyo is more tart than ice cream. It is usually served with toppings like candy sprinkles, choco drops, fruit syrup and even fresh fruits.

Well, in our dessert I had the "Lover's Hat" which is topped with cherries, dark choco drops and granola with almonds (see image above, at the left side). My other three companions chose other flavors which I can barely remember the names except for the "Baker's Hat" (which I almost chose), the one with violet syrup.

It was indeed an awesome healthy dessert experience. This first meeting with froyo for me was really love at first sight. I'll definitely try it again and check out the other flavors.

P.S. By the way, thanks Guia for the wonderful treat! Till next time! ;-)
