There are two things I like to order every time I go to Mrs. Graham’s and those are the Apple pie soda and macarons for dessert. Yum, yum! #comfortfood (at Mrs. Graham’s)
I was dubious at first when they said Apple Pie Soda but one sip and I was convinced. Now I know what drinking an apple pie tastes like. It isn’t apple juice. You can really taste the pastry in the drink.
Mrs. Graham’s is located before F7 on Rallos Street just off Tomas Morato in Quezon City.

No matter how old you are, mac ‘n’ cheese will always be the food of the gods. Savory, creamy, cheesy, and chewy, macaroni and cheese is a comforting dish that brings out the kid in us. Surprisingly satisfying, given how little time and money it takes to make, mac ‘n’ cheese powder from store-bought boxes and recipes can get old and isn’t the healthiest option.
Now, you’re caught in a dilemma: you want your comfort food and don’t have much time to prepare a meal that’s delightful and healthier. With your emails beeping and your phone ringing every now and then, you wonder when and where you can grab a quick bite. Don’t sacrifice your mealtime and risk your health and productivity! This recipe combines your comfort, convenience, and real cheese for a quick but satisfying meal on-the-go.
Ingredients:
- 1/3 cup pasta
- ½ cup water
- ¼ cup milk
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese (option: mix Swiss and parmesan cheese as well)
- Optional: ½ tablespoon butter or margarine
Procedure:
- Combine pasta and water in a Tupperware Jumbo Mug
- Microwave pasta in 1-minute intervals, stirring after each minute to check noodle consistency. The water should be absorbed and the noodles should be soft after about 4 minutes of this
- Add cheese and milk, and stir. (Optional: add melted butter here to make your mac ‘n’ cheese creamier)
- Put pasta back in microwave for 1 minute, stir thoroughly, and enjoy!
With Tupperware’s Jumbo Mug, you have no reason to skip meals anymore! The Jumbo Mug comes with a cover that can also be used as a coaster, and a large handle for easy handling. It comes in colors Lychee, Blue Iris, Sea Green, or Purlicious and all parts of the Jumbo Mug are microwave-reheatable.
Tupperware Jumbo Mugs
This versatile pick-me-cup is perfect for the busy bee in the office! With just one Tupperware Jumbo Mug, you can make several different dishes and take it with you when you’re on the go: easy microwaved omelet, heavenly molten chocolate cake, and even a chocolate chip cookie. Or if you want some home cooked porridge (arroz caldo), simply pour some into your mug and reheat it while you’re at work.
Do yourself a favor by treating yourself to a cuptivating meal-in-a-mug or a nice warm beverage—tea, coffee, hot chocolate! Enjoy a quick and delicious lunch with Tupperware’s Jumbo Mug, whether you’re in the office or on the go!

The Satchmi Store was packed to the brim for their 1st birthday. A celebration of Satchmi’s love for records, music, and the lifestyle they cultivate together with their community of friends and loyal customers.
It’s no surprise when we saw people pouring in from all directions to the store. When you step in, it’s as if you’re in another world separated from the mall itself. There was free food courtesy of Mr. Graham’s Sandwich Shop, their highly talked about Cebuano along with chips and dip filled everyone’s appetite throughout the event. In tandem were Mrs. Graham’s macarons straight from her cafe, specially made for the event complete with vinyl record designs and plating. Their Apple Pie Soda was also served during the party as well as Craftpoint’s Summer Sessions. All free aside from Satchmi’s esteemed third-wave coffee.
People got to experience fun and games throughout the event like spin the wheel with prizes from Satchmi’s lifestyle brands — Happy Socks, Lost Nomad, Gouache Bags, The Green House Project, Sunday Paper Co and more, there was also a sleeve face Photo Booth contest, by the end of the night the most creative photo got to take home a Motorino Mk II. A Satchmi event wouldn’t be complete without performances from their favorite artists BP Valenzuela, Reese & Vica, CRWN, and up-and-coming Coeli. Chip Balbuena — a comedian from Comedy Cartel’s line up was also there to provide some laughs for the night.
The main event was when Satchmi released a video showcasing what was next for them this year. Some of the things announced were that they are opening a 2nd branch in Quezon City (exact location still top secret) in early 2016, the Motorino Mk II now comes in the new color Silver bidding goodbye to the Ivory model, a new Satchmi Blend of beans exclusive from EDSA Beverage Design Studio coming soon to the store and most importantly, a new vinyl compilation that is composed of some of their favorite performers from Vinyl Day 2013 to 2015. Some of the artists include Autotelic, Oh, Flamingo!, BP x CRWN collab, Tandems ’91, She’s Only Sixteen, Reese & Vica, Imago, Taken by Cars, and more! A total of 12 tracks for a vinyl produced and manufactured entirely by Satchmi. The vinyl, entitled “General Assembly” (and rightly so) will be released sometime in 2016.
“It definitely is hard to believe how far we’ve come,” says Edric Chua, co-founder of Satchmi. “When we started out with just a couple of records and an online store, we always used to talk about opening a brick and mortar store until eventually the opportunity presented itself to us and we took it,” he adds. “From an online store to an actual physical store, and now we are not only distributors but producers and manufacturers of actual vinyl records — for a couple of vinyl enthusiasts, it’s amazing to see how far we’ve come,” says Aislinn Chuahiock, another co-founder of Satchmi. When asked what their secret was into getting this far, Ronald Sy – Managing Director and co-founder of Satchmi simply said “It was really a collaborative effort. Both within the team and with everyone we’ve ever worked with. Our loyal customers and everyone who has ever supported us also helped materialize what we’ve been planning for how many years.”
Vinyl records have been around for a while now and although the emergence of technology and digital music has proven to lessen physical music sales, the fact that vinyl is slowly growing and emerging to be the ultimate and most genuine medium shows that a love for the good old days will never go away. Satchmi has been the frontrunner in making vinyl records accessible to everyone and as proven today, they are here to stay and we couldn’t be any happier.
Satchmi is a music and lifestyle brand with a love for vinyl records, worldly goods, and everything in between. Visit their online store at www.satchmi.com or their physical store at the 4F Mega Fashion Hall, SM Megamall.

