The liquor ban has officially been lifted in Cebu City and I can’t think of any other place to wine and dine with a glorious view than at 𝐄𝐬𝐜𝐚 by 𝐕𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐞𝐝! ⁣

Nestled on top of 𝐀𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐫 building, Esca serves 𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐯𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐅𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐨 𝐜𝐮𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞. All the dishes here taste great but we were particularly raving on the 𝐃𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐁𝐞𝐞𝐟 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐭𝐚 and the 𝐓𝐰𝐢𝐜𝐞-𝐜𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐞𝐝 𝐏𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐇𝐮𝐦𝐛𝐚!⁣

I was so happy to be back at 𝐈𝐋 𝐂𝐨𝐫𝐬𝐨 to feel some normalcy in the presence of people who were jogging, strolling with their pets, and simply breathing fresh air. Because of its outdoor setting, this part of the city has been gaining popularity among joggers, bikers, and fitness enthusiasts.⁣⁣

𝐋𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐢𝐭 𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝, 𝐂𝐞𝐛𝐮! Doing my part to help spread awareness to @literoflight’s advocacy to bring light to those in need. There are still many communities in the Philippines that have little to no access to electricity. In less than 30 minutes, I was able to assemble this solar light, which will give one household 10 hours of solar-powered light at night. ⁣

𝐆𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐚 𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐜 𝗪𝐡𝐢𝐭𝐞 𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝 is versatile enough that it can be consumed in many different ways, but for me, I’m banking on its freshness and enjoy it in its simplest form. I just add a little butter and some sugar and toast to perfection. Lami gyud bisan ug walay palaman!⁣

Was pleasantly surprised to find out about this place @cebuplantcompany, which is just five minutes away from home, literally a mini-forest out of nowhere where your inner plantito/a will shout for joy. Wide variety of plants available!⁣
⁣
🌳It was a hot afternoon when we visited but the trees provided the much needed breeze and shade, so the stroll was still leisurely.⁣
⁣
🌳 Their coffee shop @nimobrew is also an experience on its own. I heard they use coffee beans from Bukidnon.⁣
⁣
🕔Definitely worth a visit! They’re open 10AM-5PM Tuesdays to Sundays. ⁣

The pandemic serves as a reminder for us to eat and live a clean and healthy lifestyle. That’s why we choose Gardenia Classic White Bread because it is enriched with Folate and is a good source of Iodine, Calcium, Iron, and vitamins kay sa panahon karon, mas maayo nga ang lawas naay ikadepensa!⁣

It appears that the new normal work-from-home setup is here to stay for now, at least until it’s safe once again to gather. Being a household of six adults, upgrading the home internet set-up has become imperative. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
The last thing we need are dead spots and weak signal areas in certain parts of the house, right? We might think our existing WiFi and router set-up is already good enough for our needs, but no, we experience poor latency at times.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Right now, we’re definitely exploring the WiFi Mesh system to take the experience to the next level.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
PLDT Home offers excellent benefits for this WiFi Mesh system.⁣ (SWIPE LEFT)⁣
⁣⁣
Thanks to its dual-band Wi-Fi technology, it can identify the connection most applicable to your current use, allowing consistent and efficient connectivity.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Second, its seamless roaming makes it possible to use only one Wi-Fi name in the house without worrying about internet connectivity reaching the room, no matter how far it is from your internet’s main router.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
PLDT Home offers an array of WiFi Mesh devices for as low as Php 298 per month for a starter kit, which already comes with two mesh units. Subscribers who need more internet coverage at home can also avail of an additional mesh device for as low as Php 149 per month.⁣⁣
⁣⁣

A beach? An island? Nope. This is the crater lake

A beach? An island? Nope. This is the crater lake of the Taal Volcano when I visited several years back. Today, PHIVOLCS raised the status of the volcano to Alert Level 2 indicating increasing unrest. Praying for the safety of everyone around the area.

Winding down the week with Gardenia Classic White

Winding down the week with Gardenia Classic White Bread. Bisan walay palaman, lami g’yud labi na ug ituslob sa kape! ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
With the family mostly at home during this pandemic, one loaf is definitely not enough, especially when we’re almost always hungry! Two to three loaves is ideal to make sure we have enough for the week. 💕⁣⁣
