Let's be Taste-Makers!

Hi!

It's been awhile... Sorry! I think there may now be spam viewers trolling my site because despite my MIA status on this page for the past month, my views have spiked!

That's weird, right? So this is me making sure that this page will be more active in the next few weeks.. *pinky promise* ...but if you are a legit viewer, thanks for visiting! :) Mwah mwah tsup tsup! LoL!

So, I am now officially cut off from the corporate world and this is one of the things I enjoy doing -- making desserts!

There's a phrase that I came across the IG feed recently: "let's be makers!" and it's just a great thing to be throwing it out there as an invitation to keep the creativity and passion alive by doing and making something... So I tried doing just that... and this week's episode brings you, "The Joys of Dessert-making!"




(This weekend, Rhea and I will attend a jewelry workshop, so yes, more of "The Joys of Jewelry-making on the next post! I really am so creative! :P)

When it comes to no-bake desserts, it need not be complicated, if you love to eat, then you know what certain ingredients go well together like chocolate + nutella + banana + almonds, or avocado + cream cheese + pistachio, or apple + cinnamon + caramel...

So I've tried 3 desserts for the past week and yaaay! Masarap naman daw! Hehe!

Mangoes though will always be my favorite because of its effortless sweetness! :) My dessert go-to when it comes to this fruit is mango float (graham crackers + cream + condensed + mangoes)... this morning, however, I tried incorporating other ingredients to make it a little different.

What you'll need:
1 whole cream cheese
5 250 ml All-Purpose Cream
1 250 ml Condensed Milk
Cashew nuts (grounded)
Corn Flakes (unsweetened)
1 Mango (sliced in cubes)
1/4 Peaches (canned)
Graham crackers (Honey)

How to's:
1. Mix these ingredients together in a bowl until mixture is smooth: 1 whole cream cheese + 3 250 ml All-Purpose Cream + 125 ml Condensed Milk + corn flakes + cashew nuts

2. In a separate bowl, mix these together: 2 250 ml All-Purpose Cream + 125 ml Condensed milk + Mangoes (sliced in cubes) + Peaches (sliced also)

3. Line the rectangular container with the Graham Crackers, then start layering:
    Layer 1: Graham
    Layer 2: Mixture 2
    Layer 3: Graham
    Layer 4: Mixture 1
    Layer 5: Graham
    Layer 4: Mixture 2
* This depends on your tastebuds... if you love, love, love cheesecakes, then you can do the layering the other way around, but I like it to be sweeter and more fruity so more of the Mixture 2 for me :)

4. Top it with ground cashew nuts.

So there! It's so easy!!! ;) I'll be bringing these to my Bible Study group tomorrow and I hope that they'll like it!

Go ahead, be a tastemaker and share the sweet treat to your friends!

Passionately Curious

Here is the post I wrote years ago! I echoed here what I learned from the 2 speakers, Tricia Gosingtian and Ana Santos. Tricia is a fashion blogger, so there's a part of the event in which we all had to pick out and model the outfits from Bayo then Tricia picked out winners from the attendees. So the event started with that then went into the specifics of fashion blogging then writing in general. :) Hope you'll pick up a few writing nuggets! Happy reading and writing!

It's Perfectly Fine Not to Say Anything

Last weekend, we went to this Starbucks branch in Tagaytay and it was really lovely. It was situated below a steep driveway, and unless you know where to look, it would be quite easy to miss. But it's a spacious lot -- with glass doors, paintings, couches, benches and wooden architecture -- it may just be my favorite Starbucks by far.

Ligawan Stage So this is the part where Dennis already laid down his intentions, and I said yes to courtship.  I’ll share here the things we learned and what God taught us during this season. Hope this encourages you! Dennis told me to share his insecurities in this blog because he thought that it would encourage the men out there. Some of his insecurities were:
