I know she’s too humble to talk about her latest win at the Concurso de Vasos Starbucks (did I get that right, guys?). As a matter of fact, she downplays being part of the 30 honorable mentions and I could sense her shyness when I congratulated her. With so many entriessss for Starbucks Chile to […]
Avocado…The Filipino (Asian) Way!
This post was inspired by Caro‘s previously posted avocado recipe. During one of my Whatsapp conversations with her and her husband Renato, they were surprised to find out I eat avocado for dessert (and it’s actually one of my favoritessss!). While avocado is also used in salads and savory dishes here in the Philippines, it’s […]
Palta or Avocado… The Chilean Way!
If there’s something we love – aside from barbecues – it’s palta or avocado . We eat it as a vegetable more than as a fruit… And we combine it with other vegetables in salads or as something to put on the bread at our “onces” (tea time). This is a doodled recipe! I hope […]
Drawing Mimi of Capachitos (by Kate)
It’s my turn to recreate Mimi, my fellow distance-doodler Carolina’s original cartoon character. 🙂 Haha, I think I unconsciously made the head bigger just like my character K’s. (Sorry, Caro!) Unlike my dear friend, I’m still not used to watercolor. Haha. And I haven’t really invested in a good set. The ones I have are […]
Watercolor and ink

W&N Inks are permanent, once dry, they don’t back into solution, which is perfect for me because I […]

Pinoy is an adjective, informal term relating to the Philippines or the Filipinos. Palaman refers to filling. Here in the Philippines, people can get really creative with their palaman choices. Sandwich spreads are not limited to cheese, peanut butter, and the like. Some may actually find it weird but pasta, ice cream, and even baking […]
Carolina’s Starbucks Cup Design Entry ♥
I woke up to beautiful designs today on Instagram as my good friend and fellow distance doodler, Caro, posted her entries to a cup design contest by Starbucks Chile. Aaaack, I barely understood the Spanish lines but the designs speak for themselves. Check out her designs on http://instagram.com/capachitos and please show some love by hitting […]

Meet POLL: My Viber Sticky Fingers Mascot Submission
Spent so much of my time today to make it to Viber’s deadline for their Sticky Fingers mascot contest. This is a long shot for a beginner like me but I just wanted to give it a try. 🙂 It’s still a dream for me to have a sticker pack I personally designed. 🙂 So […]
