Mommy Moments: Rainbow Colors (Easter Gifts for Kids)

Early this month, I requested my daughter to draw me some personalized Easter gifts for kids. I intend to use the drawing for my food blog. After a few minutes, my daughter gave me this colorful drawing – her idea of homemade Easter gifts for kids. :)

Let us not forget the true meaning of the Lenten Season. Happy Easter, everyone! :)

Summer Cooking Lesson

I’m interested to attend Del Monte Kitchenomic’s Culinary Program this summer. But one thing prevents me from doing so – lack of fund. The fee, according to the newsletter, could range up to – P3,000 or $65 to $70 – to cover the expenses for ingredients, materials, recipe handouts, apron, toque and certificate of attendance. If I could only avail a loan or some form of social security benefits, I could sign up and reserved a slot right away.

I’m actually interested to learn the basic of Healthy Baon for Kids, which is offered as free demonstration for paying participants.

If you are interested to enroll, you may call DMK Hotline at 897-7000 to reserve a slot.

All classes will be held at the Del Monte Test Kitchen, GF B3 Bonifacio High Street, Bonifacio Global City, Taguig City.

The Shrine of the Divine Mercy, Marilao Bulacan

I haven’t gone to any churches for the traditional Visita Iglesia this Holy Week. However, I’m sharing some photos that I took during my son’s fieldtrip to the Shrine of the Divine Mercy in Marilao, Bulacan last year.

The Shrine is home to replicas of saints and pious people in the Catholic Religion. You can feel the sanctity of the place. Some parents or chaperon of kids got a few minutes to kneel and pray to the saints.

The Shrine is situated in a vast portion of land in Marilao, Bulacan. We haven’t really seen the whole place except the church area, so I can’t really tell if there is designated camping and picnic area that would allow visitors to cook.

If you are near the area, maybe you can include the Shrine of the Divine Mercy in your list of churches to visit this Lenten season.
