Quick microwave cooking that is not only healthy but cost-efficient as well

There’s no need for the chef in you to feel unaccomplished when you prepare home-cooked meals with a microwave. Given that microwave-prepared food are quick and easy to make and actually healthier to eat (more on that later), Midea Microwave Ovens are also very wallet-friendly. 

But to get a clearer picture of its advantages, and since school season is in full swing, here is a hearty two-minute microwave French Toast recipe that your kids can enjoy eating without you breaking a sweat preparing.

You’ll need to cube two slices of bread and place those pieces in a mug. Separately, prepare a bowl that contains a combination of one egg and three tablespoons of milk, topped with a dash of cinnamon. Pour that egg mixture into the mug and press down the bread cubes so it can fully absorb the liquid. Microwave for one minute, and then ten seconds at a time until fully cooked, then you’re set.

REEL DEAL: Imagine You and Me REVIEW

It was always clamored by fans of AlDub to have their own movie, though they started with My Bebe Love #KiligPaMore, the MMFF movie was created for the Vic and Aiai team up with the addition of Alden and Maine as they became the biggest discovery of the noontime show. After several concepts presented, they were given the scripts to Imagine You and Me. Along with that are tickets to Italy which they will be filming the movie.

The concept of overseas love stories is not new to us, but they wanted to be as close to their theme with the romance of Romeo and Juliet. Filmed in the picturesque city of Como, is the not the usual cities we know but it does have that charm perfect to set up a love story. Imagine You And Me showed what AlDub stands for and we can connect to it.

There are also a lot of actors and cameos which appeared in the movie, and one of the stand out among them are Irma Adlawan and Jasmine Curtis-Smith. Commendable performances for comedy also includes Cai Cortez and Cacai Bautista which provided really hilarious moments alongside Maine. 

It has an interesting mix of light and heavy scenes which I would say is a roller coaster of emotions. And truly they have delivered kilig moments with the character. Since this movie took a while for concepts and filming, it does show that these types of genre must never be rushed and always take perfect time (Tamang Panahon) for it to be effective and moving.

Happy World Unlike Any Awaits In “TROLLS”

From DreamWorks, creators of highly successful animation such as “Kung Fu Panda,” “How To Train Your Dragon” and “Madagascar” comes “Trolls,” the most smart, funny, irreverent animated comedy of the year. 

“Trolls” takes the audience to a colorful, wondrous world populated by hilariously unforgettable characters and discover the story of the overly optimistic creatures (Trolls), with a constant song on their lips, and the comically pessimistic Bergens, who are only happy when they have trolls in their stomach.   “Trolls” features the voice of Anna Kendrick as Poppy, the optimistic leader of the Trolls, and her polar opposite, Branch, played by Justin Timberlake. Together, this unlikely pair of Trolls must embark on an adventure that takes them far beyond the only world they've ever known. 

Leading the happy bunch of Trolls is Poppy (Kendrick), a relentlessly upbeat — if slightly naive — Troll whose father King Peppy saved his subjects from the Troll-hungry Bergens. As she and her group of nine friends, the Snack Pack, face their biggest challenge ever, Poppy is faced for the first time in her life with a problem that apparently can't be solved with a song, a dance and a hug. But after some hilarious attempts at saving the day, Poppy discovers that being true to yourself is always the best answer.

Roald Dahl's Beloved Book "The BFG" Comes to Life‏

Disney and Amblin Entertainment, in association with Walden Media, present the fantasy adventure film “The BFG,” the first-ever motion picture adaptation of Roald Dahl’s resonant tale of childhood, the magic of dreams and the extraordinary friendship between a young girl and a big friendly giant.

Roald Dahl’s seminal tale of the friendship between a young girl and a mysterious giant seemed perfectly aligned with director Steven Spielberg's own body of work, and while it may have seemed destined that Sophie and the BFG would one day find their way into Spielberg’s care, it would be decades following the book’s publication before the journey would actually begin.

Dahl’s “The BFG” was first published in 1982, the same year Spielberg’s own story about an unusual and transformative friendship, “E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial,” captured the hearts and imaginations of children and adults alike. The British author is one of the world’s most creative, mischievous and successful storytellers, someone who understands the inner lives of children and has a knack for creating characters that kids could relate to and storylines which kept them involved.
