There’s more to learn in their workshop for only P1500. As they say, health is wealth. It’s always good investment to take care of yourself.
It was great fun preparing this for you to enjoy, I enjoyed eating all that afterward don’t worry about that. The blender I’m using, I found by reading this review of best juicing blenders. I found that this one suited my needs and I liked how it looked. As always, please be safe while you prepare food with machinery and knives.
