Magandang Umaga Nutella

Small and simple moments are easily lost in the daily hustle, where the morning rush often replaces what should be a happy start to the day. Parents juggle work, kids hurry off to school, and breakfast becomes just another task on the to-do list—instead of a time to pause, connect, and truly enjoy the first meal of the day with the family.

This summer, Nutella wants to bring back the simple joys of breakfast. It’s not just about what you eat—it’s about making time to enjoy it. Rather than rushing through the day, slow down, take a breath, and savor the moment with #MagandangUmagaWithNutella.

Nutella: The Perfect Touch to Your Mornings

With its rich, creamy hazelnut and cocoa goodness, Nutella transforms even the simplest breakfast into something special, indulgent, and worth savoring. And now, with its new limited-edition packaging featuring breathtaking landscapes from all over the Philippines, every Nutella jar serves as a reminder to make every morning count.

Imagine starting your day with views of Mt. Pulag, Osmeña Peak, and Siargao—all while enjoying a warm, Nutella-topped pandesal. It’s a simple yet meaningful way to appreciate life’s little joys: good food, good company, and a great view.

Elevate Your Breakfast Game

Make your mornings extra special by pairing Nutella with your favorite Pinoy breakfast staples:

Warm pandesal

Fluffy monay

Classic kababayan

Just a tablespoon of Nutella is enough to make every bite irresistibly good.

If you have a little more time, why not try something new? The Ube Nutella Soufflé Pancakes—a dreamy creation by Chef Reynold Poernomo—show that breakfast can be both simple and special. This delightful fusion of flavors combines two well-loved Filipino favorites into one delicious dish!

Take Your Breakfast Beyond the Table

Feeling a bit adventurous? Switch up your routine and take your Nutella breakfast to the #BestBreakfastSpots—whether it’s by the kitchen window, in the garden, or even at a favorite beach getaway. Nutella encourages Filipinos to breathe in the morning air, embrace the moment, and enjoy a meaningful breakfast together.

Celebrate Mornings with Nutella

Mornings are better when we take the time to enjoy them. With #MagandangUmagaWithNutella, you can slow down, indulge in your favorite Pinoy breakfast, and turn everyday moments into something special. Whether it’s:

✔ Spreading Nutella on warm pandesal

Albatross Advocates for Proper Sanitation with World Toilet Day Donations

In celebration of World Toilet Day, Albatross, the leading name in air care in the Philippines, is taking action to support better sanitation for Filipinos. Recognizing that proper sanitation is a human right, Albatross is committed to fostering clean, safe toilet facilities nationwide.

Since its initiation in 2013 by the United Nations, World Toilet Day has inspired leaders worldwide to advance the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) of ensuring adequate and equitable sanitation for all. Yet, the numbers tell a stark story. Today, 3.6 billion people globally still lack proper sanitation, 20 million people don’t have access to basic sanitary facilities, and 8 million Filipinos practice open defecation, with this practice of unsafe sanitation that can harm health and pollute the environment. Proper sanitation facilities are essential to protect both dignity and public health.

This year, Albatross addressed this critical issue in the Philippines, contributing to a cleaner, safer society. As part of its 2024 initiative, Albatross donated toilet cleaning essentials to various communities and institutions including Bureau of Jail Management and Penology (BJMP) city jails in the National Capital Region, Madrasah Muslim schools in Metro Manila, family toilets in Sitio Sapang Munti Ipo Watershed (Norzagaray, Bulacan), and municipalities in Pasacao and Bombon, Camarines Sur.

Albatross provided products tailored to boost the hygiene and sustainability of toilet facilities: Albatross Toilet Bowl Cleaners, Albatross Deodorizers, and Gleam Liquid Sosa. These products help to ensure that toilets in these communities are not just accessible but hygienic, contributing to safer environments and a healthier future.

“This initiative is about more than donating products—it’s about empowering communities,” says Mr. Neogin Evangelista, President and General Manager of PHILUSA Corporation, the makers of Albatross. “Good sanitation practices begin with having the right tools, and we hope our contribution will inspire healthier hygiene habits that benefit everyone.”

Aligned with Manila Water Foundation, Albatross’s World Toilet Day efforts reinforce its commitment to making sanitation safe, peaceful and protected for every Filipino. This partnership underscores the company’s ongoing commitment to empowering individuals and supporting efforts that make sanitation accessible and reliable for everyone.

Albatross’s initiative for World Toilet Day is a call to action for all Filipinos. It’s a reminder that sanitation is more than just access to toilets; it’s about upholding dignity and promoting well-being. With this move, Albatross hopes to inspire others—individuals, communities, and organizations—to join them in advocating for better sanitation. By coming together and investing in clean facilities, all can contribute to a healthier, safer, and more equitable society, ensuring that sanitation is a privilege and a protected right for all. #WorldToiletDay #MWFWTD2024 #Albatross

UNIQLO x Anya Hindmarch Winter 2024 Collection

I was invited to the launch of the UNIQLO x Anya Hindmarch Winter 2024 Collection, but since I couldn’t attend, I did the next best thing—I sent my son as my official “blogger representative.” Armed with curiosity (and my love for all things UNIQLO), he dove into the event to explore the latest collaboration. He was decked out in a UNIQLO knitted sweatshirt paired with my trusty UNIQLO square pants—a wardrobe gem I’ve had for five years now.

“An Eye for Curiosity” – The Collection

This collection is a delightful blend of Anya Hindmarch’s whimsical creativity and UNIQLO’s signature functionality. My son described it as “cozy but fun,” and based on his photos and stories, I completely agree. Each piece is designed to bring a smile to your face while keeping you warm during chilly months.

Here are some highlights:

Outerwear: The first-ever PUFFTECH outerwear in a UNIQLO x Hindmarch collab offers warmth and lightness, with a playful twist—tiny pockets on the sleeves for added character.
Knits for Kids: UNIQLO’s first-ever merino wool sweaters for kids feature thoughtful, quirky details like thumbholes with mouth-like stitching and embroidered eye motifs on the chest. Together, they form a playful “face” design that’s as adorable as it is functional.
Accessories Galore: From 100% cashmere beanies and mittens to HEATTECH scarves and socks, the accessories lineup is perfect for gifting (or keeping for yourself!).

Perfect for the Holidays

Whether you’re shopping for loved ones or treating yourself, the collection is ideal for winter gifting. Think handmade-style cashmere sweaters with darning stitches, knitted patches, and cozy merino sweaters that are easy to clean. My son couldn’t stop raving about the details, especially the embroidered stitching that adds a handcrafted touch.

Affordable Luxury

One thing I’ve always loved about UNIQLO is its accessibility, and this collaboration is no different. With prices starting at Php 290 for socks and topping at Php 4,990 for outerwear, there’s something for everyone. The quality and design make each piece a great investment for your wardrobe—or a thoughtful gift for someone special.

Ready to Explore?

The collection is now available in UNIQLO stores across the Philippines and online. I’ve already bookmarked a few pieces for myself—those cashmere knit beanies are calling my name! Check out the full lineup on the UNIQLO x Anya Hindmarch website.
