Very small bathroom ideas are important when you live in the city where space is a premium. We live in a 75 sqm 3-bedroom apartment, so space is really limited.

In this Instant Pot Paella recipe, I used onion, garlic, yellow bell pepper, and celery as my vegetables. For my meat, I used pork slices and chorizo. You can feel free to use a different type of meat like chicken and sausage. Or shrimp and fish. If you're making seafood, however, cook the seafood first and stash it away. Don't include the seafood when you cook the rice in the Instant Pot. Just mix it with the cooked rice after. Whatever ingredients you decide to use with your Instant Pot Paella, the only thing you should always remember is your ratio of rice to broth.
Siomai dumplings are my favorite Filipino snack. I wanted to make siomai dumplings using everyday ingredients I had in my refrigerator and pantry. Look no further because this siomai recipe is the bomb!
I feel what mothers really like for mother's day is not anymore some extraordinary act of undying devotion and love, but just simple things like giving her the time to be alone and enjoy not having to take care of the household. So, in my opinion, these are the best gifts for mothers on Valentine's Day...
A capsule wardrobe can save you money on clothes shopping. With a capsule wardrobe, you can style one outfit in many ways to make different outfits. Here, we take a basic white button-down long-sleeved shirt, denim jeans, and black boots combo into four different outfits.
We received some hand me down items from my husband's family members. One of the hand-me-down items was an extendable dining table and a matching set of 5 chairs. In the end, I loved our dining table. I'm very very thankful that we received it. It's made of real wood (and not laminate covered like the ones you see now), it's extendable, and it just looks amazing. We managed to take it out of its 19th century color and bring it to a more modern look.
Wordle has taken the world by storm. If you're a word game lover like me, you've probably heard of Wordle. Many articles have already talked about what the best words are to start with in Wordle based on studies. I don't have any study, but I only have my experience and logic to base on.
Fish is my favorite thing to cook because it's so easy. You just season it and baked it for twenty minutes and it's done. I like to put vegetables with it, so that once it's finished baking, I have a complete meal to serve.
I love toys for my children that inspire creativity and experimentation. I previously talked about the magnetic tiles that my older almost 4-year old son loves. My almost 2-year old son still isn't adept at creating blocks out of the magnetic tiles though. One toy, however, that they both like is Lego Duplo.
If you live in an apartment in the city, you would know how important and valuable windows are. They bring natural light and brightness to a room. In the city, the windows in the old buildings are usually small. Sometimes, these windows even face another building so the light is blocked. To remedy this, I like to use mirrors that look like windows. I call them mirrored windows or ventanitas.
