It’s the start of summer vacation although my kids school activities aren’t over. As it is the Holy Week, we went to the church for our devotional stations of the cross, and then went home. We don’t have anything sweet to eat for dessert or something for snacks so I decided to bake some brownies. I have a big pack of Milo from Robinsons Supermarket...
This crispy fried fish dish will be loved by everyone at home, including the kids. Tried and tested! May it be Lent or not, for lunch, dinner or just for snacking, you can serve this pan-fried dory and you won’t have enough of it, promise. I suggest dory fish fillet and not any other fish since I find fresh dory as delicious, cheaper than any other fish, and...
Quezon City residents has one big reason to celebrate as National Bookstore has established its institution for higher learning within Quezon City. NBS College is located on the 3rd and 4th floors of the National Book Store Building.

I am more fond of getting a body scrub service rather than massage. It’s because I feel its what I really need. When I take a bath, it’s hard for me to scrub my back and I am not comfortable using loofah. So I really need someone to scrub my body from time to time. I also feel na nama-massage na din ako through a body scrub service. But whether you like...
Catsup, ketsap, ketchup, no matter how you spell it, banana catsup it is in the Philippines. Yes, there’s tomato catsup but as far as I can remember since I was born, it’s banana catsup that I see in our cupboard and in the restaurants. Most of us Pinoys want banana catsup as “sawsawan” lalo na when it comes to fried food (potato fries, fried chicken, fried pork etcetera). At home, I always make sure that I have a bottle of UFC banana catsup or else, I’ll hear from my husband and kids. I remember when...
I’m more of a cologne person and not so of the perfumes and because we have quite a bit of sensitive noses, I pick our colognes carefully. Though most baby colognes are described as mild, not all of them are truly mild. Some still have scents that are too strong and some even stings my skin, and some of the scents I’ve tested before were not even for babies. But Bambini’s scents are all baby friendly and fresh and so when I heard that that they are having this Family Bootcamp, I thought my kids and I should be there. The...

Ingredients: 1 cup sweetened cocoa 1.5 cup white sugar 2 cups all purpose flour 1 tbsp baking powder 1/2 tsp salt 1/2 cup vegetable oil 4 medium eggs 2 tbsp vanilla extract powdered sugar for coating and sprinkling 1....
I’ve always thought that there’s not much difference between different kinds of bottled water. As long as it is clean and potable, it’s fine with me. And since type and brand were not that important to me before, I just look at the price tag first. You know, the cheaper the better. Oh but before I forget, there’s also another thing that’s...
