And who can ever forget KoKo the famous Koala we see on TV? I grew up seeing KoKo and the animated tv commercials. It’s not only the kids who love KoKoKrunch at home, but we adults too.

This blog post is dedicated to my daughter who will officially be a “teen” this year. I know that once she reads this post, she’ll be shy. I understand and I respect that she may not be that comfortable being the subject of a blog. But I am just too happy to take this opportunity to tell her how proud we are of her accomplishments as a student, as a friend and as a daughter. She’ll be turning 13 before the end of the year, and what better way to end the tween phase of her life and celebrate the start of her teenhood...

Are you fond of watching magic shows ? We all are and it’s sad that there aren’t quite so many shows or tv programs which are of this kind already. But more than watching magicians, my family enjoys watching the tricks of how magicians do it. There was a TV Show in Channel 5, if I remember it correctly, which unveils how some magicians pull out their tricks. It’s fun knowing their secrets and how they look real when you watch them. Here’s one show our whole family loves to watch, knowing the biggest secrets of some...

As my kids approach their teenage years, I’ve started to notice behaviors that were not there before. And it pained me a lot. I didn’t realize that parenting can hurt you that much if you get too sensitive about it. If you have kids who roll their eyes sometimes when you try to discipline or teach them something, and you are annoyed to the max, welcome to my world. You Are Not Alone Yes, I’ve easily thought that its only my kids. And sometimes we parents have a problem with that. We often idealize other people’s...

Apart from milk fish (bangus), cream dory is my family’s favorite. And because it is always available in the supermarket and relatively affordable (depends on the brand), it’s also my favorite to cook.  For me, it has a unique taste but it’s very subtle that you can easily mix it to different ingredients, and make different kinds of meals. It’s also easy to cook. You can steam it, coat and fry it or fry it as it is. But what about the nutrients, what do we get from cream dory ? You’ll see the nutrient content...

One app that I personally enjoyed using myself is Jollibee’s newest Jollidance Showdown App. Jollidance Showdown App is an augmented reality app and it’s the first of its kind in the country, brought by Jollibee in cooperation with a Los Angeles based app developer Trigger. Augmented Reality is a technology...
