 This is my favorite Halloween costume!  You cannot imagine what my sister does to help Mischka – we went around Hong Kong looking for this skirt and blouse!  It was both so plain and they made it into this!  Love it!

Mayette and Francis who are here visiting from Australia!!! It’s been already almost four years since we were in Australia visiting them!  mayet used to work in Rustan’s Supermarket Makati as store manager and handling all our customers.  When she moved to Australia she worked for Customer relations at David Jones and now she is with American Express handling the same thing.  It’s good she stuck to what she does best 🙂

Cleaning Your Water Dispenser

By | Agua Vida Water Station, Household Tips, Jaric Marketing Inc | No Comments

Come visit the new Agua Vida at the new San Antonio Plaza Arcade in Forbes Park!

agua-vida-san-antonio-forbes.JPGagua-vida-water-station.JPG

 It is in a new location now instead of the back it is now in front behind Mercury Drug 

 new-sapa.JPGsapa-directory.JPG

Aside from buying water from a water station, it is important to make sure to disinfect your dispensers once a month.  Here are some videos and some steps on how to do it.  You can also have your water station do it for you for a fee.  But I highly recommend this process to avoid bacteria going into your water
