Our toddler misses the beach. She’s been asking us when the Covid-19 virus will be gone so she can finally swim and play in Boracay (the last beach she went to). 😂🏖 Though I patiently explain to her why we can’t go to the beach or any other public place yet, I know in my…

Creating Cookies and Cream Ref Cake with Nestle All Purpose Cream
I saw a photo of Millennial Moms PH creating Mango Graham Icedrops, and it inspired me to #createwithcream once again. 👩🍳 I’ve been using Nestle Cream to make ref cakes since I was still single. Of course, it’s the easiest dessert to make, right? 😅 But with the right amount of Nestle cream mixed with…
Life lesson from a quarantine summer
This magnificent mango tree is the scenic view closest to Masungi Georeserve that we can enjoy this quarantine summer. 🌳 🌤 Every morning, Tash and I will open our room window, stare at this beauty, greet it good morning, count the birds that fondly nestle on its strong branches and marvel at the many fruits…

HiPP Organic Kindermilk for children 3 yrs and above
When my daughter was 1 year old and I was still a full-time working mom, I used to give my child HiPP Organic baby food. I discovered the brand while checking out the drug store for organic food for little ones. As a first-time mom, I did my online research about it and found out…
NEW Joy Baby Dishwashing Liquid
Isang patak, tanggal ang sebong sangkatutak! 😍 No doubt, Joy Dishwashing Liquid has provided many homemakers effortless dishwashing experience with just one powerful drop. I can attest to that because as a teenager less than 20 years ago, Joy really made my dishwashing “training” super easy and somehow enjoyable. Now that I’m in my 30s,…
Children’s Swimming Lessons with Coach Chito Rivera
One of my “frustrations” in life is not being a good swimmer. 🏊♀️ Well, if we will stick to the basic definition of “swim” which is to propel one’s body through water, then I can say that I can swim. However, I never learned the proper way of swimming — the correct breathing, arm movements…
Toilet Training using the Potette Plus — Trainer Seat and Potty Chair in One
I’ve been wanting to get rid of diapers in our life (to save Mother Earth and money), but then our little girl is slowly and sweetly taking her time in toilet training. She’s 3, and she’s not ashamed to admit that she’s still comfy in wearing a diaper. After I’ve tried all the tips I…
A confident mother is a requirement to raise a positive and courageous child #FilipinaBeautyJourney
Fair and flawless skin. Long legs. Sexy body. Chiseled cheekbones. Let’s be honest. In the Philippines, we were made to think that beauty is confined to these few physical characteristics. What we don’t realize is that, in other parts of the world, there are people who will pay just to have our skin color. Somewhere…

BE IN THE MOMENT: Life lesson from children
In a generation where multitasking has become a way of life, practicing mindfulness is something easier said than done. Though I have read a lot of articles about it and attended quite a few events that promote it, being mindful is still something I find hard to consistently do. As a work-at-home mom, I try…
NEW Pampers Sensitive Wipes
One of the baby products that I can’t live without is the baby wipes. Since Tash was a newborn until now that she’s an active toddler, the mighty wipes has been a big help during cleaning time.

Shopping for baby products at Watsons
When I was still single, it was my habit to shop at Watsons every after payday. Right after withdrawing cash from the ATM, my officemates and I would go straight to the Watsons branch near our office to buy my ever reliable wipes and our other girly needs (and wants). 💅💄 Then, single life ended…

Benefits of Drinking DG Goat Milk
My husband used to tell me that, when he was a child, he only drank goat’s milk. He was allergic to the popular milk brands in the market so his parents made him drink goat’s milk. Based on this picture, I must say goat’s milk made him one very healthy kid! 👍🏻 I used to…
Fight Maternal Nutrient Deficiency
This photo was taken 3 years ago, a few weeks before I gave birth to our daughter Natacia. 🤰🏻 Pregnancy taught me to embrace a healthy diet (or at least try). Nutrition is very important for a soon to be mom. Whatever I ate affected not only my health but also my baby’s development. Every time…
