Surfing? Me??

Sago is organizing a surfing class for none swimmers like me.
But I decided to brave the waves so to speak and give it my best shot. I still need to do a lot of things. I need to brave the traffic and go to a place where they have it all. Where is that you may ask? Why SM of course.

After my 1st Surfing trip (if I make it out alive that is). I plan to buy a small trinket from BICO as a sort of gift to myself for a job well done

Bisolvon





The “Bisolvon bilis – alis ubo ng Pamilya” Family Day was organized as part of the brand’s efforts to strengthen Bisolvon’s image as the “Family cough medicine” that families can trust through the years. Over time, the brand has been recognized as one of the pioneers in the cough medicine industry, as it has proven its value through the years, already existing for more than 4 decades today (40+ years).

Given this, the event held last July 3 – 5 in the SM Mall of Asia was slated to further establish Bisolvon as the “family cough medicine” by encouraging families to spend quality time bonding with each other through joining the three-day “Bisolvon family day”. In the process, this will thus re-acquaint the doting mom – and – kid pairs to the family brand that is Bisolvon. Through this effort, the brand hopes to forge a strong attachment of the brand’s identity to the idea of being the cough medicine for the whole family.

Apart from this, the event also served as the launch of the quarter – long below – the – line activations of Bisolvon, which will be in the form of school road shows, barangay roadshows, and pharmacy roadshows.

Relaxing Day at A Home Spa


After a grueling and stressful week at work, there is nothing more enticing than going to a spa for rest and relaxation to renew the spirit. Most especially for frazzled working moms like me. The thought of the foot massage, back massage and one of a kind facials. Spells total relaxation!!!I know that going to the spa once in awhile to treat themselves is ideal. But who could afford to do that right.

But If I could just afford it. I would certainly want to have a spa party that would be at the at the convenience of my home. Who would have thought that it would be impossible. But leave it to Carlo and Lil to make that happen.

They promise to give you the total spa experience and they totally delivered. They totally gave us a sneak peek of what it's like when you hire them. I'm sure that it will be money well spent who wouldn't want to be a guest at their own party.


We were definitely treated like royalty, we were pampered and we were really in pure spa bliss!!


If you are ready to experience the ultimate spa party experience. Send Lil and Carlo at caprichosaspa@gmail.com or try out what they have to offer you can visit Caprichosa Day Spa, 126 Armstrong Ave. Moonwalk Village Phase 1, Paranaque City, Philippines

Spain Tourism Board brings the finest Spanish food in Manila

It was an evening any foodie or accomplished cook would love --- a showcase of the finest, authentic Spanish food presented by none other than the Spain Tourism Board. Held in conjunction with the exclusive screening of the Asian Food Channel’s culinary adventure TV series, “Spain on the Road Again,” the gastronomic feast held at Spotlight, Don Chino Roces Avenue, Makati, illustrated why Spain is considered one of the best culinary destinations worldwide.

Guests sampled a wide variety of tapas, paella, sangria, and Spanish wines. They were also treated to a mouth watering Spanish cooking exhibition by the owner and head chef of Tapella by Gaudi, Chef Alexandra Got Pradera Cacho. VIPs learned how to cook dishes like Pescado ala sal, or fish baked in salt, Sobra sada, or a Spanish sausage or paté, and paella, a rice-based viand, the way the Spanish do it.

Attended by distinguished members of the Spanish community, travel trade specialists, bloggers and VIPs, the Spain Tourism Board’s culinary fiesta served as a venue for the public to experience the complexity of Spanish cuisine.

To complement the celebration, participants watched the gastronomic adventures of Mario Batali, Gwyneth Paltrow, Mark Bittman and Claudia Bassols in the Mallorca episode of “Spain on the Road Again.” Shown only on the Asian Food Channel, the series details the carefree, road-trip of four celebrities as they savor the best food Spain has to offer.

Participants were also regaled with dance and musical performances by the Fundacion Centro Flamenco, the premier Flamenco institute in the country that aims to preserve and enhance Filipino’s Spanish heritage through Spanish music and dance, and the Yerbaguena musicians.
