French Women Don’t Get Fat!

By | Health and Fitness, Hot Off the Press | 2 Comments

Thanks to my friend, Mel, for lending me this book!  I love it!!! It means a lot to me when a friend shares something to help you be healthy! 

Losing weight and eating healthy has to be a lifestyle and a long term commitment and not just a quick diet.  And this book teaches you to lose weight….. and then what to do after that which is for the rest of your life.  Of course, nothing is ever easy so it all depends on us on how committed we are in achieving our goals.  

The book is an easy read and very entertaining as well..you might learn some French even 🙂 Mireille Guillano includes her recipes as well.  By the way, I have already ordered my Cuisipro Donvier Yogurt maker which she recommended so I can have my own homemade yogurt!  I am excited for it to arrive!

Maid Manual

By | Hot Off the Press, Household Tips | 2 Comments

This will be a BEST SELLER!  Thanks to my good friend, Alexie, for giving me a copy of this!  We always share our household help stories and confide in each other whenever we have domestic problems.  Alexie has been asking me to share my manual with her, but I never had such a thing.  So this is like a gift from God who always answers our prayers!  Thanks to our friend, Tisha, for making this book.

Available at Rustan’s Supermarket Magazine section, Fully Booked, National Bookstore and Magazine Stands

River of Songs

By | Hot Off the Press, Travel | 2 Comments

Thanks to our friend, Carlson, for giving us a copy of this beautiful CD.   We missed the Loboc Children’s choir during our Bohol visit last year, so we are very happy to listen to them.  Thank you for bringing them to us through this gift of music.

 Carlson is one of the reasons this CD came to life.  Though he is always so humble about his charitable ways, we know that he is behind many projects and supports many artists.  Not only the Loboc Children’s Choir but artists/the arts in general.

The voices of the children ( 9 to 12 years old )  are so angelic!  They represent their hometown, their heritage and everything that is beautiful through their voices and the music that they make. They travel to other countries to represent our country…. and they make us proud!  This is already their second album.  Please support them so they can continue to make beautiful music….

My First Seven Years

By | For kids, Great Ideas, Hot Off the Press, Photography | 3 Comments

My good friend, Rina, had a great idea for her son’s seventh birthday.  Heart2Heart would like to share the idea with you.

Rina compiled into a book ( by Picture Books ) some of the art works of Quinto from his first seven years and gave it to his family and close friends.  I am fortunate to have received one and I thought it was a beautiful gift to share and it reflects the thoughts and the growing years of Quinto expressed through art.  

Happy 7th Birthday Quinto!

Sharing with you the pages of Quinto’s book….

Araneta by Maria Lina Santiago

By | Hot Off the Press | 7 Comments

Thank you Tita Lina for sending me a copy of your beautiful book.  This is the second book on Victoria Lopez de Araneta written by her family. How I wish I had met her!  She must have been a great woman.  

What a grand gesture to dedicate and document the lives of the people who we love and admire.  

I am so proud to say that I am part of this family…..  We all share the same value of LOVE for GOD, FAMILY and for our COUNTRY!  We really need to live up to our family who have been great examples to others.  

Tita Lina, I hope that your book will inspire many others and many future generations.
