Board games are alive!It's been ages since the family played chess and Monopoly, and my favorite Scrabble.As a mom, I should be ashamed for not weaning my kids away from the iPad and all those computer games. There's really nothing like the board games to promote interaction, live excitement, strategy, logical reasoning and all the good stuff. Gladly, there's now an exclusive Board Game Lounge near where we live in the South and it's aptly called Puzzles. My lovely niece Arisa introduced me to this place because her bf, Roby, is one of the owners (they're all ... Continue Reading...
#RememberHaiyan : P&G reports on Project Hope
Yesterday, we were huddled in a conference room in Makati City watching a documentary on the victims of Supertyphoon Haiyan (also known as Yolanda) which ravaged eastern Visayas last year. Today, November 8, we say a prayer on the first year anniversary of that catastrophe and remember the countless lives (and livelihood) that were lost. The question on everyone's minds is: how are the affected and surviving families coping 365 days after Yolanda? How are they rebuilding their lives?

Kids’ costumes at Halloween 2014 in Manila
A surprising turn: I seemed to be more excited with Halloween this year than Christmas which is now 55 days away! Blame it on The Toddler who likes to a) dress up and b) eat candies like there's no toothache tomorrow. Am mostly an onlooker and I really like Halloween for the creative effort and variety behind all the costumes. I can't even imagine how some people make a 'career' out of it, even the adults.Manila's Halloween parties are the most fun there is. For Lucia, the fun started with a Trick or Treat event in my workplace. We just picked out a 'goddess' ... Continue Reading...
