Global Academy Open House

By
My family loves eating and our way of bonding is through good food, which explains our big dining room at home. But I am not gifted to have the exquisite skill in the kitchen and all I have is all self-help and self-improvement to be able to serve my kids and J a decent meal. Until now I still dream of being at least good at it.

Weeks ago I was invited by my fellow mommy blogger Krisna of Life As A Ceo to attend an open house at Global Academy. I really wanted to experience how is it to be inside a cooking class so I asked J to squeeze it in his tight schedule so I can attend! Good thing the event was held in the evening so hurray for me!

I was immediately stricken by Chef Ericka who was the host that night of how she manipulates the kitchen even if we were a bit late that evening. Their kitchen has one word for me—WOW! I thought if I would have that kind of kitchen I would be more inspired to cook every hour of the day.


They made four recipes that night namely; compressed watermelon with roasted prawns and citrus coriander dressing, dinner rolls with compound butter,  pan seared barramundi with papaya salad and lemon grass curry sauce and french macaron.

Looking at the finished product makes it untouchable because I know how hard the preparation was! I was a bit hesitant to even touch the shrimp with my fork because the presentation was nicely done. Two thumbs up for it. I guess for me it was hard because I am not equipped with the right tools and skills to do it.

My favorite part of the evening was the preparation of French macarons as it was our much-awaited recipe! We were all curious on how they prepare it and why is it soooo expensive. One bite costs you roughly about p35 in the stores but it is ssssooo delish and equally tempting! Oh yes, that means calories!

This event truly inspired me to try my best to prepare more decent meals for the kids and J. But first I have to ask J to make it to number 2 in the priority list to make the kitchen a decent place for a happy cooking.

If you want to try the recipes shoot me an email and would love to share it to you.

Myra Ultimate Dietary Supplement Review

Health is wealth. I have said this countless times to my children and everyone else. Now this pandemic reminds us that we need to take care of ourselves more since we are battling a virus. Aside from exercise, healthy food, and vitamins that we take everyday, we also need to take care of our skin. Even though we are at home most of the time, we must not neglect the protective layer of our body. I learned skin care through my mom who was health conscious too. She would take vitamins and supplements of all sorts and strictly follow a skin care routine day and night. She is my biggest influence when it comes to taking care of myself. I learned that in order for us to have a good glowing skin, it should start from within.  I came across Myra a few years back at a drugstore when I started working and began taking their Vitamin E supplement. Now they Myra Ultimate, a new product that I tried and here are my thoughts. One week of taking it, I noticed a significant change in the glow of my...

Purple Fairy Cosmetics Review x Giveaway

If kilay is life, liptint is life also for me. There was a phase in my life where I'd hoard every new lipstick in the market. But suddenly, I grew tired of it. BOO.   When I purchased my first liptint and knew how versatile it was for a busy mom like me, I had already a thing for liptints. In a span of a year, I bought several local and foreign brands and of course there were mixed emotions about it. There is just something about it that tells me still, they do belong to the same mother but unique in every way.  It is about time for me to throw some of it because I have been using it beyond six months already. Do not get me wrong though, I store my liptints in a cold and dry place (refrigerator) that is why, I could still use it beyond it's shelf life. Now it's time to hunt for a new local brand when suddenly I came across the owner of the brand I have been eyeing to try for the longest time.  Anyway, so much for blabbing here and let's get to the review...
