Text and photos by annalyn.net contributor Angelique Misa Kids, especially during the early childhood stage, will begin to assert independence by choosing what toy to play, what to place inside their mouth, what to wear and walking away from their mom. They become more engaged with the people around them. And in this case, as a parent, you can't help but worry about your kid. The growing up years of children will always be a primary concern of parents. This is why Nido held a press event for the campaign of NIDO 3+ at Chef Jessie Restaurant in Rockwell Center ...

Rose Fostanes : “I did it my way!”
This day has been busy with a visit to the Makati Med emergency room to have my youngest daughter checked.So yes, I only learned late this afternoon that Pinay caregiver Rose Fostanes was declared the grand winner of X Factor Israel. In a previous post, we already anticipated her win and in Rose's audition video, it was almost like she had a premonition about her success: "Maybe if I join and win in this competition my life will change.” My online friend Reyna Elena's friendly advice to Rose is to stay grounded and it makes sense (just don't let Kim Henares come & ...

Those funny Pinoy business names
I've been seeing a lot of funny business signs/business names in Parañaque City lately. When I was just new to the area, it was just Robocock, a small chicken feeds store which has since been bulldozed & replaced by an SM Hypermarket.

(buhok in Filipino is hair) Potential copyright issue here but I don't think a big name like Starbucks should even bother. This salon is ... Continue Reading...
Village food: Greek Taverna Restaurant
Despite being in Metro Manila's far South, I am still thankful for little blessings. Like being 15 minutes away from the airports. And eating 'international' food when I want to, without having to go to the major malls, the Fort or Makati. Greek Taverna has been my favorite 'village' restaurant in Parañaque city for the past year and somehow, I've never written about it. Now time to divulge the secret: am at the stage in my life when I really love Mediterranean food - how it uses basic ingredients while being tasty and allowing the natural flavors to come out, with ...

Homemade bangus sardines
Expect more recipe posts here because my New Year's resolution is to eat in more, rather than eat out, and I will be sharing my discoveries along the way ;) Right after the gluttony of the holidays, the usual tendency is to go meatless. It so happens that I really love our native milkfish, bangus. I dig its delicate flavor & the fact that it goes well with any type of cooking - whether mixed with vinegar (as paksiw), soy sauce (bistek) or simply pan-fried. Here's another variation..cooked in olive oil, or what's commonly called bangus sardines. This is usually sold ... Continue Reading...
