When it comes to taking care of the baby, moms always take the driver seat. Oftentimes, dads just come follow the mom’s lead. But hey, that doesn’t mean dads can’t do anything when it comes to the tiniest human in the household. Check out this PR from Makuku Philippines: Dads may feel a little left […]

I rarely travel with yayas. Although they make my life easier in taking care of the kids, I prefer to leave them behind especially when we’re going on a vacation. For me, I prefer that we spend some alone time with the kids once in a while. Still, I’m willing to make an exception if […]

My youngest daughter was never a fan of reading. In fact, she loathes it. As much as I want to turn her into a bookworm – or at least pick up a book – I figured forcing her will make her want to hate reading more. So, I didn’t forced the issue and just let […]

Here’s something you should know about me: I lost track of the number of household helpers we had. In the five years that my husband and I are living together, I could say that we have close to 20 helpers already, one even lasted for less than 24 hours! When our last yaya said goodbye […]
Did I mention I am yaya-less for the past few weeks? Despite the extra work at home, being yaya-less could be liberating, which means there is privacy too. Apparently for me, this means my OCD is making its way again. As soon as our yaya left, I am on a mission to keep everything clean […]
We take reading seriously. Aside from English literature, I always make it a point to buy Filipino books because: I want the kids to be more familiar and well-versed in Filipino; Filipino books are great instruments in introducing our history, culture, and tradition to the younger generation; and We also want to support local publishers […]
One of my kids favorite places is Kidzoona primarily because they get to play and move. Let’s face it: Kidzoona is often crowded. Try going there by 12 noon and you’ll see the place slowly getting filled with people. One time, instead of going to Solenad in Nuvali, we decided to check out Vista Mall […]
During my short stint in the corporate world, I was lucky to get assigned in Tomas Morato area. Everything is walking distance and most of the time, my colleagues and I’s problem is “Saan tayo kakain?” Aside from the strip in the Tomas Morato itself, we love exploring the insides of the Scout areas and […]
It’s been a while since I last posted a recipe. Since I am currently yaya-less, I am officially in charge of doing the cooking. This also means I have to whip dishes that are quick and easy to do since I still have two kids trolling along, plus online work and gazillion household chores I […]
I’ve been hearing a lot about Stacy’s from friends and relatives since two years ago. Because of busy schedule, I wasn’t able to find time and was only able to visit the place last Friday, October 4. My sisters, daughter and I decided to check out the place in Capitol Hills one afternoon. When I […]
Photo from photolibrarian, Creative Commons, Flickr Okay, don’t get me wrong here. I love my husband, I really do. Despite all our misunderstandings and arguments about issues I can’t remember anymore, I will always appreciate the things he do for me and the girls. And yes, he really is a loving, supportive one so kudos […]
Previously, I shared about the different works I did that allowed me to become financially independent even if I am a stay-at-home mom. Right now, I said goodbye to the freelance world to focus on our retail store. As much as I love being in control of my own time, my weekly schedule includes trips […]
I love tofu, whether fried, baked, or even steamed. When I was younger, I remember my lola making this tofu dish with oyster sauce, garlic, and some herbs I can’t recall. I could finish an entire plate of tofu in just one sitting, she had to set aside for other people in the house. LOL I wasn’t […]
