Colouring for Mindfulness

09.19.2015 by Leah // Leave a Comment

I have to confess, the trend of adult coloring books was at first totally unappealing to me.  I mean, I have a lot on my plate already, how can I still find time for this?  Also, they're just 'coloring books' and yet they cost more than P500.00? Crazy, right?

Inexpensive Gold at National Bookstore

07.24.2015 by Leah // 5 Comments

I almost squealed with delight when I saw this set of gold paper and binder clips at National Bookstore earlier.  Priced at only Php 170.00 (or less than $4.00), these are definitely inexpensive gold nuggets hihi!  Lakas pa maka-Kate Spade! Sorry for the bad lighting.  I took pictures of these right after I got home ('cos I can't wait till tomorrow to share my good ... READ MORE

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 ...

Holiday Book Gifts

10.09.2013 by Leah // 7 Comments

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 ...
