ROCKWELL TENT : Working Mom All About Kids Bazaar

Working Mom Magazine wrapped up its All About Kids bazaar at The Rockwell Tent that happened from 11am to 7pm last August 9, 2014.

Working Mom magazine brought moms and kids a fun and magical weekend experience like no other.

The All About Kids bazaar program was hosted by actress Jackie Lou Blanco.  It offered that perfect dose of family fun, with big, big discounts to boot. Apart from games and demos for all kids to enjoy with their families, parents took advantage of their favorite kiddie brands as they were on sale.

Apart from all these, the All About Kids bazaar had an arts and crafts booth, magic shows, bubble tricks, balloon twisters, and other amazing performances. A mom and kid pampering booth was set up to give moms on the go that perfect chance to slow down with their loved ones. Celebrity mom Sarah Meier also shared valuable insights on enjoying life and motherhood with her daughter Kaya. One of the highlights of the event was the unique chance of meeting two favorite cartoon characters, Spongebob Squarepants and Patrick Star!

LIVESTOCK RESTAURANT: Fresh Pork from Farm to Table

LIVESTOCK RESTAURANT: Fresh Pork from Farm to Table 

Livestock Crackling Pork Belly

What comes to your mind whenever you hear or read the word livestock? Pork, right?

It is not a secret that pork is the number one meat consumed in the whole wide world. Knowing where your food came from is a great advantage because it gives you an assurance of a high quality meat. 

Livestock Restaurant grows its own pig in Bulacan in order to have a better quality of meat than the products sold at the supermarket and by butchers. I think people who are concerned about sanitary issues and who want a high quality of meat will be happy to know this information. No wonder, Livestock will be celebrating its first year anniversary this coming September.  One of its bestsellers is the melts-in-your-mouth Crispy Pata that is so tender you can slice it using a popsicle stick. Its Crackling Pork Belly is also very delicious.

We had a feast when we dined at Livestock a few days ago upon the invitation of kuya Ted Claudio. We started off with fresh mango shake plus an appetizer called Adobo & Kesong Puti Pizza. 

Followed by the Bacon & Egg Pizza that has quail eggs with bacon, shitake plus button mushrooms. I was not able to taste the quail eggs though because it was gone from our table in sixty seconds.

My favorite is this! The yummylicious Seafood Laksa Soup, which happened to be the owner's own favorite. It tastes just right. 

Kangkong Sambal with Lechon.  Vegetable in creamy sauce.

I simply love this dish! I highly recommend the creamy and buttery goodness of Livestock's Salted Egg Prawns. 

Perfect Combination melts-in-your-mouth crispy pata and ripe mango shake  #livestockph

Livestock Restaurant can accommodate 70 persons at one time in its main dining area. 40 persons at its al fresco area located at the mezzanine and 80 persons at the second floor according to the very amiable and pretty owner Chef Ching Magdangal Uy. I forgot to ask her if she's in any way related to Jolina Magdangal.

By the way, Happy Birthday to the Queen of #livestockph Chef @chingkuy! Wishing you a lifetime of blessings, happiness and excellent health!

JUDY ANN SANTOS 'I Do': A Must Watch ABS-CBN Realeserye

JUDY ANN SANTOS 'I Do': A Must Watch ABS-CBN Realeserye

Judy Ann Santos, a famous film and television actress will be hosting 'I DO',  the newest realeserye of ABS-CBN to be shown every Saturday and Sunday this August.

I was fortunate enough to be invited to watched the first two episodes of the newest realeserye. At first, I thought it was just an ordinary show, then comes the twists and turns.

I can't believe it. It was one hell of a ride. The realeserye made me experience a rollercoaster of emotions. #Kilig, # happiness, #laughter #Fear #Suspense and yes, kahit nakakahiyang aminin, opo I ended up crying at hindi ako nag iisa kasi halos lahat ng tao sa audience ay nakiiyak din.  Buti na lang patay lahat ng ilaw, ha ha ha.

So, ngayon pa lang sabik na akong mapanood ang realeserye na "I do". Magakakaroon nga kaya ng 'Happily ever after' para sa lahat ng couples na kasali? Abangan....

#IDO Aug. 30 na every Saturday - 9:30pm at Sunday- 8:45pm.
