Hi there! I am Ayi, a former law student turned stay-at-home mom / freelance writer. I have two adorable and pretty girls who means more than anything in this world and a loving husband who encourages me to do well in life. I decided to create this blog to share about my experiences as a […]
Finally, a weekend getaway. My kids, especially my eldest, are currently addicted to the zoo. Since it was my mom and sister’s birthdays and there is a zoo up north with more animals and activities compared to the one in Tagaytay, we decided it could be a good opportunity to have a weekend away from […]
I need to get some things done at home so I decided to pop the Frozen DVD on the player to keep my girls still and behaved. Thankfully, it worked. This is the usual scenario at home. My girls are into Disney movies that they even memorized the songs from Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast, […]
There are many things married couples should look into and decide on: family home, child’s education, how to raise kids, savings account, and yes, a family car. A family car. Personally, I do not consider car as an investment. The moment it steps out of the casa, the value immediately depreciates. Once you decide to sell it, […]
When I found out I was pregnant, I can’t help but think about this million-dollar question: who will be my child’s ninongs and ninangs? The tradition of choosing godparents date back to the early days of Catholic Church in consonance with the sacrament of Baptism. Since then, godparents became crucial in helping parents raise a child […]
I love pasta in all forms. Since then, I prefer cooking my own pasta meals instead of buying from restos. It was a good thing my husband loves pasta too, which makes it easier for me in the kitchen since I am not the best cook around. Few weeks ago, we attended our neighbor’s birthday […]

My husband and I love eating out. On date nights, we enjoy trying out new restaurants and getting back to old favorites. Now that we have two kids tagging along, it is hard (and stressful!) to eat out. What we do is we just buy ingredients from the grocery and cook at home. One of […]
I just realized that I’ve been working as a freelance writer for almost three years now. So far, this “career” helped me manage my personal needs and the earnings are good enough to allow me to splurge on my kids. Being a freelance writer also opened different opportunities for me and it makes me feel […]
If there is something I can eat everyday, it’s Spanish food. Growing up with my lola around, I got used to the smell of Paella, arroz ala cubana, croquettes and salpicao in our home. Since then, Spanish food always made me feel like home and reminds me of my lola’s cooking. Sometime last week, I […]
I didn’t have much time to prepare for my eldest’s baptism. In fact, I was only able to plan everything in one week – and that includes Church, inviting the godparents, reception and tokens. It wasn’t a big celebration but… Continue reading →
