Description:

The entire world has been struck by this pandemic that made is crippled economically. The effects have already brought thousands of bankruptcies and unemployed individuals. Other business owners and small businesses find it hard to thrive in these trying times, especially if their business is not a prime commodity. Let us take in this case some artists who used to sell their artworks through art exhibitions wherein they require the presence of people.With exhibitions and galleries still under severe restrictions, artists are among those who were heavily burdened by the circumstances brought about by COVID-19. Responding to their call for help, ArtisteSpace, Inc., together with Arth Art International in India, launches Art CARES to raise funds andsupport the artists communities.A collaboration of artists from India, Malaysia, Philippines, and the United States, Art CARES gallery provides a platform for emerging and distinguished artists to showcase their art pieces online. While they continue to inspire and shed hope through art, these artists also hope to sustain their livelihood and provide help to those who are most vulnerable.The funds raised through Art CARES will not only provide support to the artists but also benefit Ekta Charitable Trust in India and two (2) selected non-profit organizations in the Philippines -- LINK Center for the Deaf and ASPROFIL Philippines -- to help fund the medical supplies and protective equipment for frontline health workers, and relief for families in need.Running until September 30, 2020, this charitable exhibition features select paintings and works of distinguished artists such as Philipp Badon, Loriel Yel Cast Castillo, Joe Datuin, Fil Delacruz, JunoGalang, Raul Isidro, Badz Magsumbol, Nemi Miranda, Al Perez, August Santiago, Bing Siochi, Bing Famoso Tac-an, and Boysie Villavicencio.Some of the participating artists groups include Art Lovers, Arte Bauan, Bastedor Art Project, Bikol Expression, Earth Art, Esprekik, Grupo Kwadro, Grupo Sining Angono, Grupong Batangueno, Quezon Artists Guild, Philippine Botanical Art Society (PhilBAS), Philippine Fauna Art Society (PhilFAS), Singdeo Art Group, Society of Philippine Sculptors, The Filipino Institute for the Advancement of Arts and Culture, Inc. (FilArts), UP College of Fine Arts Alumni Association, YelCast Visual Poetry; International Creative Art Centre, and Nav Siddhartha Art Group in India.To complement the exhibit, ArtisteSpace and Arth Art are also hosting the Art CARES weekly webinar series dubbedInternationalArtists Cultural Arts Exchange. every Tuesday, 12:30pm, via Zoom Video Communications.Besides the charitable exhibition, Art CARES also creates an opportunity for everyone to contribute and be part of the effort in fighting the ill effects of the COVID-19 pandemic by accepting donations through its digital payment partners, Ticket2Me and GCASH.Art CARES is created in partnership with GlobalArtists Creative Collaboration for Empowerment, USA and KL City Art Gallery in Malaysia. The gallery can be viewed online at www.artcaresph.com and www.arthart.in.The COVID-19 Pandemic intensifies the Philippine s battle against Double Burden of Malnutrition. Double Burden of Malnutrition is defined by World Health Organization (WHO) as the coexistence of undernutrition along with overweight and obesity, or diet-related noncommunicable diseases, within individuals, households and populations, and across the life course. The limited distribution and access to food supplies aggravate the plight of poor and low-income Filipino households to sustain each person s required nutrients through healthy meals. On the other hand, home confinement due to the mandated community quarantine may cause more people to not only restrict their physicalactivities butalso to overeat and/or consume more food with empty calories as part of coping with stress and/or boredom.Given the importance of maintaining healthy diets to sustain our health and immunity against viruses and bacteria, we should turn to the practice of Pinggang Pinoy as a viable safeguard to protect our family from diseases.Ajinomoto Philippines Corporation (APC) introduced Mag-Pinggang Pinoy Tayo 7-day Menu Challenge as a way to encourage homemakers to serve variety of balanced meals to their families.

