THE BRIGHT SPOT

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

My Bag Organizer

07.05.2014 by Leah //

I thought I'm very organized already with my bag stuff by keeping small items in separate pouches.  I have a key pouch (for my keys at home and at work), medicine pouch, writing supplies pouch (for my pen, small notebook, calling cards and paper receipts which I recycle as writing papers too) and also a mini-vanity pouch (for my lip balm and travel perfume). But when I put ... READ MORE

Food Post: The Food Club

07.03.2014 by Leah //

I love trying out buffet restaurants, so when my Ninang Caro invited me, AJ and my cousin Mae to have dinner at The Food Club last month (to celebrate her birthday), we said yes right away! The Food Club is located at Blue Bay Walk in Macapagal Boulevard which, by the way, is fast becoming our foodie mecca because of the many new restaurants lined up there.  We always look ...

Tea Cup Gift Tags from Papemelroti

06.29.2014 by Leah //

Just sharing with you my cute finds yesterday at Papemelroti: Tea cup-shaped gift tags with hand-painted drawings.  So pretty! Up close: Each tag costs P5.00.  I bought 2 pieces of each design. Cute noh?  I love that they're cut and printed from recycled papers.  Perfect for the brown paper bags I've been using as wrapping papers. Have a good ... READ MORE

Mystic Biron Emeralds

06.27.2014 by Leah //

My dream gemstone is actually not diamond but emerald.  One of my wishes is to own Colombian emeralds - the purest emeralds in the world - prized for their superb quality, color intensity and brilliance. Natural emeralds, which are green varieties of the beryl mineral stones, are very, very difficult to source now.  This scarcity has resulted in it being even more ... READ MORE

Cath Kidston is on SALE!

06.21.2014 by Leah //

Tukso na naman!  Cath Kidston is still on sale and this time around, they slashed their prices prices further down, offering as much as 50% off on their popular bags, accessories and home items! So to those who have been wanting to buy Cath Kidston - now is the best time to do it! Since I've reached my shopping quota for this year already, all I could do is make a collage ... READ MORE

Roast Pork Tenderloin

06.21.2014 by Leah //

Another cooking milestone for me:  baking my first roast pork using just 5 ingredients:  pork tenderloin, 2 kinds of seasonings, olive oil and salted butter!  My pegs were Patricia and Ree's roast beef recipes, but I used pork tenderloin instead of beef. Ree used Lawry's Seasoned Salt and McCormick's Lemon and Pepper seasoning salt as meat spice rub. I tried to look for ... READ MORE

Bensani Charms

06.17.2014 by Leah //

I was reacquainted with my love with feng shui jewelry when I sat down with Grace (of Bensani Jewelry) over coffee and donuts last month, for a possible collaboration with The Bright Spot. It was my post about feng shui jewelry that brought Grace and I together for this big project, although I knew her for quite some time already because I buy my feng shui charms and ... READ MORE

Reviving my eBay Shop

06.15.2014 by Leah //

The very successful auction of my Palawan pearl necklace at eBay.ph some weeks ago motivated me to revive my neglected eBay shop.  I used to be a very active eBay seller, and have sold a lot of my pre-loved books, shoes, bags, jewelry and even music CDs through this online marketplace.  In return, I was able to buy myself a Philip Stein watch and a pair of loose south sea ...
