We’ve got a resident Potterhead at home! Reese has grown up to be a reader, as I’ve written about before and her sustained interest in books is something her Dad and I couldn’t be any happier about. She’s like any normal child these days, she gravitates towards her ipad and phone, but I see she […]
A Manam Potluck Party
During our Sunday family lunches, we rarely (or never) volunteer to cook because we want to just relax and focus on enjoying everyone’s company. Usually on Sundays the helpers are on day-off, and we resort to doing potluck. Except for Tonette, my brother’s wife, who can whip up any dish without even thinking, Jaymie (my […]
Mega Food Hall Food Faves
We have our favorite food haunts, and when we like something, we keep coming back to it and everybody’s happy. There are times though when our taste buds don’t jive and we can’t seem to agree on where to eat. So when there is no special occasion, and we just want to get our fill, […]
Skin Health Inside and Out
Running and being part of a community of moms and moms-to-be keeps me constantly in the loop on the adventures of different stages of motherhood. Raising children come with never ending challenges, with each stage bringing different concerns altogether. Majority of Mommy Mundo moms are younger than I am and also have younger children, so […]
Spreading the Jolly Joy
One thing I love as a Jolly ambassador is that I got the opportunity to contribute to Jolly’s thrust to help educate the youth who are about to step into the food and hospitality industry. Being and interacting with students has always been a refreshing experience and I consider it a great way to spread […]
Mott’s Cooking in My Kitchen
I made a healthier version of chicken nuggets! It’s a recipe created by nutritionist Cheshire Que, and I’m loving it because the kids love chicken nuggets (or anything chicken for that matter!) The recipe was published in the Mott’s Recipe book which was launched at the Mott’s Family Fun Day last summer at Boni High […]
Our Quill Awards Milestone
So this happened last May and it is still all so surreal. While I was on our family vacation in Canada when Mommy Mundo garnered recognition at the Philippine Quill Awards 2015 for our campaign the #MomManifesto : A Journey to Mindful Motherhood. Sharing these photos taken by my friend and content head of Mommy […]
Demystifying LASIK (Part 2 of 2)
It’s now been almost three months since I had my Refractive LASIK surgery and till now, I can hardly believe that I have said goodbye to glasses and contacts and that my eyesight has actually gone back to 20-20, as certified by my last eye check up at the Asian Eye Institute. I’ve been excited […]
Tips to Skin Health
I agree with the saying that “beauty is only skin deep”, that the real beauty of a person is her character and values, but I also believe in the saying that “first impressions last”. So while we know there is more to a person than her physical attributes, her outfits and appearance, it’s still important […]
Me and My #HavaianasSquad
Havaianas has always been part of our family life, at least the past 11 years, since it landed in the country from the shores of Brazil and we’ve been fortunate enough to be part of its history as one of our country’s most well-loved brands. Our events agency, Creative Juice was in its infancy stages […]
