Kwentong Jollibee “Garapon” celebrates grandparents’ selflessness

Grandparents often play a vital role in the lives of their grandchildren. With a love that equals that of parents, they strive to give their apos (grandchildren) everything they can offer despite their frail health or limited resources. This Grandparents’ Day, Jollibee celebrates the selflessness and unconditional love of lolos and lolas for their apos in “Garapon”, the newest video installment in the award-winning Kwentong Jollibee series. Directed by Sheron Dayoc, “Garapon” narrates the story of how a grandmother sets aside any amount she can just to give her grandson something that would make him happy. “For Filipinos, grandparents are the treasures of the family.

Bangus or Milkfish is very popular because of the distinct taste of its meat and belly fat which melts in your mouth especially on how it compliments the ingredients on whatever dish that you made from it, may it be fried, with sauce or placed on a soup, you can never go wrong with it. I love making different dishes using Bangus since this is my husband and daughter's favorite. With this same reason why I am meticulous whenever I buy Bangus, I make sure that it is fresh and I always buy it from my trusted vendors. Not all the time our favorite fish is available, but there are no worries for me since I am sure that Sarangani Bay Prime Bangus is available at our favorite supermarkets and I can make sure that their products are packed fresh and also export-quality. I am one of the satisfied consumers of their products and my family loves their Marinated Bangus especially my daughter who can eat almost one serving of it. Aside from their Marinated Bangus, we also

Hakab Na! 2019: Empower parents, enable breastfeeding

Breastfeeding is more than just a way for you to feed your child, this is your connection with them, a bond that no one can match and a way for moms to show affection and warmth to their little ones. With this being said, breastfeeding awareness is necessary to let everyone know of its importance and how it can help your child and you develop an unbreakable bond. I've been supporting the breastfeeding community since before, I encourage soon to be moms and moms with 0-2 years old child to breastfeed. Breastmilk is important especially to newborn babies, it has a lot of nutrients that will help the babies to grow strong and healthier. I breastfed my daughter until she's 2 years old I noticed that does not easily get infected with viruses and other bacteria. That's why this year, I'm here again to support fellow mommies for breastfeeding awareness on how good and beneficial for both moms and the baby breastfeeding is. Hundreds of mothers gathered to celeb
