A #VeryAsian Lunar New Year
Happy 2022! What a start to the new year. I know I’ve been MIA from here for months, but I’ve simply been in a bit of a creative funk. I’ve been less focused on myself and more focused on just… my life. (But more on that for another day.) Not only did we just wrap…

Goodbye Summer, Hello Fall: Our Fall Bucket-List
Hi friends, it’s been a long time. Actually it’s been a long summer. As you’re probably noticing, I didn’t blog all summer, and it was for good reason. It was the last summer my family had before our eldest started elementary school so we wanted to make the most of all the time we had.…

Celebrating #AAPI Heritage Month with My Favorite Filipino Recipes
Hi friends! Apologies again for being absent on here. (We moved! And it has taken over literally the last two months of my life.)

10 Spring Break Activities in the SF Bay Area
Happy belated one year of Covid-19! It’s hard to believe we’ve been in this for a year already. I’ve been completely absent on here, but it’s been hard to keep up with life lately. My house is a complete mess all the time, we’re in the process of moving, and I’m still over here studying…

What Being Filipino Means To Me
It’s been another busy month around here. Despite still being in the middle of a pandemic, we’ve managed to celebrate a wedding, 3 birthdays, and even our baby boy’s 100-days celebration. October is already generally a busy month for us, and I am biased to love October because it’s also my birth month. But on…

To My Kids: Please Stop Growing
Happy end of September, friends! Can you believe another quarter of the year is over? Honestly with the pandemic, this has been one of the fastest years yet. Once September hits here, it’s basically the start of our busiest time of the year. Between the many birthdays in our famly plus getting ready for the…

God’s Plan is Greater
I never thought I’d be a mom to a son. I actually never thought we’d have three kids. And despite how many times I joked with my husband about being a stay-at-home mom one day, I never thought I’d actually be one. If you asked me 5 years ago what my life would be like…

Giving Birth During COVID
Happy end of July friends! It’s been awhile since I’ve mustered up thoughts for a blogpost. But it’s mostly been because I was getting ready for the birth of my son. As of today, he’s 11 days old. And just like that he’s here! When the pandemic started back in March, I didn’t think we’d…
