Mary Grace had always been a comfort zone for me, whatever branch it may be (Fairview Terraces or Trinoma usually). During the stormy seasons, we frequently hang-out in this place to have coffee, or cake, me and hubby, to finish our online projects. They have a good Wifi connection there and a power source. The staff are usually polite and warm and in FT and I love their lemon-flavored water (free). I didn’t expect that they are going to open a bigger and better branch in the opposite mall, SM Fairview. SM really knows how to compete...

This restaurant had been open for a while in Ayala Fairview Terraces but we had just tried it out recently, mainly because it’s beside Yoshinoya where we usually eat. When you are with the kids, you tend to choose restaurants which are familiar to you, you know, to be safe. Update as of January 2, 2017 : This restaurant had already closed in FT. But they still have the following branches open: GF, The Block SM North Edsa Lower Ground Floor, Robinsons Magnolia GF Robinsons Place Malolos And since it was a school day, and no kids...
My youngest Mariel turned 9 last April and I’d like to share how we managed to give her a day which she enjoyed truly. I know how tough it can be sometimes to think of where to get your party supplies, especially when you have that much time. My daughter’s party wasn’t a grand celebration but I’d like to think of it more as a play date for her where she chose to invite her friends over, dress up, and play some games which she chose with her Ate Maristel. The party wasn’t even a total DIY because all the food...
Tween age is quite a difficult age when it comes to choosing fashion styles and brands. I know this because currently, my daughter and I can only count the brands which cater to my daughter’s young age (11 turning 12). It’s either the clothes are still baby looking or they are too matured for my daughter’s age. It’s a good thing though that my daughter Maristel still listens to me when choosing her clothes. From time to time, we buy branded clothes because I know myself that these brands have durable quality, and...
Make-up was actually not my thing. I grew up without knowing much about it and when I went to college, my boyfriend who is now my husband doesn’t really mind if I wear anything on my face or not. He will always tell me, just like maybe any other boyfriends, “maganda ka na kahit walang make-up” (you are pretty already even without make-up). Even when I started working in an office, I rarely use lipstick, and my compact powder was seldom used. Imagine my surprise when I learned that my soon-to-be in laws were the opposite...
If there’s one thing the four of us always agree about, it will be to hang-out for an ice cream treat. Ice cream always makes us feel special, no matter what the weather is or how happy or sad we are. Baskin-Robbins in Fairview Terraces is an outdoor ice cream parlor which never fails to call our attention whenever we pass by. Its pink theme color is my daughter’s favorite and mine too. Whenever I see it, I can’t help remember my bubblegum chapstick, my daughters’ pink dresses, and cotton candies. All the good things...
I got to watch only one movie from MMFF this year (Vic Sotto’s My Big Bossing Adventures). We were supposed to watch Vice Ganda’s movie because we’ve watched Vice’s movies before. My cousin Iris told me that Vice’s Film Fest entry’s plot is not good but it’s hilarious so we planned to watch it on the first day of the year. But lo, there were only 2 seats left when we checked on Sureseats. We had to pick another movie because this will be our last chance to watch a movie together. There were 10...
