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

Happy Mother’s Day!

05.12.2013 by Leah //

My favorite Mother's Day quote (which I posted at my personal Facebook account): A baby asked God, "They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow, but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless?" "Your angel will be waiting for you and will take care of you." The child further inquired, "But tell me, here in heaven I don't have to do anything but sing ... READ MORE

Morning Quote in Letter Stamps

05.11.2013 by Leah //

The quote above is from James Russell Lowell, an American poet, critic and editor.  I chose this for my first letter stamp project because my week at the office was so stressful and unpredictable.  To be able to survive, I try to look at the positive side of things.  And this quote totally nailed it - my thoughts and sentiments exactly. I used the thick typeletter stamps I ... READ MORE

Ritual: An Organic Grocery Store

05.09.2013 by Leah //

AJ and I were at The Collective again last Friday (after my work)  for a repeat meal at Wingman.  This time, we were  in the company of my cousin, Mae Anne and my second mommy, Mommy Caro, who is also one of our wedding Ninangs.

Just sharing with you this super good deal on Music Angel Mini Speaker with FM Radio at eBay.ph right now: It's a steal at P399.00!  I bought one for my mom at Greenhills 2 weeks ago (not the Music Angel brand but very much the same as this one) at P500.00.  I wish this one was offered a tad sooner!

Alphabet Stamps

05.04.2013 by Leah //

I seriously got carried away with this stamping project I did 2weeks ago that I have started my own collection of wood-mounted rubber stamps! And look what I found at 168 Mall last Wednesday:  alphabet stamps!  I got myself 3 sets in different typefaces.  Had there been more typefaces available I would have probably gotten them all, too! I found them at the same stall ... READ MORE

Family Mart, Japan's 3rd largest convenience store chain, is finally here in Manila!  It opened last April at Glorietta 3, and has since invaded Instagram and Facebook with its many instant fans sharing pictures of their favorite snacks there. Aside from basic grocery items, Family Mart sells its own ready-to-eat food items like sandwiches and bento meals like cold noodles ... READ MORE

Summer Heat Relief Efforts

05.01.2013 by Leah //

I did a little shopping last weekend to help me combat the heat wave we're having right now: Although I always have my hair in a bun using big hair claws,  I still feel hot and uncomfortable. With the weather at 34-36 degrees Celsius everyday, the simple hair bun doesn't help anymore.  So I tried a mid-high hair bun using the hair claws and while that greatly helped in ... READ MORE
