[Event Invitation] Singapore Post Office Philatelic Store @ General Post Office

Hi Dearies,

Today I'm going to share with you Singapore Post Office Philatelic Store @ General Post Office. Philatelic Store @GPO offers a comprehensive range of Singapore & Foreign Stamps, Thematic MyStamps, Souvenirs, and Philatelic Gifts that are available exclusively in-store. It is a fun experience as I learn about new festive collections. Every item in Philatelic Store marks a special moment in Singapore’s history and the commemorative value and exquisite designs of the collections made them perfect for all occasions- as business gifts, or as cherished inclusions in every philstelist's personal collection. The Philatelic shop operated and owned by Singapore Post.

I used to collect stamps when I was young and keep postcards whenever I travel. It is amazing to see stamps over the world. I learnt it from my dad because he used to collect lots of stamps but lost his album when he moved house.

Thanks to SampleStore I was invited to explore and learn more about the Stamps & collectibles with Singpost.

Do you know that Singapore previously used Indian stamps while under British Indian rule?
It became a Crown colony in April 1867 and thus took charge of its own postal affairs.

[Product Review] Tian Yuan Xiang Chicken Essence

Hi Dearies,

Hello November! The raining season in Singapore is here and I was sick for a week :( I always a late sleeper and hard to wake up early due to work and social activities. It is hard for me to sleep early because normal office workers like me, will have to contribute most of our hours to work :(



But good news is I tried out Tian Yuan Xiang Chicken Essence and can't wait to share with you guys!

So normally when we buy Chicken Essence, we will get the normal bottle types, that is a bit bitter and "not smell that fresh".

Tian Yuan Xiang Chicken Essence is popular in Taiwan and Hong Kong for its fascinating taste and rich flavour because it tastes just like a bowl of herbal chicken soup!

History of Tian Yuan Xiang:

Originated from Southern Taiwan, the chicken essence is braised and stewed under elevated temperature and use the 100 % natural extraction. Every drop can be the best refreshment to our body and make us energetic every single day!

                             







Plus they use 9 procedures to bring the best chicken essence in the world:

  • Best of Chicken Essence: No water is added during the production. With more than 10 years' experiences, Tian Yuan Xiang is a well-known front runner of chicken essence in China, Hong Kong and Taiwan
  • Healthy choice: The nutrients are easier to absorb and the oil removal process makes Tian Yuan Xiang chicken essence even healthier. 
  • Safe to consume:Self raised chicken in their own farm naturally, its safe from chemicals and hormone.
  • Suitable to everyone: Develop tailor-made flavours using different herbals ensure that its cater for every person in every stage of their life
  • Low calories, low sodium and low cholesterol: Nourish body without gaining weight.


I tried out their Chicken Essence with Eucommia.Tian Yuan Xiang had used 3.5 whole natural chickens for each box, packing chicken essence into 60c.c. x 20 packets (About 2/5 height of a bowl).
Their Chicken Essence contains no preservatives, so it must be stored in the "freezer" to keep it fresh. If you chill it in the fridge normal compartment, please finish it within 1-2 days.







We are packed with work and race with time, Singapore busy lifestyle made us always eating outside and no time to cook healthy food or tonics for our family...
Now totally no excuse, you get to heat your tonics on the go!
Cut the packaging, remove the content and heat it up and enjoy your tasty chicken soup~

(As long as chicken essence thaw out, please finish it at once, do not store it back to the freezers.)





Chicken Essence with Eucommia, containing Chinese Herbs such as Eucommia Bark (杜仲),Sang parasitic  (桑寄生), donkey-hide gelatin (阿胶)    to help replenish kidney to produce blood. Ophiopogonis Radix  (麥門冬)for clearing the body heat and Sour Jujube Seed (酸棗仁) for its effect of giving you a good night sleep.

This is suitable for long time overwork, over-brain, and night sleepers office workers  because of its herbs not only to support the kidney health, better focus and  Eucommia (杜仲) can replenish kidney and strengthen the bones, and relieve back pain from long hours seating. Other Chinese herbs can also help to lower the anger, stabilize the nervous system and give the office workers' a better sleep.

For pregnant woman and new mother, Eucommia chicken essence added in lots of suitable replenishment herbssuch as Eucommia (杜仲), Dodder Seed (菟丝子), Himalayan Teasel Root (续断),  to help relieve postpartum or pregnancy often backache,  postpartum backache, hair loss, dizziness and other discomfort.



How to drink:

Always drink it the best in empty stomach (best before 4pm) so it will give you best energy throughout the day!

Drinking 1- 2packets per day is strong recommended for people who are low in energy. For women in confinement, 2-4 packs is recommended.
