THE BRIGHT SPOT

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

An Illuminated Christmas

12.09.2012 by Leah //

I love the way our malls and establishments are lit up during Christmas season.  And it's not only the Christmas trees that are illuminated but the garlands, wreathes and flat sculptures as well.  In that way, even the simplest decors become astonishing with the help of Christmas lights. Take for example the Christmas decors at Rockwell Powerplant Mall in Makati.  They ... READ MORE

Shopping Bags and Wrapping Ideas

12.02.2012 by Leah //

One day I was cleaning our storage cabinets and found a number of shopping bags that have been stored away, forgotten. Then an idea hit me.  Why not recycle them as "wrapping bags" for my Christmas presents this year?   I've read of others who have done it before and this post from 101 Grams of (Eye) Candy totally nailed that idea. Her "reduce, reuse, recycle" ... READ MORE

What the ….??

Saw this while stuck in traffic earlier. I wonder what they're serving in there?   Food with feelings?  A meal with free companion?   Haha!   ... READ MORE

St. Anthony of Padua

10.13.2012 by Leah //

I received this lovely charm necklace with St. Anthony de Padua in it from my officemate this week.    Thank you so much, Ate Au for this thoughtful gift! Often depicted holding the Christ Jesus, St. Anthony de Padua is one of the most beloved saints in the world, and is the patron saint for lost items. Let me end this post by sharing with you this beautiful prayer to St. ... READ MORE

John Lennon @ 72

10.09.2012 by Leah //

I've always found it cool to have had a lola (grandma) who shared her birth date with John Lennon, my favorite among the Beatles.   My mom would always kid me for forgetting to greet my lola on her birthday, and yet I never fail to forget that it's John Lennon's birthday hehe.   Weird, huh? I'm glad that I wasn't born in the 60's or I would end up stalking the Beatles too, ... READ MORE

Beat the Holiday Crowds and Shop Early at Zalora

Shopping at Zalora is now made more easy with their special delivery services (terms and conditions apply).   Now we don't have to worry about the insane traffic in and out of the malls.  http://www.zalora.com.ph   ... READ MORE

Food Post: Amici Don Bosco

09.08.2012 by Leah //

From its humble beginnings at the St. John Don Bosco compound in Makati City, Amici Don Bosco became a household name with its Italian pasta dishes, pizzas (that are baked in brick ovens) and gelatos that are simply to-die-for.    People also raved about their cafeteria-type environment and  self-service concept.   The servers will only bring you the plates and the food; you ...

Dios Mabalos, Sec. Jesse

09.01.2012 by Leah //

I was at Naga City the other day for work and we took this opportunity to pay our final respect to Sec. Jesse Robredo, who passed away last  August 18, 2012.   Much has been said about his humility, simplicity and silent achievements as Mayor of Naga City for 19 years.  It was evident during our visit how much Naga loves him - every Barangay has placed a tarpaulin with their ...
