Easy Recipe: Cinnamon Roll Pancakes (Sabroso Saturday)
March 5, 2011 by 12 Comments
I love breakfast foods but when it comes to making breakfast, I rather stay in my warm, cozy bed until my back tells me to get out of bed. Usually my husband takes over the breakfast-making duty on the weekends since I make him breakfast and lunch during the week. For me, it's a win-win situation. The weekend is my time to sleep in so the last thing I want to do is to wake up early and start cooking in the kitchen. No way, not me. Give me my coffee and let me be for a couple of hours. Is … [Read more...]
Ramblings: Not Me.
March 3, 2011 by 2 Comments
There are people who are natural-born teachers, not me. There are people who love exercising, not me. There are people who love iced coffee, not me. There are people who love to speak in front of a crowd, not me. There are people who crave attention - good or bad, not me. There are people who think they're always right (well me too. Lol just kidding), Not me! There are people who put their kids on a pedestal in an annoying way, not me. There are people who will express their … [Read more...]

March 1, 2011 by 10 Comments
I was on my way to my favorite coffee shop (no, it's not Starbucks) and I glanced at a comic book store window and saw Mr. ET himself in a robe! He looked so cute but according to my five year old, he's spooky. Do you think he's spooky? Enjoy! Happy Wednesday! Don't forget to link up your post at the bottom of the picture!! … [Read more...]

Last Wednesday I participated in something I have never done before. I was a co-host of a live web cooking class!

Easy Recipe: Pique (Puerto Rican Hot Sauce)
February 26, 2011 by 19 Comments
I remember when I was a little girl, my father would always add Pique (Puerto Rican Hot Sauce) to his rice and beans. He said the heat of the Pique would enhance the flavor of the beans and give it a spicy kick. As a little girl, I could not stand the heat, it was way too spicy for me but now that I'm older, I love spicy foods. I especially love eating beans spiced with a dash or two of Pique just like Papi (Dad). My son, who's 14, has been adding Pique to his foods since he was about 5 or 6 … [Read more...]
Healthier Meal Makeovers: Cooking Connections By TheMotherhood and ConAgraFoods
February 22, 2011 by 2 Comments
Before the month of January, I started to prepare my family by telling them that I will no longer fry any foods, buy any junk foods such as chips and cookies and they will have to learn how to eat new healthy foods such as veggies and whole grains. Needless to say, my kids were not happy. Little by little, they are adjusting pretty well but my five year year old needs more time. What can I say - she's the pickiest of the bunch. My husband and I are trying really hard to introduce different … [Read more...]

Win A $4,500 Dream Room For Your Child From Littlebirdie.com
February 16, 2011 by Leave a Comment
As a mother of 3 children with ages ranging from 5 to 14, I'm always on a hunt to search for the latest deals. My kids will tell you that I do not buy anything that does not have the four letter word on the tag and that is SALE. I can't help it. I refuse to buy something that is regular price, even if it means waiting a few weeks until the item is on sale. I carry my coupon book filled with current coupons for the supermarket and stores at the mall. There's even a spot for local deals so we … [Read more...]
Wordless Wednesday – Old Friends with @MrsSOsbourne (#linky)
February 15, 2011 by 29 Comments
During the Red Carpet Premiere of Gnomeo and Juliet in Hollywood (the after-party to be exact), I had an awesome opportunity to take a photo with one of my favorite women from the show The Talk, Sharon Osbourne aka on Twitter, @MrsSOsbourne. Sharon Osbourne was sitting at a table (just a few feet away from me) with Elton John, some other people and her son. After she took a picture with another fan, I went up to her and mentioned that I loved her show, The Talk and her eyes brightened. Then … [Read more...]
