My Fruity Maja Blanca

Maja Blanca or others would call it “Maja” is one of my favorite dessert.  The original Maja blanca is made of mainly cornstarch, coconut milk and sugar.  However, thru the years Maja Blanca has evolved and different version has been created.



Before, Maja Blanca is actually serve on special occasions. Nowadays, Maja Blanca can be bought in school canteens, restaurants, and or even along the streets. For me, I would consider Maja Blanca as one of the Philippine Street foods as it is literally found anywhere usually together with other Filipino desserts like puto, kutsinta, and the like.

Tuna Escabeche

Escabeche is really popular among Filipino's. Filipino's came up with different variation. This time around I am proud that I have learned a new way of cooking Tuna. I am really excited visiting other houses during Holiday Season because I've got to learn new ways and techniques of cooking different Filipino dishes. They called it Tuna Escabeche Waray Version.

Happy Holidays Everyone

I would like to take this opportunity to everyone who has been part of my 2012 journey. There'd be many reason to thank all of you. Without you, I didn't learn lesson that I can use on my day to day life. Without all of you, I wouldn't be inspired to go on being happy. Without you there would be no meaning of my 2012 journey. I hope that you will still be part of my life story this 2013 and the rest of the year until destiny would finally end and close my book to be revealed soon.

I am thankful because with all of you I never felt alone in my weakest time. I am thankful because I know that I would never walk alone.


This Christmas Season is a season of joy, love and forgiveness. I may not be the type of person who would say and show that I am happy, I may not be as vocal as any one else who could say I LOVE YOU, or you may not know that I have forgiven you. But let this blog be my instrument to do so and I wish you all the best this Christmas Season. May you and your family enjoy the holiday and prosper this coming New Year.

hmm 2013 is fast approaching.... New Years Resolution? Nah am not a big fan of that. To replace the so called New Years Resolution, I would say I will prepare my top projects and activities for 2013.

The newly crowned Miss Universe was asked “What is something that you have done, that you will never do again?”

Culpo briskly answered: “First I’d like to start off by saying that every experience, no matter what it is, good or bad, you’ll learn from it. That’s just life. But something I’ve done that I’ve probably regretted would be picking on my siblings growing up because you appreciate them so much more when you’re older; you get closer with your family. Everybody fights with their siblings, right?! But I don’t regret it.”

My Top Ten Picks for Miss Universe 2012

I don't normally pick my top ten candidates. I normally just pick my top ten bet during the coronation night it self. However this time around I have decided to pick my top ten in advance just to add more color. My top ten pick are based on what I have watched in you tube (interviews and some fashion shows), captivating pictures, and if I think they have commercial potentials in selling a product.

This year, I personally think a blond hair or a Latina would bring home the crown but who knows Miss Philippines would be the dark horse and steal the moment.

Dengue Fever

I had a dengue fever a few weeks ago and keep me in bed for at least a week. Most of the time Dengue Fever is more rampant after the flooding and heavy rains. This is because Dengue carrying mosquitoes lay their eggs in stagnant water accumulated in empty tires, flower pots or flower vase, or in tin cans that has accumulated rain/fresh waters.

DIY: Cool Book Mark

I am always fascinated with how we turn out those junks into something usable. Nowadays, drainage of Metro Manila is clogged with so many junks like plastics, containers and campaign materials of small or large malls that is scattered along the Metro.

On my way home last Thursday, a group of marketing people were distributing this glossy and plastic like campaign paraphernalia for a mall. It was design actually for commuters to use it as a fan on their way to their destination. So, I just took it and then head home.

Yesterday, I had difficulty finding the page where I ended reading. This is my problem ever since, and so I thought of buying a bookmark. However, I stumble upon this campaign material. I thought it would be nice to create a book mark out of this campaign materials at least this wouldn't end up in my trash bin.
Cut out those black marks
 After cutting out the bookmark marker/holder it is time now to redecorate your book mark. With my bookmark I covered the handle with washi tape and below is my finished product.

Philippines Sweet Pageant Victory 2012

It is a known fact amongst Filipinos that nowadays pageant is just part of any barangay, municipal, city celebration. As Philippines has the most number of fiesta's I am confident that it would also have the most number of pageants. I myself had been joining different pageants during my college life. It was fun during those times but stressful as well.

To other's joining a pageant is an experience of a lifetime, others would say it is their bread and butter and others would be their stepping stones to enter the glitz and glamour of showbizness.
