THE BRIGHT SPOT

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

Hello Kitty now flies!

05.11.2012 by Leah //

I saw this post from Sis Marjorie's blog and I know I just have to share it!  I'm a big Hello Kitty fan (as some of you may have obviously guessed by now, judging from the number of posts I've made about my favorite character in the whole world - Hello Kitty). Eva Air launched early this year their Hello Kitty-themed aircraft, and  according to Anna Wong, an EVA Air public ... READ MORE

You Are So Beautiful To Me, Jessica

05.03.2012 by Leah //

I've been following "American Idol" since I heard Jessica Sanchez sing Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You".   I just love her voice(!) and I'm so proud to see her evolve from a shy, petite girl with a small talking voice (but big and impressive singing voice) into a Diva that she is now. Tonight, the Idols were made to sing a song from the '60s and a British song.  I ... READ MORE

Finally, my own blog identity

03.30.2012 by Leah //

There is something about blog logos that really interest me.   In fact, that's the first thing you will see every time you "open up" a blog.    It's like the cover sleeve of a book.   If a cover sleeve has a really cool illustration or typography, it will attract a reader's attention.  Never mind if the book's title is nondescript, but a cool illustration or typography will ...

The Descendants

03.27.2012 by Leah //

I have this affinity for film adaptions.   It doesn't necessarily have to be based on the books I have read, but if a book or novel is made into a film, that for me is a sign that the story must be really good. After watching "The Help" without reading the book and liking it so much, I've been looking forward to watching another book-based movie.   We found "The Descendants" ... READ MORE

Food Post: Panciteria Lido

02.28.2012 by Leah //

I've been hearing about the pugon-roasted (pugon is brick oven in English) asado (roast pork) of Panciteria Lido and how good it was.     I've tried brick-oven cooked pizzas but roast pork?  This is gonna be my first. We were finally able to try it when we passed by a Panciteria Lido branch along Pasong Tamo, on our way to Waltermart. You won't miss the restaurant ... READ MORE

RIP Whitney Houston

02.12.2012 by Leah //

A tragic fall for the once Queen of Pop with a golden voice and a good-looking bodyguard in Kevin Costner (referring to her commercially successful movie, "The Bodyguard", in 1992). Whitney Houston was found dead early today at her room in a Beverly Hills hotel.  The singer's publicist, Kristen Foster, confirmed the news.  The cause of death was still unknown. Excerpts from ...
