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

Vom Fass Philippines: The House of Spirits

06.14.2014 by Leah //

We found this new shop at SM Aura selling vinegar, oils, spirits and wines in personalized bottles.  It's called Vom Fass and to those who are not familiar with it (like me, at first), Vom Fass originated from Germany where it pioneered the trend of selling spirits, wines and oils from the cask.  They are packaged in attractive bottles, making them ideal as gifts and lovely ...

Food Post: Project Pie’s Artisan Pizzas

06.12.2014 by Leah //

I'm kind of late writing about Project Pie Philippines, which almost everyone I know has tried already and gave it good feedback.  I got to try it only this year after they opened a new branch at Blue Bay Walk in Macapagal Boulevard, which is very near my workplace. I've gone back there for a few times already, always excited to try new flavors.  After all, this is the only ... READ MORE

Shopping for Lacoste Shirt (again!)

06.12.2014 by Leah //

My post about how to spot a fake Lacoste shirt has been getting inquiries from readers lately.  I was even asked to check a number of online and IG shops selling Lacoste shirts advertised as "authentic overruns" to see if they're, well, authentic. Unfortunately, I found most of these online shops selling the exact quality of the fake shirts I've bought.  It made me feel bad ... READ MORE

I’m in Good Housekeeping Philippines

06.09.2014 by Leah //

Can't wait to share with you this exciting news I've been keeping under wraps since April:  I wrote an article for Good Housekeeping Philippines and got published! The team behind Good Housekeeping Philippines read my blog posts about insurance (read my two-part posts here and here), and with the kind referral of Frances (of the popular blogs Topaz Horizon and Topaz ...

Food Post: Recess by Chef Chris

06.04.2014 by Leah //

AJ and I celebrated our 3rd wedding anniversary last week.  Since our anniversary day fell on a weekday (and I was not sure then if I can take a leave from work), we decided to celebrate it in advance last Saturday.  We had a lunch date at Recess by Chef Chris, located at Jupiter Street in Makati. We were very excited to try this restaurant because of Chef Chris, whose ... READ MORE

The Memorable Month of May

06.01.2014 by Leah //

I can't believe it's June already! I will best remember the month of May as the month when I took the 'big leap'.  If you will recall, I wrote about my plan to take more big leaps this year.  I had meant that for the blog, but it was meant to happen at my work instead.  Still, I wouldn't say that I wasn't prepared for it.  As early as last year, I've been getting signals ...

Kate Spade New York’s ‘Mandy’

05.31.2014 by Leah //

I was surprised with yet another gift 'bag', this time from my Tita Violy who lives in the US.  She gifted me with this signature 'Cedar Street - Mandy' shoulder bag from Kate Spade New York, in beautiful ivory color called 'Clock Tower'. The bag is made of Italian Saffiano calf leather, also known as Prada's signature leather. I never imagined myself to be owning a Kate ... READ MORE

The Bid is On for the Palawan Saltwater Pearl Necklace

05.28.2014 by Leah //

The bid/auction is finally ON for this gorgeous Palawan Pearl Necklace that I mentioned in my earlier post.  You can place your bids at my eBay.ph account.  For the sake of transparency, I will not accept bids outside eBay. Here's a screenshot of the eBay listing I made: A picture of me 'modeling' the pearl necklace.  I was able to capture the pearls' colors perfectly ... READ MORE
