National Book Store’s Grand Back To School Fair started Friday and ends on Sunday May 26, at the Glorietta 2 Activity Center, Palm Drive, in Makati City. We were one of the early birds last Friday because that’s how excited I was. I want to see the first stocks to be out that day and this is already my second time to attend an NBS Back To School Fair. You know how moms shop, right? It’s not enough for us to make a single trip around the venue. If we can see every nooks and cranny around the shop, we’ll do it, just...
Well, I am not exaggerating, really. I was still in high-school when I first saw Aladdin back in 1992 and I’ve watched it over and over again with my little girls. I fell in love with the movie, the soundtrack, and the characters. Who wouldn’t? Aladdin The Movie Official Poster This year, the movie’s music and story come to life on the big screen for the new generation. So I made sure that I see it on the advanced screening in 3D and with the whole family on its first day of showing. The live re-make was made as...
“If kids are much more involved in food preparation, then they truly get encouraged to eat more, which promotes good nutrition, plus they learn cooking early which is a very important life skill.” This is what Llena Tan-Arcena, the Culinary Services Manager of San Miguel Pure Foods told us when they hosted this year’s Kids Kitchen Camp held at the Makati Diamon Residences (MDR). SMPF Kids Kitchen Camp 2019 I couldn’t agree more. Teaching kids to cook early is teaching them different kinds of disciplines in...
I didn’t know anything nor was interested about taking in any kind of herbal drinks or supplements till I’ve read about wheat grass. There are just too many sources online that describes how healthy it is to include wheat grass in our meals. You can read some of these resources here and here. When I got hold of of Easy Pha-max and tried it myself (it’s a green dry powder), and drank it, I realized how easier it will be for me to make our meals and drinks a lot more healthier using Easy Pha-max. Easy Pha-max...
I’ve been indulging myself with gelatin desserts lately, because I can make them in seconds, I can control the sweetness, I can add any fruits that I want, and they are perfect to quench the summer heat. And because it will be Easter tomorrow, why not make frozen, cold, and sweet gelatin Easter eggs? Their colors made me excited and I know the kids will enjoy the fruity and milky flavors that I’m going to make. Gelatin Easter Eggs Delight – cold, sweet and fruity I didn’t have egg molds so I used the...
Taal Vista Hotel is in my bucket list of hotels for our family to experience. A birthday and a wedding anniversary celebration were worthy reasons for us to cross Taal Vista from our list this year. We got a lake view room through Agoda for around P8K. Was it worth it? Yes. The Taal Lake View The view from our room was how I expected the Taal Lake would be. It was magnificent. The balcony was just big enough for us to have a clear view of the active volcano within the lake. There were tables and chair for us to relax on while...
What can be more perfect to give as gift to moms than a heartwarming, ready-to-eat and artistically assembled fruits? When I received this pretty bouquet-in-a-mug of fruits from Fruits In Blooms, that was exactly how I felt – special. Photos aren’t enough for someone to be able to appreciate the beauty of a Fruits In Bloom creation. But I can attest that any mom will love to see that box, with transparent plastic, where she can see how pretty the bouquet is even without opening it. I was so excited to pull it out...
