06.02.2017 by Leah // 4 Comments

Hello, I'm back!   Guess what I did during my month-long absence from blogging? Clue: Our office celebrated its 80th founding anniversary last week, where we had activities lined up for both employees and our stakeholders.  The most anticipated activity was of course the Employees's Night which took place last Friday (May 26) at the PICC.   The theme was the 80's, and ...

A much awaited package for me arrived yesterday.  It's from Ms. Ellen (of The Pseudoshrink) and if you've been reading her blog you'll know that she's a Cath Kidston fan like me  =) Last June, Ms. Ellen, Diane (of Diane Wants to Write) and I "joined purses" together and ordered items from the Cath Kidston online sale, using Ms. Ellen's account.  It was Ms. Ellen who invited ...

Mad about Cath Kidston

07.09.2014 by Leah // 7 Comments

Lovely things to brighten up any day of my week: Obvious lang na addict na ako sa Cath Kidston   =) My fervent wish right now is for someone to bring the Cath Kidston franchise here in Manila.  It remains a mystery to me why nobody is taking interest in the brand, considering that it already has a big following here in Manila. In the meantime, online shopping is ... READ MORE

Holiday Gift Guide for Tween Girls

09.19.2013 by Leah // Leave a Comment

Don't you love it when you see two or more items inside your gift box?  Not only do I find that extra thoughtful of the giver; I also appreciate the effort that goes with picking which items go together and making sure that the recipient will like everything. Last Christmas, I tried putting together some bath items and packed them as Christmas goodies for my office ... READ MORE

Quiapo’s Best Kept Secret: Wellmanson’s

11.22.2011 by Leah // 18 Comments

I first heard about Wellmanson's from an officemate who loves doing beads craft.   One day, she took me there and I was totally blown away with the many beaded items and jewelry materials / supplies available for sale.  It's virtually a mecca for all those who love accessories. Fast forward to 2011, I became a member of the Weddings at Work community and almost all ... READ MORE

#throwback to Easter 2019 when @ajdeleon77 and I t #throwback to Easter 2019 when @ajdeleon77 and I took mommy and daddy to a double date at Rockwell Powerplant. Today is daddy's 11th month in heaven 💜 The coming weeks are sure going be tough for me because the painful memories from last year will start coming back as we approach his 1st death anniversary. I miss our family bonding time whether in Cebu or Makati, at the mall or simply at home.

More than half of the leaves dried up.  But look, new buds have started to say 'Hi' just last week 🤗 Need talaga ng patience kapag #plantita ka. 😁
