To make the event more meaningful, children from a selected beneficiary will be given a chance to personally meet Disney characters Mickey Mouse and Donald...
I was obliged to write this post hoping to inspire moms not to forget the importance of going out and taking in at least 5-15 minutes of morning sunshine daily. I can attest to this because I myself needed enough sunlight to battle against my mild psoriasis. I had been neglecting being outside of the house lately and so, when my psoriasis flared up, my skin wasn’t able to withstand. My face was red and flaking for several days. Though people who have similar skin deficiencies like me are advised against too much sun, phototherapy...
This week, we had to make an errand and had to make some quick plans to go to Bonifacio Global City. As this place is way far from home, we thought to take advantage of the trip by visiting some places there before we go home. After all, it’s the kids semestral break. From Fairview, QC to BGC We went out from home 5:30am and was there at BGC by 7:00AM by car. It was a weekday, Friday, and traffic was light to moderate during those hours. We took the Katipunan route since it was sembreak and there were no traffic caused by Ateneo....
You may have already heard about “climate change” a lot. Every time there’s a storm, we hear in the news that “global warming” had already altered our weather that much that it’s now impossible to predict if it’s going to rain or not even if it is supposed to be a rainy season. But one thing is for sure, we have a part in bringing these weather changes, because of our irresponsible use of natural resources. The good thing is, apparently, more and more people are now realizing that we can all do...
I’ve heard of several people, some closed to us, who have passed away because of hypertension. This All Soul’s Day, as we remember our loved ones, I thought might as well give some tips to prolong our lives. After all, we moms surely wish that we will live long enough to see our grand kids. Good health starts at home, specifically in the kitchen. I found out that most of the vegetables which can help us lower cholesterol and prevent hypertension can be easily be sourced from our local markets. Most of them we can use as staple...
Halloween is one of the most awaited days of our kids and to keep with the tradition and of course, to make our kids happy, we usually give them candies. Where do you think this tradition of giving candies came from? According to Wikipedia, “The custom of trick-or-treating at Halloween may come from the belief that supernatural beings, or the souls of the dead, roamed the earth at this time and needed to be appeased.” When the kids pose and wear something like these ghosts, they become protected from being harmed from these...
Have you tasted Red Ribbon’s Classic Polvoron? You must and I guarantee you won’t regret it. I used to ignore these treats before when I go to Red Ribbon to buy a cake roll or pastillas which happened to be my kids’ favorites. My husband asked me to buy some for him and that’s when we discovered, masarap pala sya! Every bite you take is creamy and the polvoron is quite solid and doesn’t crumble easily. According to Zinnia Rivera, general manager of Red Ribbon, the Classic Polvoron offers just the right amount...
