Being beautiful and feeling beautiful can be as easy or as difficult as women can think of it. In as much as “beauty is in the eyes of the beholder”, I also believe that beauty is in the heart of the “beholdee” (I’m not sure if there’s a word like that, but you know what I mean). Although I can see that many women still perceive beauty as having that svelte body and pretty face, I believe that most of us had already gone past this superficiality. As a mom of two young ladies, it is a challenge for...

Last August 31, I was lucky to witness an event which is close to my heart and to every Filipino’s heart. SM Hypermarket Streetfood Festival! Growing up in Barangay Unang Sigaw in Balintawak, Quezon City, I remember how streetfood was everywhere specially when it is the baranggay fiesta. This streetfood festival brings back good and fun memories with my neighbors, my distant cousins and playmates and “kababata”. And who wouldn’t like street food? For me, these food transcends economic status, gender and regionality....
It’s Robinsons Supermarket’s fourth leg of its year-long route to wellness promo and we are lucky to see and participate in its Wellness Theme Park at Eastwood Mall to launch the Celebrate promo. The weather was bleak and wet but it didn’t stop the people from filling up the tent. It was a fun learning experience and the kids were able to play in some of the booths. Robinsons Supermarket made sure that everyone inside will have something to play with, watch, eat and bring home. Just like every time we go to Robinsons...
I couldn’t imagine how we can enjoy KFC Chicken even more till I saw the Coca-Cola Emoticups. As soon as I saw the cups, I’m sure the whole family will have fun using them and showing them around.

Collect the complete set of KFC Emoticups Coke and KFC Chicken will always be a perfect pair These 2 global brands KFC and Coca-Cola surely...
What keeps you inspired every day? For me, it’s very important that we remind ourselves as often as possible what keeps us motivated and not just be swept away with the currents in life. It’s true that sometimes, 24 hours isn’t enough for us to finish all our daily responsibilities but in order for us to have a happy and fruitful life, we have to allot a portion of our day to pursue our own passions, whatever that may be. As for me, currently, my passions are my family, my need to learn new things, and blogging. These...

Filipinos love flavorful dishes. That’s why when we cook, we always make sure that we use varied types of spices and when we eat, we have all sorts of condiments. But sometimes, due to some health reasons or budget constraints, we like to cook without meat. Good thing is that it’s not impossible to do with Ajinomoto PorkSavor seasoning mix. You see, adding salt or fishsauce (patis) won’t be enough if you want to achieve flavorful dishes. I’ve tried that before. Although our ulam has this taste, it only tasted...
The last meet and greet we attended, Shopville Manila, where we saw Mariel’s favorite Shopkins characters was in SM Mall of Asia last May. If you’ve read my post, it was a successful event where a lot of Shopkins fans were able to meet with each other, swap collections and play activities with each other. The good news is that The Shopkins craze is continuing with a new event coming up this coming July 15-17! And what will be in store for all the fans?
