Events

Come Join the Par8de

PAR8DE is celebrating their 5th run of this carefully curated trunk show by Ann See and Tessa Villalon, this coming September 27-29th.

This anxiously awaited shopping event will be held in Makati at the Rockwell Club the last weekend of this month and will include 40 vendors who are launching new products for the holiday season or new facets in their collections.

I have visited this trunk show before and I was impressed with the variety of products offered that were both mid range and luxury in fashion, food, home goods and accessories. From Oliver & Maude to now Willow Clothing, and Auntie Arnie’s it’s clear that Ann and Tessa are mindful of the vendors that they bring into this exclusive event.

They have so many fun things in store for everyone who will be taking advantage of this shopping opportunity.

LIMITED WORKSHOP SLOTS

They have limited slots in the workshops being offered all through the whole show. Expect classes like morning yoga, oil blending, and plant 101, that will send you home with lots of goodies. There will also be opportunities to learn more about how to care for your family and style your dining table in a flash.

HOMEGROWN LOVE

Ann and Tessa are always looking for homegrown products and brands to introduce to the community. This is the characteristic of their trunks show that differentiates what they do from others. Shoppers like me, look forward to that. That means it’s a great place to start your Christmas Shopping.

TRIED AND TRUE BRANDS

In addition to their new brands, you can look forward to their staple brands. Be sure to check out Wenya, Florence Fling, Caravela, and Yogibrunch!

NIKKEI EATS

During the launch for this upcoming show, we were treated to a delicious lunch by Nikkei.

Aburi Roll: Ebi tempura roll with aburi salmon, cucumber, avocado, and tobiko mayo

Spicy Tuna Roll: Tuna wasabi soy sauce, smoked chili mayo, sesame seeds, scallions, tempura flakes

Classic Ceviche: White fish, calamari, red onions, rocoto, cilantro, canchita, glazed sweet potatoes

MY FAV! Seared Tuna with Sea Urchin Risotto: Tuna steak uni with enoki, and shitake mushroom risotto, togarashi, katsuobushi

Tempura Moriawase: Assorted seafood and vegetable tempura, tempura sauce, ginger and scallion oroshi

Nikkei Butabuns: Steamed bun, braised pork belly, wasabi mayo, Nikkei sweet sauce, fried sweet potatoes

Ikayaki: Grilled squid, spinach, chalaquita, panko miso, butter, cilantro salad, with mango and cucumber

Can I just tell you  how happy I was that my best girl was able to join me for this simple event? All the photos in this post are taken by her.

Because Tessa and Ann are so very generous, we were all sent home with goodies to enjoy from their newest vendors. I am looking forward to trying these products out!

Be sure to stop by and see me and Sabrina demonstrate just how easy and useful having a stock of Auntie Arnie’s freezer packs is at home. We will whip up a quick meal that is enough for 6 people in just 15 minutes!

Our demonstration will be on Friday at 1pm.

Creating food together is one of our love language Creating food together is one of our love languages. We flow in the kitchen. I get excited and move too fast, and she grounds me, and slows things down. We can move around one another while still staying in sync. In our own kitchen, there is music that guides us and sets the tone for the meal. Gelli would be in the mix, the boys will set the table, someone makes dessert, and maybe @manila.gent  makes a drink. 

When we prepare our table together there is so much that goes into the process and the ingredients. This mindful movement brings me so much joy when we are all together.

Even more so when we attend classes together to learn new dishes too.  @themayakitchen1 has regular classes offering cooks of all abilities to learn something new when preparing meals for for our families.

Check out my new article on @rappler for @kitchen143 where Gia and I learned from Chef @cocoyventura a few new Pinoy dishes that will definitely be on rotation for #TeamGellibean.

Crispy Pata. Is there anything better than perfec Crispy Pata.

Is there anything better than perfectly brined crispy fried pork? 

@manila.gent and I visited @viicsrestaurantph for simple Pinoy fare that hit the spot. Admittedly, after moving here so many years ago, I took a while to warm up to this dish that is one of Nino’s (and my mom’s) favorites. But every once in a while-I won’t feel guilty about indulging in this deep fried treat.

Happy to learn that we can also order for when Mom arrives through @foodpanda_ph too!

Looking forward to bringing the family back soon!

@thevanguardacademyph is still open for enrollment in their summer program, and has a full staff for all therapies and interventions. We really love her school and all of the faculty and staff. It makes a huge difference when you have confidence in the people you leave your child with for learning!

Thinking about the day I got off the plane in LaGu Thinking about the day I got off the plane in LaGuardia, was picked up by one of my dearest friends and spent the entire day at the beach just catching up on LIFE.

It was a breezy day. Overcast. A little chilly to be in a suit, but it was perfect to catch up with my girl Candy. Sometimes, if you have chosen your friends well, you can pick up where you left off, as if no time has passed at all. 

Just like I did, sitting in that beach chair, feeling the mist of the Atlantic Ocean, and watching the seagulls pick and the seaweed.

Thank you Candy! For the friendship, for dropping everything to come and pick me up. Drive me around and have dinner with me and Fayth. 

Wishing I was sitting on this beach with you right now!!!
Eggs Benny with BBQ Pulled Pork was just one of ma Eggs Benny with BBQ Pulled Pork was just one of many dishes that we enjoyed during #SundayBrunch at Waterside in @solaireresort .

From cornbread, to mom’s potato salad, melt in your mouth whisky cured short ribs, homemade sausages and more. This #BrunchBuffet had @manila.gent and I rolling each other out the door!

Hard to choose which was our favorite from the feast that was set before us!

Brunch is inclusive of some delicious drinks, some Southern smoked and BBQ Fare, and a most colorful sweet dessert buffet by way of Milkshake Bar!

Missing my @migaventajado The short time I had w Missing my @migaventajado 

The short time I had with this guy in Florida was definitely something I will look back on. Wish we had more time to explore and do some fun things on our own.

Gah. How is this kid 20 years old already?
I remember when he was little and he loved peanut butter, chicken nuggets, Kylie Minogue, and sitting on my lap. He was squishy, in tune with my feelings, and I was always worried that he might have an asthma attack in his sleep so I would nebulize him every few hours. He always looked at new experiences with gratitude and wonder, much how he did while we were in FL together.😍

Praying he continues to strengthen his faith as he grows. 🙏🏻👨🏻🙌🏻

Miss you Miggy!
I’ll be sharing a little bit about my faith toda I’ll be sharing a little bit about my faith today with some university students. 

I have shared my testimony with other mommas, women in our community, and parents through this platform and others. It’s always come naturally and has often ended in tears of gratitude and joy for His faithfulness and unending LOVE. 

Of course, sharing parts of myself with others who may find it helpful is a privilege. But for some reason, I am always just a little bit anxious and apprehensive right before I am about to present parts of my story.

Perhaps today, I’m anxious because the format for how I will share is a bit different, I won’t have the comforts I have gotten used to since working from home. Instead I’ll print some cue cards for myself so I can stay on task and within my given time period. 

I love the opportunity this endeavor has given me, to reflect on His presence in my life. He’s been there all along, even if I didn’t know it. I love the understanding that I can have these intimate conversations with my Creator knowing that He has plans for me. He loves me. He knows all the hairs on my head. And that He knows what I need to fulfill my purpose.

This doesn’t mean I won’t have challenges, or times when I feel broken in my life and faith. In fact, there have been many times where my faith has faltered. All of it just means that He is fortifying me through each and every lesson. He is allowing me to create a greater understanding of who I am, where I am supposed to be, and how He will get me there.

Do you share parts of your faith here?
What does that look like?
