As some of you might know, I have been running lately. It’s kind of the “in” thing to do lately. Which is a good trend because I have noticed a lot of people waking up to the reality that if they don’t exercise, they won’t get any fit at all. Anyway, I’m back to being [...]
On Candy and Make-Up I usually don’t buy my own make up. I make use of whatever my mom and her sisters have. They have tons of make-up from different brands that could kill my wallet and credit card and buy them myself. I’d be exposed to these brands just because of them. A lot [...]

I have made a lot of decisions about love, career and money this year. Luck has a peculiar habit of favoring those who don’t depend on it, and I’m one of those people. I believe in hardwork and working for what you want more than luck. But this year, it has been on my side, winning [...]
To my non-Filipino friends and readers, I will share to you one popular Christmas tradition here in the Philippines. To my Filipino folks, may this remind you of our beautiful festive culture.
It may be the season of gift-giving or Santa Claus but if there’s one thing Filipinos can relate to more than anything, it’s the food.
That’s why during this time of the year, the spotlight is, more than ever, on the kitchen creativity of females who are tasked to concoct sumptuous Noche Buena dishes for the whole family. For most Pinoys, togetherness and merriment during Christmas means bonding over yummy feasts in a roomful of family and friends. Or that was how it used to be until the recent onslaught of typhoons that destroyed homes and took lives of many Filipinos.
One random boring Friday with all the energy still stored up in my body waiting to be released, I asked my good friends for a Banchetto night. Banchetto is a food market bazaar every Friday night to Saturday morning in Ortigas Emerald Ave. Banchetto is actually an itallian word for “feast.” I’m so glad there’s a feast [...]
