THE BRIGHT SPOT

Food. Travel. Bargain finds. Random thoughts. A bright spot for sharing ideas and starting conversations!

Going “Natural” this Christmas

11.11.2014 by Leah //

How are you with your Christmas shopping, folks?  Can't believe that we only have one month (and 4 15 days) before Christmas! I'm finally done shopping for my inaanaks last weekend, and have completed wrapping the gifts for my office colleagues.  I actually started last September pa, and every weekend I would look forward to wrapping some gifts for those in my Christmas ...

A Spooky Halloween

11.07.2014 by Leah //

Our office had its annual trick or treat last week, and I think a lot more kids were spooked this time because there were far more eerie decors set up and some even looked real, pati ako nagugulat! For this year, our group decided to put together ghosts, bats, giant spiders and skulls in a graveyard setting.  The creative team (hi Ricky, Jen, Myrna and Rhea!) made most, if ... READ MORE

A Postcard Project

11.04.2014 by Leah //

A few months back, I chanced upon this blog post by the DiploWife about a small shop in Berlin selling pretty souvenir items and paper products.  She shared pictures of the beautiful Berlin postcards she acquired from her trip in that shop, all of which looked fantastically 'real' because of the 3D-like effect. The idea of a postcard challenge came about from this blog ... READ MORE

Liam’s Blue World

10.28.2014 by Leah //

My nephew Liam celebrated his 4th birthday 2 weeks ago and of course, his Ninang Tita (that's me!) took a leave from her work and flew to Cebu to be with him on his special day.  Like last year, we celebrated it at an out-of-town resort. I can't believe that this boy who, as an infant, always cried his lungs out during bath time is now learning how to make sisid and do a lot ... READ MORE

Discovering the Rich Indonesian Cuisine

10.26.2014 by Leah //

Sometime last month, I received a basket full of food stuff from Indonesia (thanks so much, Mba Dyah!): It was my brother who hand carried them all to Manila (thanks Dino!) and I got really excited after seeing all those boxes of Munik seasonings.  AJ and I are already fans of Indomie instant noodles (they have really interesting flavors!) so being introduced to Munik ...

Bag Crush: Sakroots Crossbody Satchel

10.23.2014 by Leah //

My newest bag crush is Mommy Juvs' Sakroots Crossbody Satchel in a flower power print.  So pretty! When I saw her bag, which is made of uncoated canvas, I immediately thought of my Tulisan Hobo Tote Bag. How I wished I brought it with me to Cebu last weekend.  Sister bags sana ang peg namin, hihi! I love, love the fabric print of her bag. It's like a happy mural ... READ MORE

The Good Stuff #6

10.22.2014 by Leah //

It's been a while since I last wrote about food, and it's not because I have ran out of food discoveries to share.  I guess I got too comfortable instagramming my food and sharing it real time, instead of making an effort to write about it in the blog. And because I'm not creative at all when it comes to captioning my Instagram photos, I would leave out a lot of details that ... READ MORE

The Foreveryday Ring

10.14.2014 by Leah //

I'm very happy to introduce to you The Bright Spot's first Holiday Jewelry Offering, which took some months of planning with my jeweler because I wanted to make sure that it's gonna be within everyone's budget: Yes, it's an eternity ring but is MORE than that! An eternity ring is perhaps the most romantic ring that a guy can give you.  It symbolizes never-ending love, ... READ MORE
