MACHO KID’S OBSESSION WITH PEPPER LUNCH | and how we spent “Fathers Day”
“Mommy can we please eat at Pepper Lunch?” This is the usual line of macho kid whenever we’re in a mall and I ask him what he wants to eat. No guys this isn’t sponsored. But how I wish it was! Because I can’t count how many times we’ve had our meals there. It’s not the most affordable fast food *sigh* but my son finishes the whole jumbo plate and he’s a picky eater! We don’t celebrate Mothers day or Fathers day or any other day that much because everyday is special for us 🙂 But it just so happened that it was Sunday and after going to church we decided to go to SM and…
SANICARE PLAY DAY!
Hi everyone! Last month, Geof and I were invited to Sanicare Playday held at Green Sun Hotel Makati. Now I don’t usually bring macho kid to events unless he really wants to and I know he’ll have the best time! It’s part of balancing my role as both a mom and a blogger. You just don’t force your kids to join you in parties/events just because. Today I’ll share with you some tips if you’re planning to bring your kids to an event and also our Sanicare Playday experience! Macho kid is an unico ijo (only child) and since we live in the province with barely any neighbors around. He’s always excited to meet new…

A New Podium Appreciation Post + Mama and Baba Eats at Paradise Dynasty a Review
Macho kid and I often go out on adventures and eat, A LOT. But we enjoy ourselves too much that most of the time I don’t take proper photos anymore. Luckily we’ve been eating at Paradise Dynasty in Podium a few times already so I managed to take a few. We’re in-love with the newly renovated Podium Mall in Ortigas. The outdoor display an array of greens on their walls. Instead of just cement. It’s indoor architecture is beautiful. The mall isn’t as crowded as others (perhaps because of its intimidating aesthetics that screams posh people only) and there are a lot of great places to dine in! The restaurants inside are all rated 3.5…
Affordable Back to School Shoes | Macho Mom Approved!
Hi mommies and daddies! Or lolo or ate or kuya or tita! Or whoever supports the little one in their studies. I won’t keep you too long here. But I just want to share me and macho kid’s favorite shoes to buy during back-to-school season. As growing kids, their shoe size literally changes at least 2x a year! So it’s not recommended (this is my opinion) to splurge on footwear that will just last them that long. I make sure jop’s shoes are light to wear, with soles sewn in. Preferably leather. Also I think my alloted budget for a pair of shoe must be less than 1,000 pesos. That’s where my favorite shoe…
