What Covid 19 Taught Me?

The Pandemic struck us last year. To be specific, it was March 2020 when the deadly virus changed how we all live our lives. At first, we all thought it will only last for a month... no, may be 2 months. But in actuality, the pandemic brought by Corona Virus has been over a year and still counting, a lot are still coping and trying to correct what the killer virus changed. Nobody was spared, really! Young, mid-age and elderly, we all are possible victims of the dreaded illness. We all go scared and fidgety!

Instead, I wan't to focus on what I can control and handle. Sure, I was extra careful. But I wanted to be productive at home too, while we are stuck in the four corners of our houses.

Cooking has been always part of my life. Since a youngster, I have been exposed to a household who enjoys eating and cooking. So, this is what I have been busy with the last 1 year when the Pandemic was busy rampaging the Metro.

I started selling online food, like most people at home, last April 2020 and so far, food orders online has been constant and ongoing. At first, it was from friends and relatives. Then the goodness of Yaya Homemade Food was born and more demands from the market kick in. Who am I to say no?1 LOL

In life, we can choose to focus on the bad and negative or we can think pass through those and focus your energy on the good and productive side of life.

Be safe everyone!

Moira Dela Torre for Maria Clara Sagria Virgin

T he media launch today we attended is extra special for me. It's quite special in a sense it brings back childhood memories of a favourite drink in my family, Maria Clara Sangria. Growing up, I was not allowed to try and drink it because of the alcohol content of the drink. But that's all in the past now. Today, we witnessed that Distileria Limtuaco and Co. Inc. launches a non-alcoholic drink called, "Maria Clara Sangria Virgin". Moira dela Torre for Maria Clara Sangria Virgin It is the non-alcoholic version of the classic Maria Clara Sangria we all know.

What is also beautiful with the latest variant of Maria Clara Virgin is that it has very minimal sugar content - for those watching their sugar intake.
