Product Review: Terro Ant Killer

01.12.2014 by Leah //

I'm introducing something new at The Bright Spot this year, and that is a regular feature on the products that I've tested or used, and can swear by its effectiveness (or the lack of it). I've done product reviews in this blog years ago but they're not as detailed as I wanted them now to be.  Also, product reviews this time will have a label ("Product Review") in the post ...

How to Clean your Saladmaster Cookware

08.04.2012 by Leah //

One question that I asked our Saladmaster consultants before deciding to get my Saladmaster cookware was how to clean these titanium steel babies.  If the method is going to be different from that of ordinary cookware, I might have some misgivings.  Ate Jane assured me that it's not gonna be an inch different from the way we clean our cookware and somehow that sealed the ...

The Multi-Tasking Lemon

07.19.2012 by Leah //

Can you guess what these are? Lemon peels! I'm having them dried under the sun when I took this picture last weekend.  I learned from Real Living's pocket magazine, Handy Hints and Instant Makeovers, that placing dried lemon peels in kitchen corners will keep insects away.   They also ward off silverfish (those little silver creatures you find your closets) and are a ...

Stanhome Try It

06.28.2012 by Leah //

What a funny name for an all-purpose cleaner! Don't be deceived though, by its uncreative name, because this super concentrated cleaner from Stanhome World is really effective. Just see how I was able to turn this dirty monobloc chair ... ... into a clean one in minutes, without the use of soap and water! I have actually just cleaned the top portion when ... READ MORE

Saving on Electricity

06.11.2012 by Leah //

Way before Meralco decided to increase their electricity rates, we have started investing in LED bulbs to replace our already energy saving light fixtures that still consumes around 12 to 15 watts for each bulb.    The LED bulbs are more energy- and cost-efficient, consuming only half of what energy saving lamps already use up. Akari's NXLED series were our favorite, and ... READ MORE

Cleaning an Electric Kettle

05.01.2012 by Leah //

Today is Labor Day and it's a regular holiday here in the Philippines.  That means no work, and lots of time for house work and blogging!   I made use of that free day wisely and was able to accomplish so many things:  cooking our lunch, updating my blog, organizing my office emails (opps, that's work but I decided to do it while I still have free time) and finally cleaning our ...

Getting rid of ants…

04.02.2012 by Leah //

When we few things we have to deal with when we moved into our apartment last year were the cockroaches and ants - black and red.    I tried to get rid of them using chalk roach and ant killers and citronella oil in burners which I light every week and place in our kitchen area. Now, we seldom have cockroaches at home (very, very seldom in fact) and I think it really helps ... READ MORE

Finally bought Chalk Roach and Ant Killers!

07.01.2011 by Leah //

Actually AJ did.  After much pestering from me (sorry!) he bought 2 boxes (4 chalks all) for us to try out.I've drawn lines already in all our kitchen cabinets.  Tomorrow I will continue with the cupboards.  I think it's better to do that in the morning so I could draw the lines better.  So there.  I hope I won't see creepy insects crawling in there ...

We were able to try the famous souffle pancakes an We were able to try the famous souffle pancakes and french toast of @grampancakesph without going out - thanks to @grabfoodph ! I used to love taking pics of food for #foodstagram but now that everything's in takeout boxes, nakakatamad mag-food styling hehe! Anyway, whether it's in fancy plate or takeout box - the food should still taste good. And this one definitely did not disappoint! The souffle pancakes were oh so good, and despite traveling in a box were really soft up to the last bite. Yumyum! #doitforthegram

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
