    Marugame Udon: my new go-to Japanese Resto

    I know I’ve said this a million times, but again, being a working mom is really exhausting. On weekdays, I go to work at 6am to avoid the heavy traffic, and I log out at around 5pm plus another 1 hour and a half for walking from the office to the FX terminal and waiting for my turn to have a seat, plus another 2 hours travel time. So that’s around 14 hours before I arrive home. Of all the kapoy and hassle and take-home stress, I really need to sometimes take a break. Every time I pass through the Glorietta foodcourt, I notice this Japanese restaurant full of people. One…

    Looking for something to spoil yourself with? Glazed by Mariella definitely won’t make you feel guilty

    With all I have been going though as a new mom, I take all the help I can get from family and friends just to forget everything that stresses me. Plus, as a working mom, I sometimes need to de-stress and spoil myself a little bit. So thanks to my friend Joy for providing me unlimited books (I need you forever, my friend), thanks Netflix for your new originals and new purchased films and series, thanks Mnemosyne for smiling at me everytime I kiss you, thanks besh Jian for the coffee, and thanks Mariella for the sweetest and yummiest treats everrr! I knew Mariella through my friend and manager, when…

    Foodtrip: a little trip in BGC

    One of my best friends is already leaving the Philippines to find true love (lol). But really, I’m going to miss you, beshie! But our little food trip wasn’t for his despedida. (May utang ka pa sakin, Tots!)  And since my BFF is “slowly fading away”, my invite for an “ultimate” foodtrip will be open to anyone. Are you interested? Haha! Well, I really am a foodie, and I like trying out unfamiliar food or restaurant. But I rarely go because I realized having a company or a food buddy is waaaaaay more fun. Pero bakit pa ba, hindi pa ba ako nadala at ayoko padin na mag-isa? Lol. This time, I tried out…
