We actually have 2 helpers at home: the main one is with us full-time and has been taking care of our household since I was pregnant with Scout, and the one who's with us for a day and a half a week (a.k.a. Yaya 2). Yaya 2 is the one that we're sending to Punlaan School for Housekeeping Service Program. Since Scout is now a lot more manageable and Yaya 1 has really been big help to us, we decided to help with one of the things that she would like to take up: cooking classes.

She can actually cook, but she said that she would like to learn international cooking. So, A and I agreed to send her to 25 Mushrooms once a month.

I used to play football when I was young.

Grocery items that are usually on sale are those that are about to expire. But, did you know that they're still good for an extended period after the supposed expiry date?

Gratitudes: And Yaya goes back to school

I grew up in a family who values education. I've seen both my parents sponsor other kids in their quest to finish school. We were blessed enough that my siblings and I got various forms of scholarships that my parents were able to save enough from our tuition to send other kids to school. I didn't think that I would be given the opportunity to do the same.

DIY: Eagle Scout Moment using Krispy Kreme Message Doughnuts

1/6/2014

A colleague's son was promoted to Eagle Scout over the weekend. She asked me a few weeks back to help her come up with an edible celebration piece. I immediately said cakes and cupcakes, but I was given a budget. So, I had to come up with something else. 

I was on my way home via EDSA that day when I saw Krispy Kreme's bilboard for this:

I thought, this should be an interesting project for me.
