Flower Bouquet Cupcakes

05.15.2015 by Leah //

Just sharing with you these gorgeous-looking and super yummy caramel cupcakes I ordered from Blue Toque for my mom last Sunday, in celebration of Mother's Day.  It was the design that really caught my attention - lovely blooms in orange peach and green - making these floral cupcakes look like a bouquet when arranged in a plate. I've had my share of disappointing cupcakes ... READ MORE

Liam’s Blue World

10.28.2014 by Leah //

My nephew Liam celebrated his 4th birthday 2 weeks ago and of course, his Ninang Tita (that's me!) took a leave from her work and flew to Cebu to be with him on his special day.  Like last year, we celebrated it at an out-of-town resort. I can't believe that this boy who, as an infant, always cried his lungs out during bath time is now learning how to make sisid and do a lot ... READ MORE

An Afternoon of Stationery and Cupcakes

08.23.2014 by Leah //

After months of searching, I finally found available Cath Kidston paper products at National Bookstore today! Saw these at their branch in Rockwell Powerplant, but I'm not sure if they're available in their other stores as well: But guess what?  I surprised myself by not buying anything!  Nalula kse ako sa prices nila.  I can't find one that costs less ...

Chocolate Cupcakes with Cheesecake Chunks

02.23.2014 by Leah //

The hubby was in the mood for baking last Wednesday and made these delectable chocolate cupcakes with a twist (yummy!). He's also in the mood for another guest post here in the The Bright Spot, as there's an interesting story to tell behind these celebratory cupcakes that he made (no help from me this time, hehe!). Read on, and enjoy AJ's ... READ MORE

My Holiday Feast

01.02.2014 by Leah //

Happy New Year, dear readers! I just reported back to work today (after taking a 2-week holiday vacation) and was relieved to find my In-tray to be still visible (meaning, it's not swamped with memos and other paperworks).  I had no problems getting my work groove back because I've rested well during my vacation, and I think a lot of people are still on holiday break so ...

Cupcakes by Sonja spread the #sweetcause

11.03.2013 by Leah //

It's heartwarming to know that my favorite cupcake bakery, Cupcakes by Sonja, recently announced its partnership with Move.org, a non-profit organization duly on a mission to build schools and provide care for the underprivileged pre-school children. Dubbed as a #sweetcause, Cupcakes by Sonja and Move.org partnered together to create positive change in the lives of the ... READ MORE

Cupcakes by Sonja now open at Glorietta 2!

05.12.2013 by Leah //

Yehey!  Cupcakes by Sonja finally branched out of the Serendra Piazza in Bonifacio Global City!  It now has a branch at the newly renovated Glorietta 2 and I couldn't be more glad because it's now nearer our place! But I will definitely miss the smell of freshly-baked cupcakes and the  Cath Kidston prints from their Serendra store because the one at Glorietta 2 is more of a ... READ MORE

Sweet Birthday Gifts

02.13.2013 by Leah //

It's been a week since my birthday and I am still feeling high over the (almost) week-long celebration I had!    Not to mention the sweet gifts I got from my family and friends =) From AJ, I got this FitFlop pair in perfect pewter color.  I've been eyeing this pair for some time and I'm so happy I now have it! I prefer these slide Fitflop sandals over thongs.   It's ... READ MORE

Our first summit event under the new normal. It wa Our first summit event under the new normal. It was so nice to finally see everyone face to face and have uninterrupted discussions that lasted past 8pm! I get to enjoy free coffee the whole day too. ☕️☕️☕️ Two things I find cute though: everyone now carries a disinfectant spray or alcohol (in every shape and brand), and wears a lanyard for their face mask 😄  #NCRFSDSummit
