Although May 2021 is not a particularly happy month in our family with my mom’s passing away, this untimely passing reminds us all how worthy every second is that we spend with our family. This is actually Jollibee’s theme as it launched it’s Family Thanksgiving Month this year. In an exclusive interview with adobo magazine, Jollibee Global Brand CMO and JFC Philippines Country Marketing Head...

It was so timing for Earth Day which is being celebrated this year on April 20-22 that I finally got the chance to unpack these gifts from Ajinomoto – lovely sustainable alternative kitchen essentials. Each of these – bamboo glass jars, woven hand towels, and reusable produce bags were sourced from local enterprises.The bamboo glass jars from Eco Shop PH and the shop offer a selection of home and personal items to encourage everyone to have a low-impact lifestyle (low-impact means less damage to our environment). The custom...
It’s two years in a row that we are celebrating birthdays at home. Since we were used to going out and dining out, even with the extended family, we were a little bit sad that the pandemic is still so much present and we still have to quarantine ourselves. Quarantine Birthday – Cakes, Balloons and Food But there are still so many reasons to celebrate and the most important is that we are still here, thriving. Life is always worth celebrating and thus, no matter where the place is where we choose to eat and be merry,...
Have you ever thought of collecting and analyzing the personal care products you use often? I’ve tried that this year and thought of just keeping the bottles of personal care products that we’ve totally used up till the last drop. Some products we used did not make the cut as they went to the thrash before they were all used up. Hair care and skincare products we loved this first quarter 2021 So these are some of those that we found totally useful and loved. I thought you might get an idea from these and try them yourself....

I totally love these lemon bars. They are tangy and sweet. And the graham crust, I can just scrape them clean from the wax paper and eat them as they are. You can be satisfied with just one lemon bar so this recipe is really good if you want to share or you can sell them. This recipe is so easy your kids can make them and sell them to their friends or classmates in school. Ingredients:For the crust:1 1/2 cup graham crackers crumbs6 tbsp melted butterFor the lemon top:3 eggs1 1/2 cup sugar1/4 cup lemon juicepowdered sugar for sprinklingHow...
No-meat roll-up lasagna for today, for those abstaining from meat. I cooked this lunchtime for merienda so it has to wait 🤗 I really miss the taste of basil so I prefer adding the leaves fresh rather than cook them with the sauce.The recipe is so easy because I used UnMeat and a prepacked bechamel sauce (cheater 😆) but hey it’s Holy Thursday and we need more time to reflect today.
