Whenever we talk, some of my fellow moms complain how difficult it is to dress the kids because the latter's so choosy with what they wear. Thankfully, I've never had a problem with any of my children. But of course the No. 1 rule for fashion no matter what the age is to always stay on the safe side: nothing too loud, ostentatious or overly cutesy. I was certainly happy to discover Zippy - a leading kids' apparel brand from Portugal which has now set up shop in Manila. It was love at first sight when my 6 year old daughter and I previewed the line at their first ... Continue Reading...
Kojie San : the fave brand of Pinays to lighten skin
Product overload! This is how bloggers like me sometimes feel when a lot of samples are sent our way. Out of so many labels in the market, how do you tell the chaff from the grain? In this day and age, going viral through social media is the new 'word of mouth.' Still, there are brands who have solidly built their reputation through the years. In fact, there's a rare few who have gained a cult following. When it comes to beauty and skin care, Kojie San comes to mind.

In Parañaque : Confusion Diner, BF Homes
There are a few perks I can think of when it comes to living in the South of Metro Manila. One of them is free parking (!!) in commercial establishments. Yes, even in some of the SM malls.

The area can really pride itself of outstanding home cooks, oftentimes self-taught out of sheer passion for all things culinary. One new place that we can vouch for because we've ...

GSK Expert Moms on summer cough and allergies
As a mom, nothing depresses me more than when my kids get sick. No matter how we shelter them or take the necessary precautions, we can't help external factors like a virus going around in school and other public places. Last March 30, pharmaceutical company GlaxoSmith Kline created the GSK Expert Moms campaign to enable parents like us to exchange information on how best to fight common seasonal childhood diseases, especially now that summer is in full swing. One of the celebrity moms involved in the campaign is TV host and actress Rica Peralejo-Bonifacio who ... Continue Reading...
Reclining great Buddha at Nanzoin Temple, Japan
It was our last day in Fukuoka. Our flight was still in the evening and we were figuring out what to do. My companion Shiela decided to explore Canal City (essentially a huge shopping mall) while I travelled by my lonesome on a JR train to see the giant Buddha of Nanzoin. Kido-Nanzoinmae is a sleepy town located about 20 minutes by train from Fukuoka. Most people overlook this in their itinerary when visiting the Kyushu islands of Japan (of which Fukuoka is a part). Am so glad I took the time because the surroundings of the Nanzoin temple were so refreshing and the ... Continue Reading...
