Hi! My name is Nenette AM, but you can call me Nen. I'm a Canada-raised Filipina, mum, wife, lifestyle blogger, former hula instructor, and recovering engineer. If you want to know more about me, go here.
I started blogging in 2007 when Life Candy was a diet/nutrition/healthy-living blog. In time, blogging became my escape from my day-to-day kid-centric existence. I started writing about other aspects of my life, and this place became my 'more than just a mom' blog.
And no, I don't consider myself a 'mommy blogger' (grrr...).
However, I do have awesome kids, and since this blog is about my life, I will talk about them from time to time. As well as my sweet husband. And food, design, eco-awareness, music, natural beauty, healthy living, and the occasional smattering of math. And the drunken debauchery innocent fun my girlfriends and I occasionally enjoy. Oh, and my pretend boyfriend Gerard Butler.
Basically, all the stuff that makes my world go round.
So, anyways, welcome to my little online home. Comment and/or email me -- I love getting both.

the fine print.
I write a lot about my health and fitness journey. I also do A LOT of research - however, my background is in software design/engineering, not medicine. So, please be sure to see your health care professional before you try anything I'm trying for myself.
I also apologize for any overuse of the word "really".
credits.
Without these people, my blog would look entirely different...
