I'm a NEW Mom Again!
Wednesday, September 14, 2016I still remember clearly how I carried him for nine months in my womb. I still remember how much in pain I was during my 20 hour labor and ...
As I've shared in this blog before, I was a single mom to him. So I played the roles of both a mom and a dad. From a stay-at-home-mom I took an entry level marketing job to be able to support him. I didn't complain that I was earning little because what's important for me was I was able to spend a lot of time with him in the morning before going to work. Since it was an entry-level job, I didn't have to render overtime so I always went home early to bond with him endlessly. I was a young mom and had a lot of energy for play. I could say he got the best of my younger years because I carried him a lot, rolled on the floor with him, went to many places even when we commuted, and played so many games from rough to quiet board games. I was never absent in his school activities. Those were very simple and happy times bringing him up as a child.

My Baby Was Confined!
Thursday, September 08, 2016I have three children now. Yes. For some, that means more wisdom in parenting, more motherhood experiences, and qualified to be called an ...
Just recently, I made a big mistake.
That mistake cost my baby's first ever hospital confinement and my and my husband's first ever experience having our child confined, worse as young as two months old in age. None of our children were ever confined due to illness or accident, but my big mistake broke that record.
Here's the diagnosis: Acute Gastroenteritis.
Our Filippo Berio Chili Cheesy Pork Lumpia Pesto Recipe
Friday, September 02, 2016Whenever we host a gathering of family or friends, one topic never fails to come up, home-cooked meals. Well, I do cook the usual family fa...
How could a Lumpia be so healthy? It was fried using Filippo Berio Olive Oil. And wait a minute, did I hear Pesto? Yes you're correct, that's the twist to this recipe, a different variety of Pork Lumpia. We used Filippo Berio Pesto for this new Lumpia recipe. Wait, there's more, did you also say Chili and Cheesy? YES I did.. it may seem like a confusing mix of ingredients but I tell you, not that I'm being biased, it's bursting with flavor which you'd need extra rice to go with it. Now, let me share with you our special recipe.
