THE BRIGHT SPOT

Food. Travel. Bargain finds. Random thoughts. A bright spot for sharing ideas and starting conversations!

Dealing with a Preschooler, Discovering a Local Favorite and Shopping Organic Goodies (all in one weekend!)

08.13.2016 by Leah //

I was in Cebu last June to visit my family there and to spend quality time with my nephew Liam, who is now 5. What I thought would be a weekend of "catching up" activities with him turned out to be full of drama because we argued (a lot!) while playing games!  He is naturally competitive, and so am I!  Haha! We are still trying to resolve our 'little' conflict. I have ... READ MORE

[A.T.] Happy Garden Cafe

03.06.2016 by Leah //

Yesterday was one for the books: we survived an epic Saturday traffic that it felt like Friday all over again(!).  Travel time from Pasay City to Makati took an hour.  We made a short stop at Bel-Air Village (via Jupiter Street) for a delivery I have to make (thank you for supporting the Korean-made Nlighten products that I featured here, of which I am a distributor).  The plan ...

The Farm Tour at Gourmet Farms Estate

08.26.2013 by Leah //

If you recall from my post on our tour of St. Joseph's Sanctuary at Gourmet Farms, I mentioned about the Farm Tour that followed after that.  The Interactive Farm Tour is one of Gourmet Farms' attractions that is fast becoming popular, thanks to its recent feature on Kris TV: Since we were there as walk-in visitors (and there are no farm tours on weekends), we were not ...

A Different Dining Room at Gourmet Farms

07.21.2013 by Leah //

Three (3) Sundays ago, AJ and I went to Silang, Cavite with my good friend and kumare, Chel and her mom, Tita Chit.   We were there on a "secret mission" (will tell you when it's a done deal hehe!) and Tita Chit and Chel invited us to have lunch at The Dining Room at Gourmet Farms. It was my first time to be there, and I was totally "enchanted" by the place.   I love the ... READ MORE

Ritual: An Organic Grocery Store

05.09.2013 by Leah //

AJ and I were at The Collective again last Friday (after my work)  for a repeat meal at Wingman.  This time, we were  in the company of my cousin, Mae Anne and my second mommy, Mommy Caro, who is also one of our wedding Ninangs. Here they are  getting ready to devour the chicken wings! We had a big, big dinner at Wingman.  We ordered 2 dozens of  chicken wings, a salad, 2 ... READ MORE

Bohol Bee Farm

04.13.2012 by Leah //

I've read a lot of good feedback about the organic food at Bohol Bee Farm, and nothing much about the "bee farm" itself hehe!    But that's okay, I don't think I'll enjoy the farm tour too because by the time we got there it's past lunch and we're hungry so all we could think of was food! Without much ado, let me show you what we had and my usual satisfaction rating (with 5 ... 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
