I must admit that our government agencies might still be turtle-like when it comes to digital progress, but at least now, I am really seeing progress. I’ve blogged about the efficient service of SSS recently, the SSS online system and the SSS Loan Restructuring Program, and I’m just happy to share that I found out that PhilHealth has a working website already. I’ve seen their website long before but it was not functional and they still don’t have an online member inquiry. I believe it’s very important that...
If there’s one thing my kids love to do after taking a bath, it’s baby powdering their face and whole body. They got this thing from us, including their dad who loves to put baby powder on his whole body after he takes a shower. That’s why I always keep a stock of bottles of baby powder in my cabinet because who wouldn’t love hugging babies and a daddy who smell so clean and fresh? Unfortunately, as much as I want to indulge my kids with baby powder, I also keep our baby powders in check because I’ve read before that talcum powder,...

I can confidently say that because, in my 13 years of parenting, uncertainty starts the moment your child comes out from you in the delivery room. But while you are in the planning stage, from the time when you and your husband had just decided that you wanted that little bundle of joy to that day when you start to babyproof your home before the baby arrives, that you will be able to perfectly handle given that...

We only have several weeks more and the kids will be back to school. AND we will also be back to planning the daily baon and snacks. Despite all the choices we have, there are many times when we run out of ideas. Good thing, Mayora Philippines just launched CalCheese. It’s a new wafer snack, a little bit sweet and cheesy to taste, and available in sizes easy to pack in the kids’ lunch boxes. The wafers are very affordable too so I can just buy a couple of boxes and my girls can open some whenever they want to snack on them...

As a retail customer, there are three basic reasons why I will come back to a certain store again and again: If the store contains everything I need when I shop -The store should be a 1-stop-shop and it should have the most important things I need at home.

Maybe because this skill helps us a lot when it comes to budgeting. If I enjoy shopping in the store –...
