US Potatoes: Power breakfast for your power kids

Oh, how time really fly so fast. Where did my summer go? Before I’ll know it, it’s June and that could only mean one thing for most moms with school kids - lazy days are over and we’re back to our normal crazy morning grind.

Preparing breakfast for school kids is a standard routine for many mothers who ditch productive jobs for reproductive ones. I’m one of those who’s always on a live wire every single day of the year as I still have a grade schooler who is, not really picky but let’s just say, very exacting as to what I prepare for breakfast. So most often than not, I prepare a week-long breakfast menu so they would know what they’re getting for the day. This is not only to serve their curious cases, but for me to also organize my wits for a hassle-free mornings.

Hongkong Family Trip 2017: Ocean Park Hongkong

We woke up to a rainy Hongkong on our second day. I was praying the rain won’t last since we can’t afford to extend this trip. We thought authentic Hongkong noodles are the best way to go with this kind of weather. Luckily, we found this little ramen nook along Haiphong Road and this charming and kind Chinese lady attending to us was so cordial to my son. She must have really liked Angelo; she kept talking to him in Chinese the whole time we’re eating. And my son who knew nothing about Chinese language except for saying XieXie of course was just nodding in agreement all throughout, hahaha.... That incident brought me to think, he’s going to learn to speak a little conversational Chinese when he gets back home. Most of the people here don’t really care about anyone. Everyone has its own business to mind. But amidst all these, one thing I’ve learned - kindness and an endless chain of smile transcends language barrier.

Mary Kay: 17 Years Of Enriching Women's Lives in the Philippines

Ladies, let me begin by sharing with you this quote ....

“There are four kinds of people in this world: Those who make things happen; Those who watch things happen; Those who wonder what happened; Those who don’t know that anything happened!  I knew from a very early age that I wanted to be first on that list.” ― Mary Kay Ash

Coincidentally, before I got invited to attend this event, I happen to skim two of Mary Kay Ash's books - 'Miracles Happen' and 'You Can Have It All' at a local corner bookstore not too long ago. She's one of the most admired woman entrepreneurs in the United States that built a multi-billion dollar beauty company. And it’s inspiring to know that while she had her share of failures along the way yet through it all, indeed, she made things happen.
