I had so many things planned out today because it's a holiday (Eid al-Adha). I wanted to officially start wrapping Christmas gifts (can't wait to use all those washi tapes I've collected these past months!) and prepare the stuff I'll bring to Cebu this Friday for my nephew's 3rd birthday but, while having my late breakfast this morning, I read about the strong earthquake that ...

Palawan Freshwater Pearls
Sorry for the lack of posts, I was on travel last Friday for work and as luck would have it, my destination was Puerto Princesa in Palawan and our work was scheduled on a Friday! We were able to squeeze in an island-hopping activity the following day (a Saturday) before flying back to Manila in the evening of the same day. You must remember that some months ago, I shared ...

Holiday Book Gifts
They say that book gifts are difficult to give. But I find that to be the opposite because all my friends love to read books! I can't name one who does not. Even my inaanaks (godchildren) love to read books. Almost all of them are in primary school now so I think books are something that they will find very useful, especially if they are educational or informational in ... READ MORE
Weekend Shopping + Food Trip
If you're following me at Instagram (I am @dbrightspot there), then you've probably observed how sipag I was in updating it since yesterday. That's because I was able to visit my favorite shopping places this weekend and I went home very happy with my loot! This time around, I didn't buy much for myself. I shopped mostly for Christmas gifts. My goal is to finish 80% of ... READ MORE
Holiday Gift Idea: Arm Candies!
Who wouldn't fall in love with these stackable arm candies? I found them today at 168 Mall in Divisoria while looking for the perfect holiday gift to my office colleagues. 95% of them are female, so accessories are good choices as they'll sure need these to glam up their holiday looks! I thought of buying the same style I bought for myself some months ago (check out ... READ MORE
Baked Yogurt Parmesan Chicken (a melt-in-your mouth chicken dish)
This was our fantabulous chicken dinner last night, paired with pesto macaroni pasta: You all know my not-so-secret-anymore recipe for the pesto pasta (check it out here!) and as I forgot to stock on pasta noodles, we just bought whatever we could find at the supermarket. The smallest pack available happened to be the macaroni noodles, thus the awkward noodles + pesto ... READ MORE
IKEA Frosta Stools
I have a long-standing crush on this IKEA Frosta Stool. I originally wanted these for our dining chairs. But I couldn't find any IKEA furniture at the malls, so we bought a 4-seater dining set at Mandaue Foam instead. No regrets there. I love its simple design and dark wood finish. However, that did not stop me from lusting after these Frosta stools! Thankfully I ... READ MORE
Learning the Art of Calligraphy
I've been a fan of calligraphy since I was I kid. I have this Speedball Textbook (20th Edition) that I bought with my own allowance which, sadly, I can no longer find (sob!). (Photo source here.) I also saved up for this Parker Calligraphy Set, bought when I was in high school, that I still have to this day. I wish I've kept some of my calligraphy 'doodles' ... READ MORE
