THE BRIGHT SPOT

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

A Day at Sky Ranch Tagaytay

04.30.2014 by Leah //

It's been years since I've last been to an amusement park.   Although it's a happy place to be in, I just cannot understand why the passes and rides have to be so expensive.  I guess this is the reason why twice ko lang na-visit ang Enchanted Kingdom, hehe. When AJ and I made an impromptu stop at Sky Ranch in Tagaytay last Sunday (where we spent the weekend with his family), ... READ MORE

Nescafe Cappuccino Coffee Mix now available!

04.28.2014 by Leah //

Having spent our weekend in the land in Amadeo coffee, it sure was a delight for me to be welcomed home with this gift from Nescafe (and Nuffnang Philippines): Sakto rin because I think I drank too much black coffee while in Tagaytay, and my body is craving for a much "lighter" coffee drink but still with the aroma and flavor of freshly brewed coffee. Cappuccino has ... READ MORE

The Bobby and the Guard

04.25.2014 by Leah //

This isn't much of a blog post.  I stumbled across this salt and pepper shaker set in the shape of a British bobby and a guard, which I think is too cute not to share! Quirky British touch + vintage design + floral plate in the background.  Parang Cath Kidston noh? It's from Cath Kidston nga! Oh please be mine! ... READ MORE

An Adorable Throwback: “Super Mario Brothers” played in Violin

04.23.2014 by Leah //

A big thanks to my Facebook friends for sharing this awesome video! I've watched it 5x already, and that's just for today! If I will be asked to name one thing I miss about childhood summers, that would be playing Super Mario Brothers with my brother (Dino) in our Family Computer! Dino and I treasured for years this Nintendo Family Computer which we got as ... READ MORE

Baked Dory with Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto and Cheese

04.21.2014 by Leah //

I have a confession to make:  the only fish that I can cook is the dory fish! I like that it's readily available in the supermarket - cleaned and vacuum-sealed.  It doesn't have tinik and most of all, hindi sya malansa. During the lenten break last week,  I made sure to stock on some dory fish to cook at home since we decided not to go on a lenten 'holiday' this year.  I ... READ MORE

Easter Sale!

04.19.2014 by Leah //

There is an ongoing sale (and a BIG sale at that) at my site partners' online stores, and I am so tempted to buy, buy, buy even if I don't have an immediate need for them because, alam nyo na, sayang ang sale hehe! But I think these purchases can be justified as 'investments', particularly for my "travel essentials".  You see, AJ and I are seriously thinking of traveling to ... READ MORE

Food Post: COCA Cafe @ SM Jazz Mall

04.16.2014 by Leah //

I discovered COCA Cafe at SM Jazz in Makati - by accident. I thought it was the same COCA Restaurant that AJ and I saw SM Aura, but weren't able to try yet.  We were happy to find 'it' at SM Jazz Mall during one of our weekend strolls there. I asked the male attendant at COCA Cafe if this is the same restaurant with branch at SM Aura and he said he did not know. I ... READ MORE

Caring for your Pearls

04.12.2014 by Leah //

Now that summer has officially set in, I become more mindful of the summer heat's effect on my pearls. I was once very addicted to south sea pearls, but I 'temporarily' stopped buying after my 6th set because they require more care than my other gemstone jewelry.  I have mostly pearl earrings (as seen above), with matching ring or pendant. Because they're plenty, ... READ MORE
