A magazine feature a few years ago, I was honored to be featured in a magazine!
It was such a special moment to share my love for food, family traditions, and a Filipino favorite as well, from the heart of my home.
Looking back, I’m still grateful for the recognition and for every opportunity to inspire through food.Thank you, Burleson Now!

My homemade cranberry sauce is simple, fresh, and full of flavor—just cranberries, water, a little sugar, and 10 minutes on the stove.
A holiday classic that always brings color and comfort to the table.
Happy Thanksgiving!

From behind the scenes to center stage :-)
Just me in chef mode on my YouTube channel-capturing flavor, fun, and a whole lot.
With my photography setup ready to go, I’m showing how passion meets purpose one dish (and one frame) at a time.
Let’s cook!

#LTKCyberWeek #LTKfoodie #LTKHoliday

Here is one of my favorite Thanksgiving hacks.
Decide on your menu ahead of time.
And to make it easier on your budget, look at what is on sale that week. Look around in your fridge or your pantry. See what you already have.
That way you know exactly what to shop for and what to prep ahead and what to prepare.
Less stress, more joy, and plenty of time to savor the season. Have you planned your menu yet?
A local winery(Burleson, TX), Lost Oak Winery's Cabernet Sauvignon will make an appearance at our Thanksgiving table too.

My power lunch, realtor style!
Fueling my lunch with grilled salmon( that crunchy salmon skin just added the pizzazz! ) - light, and packed with energy to stay sharp for showings, calls and closing.
You know why? Because even on busy days, wellness is a part of the business plan.

#LTKfoodie #LTKHome #LTKdayinmylife

Fueling up before my realtor life hustle :-)
Frothed, focused and ready to take on the real estate world- one sip at a time!
What fuels you in the morning?

With these real-estate themed props for our photography selfie booth and 360 video booth, we brought the energy!
As a realtor myself, I know that great listings deserve great fun and nothing captures attention like a photo-ready setup that gets people smiling and sharing!
Marketing can be stylish and a little bit fun too :-)

Food styling at my real estate home open house!
If I lived here, my mini charcuterie would look like this.
I have ample counter space in this kitchen.

Serving smiles with every slice of this tray of lechon with pride—because nothing brings people together like food, flavor, and Filipino tradition.
Let’s eat!

Wrapped in tradition with my abaca hand woven wrap, glowing with joy for this Christmas season!
When the lights sparkle(and I love lights!)and the heart is full, you know you’re exactly where you’re meant to be.
Grateful for culture, celebration, and the beauty of being fully present in the moment.

Brie, make it the main event!
Creamy, dreamy, and front and center—this charcuterie board was built around the star of the show.
Surrounded by sweet, salty, and crunchy pairings… because when Brie shows up, the board shines.

#LTKHoliday #LTKfoodie #LTKWedding

A simple Thanksgiving table setting with heartfelt intention!
Grateful for the little touches, the shared meals, and the love that fills the table.
Because it’s not about how fancy—it’s about how full our hearts are.
Happy Thanksgiving!

Ageless Lifestyle & Legacy Content Creator: a category of my own — not boxed in, never limited.

At 75, I proudly embrace being an Ageless Lifestyle & Legacy Content Creator — a multi-passionate woman who celebrates food, travel, beauty, selfcare, home, storytelling, service, and lifelong reinvention.

I don’t fit into a single box…I really don't!
Because my niche is ME.
I am THE category. I am my niche.

Call them passions, call them hobbies, call them gifts — what matters is that they bring joy, value, connection, and purpose to the people I serve. And if I'm not your tribe, that is fine with me. But if I resonate with even just one person in this planet who sees the value I bring, that's good enough for me.

And here’s the truth I live by:
If I wait until I’m 90(praying God will give me that gift of long healthy life) to share my stories, my experiences, and everything I love…
I might look back from a wheelchair in a nursing home(hopefully I age in place at my home) and whisper to myself,
“Why didn’t I?”

So I choose to share now.
To create now.
To inspire now.
To live fully — today.

Because every season of life deserves to be celebrated and passed on as a legacy...even those hobbies!

Homemade Frosted Cranberries for my charcuterie:
Ingredients:
2 cups fresh cranberries - 1 pack of 16 oz.

1 cup sugar, divided into 2

1 cup water

Instructions
1. Make Simple Syrup by heating 1 cup water + ½ cup sugar(you can substitute with maple syrup) until dissolved.
Remove from heat.

2. Coat Cranberries - by stirring cranberries into warm syrup.
Let sit for 5–10 minutes.
Transfer to a rack or parchment paper and dry for about 45–60 min.

3. Add the Sparkle - that means rolling the cranberries in ½ cup sugar. Roll 2x for extra sparkle, even adding powdered sugar to the mix.
Spread to dry for another 30 minutes.

Enjoy these vibrant red and festive cranberries.

As a realtor-photographer, I know sunset is the best time to photograph homes because the soft, golden lights adds warmth and reduces harsh shadows and therefore beautifully highlights the property’s features - turning every shot into a glow-up.

Just me and my little Vic!
But when it comes to real estate- pets should sit this one out.
Specially at open houses, it is best to keep pets out of sight so visitors (and potential buyers) can focus on the space - not distractions(even the adorable furry babies like our little one) :-)

A little self-care before the creative hustle begins.

Growing up in the Philippines, I was raised to treat food with deep respect—every grain of rice is sacred.
So when I see chefs tossing ingredients around carelessly or cussing about the food they’re preparing, it takes away from the experience for me.
I know it’s part of their style, but it just doesn’t resonate with how I was brought up… and I usually stop watching. It just turns me off.

Video is of me plating a cauliflower rice!

#LTKfoodie #LTKHome #LTKdayinmylife

I’m keeping vibe! Exactly the reminder I need everyday!

#LTKdayinmylife #LTKActive #LTKmorningroutine

Plating and food styling are my vibes! Shrimp skewers + cauliflower rice =light, flavorful and beautifully served!

A board full of flavor and love
Charcuterie isn’t just food—it’s an experience and always a conversation starter.

Still radiant, still smiling, and still saying yes to skincare and makeup that work- because feeling good in your skin is the best after-party vibe.
