Finding the perfect jeans for me is a challenge not only because I’m petite but I’m also chubby in the usual parts. Very ironic because I think my body is very typical of Filipinas my age, but when I’m looking for jeans, I find it difficult to find a pair for me because they are either too tight fitting on my belly or they are low rise ( they don’t reach my belly at all). I’m looking for a perfect pair of denim jeans from Levis just recently, I’ve already found my size and my style, but when I got to...

With so many local celebrities here in the country, I can pick only a few who I think are not only worth watching on TV/cinema but also worth emulating by my daughters. I am very careful when it comes to this area because, well, I know that celebrities are imperfect and have hidden flaws, and these can easily be misunderstood when written in the net. They can easily become negative examples of teens.  Anne Curtis, for me, had a great reputation for a very long time. She has a clean but classy fashion sense, she speaks well and she is...

Before the first work week of January ends, I’d like to celebrate in my blog my 100th review in Zomato! I am just so happy to achieve this because I believe in myself that with more than 240,000 review reads and more than 1Million views on my posted photos, I was able to contribute valuable information to my readers, at least in learning good restaurant alternatives. I am not a food blogger and I seldom attend food blogging events but I enjoy writing (short as they may be) about my family’s food trips no matter how simple the...

This morning, I found myself browsing on our photos and I realized how big my daughters had become since 5 years ago. Looking at our photos made me feel nostalgic but happy. I feel very grateful to the Lord for blessing us with health and means to provide for the family throughout the years. I also realized that God may have destined us to have two girls only for us not only to be able to provide them well but also for us couple to have ample space for ourselves and be able to share some to others. Our Princesses   I also want to...

Year 2015 is almost over and our journey to a perfect smile for my eldest daughter is also in its final stage. And because we were very grateful to Dr. Urbi and Green Apple Dental Clinic who introduced us to Myobrace, a painless way of having my daughter’s teeth fixed, I thought a pre-2016 post will just be worth it. After 15 months of wearing Myobrace and monthly dental check ups, you won’t even know that Maristel already wore her first braces. The results of the appliance she wore almost the whole duration of the program...

My daughter who just turned 12 had a simple, but happy and meaningful birthday celebration with the rest of the family this weekend. Thanks to Red Ribbon dedication cake, Maristel started our simple family dinner by blowing a single pink candle. I’m proud of her and proud of myself and my husband for having a beautiful and intelligent daughter. God was so good to us for giving her good health and an active mind. Currently, she dreams of becoming a pediatrician on which we told her that we will support her all the way. Thanks to...

I’ve already seen a lot of movies where daddies teach their daughters how to ride their bikes. It’s because learning how to bike is quite a milestone, and it becomes sweeter when you are able to remember your first ride with your father. This December, my daughter got her first 2-wheel bike from JSPGC and her dad, my husband, was just so eager to teach her how to balance and ride without support. They went out one early morning to the community park and after an hour and a half, I heard Mariel shouting outside the house telling...
