Lagos Farm

I was very excited to visit the so-called spring pool. I was expecting a hot/cold spring and a waterfall. I was imagining a resort lost in the center of the woods! Located in Ibao, Tantangan at about 20 or more kilometers away from our place. then another 2 kilometers going to the resort. The 2 kilometers is a sloping rough road trail. I was holding firmly on the car door handles afraid to be shaken! We arrived by lunchtime.. there was no waterfall, no spring, and no forest setting but 2 pools (one kid and one for adult) surrounded with mango trees. If you are planning in going there better bring your own beer, softdrinks and snacks coz their canteen sells everything in a doubled price compared from other stores. By 4pm, heavy rain with strong winds showered. Dad was cursing! The road wouldn't be good for going home especially at night time. At last, by 6pm the heavy rain stopped and we started to journey home.. There were big puddles of water and we nearly got into an accident. Th...

Those are just one of their many talents that makes them angels in disguise. I mean, girls, we can't help it if our guy calls us in our sweetest pet names and offers a home-cook meal, a present or a relaxing massage with sweet talk incentives that burns our hearts to the bones. Then we forget the world, we forget what were yelling about! Guys, those creatures are really talented creations.... :) If our mans only know, we always want to please our partners.We don't want their eyes get astray! Girls hate that! We want you to be  looking only at us and admiring our beauty, our skin, our hair and our curves. Ours, are the only allowable thing for you to admire! If not, we get...

STORING BREASKMILK

What kind of container should I use to store expressed breast milk? Store expressed breast milk in capped glass or plastic containers that have been cleaned in a dishwasher or washed in hot, soapy water and thoroughly rinsed. Consider boiling containers after washing them if the quality of your water supply is questionable. If you plan to store breast milk for three days or less, you can also use a plastic bag designed for milk collection and storage. While economical, plastic bags aren't recommended for long-term breast milk storage because they may spill, leak and become contaminated more easily than hard-sided containers. Also, certain components of breast milk may adhere to the soft plastic bags during long-term breast milk storage, which could deprive your baby of essential nutrients. If you use breast milk storage bags, place them in containers for greater protection in the refrigerator and freezer. How long does expressed breast milk keep? How long you can ...
