A friend of mine once revealed that she’s afraid to have a baby because it might not be a boy. You see, her mother in law is a strict Chinese with very traditional views of preferring sons over daughters. Another friend, on the other hand, has 3 girls already and wants a boy for a […]

Turn off the Worry with Off!
Confession. I am partly to blame these days that the kids are getting too much screen time and not enough playing time outside. You see, I used to be that cool, active mom who rides a penny board (that smaller thinner skateboard) while the kids chase me with their scooters and twist cars. Until I […]

Keep Cool and Fresh this Christmas with Sharp
Christmas is such a festive affair. With it come the reunions, the parties, and of course, the food! We’ve hosted and attended a couple of parties already and the leftover food is truly overwhelming. It’s hard to keep up and there are already some that have spoiled. I know, what a waste, right? Your Christmas Helper I […]
Holiday Gift Ideas with Groupon Coupons
Disclosure: This is a sponsored post. All opinions, as always, are mine though. 10 days to go before Christmas! Waaa! Okay, I admit. I’m one of those crammers still hunting for gifts to give this late in the season. The traffic though is so horrifying! I spent the entire day on the road today just […]

Gifting Experiences with Groupon
Disclaimer: This is a sponsored post. All opinions are mine though. 🙂 It was Report Card Day again, which explains why my Facebook feed was once again filled with photos of various kids posing happily with their awards. These, from their very proud parents, of course. I was too modest to join in the brag-fest however. […]
Candy Buffet – Hottest Party Trend
If you have gone to any celebration recently, you’ve probably experienced a candy buffet. Candy buffets are the latest and greatest trends for the party circuit, and with good reason. Hosts have turned to the candy buffet to replace traditional pastry tables. The candy buffet allows the hosts to supply a variety of treats at […]
Get Active with Taiwan Excellence Products
I used to be able to squeeze in some exercise time in my daily routine, a brisk walk around the neighborhood, a window-shopping trip to the tyangge (flea market), even a quick trip to the minimart for a pint of ice cream (purpose defeated, LOL!). That is, until the rains came, and then the pile of work, and […]
Dessert Ideas for Your Party Dessert Table
Dessert tables are my favorite part of a party for two reasons. One is primarily because of the yummy desserts (I have such a sweet tooth!) and two is because it’s so customizable and DIY-able. In fact, when we had a mini gathering for DS’s first birthday, I specifically requested a rectangular table just so […]
