Digital Way of Ipon Challenge 2021  Ipon challenge is a trending topic at the start of the New Year. I see a lot of posts on how to be successful in doing the challenge, how much to save in an ipon challenge, how effective the ipon challenge is. For me, it is alright to save money for emergencies.

She started her menstruation a few months ago and, with it, she had to deal with acne on her forehead and more whiteheads on her T-zone. I never thought I will deal with this skin problem so soon. She is just still a baby for me! My firstborn and my only daughter.  I am actually more conscious of how here acne is flaring up.

There I did the mixing and cooking of all the ingredients from the original recipe I planned to follow (except for the lemon) and added the sauce (not part of the original recipe). It smelled good, really... And my taste buds enjoyed it. Now, I wonder if you will enjoy it like I do.
