Ties That Bind

October 30, 2015 By Tammy Leave a Comment

Loving Ties That Bind, a social enterprise in Quezon City, brought to you by Sining Cruz. Before having babies, I used to wear big earrings, bracelets (although hardly a watch) and necklaces.

La Huerta Organic Farm, Rinconada’s Gateway to the Arts

November 7, 2012 By Tammy Leave a Comment

La Huerta

La Huerta de Rosario – where Farming is an Art (and the Farm is the Artist’s Canvass) – has become a favourite place to bring visitors for lunch (especially on the way to Legazpi). The organic vegetables in season feed our hungry visitors, but the paintings, the plants, and the homey ambiance fills the soul.  There is […]

November 4, 2012 By Tammy Leave a Comment

Enchanted Farm

During J’s first few months, he was able to have his first McDonald’s visit, his first Bonchon trip, his first visit to SM Megamall and Trinoma. The rest of the time, we stayed at home – trying to learn the ropes of parenthood and multitasking. After taking him to nearby areas in the metropolis, we decided […]

Improving Local Products: Ragiwdiw, Jobos and Lots of Patience

July 28, 2011 By Tammy Leave a Comment

Today was to dye for. Tom and I spent the afternoon going around Naga’s Public Market (definitely the place to go for local products). Looking for different colors of dye. Thanks to Tita Vivian – the friendly stall owner of an unnamed square-meter of a space – we got ourselves a few dozen sachets. Yellow. […]
