Party Bags for Christmas Goodies

by //

I found these Wilton-brand Christmas-themed party bags at the mall the other day, on sale at only P90.00 for a pack of 20 Christmas loot bags: The problem now is what will I put into these bags?  Already, I am thinking of the perfect goodies to give to my friends this Christmas.  One thing for sure, I will be mixing edible and non-edible items - just to be different  =) Now ...

Green Favorites

by //

I just realized that most of the beauty + hygiene products I'm using right now are in GREEN!  Check these out: Listerine's Natural Green Tea Antiseptic Mouthwash.   For a change, this mouthwash won't burn your gums.    It has a very light and pleasant taste that will make you gargle a bit longer just to savor it. Pond's Anti-Bacterial Facial Scrub.  I've been using ... READ MORE

Saw these at the Landmark Supermarket last weekend: AJ and I does our grocery, usually at the Landmark, every week.  We don't mind the weekly travels there at all  because it's near our place and near the churches we go to for Sunday mass. Almost 1/3 of our weekly expenses are spent on drinks alone.   We take them as "baon" at work and I sometimes bring 2 kinds with me at ... READ MORE

I have an online shop at ebay.ph and I have posted lovely items for sale there. Among those on sale are two (2) of my moissanite rings which were retired already in my jewelry box, and I feel that they would make really lovely engagement rings to would-be brides out there.   They're both designed by me and can be polished for free to make it look brand-new. This ring ... READ MORE

Finally! We got into Uniqlo!

by //

We have been looking forward to the opening of Uniqlo, the no.1 t-shirt retailer in Japan, at Mall of Asia last week after seeing the t-shirts on display a month before its actual opening.  I even joined (but didn't win) in their "Vote and Win" contest at Facebook hehe. AJ and I even made plans of going to Uniqlo's opening day last June 15, which we weren't able to do so ... READ MORE
