Father’s Day at Savoy Hotel Manila
The Googly Gooeys is a little over ten years now. It started as a webcomic about a girlfriend and boyfriend with their silliest real-life nicknames: Tispy & Ponggo. Those were the days when the hubby was the muse of the humor blog. ? His toothy grin IRL was the...

Lesson 10542
This was the post on our Instagram last night. I woke up and read it this morning as a message to myself instead of my message to others. I chuckled. I know I still had so much to tackle. Sure, I'm not afraid to mix all the colors on my watercolor set but I'm at a...

Colorful Outfits for Kids at Mothercare
My baby is now a little boy. I can’t believe I’m typing this but it’s the truth. While I do sometimes miss the teeny tiny Riley, his two year old (almost three) self has got quite the amount of surprises too. For starters, I always thought that shopping would only be...

Twiga Learns How to Say Thank You
It’s heartwarming and inspiring to see companies add a layer of purpose or mission to their products. As a mom, I feel so grateful for brands like Tiny Buds for expressing genuine concern in instilling values for the kids of today. They go beyond their products, even...
