Last year, in my quest to be able to manage our finances better I bought the YNAB or short for You Need a Budget. It was $67 software that would help make budgeting easier.

Our household is abuzz these last few days – buzzing with excitement, that is. It all started when I read an advertisement for a job online. It sounded the perfect job for my husband who is a musician by heart – maintaining a music website. He thought so too and within a few minutes he [...]

Recently I’ve been having an uncontrollable urge for chocolates! Well who doesn’t? My mom brought home a chocolate as “pasalubong” for us last month and I really enjoyed it. I really love those chocolate coated almonds! It’s also part of the “out of budget” items I normally buy when we are at a convenience store [...]
It’s going to be Father’s day in a few days and it’s time to pamper the daddies in our lives. I don’t know why this day is not that well celebrated just like Mother’s day. I think we also have to celebrate the men in our lives and do what they like to do on [...]
