Mother’s Day Surprise For Nanay

Tomorrow is Mother’s Day and I have so many plans for my mom tomorrow, but as you know, our current situation won’t let me do that. I plan on giving her the trip she always wanted through our favorite drink: veggie smoothie.. mala wedding proposal ba ang dating. Balak ko pa nga eh gumawa ng video about her and how much we love her, tapos at the end of the video, may nakalagay na: NOW DRINK YOUR VEGGIES.. tapos as she drinks it may lulutang na papel kung san nakalagay ang itenerary niya. My mother’s dream trip is very simple, just a weekend at Banaue or Quezon or Bicol but her responsibilities with us (and my constant demand) keeps her busy and keeps her farther away from her dream trip.

You might want to ask why on the smoothie veggies? That’s our current obsession.. well.. a healthier breakfast option. Gagamitin ko pa naman sana ang aking bagong Electrolux blender to make the veggie smoothie for her surprise and capture her Delighful-E Yummy experience! kaso lang..

Of course it didn’t stop me from surprising her.. so instead of my elaborate plan, I just prepared a simple veggie smoothie here at hospital and gave the blender to her. Do you know what makes veggie smoothie so important to me? Siguro for her it’s just a simple smoothie, but for me, malaking bagay yan. It’s my way of saying na this time I will take care for her. Every morning, pag nasa bahay si mother, she will ask for her smoothie or would tell me na magtimpla na ako ng inumin namin. Feel na feel ko na ako naman ang nag-aalaga sa kanya.

She’s been very generous of her time with us and that’s the reason why I want to give back to her. Moms would really do anything for their kids..and my mother is more than that.. she sacrificed a lot for us. She always made sure that we’re happy and comfortable.. pero to extend her love to my kids, it is something that really melts my heart. The same love and care she gave us is the same love and care she is giving to my kids. Lalo na ngayon, she’s helping take care of the kids.. and there are times that she lets me sleep while she tends to my sick kids need. Tapos na siya sa mga ganitong sitwasyon di ba? Mya puyatan moments pag may sakit ang bata..kung tutuusin eh pahinga na lang sya palagi, pero she’s here with me, nakikipuyat sa akin dito hospital.

Babawi talaga ako sa kanya matapos lang ang sakitan galore dito…

Our Summer Snack Time Buddy: Lemon Square Power Pops!

Spell SUMMER! Busy days for me and fun days for the kids. The older boys spend most of their time with their playmates, card games on the morning, basketball in the afternoon. While the two younger kids attend summer classes to prepare them for the coming school year. And with their busy schedule, it’s hard for me to keep, on the snacking that is. For my younger kids, preparing their baon is a challenge. I need to give them something that’s easy to prepare, easy to eat, good tasting and of course something that has vitamins and minerals. We always try to stay away from chips but sometimes with my busy schedule, I have the tendency to grab whatever there is on the sari sari store near us. Good thing, I was asked to try out the newest snack time buddy from Lemon Square: Power Pops! And with the reaction I got from the kids, I think this will be their baon for the rest of their summer classes:

And for my older boys, this is going to be their basketball partner:

Alam nyo naman ang mga bagets pag busy maglaro, they tend to forget everything, even eating! Lemon Square Power Pops! will be their perfect snack buddy since it’s easy to bring, easy to open and easy to munch. With it’s packaging, kahit nasa labas sila ng bahay, they can snack on it easily. And since Power Pops is packed with Vitamin B2 (which helps in energy production), hindi ako mag- aalala na maubusan sila ng energy while playing their favorite game.

Other than Vitamin B2, Lemon Square Power Pops! Cereal Snack is also packed with Vitamin A for good eyesight, Vitamin C which boosts the immune system, Vitamin B9 which is important for metabolic process.

And with the SRP of P6, no need to have second thoughts on making this the perfect snack time buddy this summer!

#DanDanDanDalandan NESFRUTA Dalandan

A few days ago, a package was sent to us and when I opened it, I was surprised to see Dalandans! Ang tagal ko na kaya hindi nakakain ng dalandan.. taking a sip of Nesfruta Dalandan flavor is a trip down memory lane! Favorite fruit namin ito noong bata kame eh 🙂

TRIVIA! Did you know that Dalandan is also known as the Philippine Orange?

Nestlé NESFRUTA is the newest treat from Nestlé. A juice drink that gets you close to a real fruit experience! It comes in 4 flavors:

Orange
Mango
Pineapple
Dalandan (the newest flavor)

Medyo nagulat lang ako sa lasa on my first sip, nakalimutan ko na ang lasa ng dalandan eh! another sip and it’s all come backing to me.. another sip and I’m addicted to it!

The juice smells like fresh dalandans! And the taste, tastes like Dalandan! But it was more on the sweet side rather than the sour side. Masarap sya in fair…specially when you partner it with Tuna Sandwich (di masyado sa egg sandwich haha).

The endorsers of Nestlé NESFRUTA Dalandan flavor is Cheska Garcia-Kramer and daughter Kendra, watch their super cute and super real TVC:
