#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!)

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!?

Asking for volunteers to show how easy it is to use the citrus juicer. Ging was a pro.

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 have always been intimidated by Cornish Hens. Th I have always been intimidated by Cornish Hens. Through this learning exercise with @usapeecphl, I have learned a bit more about these little birds that have bigger breast parts, and thank you Chef @ivoryyat for showing me how easy it is to prepare Greek Lemon Roasted Cornish Hens with Roasted Potatoes.
 
Clean and fresh flavors are perfect for these smaller birds that are rich in protein with zero carbs. Try the recipe in the comments section. I’m sure you’d enjoy it as much as I did!
 
Interested in U.S. Cornish Hens? You can buy them in stores near you. #CornishHen #USCornishHen #PoultryPerfection #CookingWithUSPoultry #USPoultry #USAPEECPHL #ad
@gi.aventajado and I played with some of the @pura @gi.aventajado and I played with some of the @puratosph products that they sent over the other day. Ready to use Bavarian Cream made these Cream Puffs easier than ever. I think we have to figure out how to temper our couverture better…

@mommymundo always has a way of bringing together @mommymundo always has a way of bringing together just what we need, no matter the time of year. Loving these photos of my first boy that were snapped @expomom.

Anyone else thinking about #HolidayPhotos? I am not one of those moms that has it all together before Christmas. It’s usually a mad dash for us at the end of the year, but if it’s anything that the past few years has taught me, it’s that the little things are what makes the Christmas special.

Many of us haven’t been together with the extended family or even our immediate family in so long. That means it’s the perfect time to document.

@nextbymetrophoto will be hosting one last Christmas Marathon family photo shoot before the end of year. Check them out or shoot them a message. They have some cute set-ups.
****GIVEAWAY ALERT*** 10 things I LOVE about @sed ****GIVEAWAY ALERT***

10 things I LOVE about @sedahotels listed here and on FB!

1. Each property has a Signature Dish. If you can’t make it to Bacolod, you can still enjoy Chicken Inasal in any of their properties.

2. Clean Design. So easy to work and play in a space that is light, modern, and clean in design. 

3. Beautiful views. Every chance I got, I would sit outside at @straightupatseda. 

4. Spacious Rooms and Residence Stays. Staying in the Three Bedroom Premier was perfect for our family. 

5. Attentive Service. Everyone was pleasant and accommodating.

6. Centrally Located. If you are thinking of fun things to do in Makati and want a home base, Seda Residences Makati is near a few of the museums, parks, and malls.

7. Work with ease. Internet service is uninterrupted. Meeting rooms are available and easy to book.

8. Relax and Play. From mid-day tubbies with Gelli to, taking advantage of the pool, or the children’s room, the little girl had more than enough things to keep her busy!

9. #FamilyTime. Spending an extended amount of time outside our own space led to laughter, fun conversations, and opportunities to try new things. We were comfortable and rested in the space we were in, which meant more opportunities for us to connect.

10. Homegrown with a Purpose. A Filipino brand that understands the importance of both work and travel, each property is important to the city & province location. Environmentally aware by adopting Mayumi, a Philippine Bald Eagle. 🦅

Is there anything better than a stuffed turkey at Is there anything better than a stuffed turkey at this time of year? Whole turkeys require serious commitment to cook. #IYKYK But because U.S. Poultry is now available here in the Philippines, that also means preparing turkey is a tad bit easier.
 
Frozen U.S. turkey products are available and ready to cook for people who want to dabble with flavors for this bigger bird but aren't sure how.
 
Thank you to Chef @ivoryyat for putting together a medley of my favorite fall flavors. This combination of apples, sweet potatoes, and maple syrup perfectly compliment  the roasted turkey leg and remind me of flavors and scenes from back in New York. 
 
@usapeecphl l has the highest standards that follow USDA requirements which are certified safe before shipping to the Philippines. Get them in stores near you.
