It’s two years in a row that we are celebrating birthdays at home. Since we were used to going out and dining out, even with the extended family, we were a little bit sad that the pandemic is still so much present and we still have to quarantine ourselves. Quarantine Birthday – Cakes, Balloons and Food But there are still so many reasons to celebrate and the most important is that we are still here, thriving. Life is always worth celebrating and thus, no matter where the place is where we choose to eat and be merry,...
Have you ever thought of collecting and analyzing the personal care products you use often? I’ve tried that this year and thought of just keeping the bottles of personal care products that we’ve totally used up till the last drop. Some products we used did not make the cut as they went to the thrash before they were all used up. Hair care and skincare products we loved this first quarter 2021 So these are some of those that we found totally useful and loved. I thought you might get an idea from these and try them yourself....
What can be a better day than starting it with some nice, soft, buttery crepes with your favorite fruit such as fresh strawberries. I was lucky enough to have some stocks of these big, luscious strawberries from Baguio so I topped some slices on cookie butter crepes for breakfast.

I totally love these lemon bars. They are tangy and sweet. And the graham crust, I can just scrape them clean from the wax paper and eat them as they are. You can be satisfied with just one lemon bar so this recipe is really good if you want to share or you can sell them. This recipe is so easy your kids can make them and sell them to their friends or classmates in school. Ingredients:For the crust:1 1/2 cup graham crackers crumbs6 tbsp melted butterFor the lemon top:3 eggs1 1/2 cup sugar1/4 cup lemon juicepowdered sugar for sprinklingHow...
No-meat roll-up lasagna for today, for those abstaining from meat. I cooked this lunchtime for merienda so it has to wait 🤗 I really miss the taste of basil so I prefer adding the leaves fresh rather than cook them with the sauce.The recipe is so easy because I used UnMeat and a prepacked bechamel sauce (cheater 😆) but hey it’s Holy Thursday and we need more time to reflect today.

For dessert today, chocolate biscoff brownies 🤗I initially thought that biscoff cookies will make these brownies super sweet but actually they cut the sweetness and added that crunchy texture.

It’s summer already and we can already feel the heat. Though it’s quarantine time currently, we can still be cheerful as summer means plenty of tropical fruits to enjoy. The best way for me to have the kids eat fruits, not only on summer, is by serving them in a fruit bowl – a bowl made of fresh fruit like papaya, watermelon or coconut.

Have you ever tried the combination of corn, chorizo and lime? I tried it as a soup for lunch today and it was a tummy-warming and filling starter for lunch today. Thanks to Ajinomoto seasoning that made my soup so much tastier with its umami flavor.
