I have a long-time indulgence and that is pampering one of the most important parts of my body : my hands. With these pair of small but sturdy hands, I nurture my family and I accomplish most of my goals through the works that I do through them. And so my hands are worthy of my utmost care and attention that’s why most of my most treasured skin care products are hand creams. In this part of my blog, I wish to share this simple passion. And if you are lucky, I’ll send you the hand cream I’ve just reviewed. Let’s...

A few months ago, my husband had to rush me to a hospital in the middle of the night because of shortness of breath. I was having allergy bouts but I ignored it since I thought I was just having ordinary cough and throat irritation. But that particular night, I found myself vomiting because my throat was too irritated and when I lied down to go to sleep, I woke up and found it very hard to breathe. My husband and I went to Commonwealth Hospital and Medical Center ER and for 2 to 3 hours, I was checked and given medication to ease out my...
After a week or so abstaining from meat, I’ve finally had the chance to cook some of the pork sausages I got from TFH Meat. I know we were in for a nice, meaty treat when I got my samples days ago because the packaging was quite neat. For me, the packaging says a lot about the products inside them. Most often than not, when brands effort so much in how they wrap and present their products, especially when these are food items, the more they will make the products inside them very much worth it. TFH Meat pork sausages and corned...
I don’t consider myself as a devout Catholic nor do I wish to promote any religious sect. But why did I bring up this topic on my blog? First, these are the perfect days to reflect. Second, because I thought, why not? I was very hesitant before to write anything about religious topics because I don’t want to seem self-righteous and know-it-all, especially when it comes to being upright and Godly. I have made many bad decisions in my past, is still committing sins through my thoughts and so I know I am far from being upright...
Dishwashing is one of the most simple house chores which teens should be able to learn as early as they can. The reason is simple and it is because all of us will need to do it, at one point or another. Sometimes, I’m guilty of just letting them skip or not do the washing because they are studying or they had so many assignments to do. It’s actually wrong because when we do that, we let them think that they earn this kind of “entitlement” because they are studying their lessons. They need to understand that “house...
As a mom, I’ve always wanted to be able to bake bread and cookies for my family. It warms my heart whenever I see them eat my finished products. But while baking by merely following recipes and watching tutorials worked for a time, I knew in my heart that if I wanted to be able to bake better cookies and bread and eventually be able to sell them if I want to, I really have to know the proper techniques in baking. PACE (Professional Academy for Culinary Education) is now opening their facility for students of Baking and Pastry Arts...
Because I am a work at home mom, it’s inevitable for me to want to dine out most of the time. It’s a welcome break for me from doing household chores, cooking and washing dishes. My husband and I also take advantage of eating out with the kids to get closer to them, talk to them about their interests while we are all in good mood and enjoying good food. And so we are all glad that numerous food parks are sprawling our subdivision’s vicinity. One of these is El Neo Garahe Food Park. We were at El Neo for the first time...
I had a salary loan decades ago when I was still employed in a telecoms company and up till now, I haven’t paid it fully. Somehow, no matter how I tried to pay it, excuses got it in the way. I also applied for a Loan Restructuring Program years ago and I only had P500 to pay monthly. I had P12,000 debt that time and I was given 2 years to pay. Unfortunately, I did not take it seriously and was only able to pay half of it and then stopped paying. After neglecting my dues for more than two years, as I was checking if my SSS voluntary...
