THE BRIGHT SPOT

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

A Royal Engagement Ring for Marian

08.17.2014 by Leah //

Everyone's still talking about Marian Rivera's engagement ring - a Harry Winston emerald-cut diamond ring, no less! I'd say Dingdong Dantes couldn't have chosen a better ring for his queen, who now shares the distinction of having the same engagement ring design as the late Grace Kelly, an American actress and once Princess of Monaco. Grace Kelly's ring was from ... READ MORE

Note Cards from Tulisan

08.16.2014 by Leah //

I'm a person who never tire of receiving note cards. In fact, I love receiving them! But these note cards sent by Mba Dyah (all the way from Indonesia) are more special, because they are from one of my favorite brands: Tulisan! The brand Tulisan must be very familiar with you now because I already featured the handcrafted clutch from Tulisan that I got as gift also ... READ MORE

Power Breakfast with Nesvita

08.13.2014 by Leah //

I've not been diligent in updating my blog these past few days because I've been bringing work at home again (and answering emails at 10 p.m., yikes!), plus I've been 'home alone' for a week now because AJ is on a 3-week technical training abroad. It's our first time (as married couple) to be away from each other this long, but thanks to Viber and Skype, we are able to stay ... READ MORE

Going beyond diamonds with Signity Stones

08.08.2014 by Leah //

Big girls need big diamonds. This is one of Elizabeth Taylor's best quotes, and how I wish I listened to her sooner! You see, the price of sparkling diamonds has started shooting up again (after a temporary slump in 2008), and for last year alone, prices of rough diamond in the U.S. increased 10%. (source). How I wished I followed my alahera's advice to start buying the ... READ MORE

Stamp Blowout Sale from FineStationery.com

08.04.2014 by Leah //

I just have to share this upcoming sale from FineStationery.com because I love craft and address stamps and personalizing my paper stash at home with these! FineStationery.com, the first website in the U.S. that offered customized, personalized invitations and announcements on the web, will be having a one-day blowout sale in all their customized address stamps tomorrow, ...

Big Ideas from Wilcon Depot

08.01.2014 by Leah //

Yey, it's payday Friday!  I've just finished working on our budget envelopes and there's a few cash left that I can use for shopping, hehe! This also means that I can go back na to Wilcon Depot to finish my interrupted shopping hehe! If you will recall, I was invited to the bloggers' engagement 2 Saturdays ago by American Standard to learn about their newest ... READ MORE

A Taste of Vietnamese Banh Mi in Makati

07.30.2014 by Leah //

Thanks to my Ninang Caro, a food aficionado like me, AJ and I were introduced to this small, unadorned eatery at Mayapis Street in San Antonio Village, Makati serving really delicious Vietnamese banh mi or bread sandwich: Bon Banh Mi. "The National Geographic has ranked Vietnamese banh mi as one of the most 15 delicious sandwich of the world. According to Richard ... READ MORE

Dancing Jellies at Manila Ocean Park

07.26.2014 by Leah //

The first time I've been to Manila Ocean Park was in 2008, when I helped organized a Children's Christmas Party there with about 500 kids as guests.  Manila Ocean Park was fairly new then and the only attraction that I remembered from that trip was the Oceanarium - a stunning walkthrough of the watery depths featuring 7 sections and containing 1,900 cubic meters of seawater. ...
