#AfternoonBites with Braun and Severin

I have shared before just how much I love appliances in the kitchen that make my life easier. 

Easy is good. 

Easy is very good. 

I like EASY because I have four kids, a husband, a job (sort of) and a home to manage. I like to eat healthy and I like to cook. I find joy in being in the kitchen with the kids and my better half because creating kitchen magic is not only good for MY soul, it’s good for their tummies.

I have the pleasure of calling the Managing Partner of Colombo Philippines, a friend. Beverly Campos and I have a few things in common, but one of them is our care and concern for our kiddos and where they go to school. When Bev asked me to help her out with inviting some friends to learn more about the quality German brands that Colombo Philippines carries, I didn’t hesitate to contact some of my very good Momma friends who like to blog like I do.

It was an afternoon filled with treats prepared by a Celebrity Chef Redg Baron, laughter, and good fun. I have always enjoyed these ladies, and their company, so to have everyone together learning how to make new treats for our kiddos was me in my element. (truly…I think I enjoyed myself a little too much!)

Check out the photo stream taken with my iphone:

And just because afternoon snacks should be pretty…

Chef Redj Baron prepared a very special menu for everyone who attended.

 All of our snacks were made with Braun and Severin appliances, and each participant received a stack of recipe cards to go home with, in case they wanted to make the snacks at home.

Everything was very simple, but very tasty. That makes all of the snacks easy to do at home as well…Remember, we like easy, right!?

We have made crepes many different ways here in our house. Sometimes like we to serve them with savory fillings like ham and cheese, or smoked salmon, cream cheese and an egg. But the kids’ favorite combination is always mangos and nutella. Never Fail.

Diego got to enjoy his ice cream in a waffle cone cup. This is definitely an investment worth making. Look at that smile!

Thank you Bev and Colombo Merchants for giving me the opportunity to share all of your wonderful products with my friends. I truly enjoyed the time spent with the ladies, Chef Redj, and learning more about the products that I have loved since my novice days in the kitchen and my newly married days.

I love it when a @bestbuddies_ph event comes toget I love it when a @bestbuddies_ph event comes together so easily. When Sandra Cheng shared that she was willing to share more about her benefits of @easecox.ig essential oils with our buddies, the team and I quickly brainstormed a program flow that was in line with this opportunity to learn. 

Grateful for @monicaemanzano who was so game to share a movement segment from @flowretreats. She thought of @curatedgoodfood who generously shared preservative free dimsum which goes perfectly with our healthy sammies from @h2v2partyneedsandcatering. @komida.foods has been a consistent supporter of our mission and events since last year. We are grateful for their continued mission of providing healthy snacks for our events!

We opened with @joanngue.mlg pranayamic breath work, moved on to a yoga flow with Monica, followed by mindfulness with @enzoarmovit, a gratitude circle, and then esssential oils for beginners with Sandra from Easecox Philippines.

What a wonderful morning spent with our Buddies in BGC! 

Thank you to everyone who made this event so easy to conceptualize and mount! 

PS. If you would like to be a buddy. Please PM me. Bugsy and I are so blessed to have one another and I love that we get to do things like this together!
Colors. My first girl got to go on her first med Colors. 

My first girl got to go on her first medical mission in October. 

Gosh, they grow up so fast. 

We bought her new scrubs for the trip. It feels like yesterday when I was buying her green skirts and black Mary Janes for grade school.

Now she’s all grown. On her way to becoming a doctor.
At some point during the evening, @gelliaventajado At some point during the evening, @gelliaventajado turned to me and said “Mom, thank you so much for bringing me here. I love Frozen.” 

As Gelli continues to grow up, some things remain the same. Her love for princesses, her love for her siblings, having fun with the family, and music and dance in any form. 

What an enchanted evening we had visiting the Samsung Theater in @_circuitmakati to watch the FROZEN film in CONCERT with a LIVE ORCHESTRA. From the moment Gelli hear the orchestra’s accompaniment to the film, to the vocalists who sang along, she was mesmerized.

Thank you @dotdigitalph for inviting Gelli to experience this up close and personal!! She had a blast!