Their coping mechanism for being locked at home is composed of three major activities: eat, play, sleep, and repeat. We no longer have the liberty to enjoy dine outs, take out food and food delivery at home in a single snap. So I am left with the redundancy of everyday life in the kitchen, dining table, and/or buying food at the grocery or wet market. Doing the three can be pretty exhausting most especially if your kids are quite demanding with food and are always hungry.I was more excited than scared when I learned that Metro Manila will be under General Community Quarantine already. It means some of the business operations will already resume. My body is already craving for extra help, especially with cooked food! During the Enhanced Community Quarantine, a lot of businesses were affected most especially the restaurants. They, however, shifted into something more convenient for the consumers which is food delivery and it has already sprouted in the entire metro as the means of people to survive.Erin s restaurant started as a small restaurant in Taguig that serves Filipino food whose recipes are passed down from generation to generation. Today, it serves more than 5,000 patrons monthly. It also expanded its operations to a Bed and Breakfast in Tagaytay (Currently under renovation due to the Taal explosion) and a 10 Hectare Mountain Resort in Baras, Rizal. From humble beginnings, our core business of serving freshly cooked, high quality, Filipino food has given us more opportunities to serve more customers. We hope to continue the traditional recipes of our great grandmothers for the gastronomical enjoyment of this present and future generations.Last weekend, we were privileged enough to be able to try their food delivered to our home and let me share with you our thoughts about it.Pork Liempo Kare KareThe sauce is so rich with and the taste is so perfect, not too sweet nor salty. The pork liempo meat and vegetables have a very generous amount of servings and tender soft. Vegetables are perfectly cooked and not too soggy.Pork Liempo AdoboThe kids loved fried Bangus so much, so when they knew that they had fried Bangus, they were so happy! The bangus was very tasty and I am glad that they are offering deboned milkfish! Yay!Sinigang Pork LiempoIf there is one dish that we never skip in restaurants is the Sinigang. Anything soup based is always a hit to the kids. So they are so happy that they have Sinigang too. The best thing? The generous amount of leaves and meat! The soup is made with real ingredients and the sourness is just the right taste.Buttered ShrimpThe kids are so excited to eat shrimps because it has been months since we skipped shrimps. They loved the shrimps and of course the generous amount of soup and garlic.The menu from Erin s Restaurant is the perfect get together or once in a while take out meal you can enjoy at home. It has a generous amount and is available at an affordable price. The best thing about it? It is cooked by none other than their Chef Nanay that is why you know very well that it is prepared with so much care and love. Sulit Ulam is Chef Nanay s answer to the New Normal . Instead of Moms going out to buy food or food ingredients, Chef Nanay will just cook the food and deliver it to them delicious and fresh. Chef Nanay knows that not all Moms have cars or can easily commute outside to buy food.To know more about their menu, please go to their Facebook Page here:https://facebook.com/erinsplacerestaurant/Instagram account here:https://www.instagram.com/erinsplacerestaurant/To place an order, please go to this link:https://erinsplacerestaurant.deliverstoyou.com/How are you all in this pandemic? With everything that has been happening worldwide, we are not the only ones that are affected by this crisis. Almost all the countries are affected that is why there is a fear of a global economic crisis. If the first world countries are affected, it will be most likely a domino process. This is honestly my fear for the past few months.THE CURRENT SITUATION:The offices have been closed and most of the operations are shut down temporarily making thousands of people without income for quite some time. Many are left jobless, and more businesses are already shutting down. For most stock market investors like me, I fear, from the more economic downward slope because of what is currently happening globally.THE GOVERNMENT'S RESPONSE:If there is one consolation to this crisis is that the Bayanihan Act, last March 23, 2020, which was enacted which allowed the President of the Philippines to exercise his powers and carry out national policy and other purposes. It somehow controlled the chaos by not allowing people to hoard basic goods and necessities, allowing a grace period for our utility bills, and not withholding interest on our loans. It has put an order to the already paranoid Filipinos.PROJECTED RECOVERY:This is what I am really concerned about. As someone who invested in stocks and mutual funds and planning to add more, I am quite iffy of my decisions. I do not want to come to a point where I have to regret my decisions on investing money in stocks and mutual funds. But with the most recent webinar that was held by Sun Life, it was explained that the recovery curve for the Philippines is projected to be at 1-2 years at the bottom peak. However, it will really depend on behavioral changes.SHOULD WE INVEST MORE?This is a question that someone may ask just like me. But given with the Sunlife's dedication to being transparent with all its customers, we can definitely invest more. Given the current situation, they are offering online transactions that you can find on their website. As we are all adjusting to the new normal, they are also adjusting to their way of doing their business to reach more customers to become better at financial literacy.The past few months have been very difficult for all of us. It all started with several calamities that greeted the year 2020. It was really pretty devastating for most of us who are coping, thriving, and trying to survive of what was happening.When I became a mom, I lost my carefree self. My younger self isn t used to worrying a lot of things. The anxiety and paranoia just all started when I had my children. It all suddenly grew on me and here I am, that worrisome slash paranoid mom. I become scared on a lot of things and sometimes my husband would tell me that I am not the same person anymore.On some occasions, I couldn t sleep for days properly especially when Ashfall from Mt. Taal happened because there we earthquakes and the quality of air got really bad. I fear for the health of my children and so many other things that is running in my mind. I can calm myself by watching Kdrama until dawn, and also by praying the rosary or when look at my children until I fall asleep. Now, this Covid19 pandemic happened and everything went on a cycle again. I worried on the food on our table because everyone stopped working, I worried that I might catch the disease for going out to buy us supplies, I am worried until when is this pandemic going to end. I worry non-stop the past few months.Honestly, everything is a test of our mental stability. Even though I am used to working at home, and can endure not going out for the rest of the week, the past months is quite different. I have children and a husband to tend to. They are hungry and needy most of the time of my energy and it is quite exhausting to say the least. It came to a point where I shut myself inside the room and just stood there until I calmed myself from not becoming a monster mom.One day, I saw The I Am Band and got hold of it, tried it on as it claims to remove negative energy, spiritual attacks and Created to Stop Bad Luck, negativity and anxiety. I tried it on and been wearing it for the past few months and during the first three weeks of wearing it, I felt calmness in my inner self. I was able to sleep properly at night and I don t get mad at the children easily. It also helps that I am always wearing it as I am reminded on how I should stay positive amidst everything that is happening. It helps, but a challenge. Even though it may seem hard to cope with our new normal at home, this helped me a lot. Also, it helps that it is pure silver that even during bath and in between chores, I could wear it without worrying of causing me skin irritations.I just hope that everything will end soon and go back to normal. Let us all continue to go through this together and stay positive amidst all the crisis that is happening. Let us all stay healthy and safe!How are you all holding up in this pandemic?If you are interested in this bracelet, you can check their social media accounts and shops here:
