THE BRIGHT SPOT

Mercedes Place

09.25.2012 by Leah //

I cannot forget this purple pretty convenience store that we passed by in our travels around the Tuguegarao region some weeks ago.   It’s called Mercedes Place and it reminds me of purple yam anywhere I look!

Truly, the owner of this place knows his/her colors well.  Surrounding yourself with purple is said to bring peace of mind while encouraging creativity and imagination.    And being in this place really energized me but I think it’s more because I love the color purple too!

Sigh, I can stay at Mercedes Place for hours.  But we were there for only a few minutes for a bathroom break and to buy some snacks for our long travels.

I wasn’t able to take pictures of their clean, spacious and home-y rest rooms but this signage outside the store guarantees just that:

And had we stayed a wee bit longer, I would have lazed around their porch which was kept cool by lots of ceiling fans.

Indeed, being at Mercedes Place is like being home.   And I have a feeling that I will come back here again – and again.

I used to love taking pics of food for #foodstagram but now that everything's in takeout boxes, nakakatamad mag-food styling hehe! Anyway, whether it's in fancy plate or takeout box - the food should still taste good. And this one definitely did not disappoint! The souffle pancakes were oh so good, and despite traveling in a box were really soft up to the last bite. Yumyum! #doitforthegram

It was so nice to finally see everyone face to face and have uninterrupted discussions that lasted past 8pm! I get to enjoy free coffee the whole day too. ☕️☕️☕️ Two things I find cute though: everyone now carries a disinfectant spray or alcohol (in every shape and brand), and wears a lanyard for their face mask 😄  #NCRFSDSummit
