This is a congratulatory post for my eldest daughter who initiated and took her first steps in having her own brand and business – Crazy Rich Cheesecakes. I’m a proud mom because starting a business is a great leap for anyone. It takes guts and dedication to launch even the smallest business you can take and at her age when most teens prefer to do different things, I give it to her to think of selling cheesecakes as a great idea to earn even a little bit. It started when I baked Oreo cookies and cream cheesecake and...

My two girls are going back to school soon, not physically, but via blended-learning system ( a mix of online and hopefully very minimal actual schooling – if ever it will be possible anytime soon). As their opening day comes closer, I’m already reminding them to start preparing, such as trying to adjust their sleeping patterns little by little, preparing a list of what they will need, and trying to adapt in an online mode kind of learning I tell them that this is not going to be easy, as it seems to be because they are...
I made this cute bento box for a campaign for Absolute Distilled Drinking Water and I was so thrilled of the outcome I wanted to share how I made them. If you are a bento fan or if you find this bento box cute and want to know how I did it, you can watch this short video. Making bento boxes are fun and though it takes effort, it can surely make the receiver smile with delight. The downside is that sometimes it’s too cute that you just can’t eat it. Watch as I explained how I made this Avengers Bento Box This...
There’s so much craze about baked sushi these days and so I thought to join the bandwagon. This recipe is so easy you can bake it in just less than an hour. It’s made mostly of crab meat, rice, and mayonnaise and is a good appetizer or a dish in itself because of the rice. In other sushi bake I saw, they use salmon and I wanted to use that but I’m in a tight budget and besides, I like crab meat nonetheless. Recipe for Sushi Bake 2 cups warm Jasmin rice or Dinorado1 tablespoon Japanese soy sauce (I use Kikkoman)1...
On my birthday, I indulged myself with a chocolate tart, a lemon tart and a slice of basque burnt cheesecake from a popular restaurant called Sourdough Cafe. Since I was also craving for some pasta, I decided to try the Alfredo pasta from their menu. I was surprised that what I ordered was actually a DIY Pasta Kit. Have you tried cooking pasta out of a box like this one? And so I followed the instructions which were clearly printed at the front of the box. Below were an unboxing video and the taste testing courtesy of my daughter....
It will be Father’s Day in a week and I feel that my husband deserves a simple but delicious recipe that he will love. After all, my husband is easy to please when it comes to food. I don’t know if it’s just because I’m his wife that he never complains about my cooking or that he just knows better ( not to antagonize anyone who cooks your meal :-)) So he loves cream dory and I found this recipe from createwithcream.ph, a challenging recipe as the website categorizes it, but I found it easy enough that I...
Have you experienced doing a Facebook Live? Facebook Live is a live stream shown on Facebook Although you can also show recorded videos and play it live, it’s basically for live videos. For me, it’s a thrilling experience, especially that I get to do it with my daughter. I was proud of her because she was a natural and she also supported this event for me. This Facebook Live event was part of a Mother’s Day series for Absolute Distilled Drinking Water, the distilled water brand of choice for moms in the Philippines....
I love jelly, sago, mochi, nata etcetera or any kind of sweet, gooey kind of dessert. So when I saw that Nine Fresh will be opening in a nearby mall, I was quite excited. I didn’t expect that this branch will open while ECQ (enhanced community quarantine) is in place and has an ongoing promo of buy 1 take 1. Yahoo! Nine Fresh is a store that offers cold desserts such as milk tea and these combinations of jelly and nata delicacies. I find their offerings kind of unique. I love to make jelly or desserts made of gelatin so...
