Anna's Salted Egg Potato Chips

Salted egg potato chips are said to have originated from Singapore. In the Philippines, salted duck eggs are often sold painted red so you can differentiate them from ordinary duck eggs. They're already boiled so you can immediately eat them with rice after peeling off their shells. So I was a bit surprised that salted duck eggs in Singapore have yet to be boiled. They're raw. My brother already told me about this so I didn't made the mistake of spilling the yolk and albumin when I cracked the shell of my first SG salted duck egg. I am not sure if raw salted duck eggs are available in the Philippines. Would have made making salted egg potato chips a lot easier. There's already salted duck egg powder, yes, but fresh is still best right?

Johnson's pH 5.5 Body Washes Review

Spot.ph say it's a tita thing but really who doesn't enjoy a nice bath?

I don't feel like a tita but I am literally one since I have nephews and a niece. Still, I am part of that group that hangs on to stuff that may be deemed for the younger set. I'm not letting go of my stationeries. Same with some skincare/bath products.

We often equate Johnson's and Johnson's or Johnson's products with babies but some of their products also work well for us older folks. My mom uses Johnson's Baby Shampoo, the yellow one, for cleaning her eye lashes as recommended by her doctor. My sister likes their baby powders. Me, I'm for their body washes and lotions.

For years now, I have been using Johnsons's pH 5.5 Body Washes on and off: Johnson's pH 5.5 Nourishing Body Wash with Honey, Johnson's pH 5.5 Nourishing Body Wash with Almond Oil and Johnson's pH 5.5 2 in 1 Body Wash with Moisturizers.

All three Johnson's body washes have a pH of 5.5, the same pH of healthy skin. According to a diagram at the back of the Johnson's pH 5.5 Nourishing Body Washes bottles, normal soap has a pH of 10, soap with moisturizers pH 7.3 while normal shower gels pH 7.3. Pure water has a neutral pH, 7. From what I've gathered  from this post by Women's Health Magazine, our skin has a pH of 5.5 and it is generally best to get skin care products which has this pH to keep the skin's pH level at 5.5. Skincare products with too high or too low pH affect our skin's pH level, causing skin irritations. Too high is too drying, resulting in wrinkles. Too low and you get oily skin.

Silver Vine Powder - Daiso Find for the Cats in your Life

The cats have demanded I write about one of their favorite kitty treats or else they would climb my window screen every night and meow incessantly until I lose my mind. Oh, wait that's what one of our new cats, Bandit, has been doing for almost a month now. Crazy cat thinks screens are scratching posts. Yes, I am now naming our cats after Neko Atsume cats based on their fur color.

I first learned about silver vine powder from Lady E. She mentioned in a post a cat scratch pad available at Daiso. Said scratch pad comes with powder to be sprinkled on it. At Daiso Trinoma I found this.

The magical, fun-times inducing powder. Cat Silver Vine Powder.
