Tried and tested: the Dyson Air Multiplier
I’m a huge fan of electric fans because they’re easier on the environment (not to mention, the Meralco bill).

I have to add though that I have never been sponsored by Canon. I had a couple of meetings with Canon Philippines in which they offered to sponsor me, but nothing ever happened.
So you can be sure my endorsement of Canon is free and sincere.

Cuteness overload at Cath Kidston flagship store, BGC
Some people still get shocked when I express my love for cute girly things.
The truth is, part of me will never grow up.
It’s ironic that God gave me all boys-my husband, three sons, and now a puppy named Anwar. I have no one to share the cute, girly things with.
That doesn’t stop me from liking them though.
Cath Kidston is a brand I discovered in ( Read more... ) -

Official NBA store opens at Glorietta
When the boys were born, my Dutch husband and his brother Victor were really hoping the kids would play football and play for the Netherlands team. But having been brought up in the Philippines, the boys naturally took up basketball instead. My son Markus was already dribbling a ball before he could even speak at 1.5 years old.
Our boys are ( Read more... )
