My baby A is turning three this December and by next school year, we are planning to enroll her for preschool. I was super excited to go preschool hopping and see how my daughter will fare compared to kids her age. At the same time, I want to see how she interacts with other kids […]
I never really worried about real property taxes and other grown up stuff. Living with my parents for 23 years made my life easier and more convenient. Of course, I had to move out when I got married, which means I have to take care of my own home, including payment of property tax. After doing […]
Are you heading somewhere with the family this coming Semestral Break? Surely, you got everything prepared – hotel accommodation, plane ticket (if you’re travelling by plane), and even what to bring and wear. Your kids even made their own countdown calendar, which adds to the excitement. Before you enjoy your upcoming vacation, have you considered […]
I love travelling. I love the idea of visiting a new place, enjoying the community, trying new food, and being away from home even for a few days. Let’s admit it. Travel and saving are two concepts which often don’t go well together. When I was younger (and still living with my parents), travelling was […]
There’s mango overload at home. I already ate it as it is (everyday), made mango shake (every other day) and used it for mango-banana float since I don’t like throwing food away. I even gave out mangoes to my parents and neighbors since we can’t finish everything with only three adults in the house. My […]
I’ve been reading a couple of articles about Paper Moon. I wanted to try it as soon as I can because a) I love crepe, b) I love cake, and c) I’m curious. I remembered tasting one from a popular coffee shop and didn’t like it at all. I was seriously hoping this one won’t […]
My eldest daughter is currently in Kindergarten. Before their semestral break, she was already introduced to the concept of addition and subtraction. To help her understand the concept, I used Lego and popsicle sticks since it could be challenging for a child to visualize the concept of adding and taking away numbers. She was able […]
My daughter had their rehearsal at Bulwagang Claret for their Moving Up Day. Since the teachers agreed that no parents and guardians will stay inside the venue, my sister and I decided to go around Maginhawa Street and look for a place to stay and kill time. Then we found Caffera. I read about Caffera many […]
Work, kids’ activities, and the Holiday season are getting in the way the past few weeks that I wasn’t able to cook “properly.” I’ve been cooking the same quickie meals and re-heating leftover foods to save time and so I can focus on other tasks (like laundry!). Thankfully, I was able to slow things down […]

It’s almost summer time! Where are you going for a quick getaway with the family? Wherever you are heading, it is really important to book as early as now since summer can be a pretty busy season for most hotels and resorts in the country. I bet a lot of hotels are fully booked already. […]
I can’t wait for that day when I have to enroll my kids, buy them supplies and bags for school, bring them to school and teach them. Finally, it’s here. Indeed, time flies really fast when you have a child! Choosing a school was not an easy task for me. We have to hop from one […]
Kids are growing up too fast these days. At one point, they are just crying and pooping machines and the next thing you know, they can do things on their own and speak up their mind. This is why my husband and I always make it a point to spend time with the kids as […]
I love the beach. SO MUCH – and especially during my dalaga days. When the husband and I were invited by his good friend to go to his wedding in Batangas, we immediately said yes. We get to see his friends and at the same time, an opportunity to spend some time together as husband and wife. Unfortunately, […]
