THE BRIGHT SPOT

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

We turned 1!

05.28.2012 by Leah //

Today marks our 1st wedding anniversary. Can't believe it's been a year!  Time flies really fast when you're having a good time! We celebrated our special day by relaxing at Bellevue Hotel, where we also spent the night.  It was a much deserved staycation for us, too. Will post about our Bellevue experience soon, and we only have good words about their service and ... READ MORE

Saladmaster School of Cooking

05.27.2012 by Leah //

Our Saladmaster consultants, Rene and Jane, invited us to a cooking demo last Saturday.   AJ and I almost didn't make it because I suddenly have to rush something for work.  We got there halfway through the session, but managed to see some more dishes at work. I saw the versatility of Saladmaster cookware when they cooked 3 dishes simultaneously by stacking the cookware on ... READ MORE

Jessica Sanchez, World Idol

05.24.2012 by Leah //

About last week I was secretly wishing that Joshua Ledet would go home in the Final 3 showdown of American Idol.    I got my wish:  Josh Ledet was booted out of American Idol - leaving Jessica Sanchez and Phillip Phillips to compete for the top crown.   All of us thought that Jessica could easily win this one, as she is obviously the one with the  "voice".     And I thought ...

Xin Wang Hong Kong Cafe

05.21.2012 by Leah //

AJ and I saw this new restaurant at Mall of Asia (MOA) in one of our trips there last month.  Its called Xin Wang Hong Kong Cafe -  a modern restaurant that serves the best of Hong Kong, Singapore and Shanghai's street food. You gotta try their Cold Barley Drink (my favorite!) and this jelly drink with long johns and nata de coco - both are house ... READ MORE

Grilled Cheese Sandwich + French-Pressed Coffee

05.19.2012 by Leah //

We love grilled cheese sandwich!   I wish I could make this for our breakfast but if I will add up the cost of imported cheeses (you have to use at least 3 cheese varieties to come up with a perfect grilled cheese sandwich), big wholewheat or multi-grain loaf, and the spices that goes with it (to add flavor) - you'll realize that it's better off buying a ready-made one. Our ... READ MORE

A Surprise Delivery

05.17.2012 by Leah //

My orders from Human Nature just last Tuesday arrived today!  That's fast! It came in this custom-made box with Human Nature's logo in the front panel (very recyclable!): Look what's inside! I immediately tried the Citronella Bug Spray and I now smell of lemon-scented citronella hehe!    The smell was kind of strong when I first put it, but after a minute it was ... READ MORE

Online Shopping at Human Nature

05.15.2012 by Leah //

I love online shopping!  It's very convenient and is actually cheaper (even after factoring in the shipping cost) because you shop at the comfort of your home, away from the temptation of taking merienda or snacks at the mall, and from buying the things you don't really need. So when I learned about Human Nature's online shopping facility (click here to register), I ... READ MORE

More Food Adventure at Bohol Bee Farm

05.14.2012 by Leah //

Remember my post about Bohol Bee Farm?  That was the first stop in our overnight trip to Bohol last month.   We had a 100% organic and very filling lunch there, and then savored that again the following day on our way back to Cebu. Now don't think there weren't many food choices in Bohol (there are, in fact, plenty of local restaurants to try), but its signature organic ... READ MORE
