Events Gather

Weekend Activities in Metro Manila

The weekends are usually the time we set aside for our family to bond! This weekend is so jam packed with so many different activities not just for the us to attend as a family and walk around leisurely, eat, and shop…but also for me as a mom and a parent.

Check out these places to go to and things to learn all here in the Metro.

I always find the science parties that are put together by Mind Museum interesting. This party is the perfect theme for the month of LOVE.

I love bringing the kids to The Mind Museum, and I love that they are a supporter of Best Buddies 🙂 Thank you Mind Museum!

Click on the photo to be taken to Mom Pop Up on Facebook to learn more about what vendors will be there!

Rone has put together a bunch of different vendors which make moms lives easier. My favorites on this list? Two Tots and Anthill Fabrics!

I love that quite a few of the vendors in this Mom Pop Up have causes behind their businesses.

Remember Coach Pia and the SoMoms #BetterMe sessions? Here is your chance to attend a Better Me Session on your own!

Click on the photo to be brought to The One Core Facebook Page to learn more about this workshop and how you can attend for a minimal fee.

We never stop learning. Even if I have kids who can achieve good grades and balance sports and extra curricular activities with studying, I can always pick up new tips and tricks from other educators.

Of all the activities this weekend, I think this is the one that piques my interest the most…the teacher in me wants to hear what these experts can share…most especially for me to apply with Gellibean.

Pregnant? Trying? Have a newborn? Breastfeeding? Be sure to attend the talk by Abbie Yabot at the Bumps, Babies, and Beyond Fair by Mommy Mundo. Abbie was my lactation consultant for Gellibean and I am so grateful for her and the service she provides. 

Bumps, Babies & Beyond

Mommy Mundo has always put together a people and vendors to help Mommas like me. From her very first bazaar years ago when Diego was less than 2 years old she has been the go to source for mommas whether they are planning to get pregnant, already pregnant or holding your baby already.

Summer is fast approaching. Have you mapped out your kids’ schedules yet? Check out Expo Kid to find ways to keep the kids busy, learning, and productive.

Waterside @solaireresort’s BBQ Brunch Buffet has Waterside @solaireresort’s BBQ Brunch Buffet has all the southern fixings and more.

Grilled and smoked meats. Seafood and mixed drinks. Fried chicken and fish and chips. Starters include fresh salads, corn bread, nachos and more. But the kicker comes in the form of a Make Your Own Milkshake bar, and YES, you can order it spiked with your favorite liquor! 

Waterside is only one of quite a few restaurants that you can enjoy  beautiful weekend brunches with your favorite person, the fam bam, or your friends. 

Check out www.mommanmanila.com to see the full menu and what Nino and I enjoyed most.
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!
