I was looking at our photos this morning and I saw our photos on our last trip to Baguio and since it’s summer and vacation months again, I am happy to share my memories with this humble and yet cozy and affordable Holiday Park Hotel. We’ve been here twice already and with the nice treatment we got when we checked in there, I think it’s just right to give them some space in my blog. Holiday Park Hotel is just the perfect hotel for a small family like us. It’s a minute away from Victory Liner bus station (if you...

Summer break of the kids won’t mean that work at home moms like me will also be taking vacation. We still have to work for a living like everybody else working in offices. Summer vacations can be less stressful because there will be less task in preparing the kids for school, hubby doesn’t have to wake up early to prep the car and bring the kids to school, plus we have a break in reviewing lessons. The dilemma comes over the days when we have to work and my grown up kids are all free and they have to stay at home. So I’ve...
A few weeks from now and summer’s officially here! Yey! Have you made plans yet on where you are taking your family for a break? If you want your summer trips to be perfect and not that expensive, you have to plan it already. As they say, failing to plan is planning to fail. That includes our bags. Women, especially moms, can’t leave without their bags. I suggest that as early as now, you should know which of your bags are coming with you. Different Kinds of Summer Bags If you haven’t had the time to check the malls,...
My youngest Mariel likes dainty dresses and so, when I saw Lemon Kiss’ designs from their Facebook Page, I instantly liked what I saw. I am certain my daughter will love to wear their colorful and pretty apparels. From the photos in Lemon Kiss’ Facebook page, one stood out for me. I love aquamarine! This will be perfect for Mariel when she goes on stage to receive her medals (yabang lang :-)) Mariel Loves Dresses It’s a good thing that my daughter likes to wear dresses because I think not all little girls like to wear...
A “foodie” is a person who loves food and craves on trying out new flavors and new places to eat. It’s not gluttony or obsession for food but it’s enjoying the blessing of taste. Not everybody is blessed with good health to be able to enjoy even the simplest dishes. And you don’t even have to have all that money to be one adventurous foodie. Here are some of my tips how: 1. Register in Zomato. Zomato is the best place online to discover places to eat around Manila. From the most extravagant to the cheapest...
Fantasia Cafe had been a mysterious place for so long at Ayala Fairview Terraces. Its fancy name written in fancy letters and purple color is enough to pique our curiosity. Finally, today, we’ve seen it open and was just perfect since we were actually looking for a place to eat dinner after church. Fantasia is indeed Fantasia and first-time goers will surely be enthralled with the chandeliers, huge cushioned seats, big tables, ball masks and headdresses. You can see the bright interiors from the outside that’s why all passersby...
This is just a quick post and nothing negative against McDonalds. Everyone makes a mistake and what’s good about McDo is that they have a way to correct and make amends with their customers right away. Last night, we got caught in the traffic and I decided to just drive-through McDonalds in Fairview, Regalado. My husband and kids still wanted to wait and have dinner with me, even if it was very late. I remembered repeating my orders several times to the drive-through microphone. Sensing that the crew was having problems with my...
Just recently, I received a tiny package from Brother and it was a prize from a promo they published before for a personalized printer calendar. It was so nice I thought I’d blog about it as we also use a Brother Printer at home. The photos I submitted were actually not my favorites as I was hurrying up to join the promo. But the finished output still looked great. As printed on the calendar: This Brother 2015 Calendar of Me was printed using the new Brother color Inkjet Multi-Function Center. The MFC is a printer, fax machine, copier,...
