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

Book Review: An Amish Wedding

02.05.2012 by Leah //

I have recently joined BookSneeze, which allows you to pick a book from their list, and will mail it to you - for free!   In exchange, you have to read and write a review about it.  Not bad, huh? I placed my request sometime last year and actually forgot about it, until I received a notice from the post office in December last year.   It was the book I requested from ... READ MORE

More on Little Tokyo…

02.03.2012 by Leah //

I think I went overboard with the pictures in my previous post that's why I'm not getting the spacings there right.     So I decided to split my post into 2, and in this one, I will feature the cool Japanese grocery store we saw along Little Tokyo. It's called Choto Shop and looks very much like Minute Stop hehe: Most items here are priced at P80.00, similar to the ... READ MORE

Little Tokyo in Makati

02.03.2012 by Leah //

Did you know that there's a little Tokyo at Pasong Tamo (now Chino Roces) in Makati?  It's right beside Makati Cinema Square (MCS).  Amazing that in my more than 20 years in Makati, I've never checked this out.   I mean, we almost always frequent MCS because it's near our place but we never bothered to check the Japanese restaurants lining up beside MCS.   It's a good thing my ...

An Overnight Stay at Naga and Legazpi

02.01.2012 by Leah //

I was in the Bicol Region last Friday for work.  We stayed overnight at Naga then traveled to Legazpi early on Saturday to visit our branch office and then see the majestic Mayon Volcano. This trip gave me an opportunity to use this Cath Kidston travel bag that I got as a gift last Christmas.   It's very roomy and easy to carry.  But it would've been better if there were ...

The Healthy Back Bag

01.31.2012 by Leah //

Last Christmas, my sis-in-law Juvvy gifted me with this functional and compact bag called The Healthy Back Bag (Baglett version).  This is my favorite weekend bag right now because it's so small and yet could pack so much.   Being the person who loves carrying all the stuff I could hold in my bag (because I don't want to forget anything as much as possible),  this bag is an ...

Gold Rings

01.29.2012 by Leah //

When I started my jewelry collection I was buying more rings than earrings or bracelets.   Although I never wear more than 2 rings at a time (not stacked but worn individually), I went on to buy more than what my fingers could wear hehe. My first purchases were those in white gold with moissanite stones, then I went on to buy some with yellow gold and real diamonds.  I have ... READ MORE

KC Concepcion on Rouge

01.26.2012 by Leah //

First, the new hairdo.   Now, a daring KC on the January-February 2012 cover of Rouge (photo source:  technobaboy): Didn't know she has a derriere that could rival those of Pippa Middleton and Kim Kardashian hehe.  Seriously, she looks so hot in here (good job, Rouge!) that I wonder if her ex-bf will have a sudden change of heart.  Your guess is as good as mine.   ...

Food Post: Orchard Road

01.24.2012 by Leah //

It's been a while since we last ate at Orchard Road, the restaurant which promised a taste of Singapore when it opened a few years back.   Their hainanese chicken meal used to be my favorite, and after an enjoyable meal of roasted chicken at Wee Nam Kee, I realized that we haven't tried the roasted chicken there yet.    So off we went to satisfy our cravings for yet another ...
