Masflex celebrates 25 years in the Philippines with a wide range of cookware and kitchenware
When a brand celebrates 25 years of existence in the Philippines, you know that not only are they here to stay but that they have grown and expanded throughout the years to provide even better options for their customers.
At a recent celebration of Masflex's 25 years of cookware and kitchenware innovation in the Philippines, I feasted on the wide variety of cookware that was laid out in a long table to showcase just how much Masflex cookware and kitchenware has already evolved since its humble beginnings in 1989 when it began with chrome organizers and nonstick fry pans with wooden handles.
That day, I arrived at the event quite early. Perfect! I had a lot of time to myself to check out the different cookware collections Masflex had developed over the years as well as personally meet Nancy Reyes-Lumen, Masflex's brand ambassadress, whose name and face is very well known in the culinary industry and who, as we all know, comes from the famous Reyes clan that owns The Aristocrat restaurant. She actually approached me to say hi just before the event formally started (see why the early bird catches the worm?). :-)

Experiencing the Watsons challenge to take the Switch Test
Question: If you could save up to 80% on body lotion, 60% on body scrub, and 55% on a hair iron, would you switch brand?
I would likely consider it strongly. After all, as a mother with a large family and a limited budget, little savings here and there mean I can use the savings for other things or just keep it for a rainy day.
Watsons also aimed to answer this question as they conducted switch tests in major cities around the country with unbranded booths and making customers try out two products per category -- a Watsons brand and a leading competitor. So we could experience the Switch Test ourselves, they also made us go through several brand tests at a recent event.

You Can & You Will: A campaign that gives women the power over cervical cancer
Did you know that...
* Cervical cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths among Filipinas?
* 7 Filipino women die DAILY of cervical cancer?
* 2 out of 3 Filipinas diagnosed with cervical cancer may die within 5 years?
While that may sound like a death sentence, IT ISN'T.....if we know how to harness our power over cervical cancer.

McCormick introduces its noodle and seasoning mixes
Every time I hear the word "McCormick", what comes to my mind are the rows upon rows of green spice bottles in the supermarket and in our kitchen. We grew up with McCormick's different spices which my Mom always bought. So.....being invited to a McCormick event got me excited....
Yes!!! McCormick launched a new product (and it wasn't a new spice!). Can you guess what?

Meeting DOH Secretary Janette Garin up close
Knowing how busy Cabinet secretaries are, I accepted an invitation to be one of the bloggers to meet and greet Department of Health (DOH) Secretary Janette Garin. It was probably one of her last acts under the Aquino administration but it was good to know what health programs were carried out under her watch and which ones she will be endorsing to the incoming administration.

This giveaway is special because it will be for MOMMIES! I'm giving away my good friend Janice's 2016 planner -- the Mommy Mundo Mom 24/7 2016 planner. Yay!
