More than wearing face masks, we try to double our efforts when it comes to washing our hands. It’s the best way of protecting ourselves and our families from getting the virus COVID 19. When we go out of the house or even if we are inside our homes, with COVID or no COVID, this is the best time to practice the virtue of washing our hands. As a mom, although I hate to call it a blessing in disguise, maybe we can take this horrid crisis a learning experience, that hygiene, first and foremost, is super important and life-saving.

I love using black gulaman (black agar agar or jelly powder) for dessert because you can complement it with whatever other ingredients you like, your preferred fruit, in your preferred sweetness. With this black gulaman dessert (used @mrhatgulaman of course), you can create your own version. With most of us staying at home because of covid19, you have all the time to be creative. Ingredients Black gulaman (cubed) – I use Mr. Hat Gulaman when I’m making jellies. Follow the procedure in sachet. Here I used 1/2...
COVID 19 has been causing our family a lot of stress, and I realized that it’s taking its toll on me. The anxieties I feel seem subtle but I am seeing some of the symptoms that I’m beginning to be stressed out a little bit more and more as days pass by. I couldn’t sleep much, my neck and back seem to be aching often, and I get paranoid whenever I sneeze and my throat gets itchy. I have chronic allergic rhinitis and whenever I have bouts of this allergy, it makes me anxious. And then the allergy disappears. To make matters...
If I will recommend a lotion you can and should bring anywhere, it’s SkinWhite ♥️ Unlike other whitening lotion, it has HA or Hyaluronic Acid that boosts moisture in the skin, like those found in Korean skincare products. As we age, we really need to amp moisture most especially that our weather here in the Philippines is usually dry. SkinWhite MoistureWhite keeps moisture in my skin which I badly need especially during this dry weather. Why is Hyaluronic Acid important? Hyaluronic Acid (HA)—a natural ingredient...

I always find cooking workshops more fun when I am with fellow moms. I can feel their excitement the same as mine while thinking of learning something new to offer to their families. Last October 25, I got to be with at least a dozen moms who were eager to learn about U.S. Potatoes and the different ways of preparing them. I was also personally thrilled to attend that event when I learned that two prominent moms would be there – Chef Rosebud Benitez Velasco, celebrity mom-chef, and the very chic mommy blogger Michelle Aventajado...
It’s Lamoiyan Corporation’s Kilusang Kontra Kuto Year 4 and I’m glad to be a part of this campaign because I know the good impact it does to the community. Having kuto or lice is not an easy deal and I know it because I’ve dealt it with my daughters as they got infested many times from school. Dermatologist Dr. Ria Valdez led the talk about the proper prevention for head lice infestation and debunked several misconceptions surrounding it. Having lice can be inevitable most specially with kids because they...
It’s a rainy Saturday today and these are the kinds of days when I simply offer a prayer that we’ve got roof over our heads and that everyone will be within God’s grace to have one. To break the lazy feeling from the chilly weather, I thought to use this Pili&Pino Chocolate Granola mix I’ve been keeping for so long. It’s a 460g cookie mix made with vanilla-infused coconut sugar. Pili&Pino Chocolate Granola Mix Granola includes: rolled oats, cashew nuts, pumpkin seeds, toasted coconut, wheat...
