Happy Valentine's Day! And because today is about celebrating love and romance, I am going to feature a very romantic jewelry set that is for sale. Yes, it's from my alahera based in Bulacan where I got my yellow tanzanite earrings that sparkles like diamonds, and some of my south sea pearls before I discovered Palawan's. The romantic jewelry I'm talking about is set in ... READ MORE
Worth the Splurge: Lacoste Shirts
Call me baduy but there's only one (1) item of clothing that I splurge on and that is a Lacoste polo shirt. The rest I buy only if discounted, hehe! My love affair with Lacoste shirts started when I was in college, where the students at the University I attended in wear Lacoste shirts like their uniform. But there's no way my parents, and more so I, will splurge on a ... READ MORE
A bad experience with JRS Express
I'm not supposed to write anything today but I couldn't help sharing with you the disappointments I had with JRS Express. Just this week, I had the misfortune of dealing with them for the 2 packages containing the items I ordered online. The first package contains the 2 Lacoste shirts I ordered from an Instagram seller. I've paid for these 2 weeks ago and up to now there's ... READ MORE
Sweet Birthday Moments
A big THANK YOU to all who greeted me on my birthday last Thursday! And in case you didn't know, The Bright Spot also turned 1 last February 5 so it's like a double celebration for me. AJ also surprised me with my favorite New York Cheesecake from Purple Oven and baked this Sugar-Dusted Moroccan Chocolate Cake na naubos agad! I chose to celebrate my turning 36 ... READ MORE
Waste Less: Disposing juice boxes and milk cartons
Now that the use of plastic is banned in Makati, we have ran out of plastic shopping bags to re-use as garbage bags. We buy those plastic garbage bags available in groceries and even though the package says 'biodegradable', they're still plastics to me and not totally environment-safe. To maximize the 'cost' of using these grocery-bought garbage bags, I have been folding ... READ MORE
Product Review: Asahi Convection Oven
If I will be asked to name a kitchen appliance that newly-wed couples should immediately invest in, it's the convection oven. We belatedly bought ours in August last year and right now, we use it more than we use our microwave oven and gas stove. There's just so much you can do with a convection oven and so much flexibility as compared to, say, microwave oven or oven ... READ MORE
2014 is the Year of the Wood Horse and of Living Smartly
Kiong hee huat tsai! So how did you spend the Chinese New Year? We are not Chinese but we celebrated the occasion with pancit for dinner. There's supposed to be pizza as well from S&R but the line was long and we couldn't wait 45 minutes for that. Anyway, the home-cooked pancit and hot pandesal were more than enough for us here (that includes me, AJ, my parents and ... READ MORE
Baked Creamy Mushroom Chicken
It's been a while since I shared a Saladmaster recipe. In case you don't know yet, I partnered up with my sis-in-law Juvvy 2 years ago so we can buy a Saladmaster cooking set for ourselves. The set was a very expensive one, but we managed to fit it into our budgets by splitting the items in the set, thus splitting the cost too. We got 3 items each. Since then, I've been ... READ MORE
