Celebrating my 40th Birthday with a Nod to my Fashion Past
by Pam on February 5,2013
This weekend, I celebrated my 40th Birthday with an intimate dinner with 18 of my closest friends, most of whom I’ve had the pleasure of twenty to thirty-five years worth of friendship. I was struggling with what to wear. I wanted to dress up, but be comfortable. I also didn’t want to spend a ton [...]
CLOSED: Miraclesuit Swimsuits Makes Buying Swimsuits Easier {GIVEAWAY}
by Pam on June 19,2012
There are very few things that I hate buying for myself. One of them is a pair of jeans. And the other? Swimsuits. Trying on swimsuits is very exhausting and just reminds you…that…well…your body is just not the same after those two c-sections. You with me? Well, just in time for the start of summer [...]
Family Travel to Washington D.C.
by Pam on May 29,2012
For the long Memorial Day weekend, we decided to do our second Home Exchange with a family from Washington D.C. When I think of D.C., I don’t think of it as a “family friendly” city. There’s lots of walking, a lot of museums and not a lot of playgrounds. Not the greatest combo for families. [...]
Trying to Get Healthy and Fit
by Pam on May 5,2012
The last time my body was in pre-baby shape, it was four year’s after O’s birth. I gained 52 lbs in my first pregnancy and I had a c-section which just wrecked my stomach muscles. After some consistent time working out, I got my pre-baby body back. It took four years, but I did it. [...]
Best Kids Summer Shoes: Keen and Salt-water Sandals
by Pam on April 30,2012
These two brands are, to me, the best kids summer shoes that I continue to buy year after year. A few years ago, I was turned to Keen and Salt-Water® Sandals by friends of mine. I noticed that their girls shoes looked comfortable and wearable, especially in the New York City summer heat. When I [...]
Our Date-Night Babysitters Out-Grew Us
by Pam on April 23,2012
When we first moved to the Financial District in New York City, we moved into a building in which we were only one-of-two families who lived in the building. The rest of the inhabitants? They were all post-college 22-year olds. Not necessarily the perfect neighbors (we’ve been kept up many nights due to loud parties), [...]
{Guest Blogger} Gotham Home Table: The Slow Clap Cauliflower
by Pam on April 13,2012
Thanks to friend and neighbor Triple Threat Mommy for asking Gotham Home Table to appear today! Long time reader, first time guest-poster. I’m here in the city with my wife and daughter, and I blog about life and cooking in Downtown Manhattan. Today we’re making cauliflower craved by the whole family. This isn’t a depressing [...]
Friday Food: Using My Cuisinart to Make Apple Potato Latkes
by Pam on March 30,2012
For my birthday, my awesome mother-in-law and sister-in-law gave me my very own Cuisinart Food Processor. It was like I won the cooking jackpot. I can’t believe I’ve cooked this long without one. I christened my food processor with the New York Times Apple-Potato Latkes recipe which was published in December. You may wonder why a Filipino [...]
Wordless Wednesday: My Long Awaited NYU Diploma
by Pam on March 28,2012
There’s nothing much to say, except this piece of paper has represented five years of sleepless nights reading, writing and creating. It has taken a long, long, LONG time and it is finally here. Without Michael’s support, obtaining this diploma would have been nearly impossible. Big thanks. xo
We Were Part of the Ralph Lauren Gang Party, Class of 2012
by Pam on March 26,2012
Spring has sprung and spring break is just around the corner, which means out with the winter clothes and in with some fresh fashion! Between the weather getting warmer (it never really got cold and snowy here in NYC), and our family trip to Florida in a couple of weeks, its time to get the [...]
