Stories I tell my son: The Moon’s Keeper

Friday, July 15th, 2011

Tweet This is the beginning of a compilation of stories I tell my son. They’re stuff I just make up on a whim, not unlike the stories I remember by Dad telling me when I was a kid. I don’t know if Timmy will remember these stories (he’s only 1!), so this is my way [...]

My Ensogo Experience

Tuesday, July 12th, 2011

Tweet I’ve been seeing a lot of advertising for online discount coupon sites. Frankly, I was a bit intimidated by them. Are they easy to use? Can they be trusted? My friends have been huge fans of the service for ages, but I didn’t try it till this weekend. Ensogo was the first site I [...]

Monday, July 11th, 2011

Tweet Butter biscuits for your toddler? Why not? If he’s as picky as my little one, biscuits are a big meal miracle. If they’re butter ANIMAL biscuits, even better.

Froyo Fix

Thursday, July 7th, 2011

Tweet I’m a sucker for frozen yogurt. Oh yeah. While ice cream trumps froyo most of the time, it’s harder for me to resist a frozen yogurt stand. It’s a cold and healthy fix that’s why! Plus there are a lot of toppings. I love the feeling of not knowing which topping to get (unless [...]


Meeting blogger Frannywanny

Wednesday, July 6th, 2011

Tweet “Where have we met before?” “Maybe one event. But I can’t remember which one.” “You know, maybe we haven’t met yet. We just feel like we have because we interact a lot online.” So went part of my conversation with blogger Frannywanny. We had a good laugh over that. I love meeting bloggers whose [...]

Mangga’t Suman Ice Cream from Sebastian’s

Friday, July 1st, 2011

Tweet It really does taste like ripe mango and suman. If only I could let you dive into the picture and taste what I tasted. It was damn good. Sebastian’s Mangga’t Suman ice cream is really made with sticky rice stewed in coconut cream. Even if it’s cold and creamy, you still get that sticky [...]
