Frannywanny is BACK!

Dear readers,

I apologize for not being able to update this blog as much the past month. August was an extremely crazy month where I found myself juggling work, family, business, yoga (yes..bagong buhay na!) and back again. However, I'm back and I promise to share with you more of my recent food finds both here in Singapore and back home in Manila.

Speaking of home, I flew back to sunny Manila over the weekend and boy was it a lot of fun! Home will always be home and though my visit was extremely short, I was so happy to spend all my time with the people who means the world the me ... my family and my closest friends.

Within the span of 4 days, I was able to satisfy all my cravings and was also able to try a new restaurant too! Here's to summarize how my weekend went in 16 mouthwatering frames:

Lastly, let me share with you the one thing that really made my day today.

You see, a few weeks ago, I met up with a reader named Cathie as she was here for a visit. Over lunch, we chatted like old friends and she asked me if she can do a profile write-up on me. Wow! In my mind I was like: "Why me?" I repeated the same question after learning that she will also be interviewing Apprentice Asia winner Jonathan Yabut and his 1st runner up Andrea Loh! Two really inspiring individuals alongside..yours truly? *gasp* I'm totally a nobody beside them! :) Still, Cathie insisted and today, her lovely article is up. Yes, it's out there in the world wide web.


Reading it left me speechless. I felt truly honored that she thought of writing about me (aba! that's a lot of airtime ha) and more than that, I am so touched to read her kind words too. This is the 2nd time someone has dedicated an entire blog post for me (read the 1st article by Jeng and Jane here) and I am just so thankful for all the love that you guys have been sending my way. *hugs to all* 

 So there you go, I'm back and I'm so excited to share all my newest find with ya'll!

See you all tomorrow! ♥

Franny Mommy Finds : Happy Noz Sticker Patch

As a parent, I have one thing that I dread the most and that's when any of my kids fall sick. From the moment we detect the faintest sniffle followed by sneezes and runny nose, we know one thing is for sure -- we will be having a couple of sleepless nights. For twins, it is very common that when one falls sick, expect the other one to follow suit in just a matter of days, sometimes within hours even.  A few years ago, my twins would catch a cold and we really would struggle because they'd become very fussy and cranky at night. They're sleepy and tired from the cold but with a clogged nose, they can't really have a restful night and this means, either one of us will have to sit up and carry them all throughout the night. It came to a point wherein both kids were sick and Paul and I eventually caught the bug too. It was just so hard to care for the kids while you're not in the best condition as well. This got me researching on remedies on how we can have a good night ...

Bag of Beans (Charito) in Tagaytay

I can't believe that we have been frequenting Tagaytay for more than a decade now and not once have I written about Bag of Beans ! I tried searching all over this blog and I found..nothing. To think that not a single trip to Tagaytay, back then, would ever be complete without stopping by Bag of Beans for lunch or merienda. I must have been to engrossed with their coffee and bread that I wasn't able to take photos of the place and their food thus no blog entry. They, after all, have one of the best brewed coffee in Tagaytay and the yummiest bread to go with it too. Bag of Beans has been an institution in Tagaytay. Just like us, other tourists and visitors would make sure to drop by in order to grab a bite or to take home some of their homemade goodies every time they find themselves in Tagaytay. Bag of Beans started with one branch along the Tagaytay-Nasugbu Main Road across Residence Inn Zoo and it wasn't even overlooking the Taal. While they may lack in having a scenic ...

IKEA Singapore Pyjamas Party

For those who have watched the movie 500 Days of Summer starring Zooey Deschanel and my ex-boyfriend Joseph Gordon-Levitt, you probably also loved this scene: Paul and I are regular shoppers of IKEA . It's highly possible that someday, we will be able to furnish our future home with IKEA furniture pieces and items as it has been our go-to place since our 1st day here in Singapore. We would joke that if only we can live in IKEA, we probably would go for it. Well, who would have thought that the opportunity would come for us to "spend the night" in IKEA? A week ago, Paul and I were chosen to be one of the lucky few to join the exclusive IKEA Pyjamas Party . It was a 4-hour event starting at 11PM and we were told to come in..what else?!...our PJs. We were too shy though so we just went in our comfy t-shirt and shorts. Well, some were really brave and came in their full PJs complete with fluffy bedroom slippers! This event was to launch the 2015 IKEA catalogue also...
