Business Directory

Promotion is one of the keys of business success. Promoting your business is all about making your business known to the market. If people are not aware of your business then how can you attract potential clients? It is important that you get the word out about what your business is all about and what you can offer your clients.

Business promotion doesn't always have to be expensive in order to reach your target market. There are some available low cost business promotions that you can take advantage of. I think that one good way of promoting your line of business is by putting it on a Business Directory. It will give your business a good exposure. List Business under the category where your business fits so people can easily find you.

Do you have a business that you would like to promote? Submit Business URL in a reliable Business Directory now. Investing Directory can help boost your sales.

How To Make Simple Cordon Bleu

I would like to share hubby's simple way of making Cordon Bleu:

1. Pound skinless, boneless chicken breast to ¼ inch thickness. Season both sides of chicken breast with salt and pepper.

edited 5/8/2009: Tip on pounding chicken: Put a sheet of plastic or wax paper on top of the chicken and use a meat tenderizer to pound it until you get desired thinness.

2. Put a slice of ham on top of the pounded chicken.



3. Add slices of quick melt cheese on top of the ham.



4. Roll chicken and secure ends with toothpick.



5. You'll need some flour, beaten egg and bread crumbs.



6. Roll chicken on flour.



7. Then roll it on beaten egg.



8. Roll it on some bread crumbs.



9. You can either fry (until golden brown) or bake the chicken at 350° for 35 minutes.



10. Remove toothpick and slice the chicken into several serving pieces.



11. Serve while hot.


12. For the sauce: just mix some mayonnaise, salt, pepper and minced garlic. Enjoy! :)

Red Wine Apple With Ice-Cream

The other day, I got frustrated when I couldn't find the Chocolate Truffles ice-cream flavor at the nearby convenience store. Hubby knew I was terribly disappointed. He made me feel better by making a delicious dessert. I enjoyed it and I forgot all about my Chocolate Truffles craving. Let me share the dessert my hubby made...


How To Make Red Wine Apple With Ice-Cream

1. Boil around half a bottle of red wine and 1/2 cup of sugar in a saucepan. Add 1 cinnamon stick and 2 tbsp of grated ginger.

2. Peel some apples and put them in the boiling mixture.


3. Let the apples absorb the red wine mixture. Simmer until the apples become a little tender.


4. Remove the apples from the saucepan and let them cool for a while.


5. Whip pre-chilled all purpose cream.


6. Core the apples cooked in red wine.




7. Put whipped cream inside the hole of the apple using an icing decorating tube or bag. If you don't have one, you can simply use a spoon to fill the hole with whipped cream.


8. Place a scoop of ice-cream (preferably vanilla) beside the apple.


9. Crush some toasted cashew nuts (you can also use almonds) and add them on top of the ice-cream.


10. Put some honey as a finishing touch. This is step is optional.


11. Serve it immediately. Enjoy!


I enjoyed this dessert. I appreciate my hubby's gesture. My son didn't eat the apple but he enjoyed the ice-cream part. :)

Ferrari Model Cars 2009

Last December 2007, hubby collected 6 Ferrari toy model cars in one of Shell's promotions. This year, Shell has come up with 7 new Ferrari cars with real engine sounds.

We started with three models. My hubby, son and I each had our turn to pick one ...

Our first Ferrari batch.



Hubby's pick: FXX


My pick: 599 GTB Fiorano


Yohan's pick: F430 Challenge


After a few weeks, we were able to complete all 7 cars. I took this photo last night...

Yohan's complete Ferrari toy model cars.


You still have until May 17, 2009 to collect all 7 new Ferrari models.
