Life needs frosting. True. After a whole year of being busy juggling different hats as a work at home mom, a blogger and a community leader, I can say that it had been a fulfilling one for me.

As a mother, I get inspiration from successful women both foreign and local. I am always amazed to powerful women who did not only serve as powerful leaders but also to famous women celebrities who manage to keep their values intact despite their positions and fame. For me, it takes a noble woman to be truly kind and honest when there’s always the temptation of being conceited when you know you can just have it all just by a wave of your hand. I am also inspired by these women because they strive hard to become the best of themselves...
Yesterday, I realized I was entering into a much harder phase of parenting, the part when I think I have to start talking to my girls about sex. Everyone was doing something yesterday then suddenly, my daughter blurted out, “Mommy, what is orgasm?” That was unexpected because I thought the sisters were doing their assignments and I found out that the two of them are reading something from the laptop. Maybe they searched for something for their assignment and they saw the word. That moment, I felt the need to explain but then...

It’s the beginning of December and everyone and everything seems to be in a hurry. Personally, I feel that time just slips away and I still have tons of things to do. But these stressed feelings can be contagious and our kids will most often pick them from us. So much so that I don’t want them to feel anxious like I do, they will also have so many things to do in school (quizzes, periodical exams, christmas programs and parties to attend). What Happens When The Kids Are Stressed Out So how do we know when the kids may be feeling...
For a simple cook like me, simple means that I can only cook dishes with 5-7 ingredients max, knowing how to prepare flavorful AND healthy dishes at the same time, is a crucial need. I am the master of my kitchen and my husband and my kids are my greatest fans so I always want to make sure that when I cook, they will always love to eat what I’ve prepared. I can only do that when my dishes are “malasa” (flavorful). Nilagang Baka – one of the most favorite Pinoy ulam which I also love to cook at home. Umami brings...
