THE BRIGHT SPOT

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

Happy 1st Birthday, Liam!

10.18.2011 by Leah //

Today marks the 1st birthday of my nephew and godson, Liam Anthony!   He's my 1st pamangkin by consanguinity (he's my younger brother's first-born) so you could say without doubt that I dote on him pretty much. I clearly remember the day when he was born, he was far away from us (my brother and his family lives in the southern part of the country) so we were always excited ... READ MORE

Thomas Sabo

10.17.2011 by Leah //

Every time we're at Rockwell we pass by Thomas Sabo's store.   It looks like a very expensive store selling very expensive charms so for the longest time I've been controlling the tempt to check it out. Last weekend though, I saw that nobody's inside the store so I grabbed AJ's arm na and finally checked out their charms.   True enough, I was hooked the first time I laid my ... READ MORE

Red Curtains

10.16.2011 by Leah //

Our search for red curtains proved to be easy but challenging as well. We only checked 2 stores:  Landmark and SM, both in Makati.  We found none we liked at the Landmark and found more SM, which happened to be on sale on the day we were looking for red curtains. We narrowed our choices down to these 3 curtains, and had them placed alongside each other in a curtain rod.  ... READ MORE

Steve Jobs in TIME Magazine

10.16.2011 by Leah //

I'm not a fan of Macbooks (I owned one for a brief time but can't seem to have a hang of it) but I love the technology of iPhone and iPad. We bought this special commemorative issue of TIME Magazine dedicated to the works of Steve Jobs and all I can say is:  the man is a true visionary, a rare form today.  Rare because while others just envision things, Steve Jobs took risks ...

Caffe Ti-Amo

10.14.2011 by Leah //

Have you been here? Caffe Ti-Amo's specialty is the Affogato - vanilla or tiramisu gelato drowned in expresso!   Pure heaven! This Affogato comes with cashew nuts that I prefer to mix with the gelato and expresso. Can I just say that it's so good, so very good, in fact, but I must not have it too often because of the very strong expresso.   You see, I have been ... READ MORE

Lovely Home Items from Etsy

10.13.2011 by Leah //

I find it "therapeutic" every time I window shop at Etsy.   There's just so many lovely items to look at there, and unlike in real stores, here you won't be pestered by salesladies who follow you anywhere you go hehe (does this annoy you, too?). Among my current favorites  (again, for our home) are the following: Peace x Fork You x Rock Own Silverware Coat Hooks (shop ... READ MORE
