Savonoi – Handmade Soaps, Why I like them and why you should too!

February 4, 2017 by Sheila | A B & Me Leave a Comment

A few weeks ago, I was given samples of Savonoi handmade soaps to try. It took me a while to write this post because I wanted to really try these soaps out. If you’ve noticed, I don’t really do a lot of reviews on this blog. I do give exceptions to products that I like…

Beef Caldereta Recipe, Made Easy by Mama Sita’s Caldereta Mix

January 11, 2017 by Sheila | A B & Me Leave a Comment

I used to be intimidated by Caldereta. It seemed so complicated. I’ll tell you why. In the olden days… Growing up, we would always have these family parties and gatherings at home. Aunts and Uncles would come over early to help with the preparations. Food were always made from scratch. And I mean no short…

Staycation: Al Maha Arjaan Rotana, Abu Dhabi

January 28, 2016 by Sheila | A B & Me 4 Comments

Some time in July (2015) we decided to go visit the capital, Abu Dhabi. It was a long weekend because of the Eid holidays so we had time to burn. We wanted to have the  usual staycation but Dubai hotels are super expensive during this time and they were all fully booked by the time…

Where to Stay in Dubai: Dusit Thani Dubai

August 8, 2015 by Sheila | A B & Me 6 Comments

After a very stressful week at work, I was given an extra day off to compensate. That meant I will be having a “long weekend”! Most employees can relate to having just one day off from work. Fridays are sacred. We stay home and recharge. But with an extra day, we decided to book a…

Tried and Tested: Yas Island Rotana – Abu Dhabi

July 12, 2015 by Sheila | A B & Me 3 Comments

When we agreed to attend the event in Ferrari World last week, we decided that we will spend the night in Abu Dhabi instead of driving all the way back to Dubai. With kids in tow, it’s more convenient that way. Plus, we adults also want to relax, yes?  Grace (Sandier Pastures) and I were…

Hello!

Hey there!
We’re a Filipino family of four figuring things out in California after living in Dubai for years. This space is part blog, part memory box—where we share life lately, parenting wins and fails, travels, and everything in between.

Sometimes it’s deep, sometimes it’s funny, but it’s always honest. Thanks for hanging out with us!

Just a normal day with the fam. Sometimes the be Just a normal day with the fam. 

Sometimes the best memories aren’t from big adventures but from the simple moments—like game night in a cozy cabin, laughing until our stomachs hurt. We booked our Big Bear stay through @airbnb and @avantstay gave us the perfect backdrop for a weekend full of fun, comfort, and family time. Definitely one for the books.
