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...

Have you ever visited a Baby Company store? My babies are now grown up but we still do visit the store nearest to us when we need to buy gifts for inaanak or for babies of our family friends. Baby Company had been my favorite store ever since for baby products and I remember my husband I bought our baby cribs and strollers here, not to mention the pillows, baby bottles, toys and so many onesies for our little girls way back then. Recently, we had been invited to witness the opening of Baby Company in Powerplant Mall, Rockwell Center. It...

I have always heard about how good it is to shop at Cherry Foodarama since I was small. Imagine, Cherry had been in the business since the ’50’s and yet the sound of the name still brings the same feeling of celebration, food (“foodarama”) and sweetness (“cherry). Last October 13, I was fortunate to witness the re-opening of Cherry Shaw which closed months before, to open as a brighter, more vibrant shopping site for its loyal shop goers. The big red name of the store outside at the top of the building seemed...