If you are a woman and your are self-conscious about your body I am sure that you (like I) are worried about things like unpleasant odors “down there” and dark inner thighs. I’ve used many feminine washes over the years and the one thing I hated about them were the medicinal smell. Ew! Who wants that?
pH Care Coolwind, my default scent
Then I heard about pH Care. For the longest time the scent I liked was Coolwind. As you can tell from the pic on the right, I like it a lot! It’s empty now, hehehe.
What do I like about it? It is slightly mentholated and, therefore, leaves me feeling fresh and clean all day. Keeping myself clean by washing with pH Care every time I use the toilet helps even further.
I am not the only one in the family to use pH Care. So does my daughter, my sister, and my niece.
My daughter is a dancer. This means that more than anyone else, she finds herself in a situation where other people get up close and personal with her intimate area.

Imagine how embarrassing it would be when her partner lifts her up in that pose and he gets a whiff of stink. Ew! With pH Care she has the confidence to move any which way and know that she still smells and fells fresh and clean all day, every day. And that is using Coolwind. Imagine how much better it would be with all-natural scents?
Experience natural care “down there”
Everyone’s going all-natural these days, whether we’re talking about organic food, health supplements from plant and animal extracts, and even personal care and beauty products. And, why not? It’s important to make sure that what we ingest or apply onto our skin is something that won’t harm us.
The folks behind best-selling feminine wash pH Care have an intimate understanding of the importance of using natural ingredients for your most sensitive part, your bikini area. This is why they’ve come up with their all-new pH Care Naturals line in two variants: pH Care Naturals Papaya and pH Care Naturals Guava.
pH Care Naturals Papaya
pH Care Papaya
There are a lot of factors that can influence a woman’s confidence when it comes to donning that swimsuit, including “puson” problems and cleavage consciousness. But one other common insecurity many women have is dark skin in and around the bikini area, and this is something they can feel self-conscious about even in the comfort and privacy of their own rooms and bathrooms.
And while there are many products for whitening dark skin in other parts of the body, most of these aren’t safe or suited for use in intimate areas. Now, however, pH Care has a new whitening feminine wash that uses natural ingredients, so you keep the sensitive area fresh and fair.
The new pH Care Naturals Papaya cleanses the bikini area while the papaya extract, added to its formulation, aids in skin-whitening, so you get fairer skin in as early as 14 days.
pH Care Naturals Guava
pH Care Guava
Even if you’re not overly concerned with dark skin, you may still want a feminine wash made from natural ingredients that will still keep your intimate area fresh and clean. After all, in a hot country like ours, sweat can lead to discomfort, even body odor, and infection—and it’s worse when it involves the bikini area!
But no need to worry; pH Care Naturals Guava has been specially infused with guava leaf extract, which is well-known for its cleansing and anti-bacterial properties over the years. So if you’re 1 in 3 Filipinas constantly seeking for natural solutions “down there,” then give pH Care Naturals a try. It will naturally deodorize the area so you can feel confident regardless of outfit, activity, or even weather.
The NEW! pH Care Naturals variants are available at leading supermarkets, drugstores, and beauty stores. For more information, check out facebook.com/pHCare.
