Do you still remember Yakult?
I think the very first big scientific term I learned was “lactobacillishirotastrain.” And then I remember seeing a commercial which had several frames on a microscopic view of something (lactobacilli I guess?) and thinking yuckkkk! But that was good bacteria, the ad explained. I don’t remember exactly what the ad said [...]

I was stuck at work yesterday when Milenyo made his grand entrance. The sound of the winds were rattling the office windows. My officemates and I could see the clouds racing through the sky. The power would fluctuate every 20 minutes. It was pretty scary. When I was finally able to get out of the [...]

Here’s a good place to get dessert — Crazy Crepes at the Ground Level of the new Virra Mall in Greenhills. The mock-ups of the different crepe servings caught my attention. It was like a mini-wax musuem of crepes. Each mock-up had the name of the crepe, a quick description of what was in it, [...]

Ria: “Hindi ko nga alam eh! Yun sa ‘yo?”
Toni: “Siguro. Yun turquoise bracelet ko, para daw yun for correcting body aligment and eye disorders… eh… okay naman ako ngayon. [...]

Can I just say that I love my husband very much?
He always makes sure I’m well-fed even if I say I’m watching my diet. He makes me laugh when I’m in the sourest of moods, teaching me not to be too high-strung. He pampers me like a little princess and puts up with my mood [...]

1. Drinking a mug of Nesvita Pro-Digestion is part of my bedtime ritual. I use the single-serve packs because they’re more convenient — just open it, pour the contents into a mug of hot water and mix. It does help with my tummy troubles, [...]

Yummy food post alert! H and I went to Flavours of China a couple of months ago, but I didn’t get to write about it. I took some pictures of our delicious food and ta-da! I’m sharing them with you now. Sarap ‘no?

The past two weeks have been too damn crazy. Over the last fourteen days, I’ve been receiving news of friends who have gotten sick or friends whose relatives have passed away. Six of those were news on passing away, one was news on a friend in a coma. Brain tumors, severe [...]
