Childhood Memories and Cravings

I found myself unexpectedly home in Manila after I heard of my father’s passing. I have been away for so long and the onslaught of childhood memories went careening the moment I landed in Manila. Much have changed in the city where I grew up. Old landmarks were lost, replaced by weaves of overpasses, bridges […]

Still trying to keep up with my little sister, Ishy, I spent the past weekend in New York City. Arriving on a Greyhound early Saturday morning, I had a hidden motive to pepper the weekend with foodie stops. I was planning to grab myself two Metro day passes for Saturday and Sunday. I find out […]

Finally! Exhibits at the Gladstone Hotel Art Bar by Me!

November 4, 2011

It was a long thing coming, me finally being ready to showcase my work.  Truthfully speaking if it was not that an exhibit were the penultimate result of my internship at the Gladstone Hotel, I wouldn’t have gotten myself ready.  What surprises me though, is that in that amount of time, I was able to […]

It’s always a given for any visiting family of mine to ask for a trip to Niagara Falls.  My lil sis Ishy is no exception, wanting to do almost all the Niagara tourist attractions that she could find.  One day was not enough to fit all she wanted to do.  The first time, we managed […]

With all the Food Truck Eats that I have attended this summer, my little sister Ishy have expectations that she and I would be able to get her into such an event during her visit to Toronto.  Such is a tall order during the fall.  Luck was with me as Yvonne from Bonfire Catering tipped […]

I am a tourist of Toronto yet again with my youngest sister, Ish, visiting us here in Toronto this fall.  She has not been to North America before so she is just an enthralled about fall as I am.  I have lived in Toronto for about 12 years now and I am still in awe […]

Annual Pumpkin Carving 2011

Hands down, fall is my most favorite of all the seasons.  There is so much to look forward to, my Algonquin Park Hike, the change of colors and the best of them all, my sister Ayen’s pumpkin carving party.  Every year for the last 9 years, my sister and I have invited friends and family […]

I almost did not make it to this event.  Riddled with a schedule change, a printer beeping communication error messages, a GPS not being able to find the intersection where the event will happen, an iPhone with an erratic, weak signal and looming gray clouds, it’s a wonder that I am writing this post.  I […]

It seems just a year ago that I dived into blogging.  Unsure what to do, I found my way around and got my first post up.  It was my first attempt to cook a turkey, Thanksgiving 2010.  A lot has happened since then.  Throughout the year, I have a lot of things that I am […]
