When Suharts and Rins are here we are so busy Lunch hosted by Tita Menchu and Lucy (cute dog) Katigbak. Group photo with slippers
Japanese style where you have to remove your shoes and wear slippers.
Lite Tikoy from Tita Viv for Chinese New year. She is so cute
So happy to see Tita Viv Yuchengco @canarymum who always looks so good everytime I see her. One of her secrets is Izumio #h2hizumio @naturallyplusphilippines and Another secret is her beauty salon called Vivify @vivify_salon in Jupiter street. She now offers microblading and she is the perfect model. She is a permanent fixture at the Makati Stock Exchange soon to move to BGC. Tita Viv is a trove of information so i also like getting info and finds from her. She has a doctor for everything and she will even help you get an appointment in an instant. There’s no better wisdom than experience and age. Love learning from friends – to me they are blessings from God #h2hbeauty #vivifysalon #h2hpeople
Homecooked healthy and yummy meal by Tita Menchu.
Pako salad, Inihaw na baboy, Chicken inasal and Tita Vivian’s Pancit palabok. Super enjoyed our host, Tita Viv @canarymum and Marlene. I learn so much from them and enjoy the super funny stories – i could listen all day #h2hpeople #h2htablesettin
Discoveries and learnings from Tita Menchu! She’s so detailed and so hands on in everything she does. She has the same name as my mom and they are friends
Yummy garlic crispy chips which she got in Isetann Singapore
Homemade pako salad- she said she just puts the pako in a strainer and pours hot water over it then adds the onions and tomato. And since she’s “OC” the onions and tomatoes have to be cut a certain way
I asked her how she marinated her yummy Chicken inasal – its Claude Tayag inasal which comes in a bottle and you can buy in the grocery. Yum!
LOVE the Cold handtowel idea in the tablesetting which smelled so good. She puts the colognes or perfumes that she can’t use. Which i believe is not offensive because you really tend to choose your scent sometimes.
Super love the crochet glass holder which can’t be bought anywhere because it was made by a former maid. It’s so thick and so snug and looks so elegant. If someone can please copy and sell
Volvic which is mountain spring water is the best drinking water
I like the slipper idea. In my future home im hoping to follow the Japanese home where they have an area before entering the home which has a cabinet to put shoes then you change into slippers and there’s a step before entering the home proper. That’s why i collect hotel slippers:-) I’m going to follow all these!! Lovegetting ideas from friends.
Oh and we got a taste test of the latest Carmen’s Best @carmensbest of @pacomagsaysay which is Sugar free and will be launched soon #h2hhouseholdtips #h2hfinds#h2hicecream
