It was my long-time wish to go to The Dessert Museum. Though I’ve seen so many posts about the museum and heard about how the backdrops are already overexposed in social media, I cared less because I thought, the photos we will be taking there will be OUR photos, not for any body else. I may be sharing some to my friends and of course in this blog, but it doesn’t mean that they will lose their value once the public has seen it. They will still be ours and will be precious memories that my family will cherish for a long time. Our...
When was the last time were you able to pause and think of the things you believe in? In my case, I just did, a few hours ago, after so many years. I was swept away by so many things, had no time to pause to even think of important matters which involved my inner self.

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...
Cooking oil is a basic ingredient in the kitchen and because of that, most moms don’t give much thought when buying them in the grocery. In the past, I did the same. I just pick whatever I see first or most of the times, I just went for the cheapest. It’s because they all look the same. Di ba, magkakakulay lang naman sila? But now, as my family gets bigger (in age and size), there’s a need to do more cooking. And as I spend more from the ingredients I use, I started to become more meticulous. When I buy something,...
Any child will find it delightful to bring a snackbox in school, on playdates, on fieldtrips or wherever they need to go where they will spend several hours away from Mommy. Kids and even teens are always hungry and they don’t stop munching. There are many advantages in packing a snackbox for kids rather than having them buy outside. Even a simple snackbox that contains selections that kids will most likely eat will do. You can be meticulous in packing it or just a simple straight from the wrapper packing will do. The important...

When was the last time you had healthy and nutritious breakfast? Or a breakfast that blows your mind away, makes you say ‘wow’? Of course, this breakfast has to be something that you can whip in a few minutes or else, we’ll skip breakfast and just want for the weekend and run to our favorite early breakfast diner. I’ve had this morning with my own salad-in-a-jar. It took me 15 minutes at most because of slicing part, plus I’m doing the laundry at the same time. But afterwards, I was able to enjoy a healthy...
