Have you experienced a Christmas or New Year’s Day when your dining table is cake-less? Because all cake shops have that long line outside and all of you happened to pre-order? I did experience that, and I promised myself that if ever it happens again, I’ll be ready. But baking, as I usually say, is easier said than done. Especially on holidays, when I can’t even find time to brush my hair. Since I’m a carrot cake lover ( I love it more than banana cakes ) I decided to try Magnolia Fast & Easy Bake Carrot Cake...
November is the month of Thank You’s as we thank McDonald’s with the numerous happy memories we had in their branches, for the great food especially French Fries and chicken (my daughter’s favorite fast food take-away). Sometimes I wish my kids are still toddlers so we can still have parties in McDo. Now, I just make do by buying Happy Meals from time to time. This month also, SM Supermalls partners with McDonald’s to bring the SM McDonald’s Caravan in select malls, and the National Thank You Day celebration. On the...
It’s the most wonderful time of the year but SM City North EDSA is making it even more merrier for all of us because its Christmas theme is a Disney theme! Mickey and Minnie and the rest of the Disney’s Tsum Tsum animated YouTube shorts are featured in this years 45-foot Christmas tree and we couldn’t help feeling awed with its size and grandeur. We were lucky to be able to witness the launch of Disney’s Tsum Tsum Christmas Tree last November 10 at SM City North EDSA The Block. I made sure to bring the girls with...
Robinsons Supermarket’s Route To Wellness year-long campaign in promoting health and wellness culminates in a grand family event which happened last November 4 at the Eastwood Mall Open Park in Libis, Quezon City. Despite some drizzle, shoppers eagerly visited and participated in booth activities. This month’s theme is all about sharing wellness that’s why it was named as the “Give” promo. Very appropriate for the upcoming season of giving, the Give Wellness event gave us the feels of the holidays through...
In our family, nothing can beat Filipino dishes. We can try any other type of food, indulge in them, but at the end of the day, we will still go for our native tastes. Last week, we were finally able to dine in for lunch at Sarsa Kitchen in UP Town Center. It’s usually jam-packed on Sundays but it was a Saturday and we were there a little bit earlier, 11AM. The place was peaceful that day, with only a family and a couple dining in and we easily saw our spot. The chairs and tables were not too close to each other and the seats are...

We’ve spent Halloween this year in a charitable way and it was fun! The four of us joined Sofitel Philippine Plaza Hotel’s Goblin Run, a charity fun run with street children from Villanie Foundation as the main beneficiaries. Sofitel was truly commendable as they combined all aspects of a perfect event : the Halloween fun, the healthy aspect of running, the chance to help the community, and the chance to try Sofitel’s magnificent food and accommodation – all in one. Amazing, right? We checked in early that Sunday...
Disclaimer: This is a sponsored post but reflections and opinions as a mom are 100% by me. My youngest is into curly hair these days. She was born with straight hair and have always loved her hair. But as most parents with daughters 7-12 years old will know, young girls love curly hair just like how the princesses in fairy tale movies wear them. This time, before my daughter goes to school or go out with the family for some weekend fun, she always requests me to fix her hair braids. Hair braiding keeps her hair looking neat and when...
