Back in the 90s, Summer for me was synonymous to barbecue. Every chance we get, my cousins and I, along with our childhood friends, would gather almost every night to have bonfires, play games or just share stories. We'd pool money so we can buy the ingredients and shortly after dinner at our respective houses, we'd start to gather in the open field at the back of, coincidentally, all our houses. That was our playground, Manoy Tiyo's kasagingan (banana plantation), the place where summers were lit af until we all went to college and my cousins and i moved to our new homes.

In some fiction books I've read (read: teen novels lol), barbecue nights usually happen during Summer, as it should because the warm summer breeze calls for activities that are everything outdoorsy. And yes, you don't have to worry being blanketed in barbecue smoke while grilling because, breezeless summer nights. You all get the drift, right? ;)

But if you're not up to grilling your own meal and smelling like a skewered meat yourself, there's always Circa 1900 to save the day. Or night.

A few weeks ago, my friends from Cebu Fashion Bloggers and I, were invited over to try Circa 1900's latest offering, and as the title of this post suggests; Barbecue Nights at Circa 1900.

Over lighthearted conversations, we got to enjoy a wide array of their best dishes coupled with their famous bowl of green salad and good serving of Rosé. From US ribeye, to Persian chicken to Snapper fillet, it was one gastronomic feast that left too little room for dessert. haha!

If you're dining with your family or friends, you can try the family platter suitable for groups of (6) and that comes with a complimentary bottle of Morande Pionero Cabernet Sauvignon Syrah - Rosé that has the ability to highlight and balance at the same time the rich flavor of all the meat that you're having.

Each dish comes with a Circa Garden Salad and a Garlic Mash or Thai vegetable fried rice. Something that all you salad eaters, myself included, would definitely enjoy.

With Mother's Day lurking around the corner, I can't help but feel nostalgic about the whole journey from being single and carefree (more like, careless) to being married and nurturing my very own home. Nostalgic because I just discovered another album on my external HD that contained a lot of unpublished twinning outfit shots of me and Vania. How in the world did it ever end up in the NCLEX reviewers folder? How?

I've been meaning to update my Mommy Diaries series here on the blog but I have so much degustation and event backlog posts that most of my outfit folders have been taking a backseat lately. Nonetheless, I am slowly clearing my backlogs folder starting with two sets of old twinning outfits from errr last year. Hey, this is me trying, okay? So don't judge haha!

Mommy-daughter duo or Twinning with mom is one of the trending topics this year next to Jelena's old and grainy kissing photo that has amassed over 3 million likes making it the most liked photo on Instagram of all time. Totally unrelated but yeah, now you know. Twitter keeps me updated, okay?

Twinning doesn't necessarily mean that you have to wear the exact same outfit. You two could wear dresses in different cut or style but in the same color palette or similar print, and vice versa. Don't burn yourself out looking for matching mom-daughter sets just to pull this off if it's not readily available. One thing that you can do while shopping is to keep a mental picture of the items you have in your closet or in your little girl's and take it from there. You can buy a piece that is similar to what your daughter already have or you can buy something for you that is similar to what she already owns. It's just a matter of keeping tabs of your purchases, really.

But if you're one of the lucky few who knows a really good seamstress, then I don't see why you won't be able to wear matching sets! If you happen to chance upon a really good matching set, then by all means, make a beeline to the nearest counter! haha!

This trench dress I've said since forever but never really got the chance to wear until an aunt gave Vania this Zara Kids trench dress. It was a match made in heaven!
