Planning the unforeseen with Savings Calculator

Our life has to have a plan, elders taught us while growing up. But nobody told us that plans can only work in a climate of stability. The circumstances that the world witnessed in the last few years were certainly extraordinary. Aside from the pandemic which locked down and isolated most parts of the globe, the Russia-Ukraine war erupted just as recovery was within reach. Numerous disruptions to the supply chain can be blamed in part to the runaway inflation we are experiencing right now. Everyone's plans have been turned upside down. We can dispense a few tips on ...

Playing games while teaching kids about money

Mortgages - we need them but we don't really want them when it's time to pay. This is why we have to be financially literate about this matter. It's a big responsibility that no one can escape if one has decided to become an " adult." Depending on your loan term, it's something that we have to deal with for a long time, so it's much better to be fully prepared. In my internet quest to find out more about the subject, I came across this site which educates people about anything that's related to home mortgages. Anything you wanted to know about calculating your ... Continue Reading...

Sometimes I miss the cuisine of Singapore and Mala Sometimes I miss the cuisine of Singapore and Malaysia. Am glad there are restaurants in the city whenever I get intense #Asianfood cravings. Roti Shop in Rockwell is one of them #notsponsored.

Over the weekend, I convinced my friend Maricel to try the cendol (iced dessert similar to halo-halo) and the #roti paratha with curry sauce. And of course, who doesn't love Hainanese chicken rice and white coffee? 💯💕😋

#travelmemories🌍✈️ If there's a member of #travelmemories🌍✈️ 

If there's a member of my family who stayed the most time indoors during this #lockdown, it's my youngest Lucia. It's good she hasn't complained at all. When talking to her, am glad she only has the nicest recollection of our last trip a year ago in Taiwan. We went ahead with our flight even though there was already fear of the virus then.

My daughter is a picky eater, but I noticed when traveling, she is more adventurous with food. We  always have fun going through our Taiwan photo album and recalling the nice hostel we stayed in, the perfectly crunchy fried chicken and all those #memories. It certainly helps tide me through the sadness of the present

I swear I normally don't wear mini skirts (especially at this age 😃). But I guess it's true that people do things they don't usually do.... when #traveling ✈️🏯⛩️ We have to look special for our #ootd

P.S. I get sentimental looking at my #travel photos **sniff

We all know that we should practice proper hand hy We all know that we should practice proper hand hygiene to avoid getting sick. I have been doing this whenever I go out for errands. Thankfully, I have been healthy and not sick for a single day.  This only means that we really need to make handwashing a part of our lifestyle in the new normal, along with constant disinfection, wearing face masks and face shields and following social distancing protocols in common public areas.

Am glad there is a brand like Green Cross with a complete line of products to keep bacteria and viruses away. I always have #CleanHandsWithGreenCross anywhere I go. It's a good thing they have a handy alcohol and hand sanitizer which I always keep in my bag. And the whole family uses Green Cross Germ-Protection Soap which not only kills 99.9% of germs but also smells so good!

#life update: two of my kids are now living indepe #life update: two of my kids are now living independently and as a result of a more compact family, we no longer depend on a maid. This is a dedication post to my oldest daughter Dionne for being the rock I can count on. She's taking on more responsibilities these days with nary a complaint. I make sure I treat her once a week like ordering something online or buying her favorite cake. This Sunday found us having a mini-picnic outside eating the Acqua Pazza I cooked (poached fish in wine) and drinking Welch's Sparkling Rose. Not as fancy as fine dining, but it's always the little things that matter 💗💜🍇🍒🍹🥤

The ongoing pandemic has made moms like me more me The ongoing pandemic has made moms like me more meticulous about our family's health and hygiene. Am not the OC type but even a non-OC like me resolved to be careful and take extra precautions 😯😄

Zonrox products can kill the COVID-19 virus that's why I made sure we stocked on their products. I have been using my newest supermarket discovery, Zonrox Multi Clean in disinfecting high-touch surfaces. I love its fresh, long-lasting scent! 💗

Then I have my usuals, Zonrox Bleach Original and Zonrox Colorsafe to make our #laundry super clean and disinfected! These are staple items in my pantry which I can't live without!

We #DisinfectWithZonrox because an ounce of prevention is always better than a pound of cure. Let’s remember to always show our MALASAKIT to others because #TheVirusEndsWithUs!

Happy Year of the Ox to all my family, friends and business contacts 😊㊙️ Sharing this photo of the entrance to Manila's Chinatown. Existing since the 1500s, did you know this is the oldest #Chinatown in the world? It's always a delight to visit because of the #delicious food and bargain shopping finds 🧡 #Binondo #Ongpin #Manila #sinopinas #asia #philippines #culturetrip
My son, my unico hijo, finally graduated from coll My son, my unico hijo, finally graduated from college (he was delayed by a year). You can just imagine how happy and relieved I was. For his birthday today, I slaved away in the kitchen to serve #homemade treats to the son and his friends. The highlight was the Aussie rib eye steak ordered from @sebastiansbutcherbox . I served it in  two ways - with marbled potatoes and over alfredo pasta. I thought I overcooked the meat  but it still turned out amazingly flavorful and tender. It made everyone's day definitely! 🥩♨️💯

Moms like me have two main priorities right now: e Moms like me have two main priorities right now: ensuring the health of our family and saving up for the "uncertain" future. Personally,  am always on the lookout for products that bring the most value for money, especially when it comes to grocery shopping. 

It's a good thing I discovered the new Champion by Energen. It's only 8 pesos per 35g pack and is fortified with essential vitamins, iodine, folic acid and calcium. It also has egg, which is a good source of protein.

My youngest Lucia loves its #delicious taste but as an adult, I dig it too because it tastes exactly like #hotchocolate 🍩🍫🥤🧡💯

Do you appreciate being in your own country? I do. Do you appreciate being in your own country? I do. I love being in a tropical country where I don't have to work my arse off to pay high taxes. I do work so hard now to earn good money so I can afford state-of-the-art health insurance  and not  depend on a measly state pension.

Call me stupid for staying in good old #Pilipinas 🇵🇭💗However, migrating just to be an "ordinary worker" somewhere else may no longer be applicable in this borderless world. Am not saying NO to moving in the future, but it should be a place where I can fall in love with the culture, has cheap real estate and won't kill me with taxes left and right. Other countries in the #world are simply overrated 🌎✈️
