Rustic

This is the Starbucks 2012 planner and the wooven pouch that came with it. I like that the planner's cover is made of wood, it kinda exudes a rustic feel. I'm thinking of having it drawn or painted with a personalized artwork. :)

Starbucks Planner 2012

Got my Starbucks planner today. :)

Brekky

Breakfast was served before our learning session at work this morning. Bacon, hotdogs and toast all-you-can. Yeba!

Chocolate Crinkles

Bought this jar of chocolate crinkles at Good Shepherd, Baguio. Super sarap! I'm close to finishing this all by myself. Haha Takaw lang. ;)

Real Christmas Tree

The Christmas tree at The Manor's garden area is a real pine tree decorated with ornaments. Coolness!

BenCab Museum

This morning, we went to the BenCab Museum. Pa-cultured! Hehe Aside from the art galleries, a must-see in the area is the garden at the back of the museum. There's a man-made pond with a nipa-hut-sort-of-gazeboo in the middle, amidst lush greens and mountain backdrop. Simply breathtaking...

Hello, Baguio!

Thanks to my new work, I'm back in the City of Pines after almost three years. I love this place!

The photo below is the view from my teammates' room at The Manor, Camp John Hay. Chochal! :)

Kindle Fire

I'm so happy with my new toy and so, today's photo is still of it. Hahaha

I just love it! Thanks, Daddy-o! :)

Surprise!

My birthday's in 10 days and I got an early "surprise" birthday gift from my loving husband... I absolutely love it!!! Thanks, Daddy-o! You're the best! Love you!

Play Time with Miggy-o

Got home early today. Early as in before 7PM! Love it. Miggy was still awake and full of energy so we had some play time bonding before he fell asleep. Here's a photo of him while playing...

Candid

Took this candid photo of my boys earlier while we were visiting my in laws. I laughed when I saw that the shot captured a "nganga" and a "nguso" moment. Hehe Cute!

Wedding Cake

Chi and Des' wedding cake

Cara Mia

Uber yummy cake dessert at Cara Mia...

Swoosh

Got bored in the train. Took a photo of the hot pink swoosh on my backpack. :)

New Beginning

Excited for Monday! Can't wait to be a part of this... :)

Cars Diaper Bag

I bought this uber cute Cars diaper bag at Baby Company earlier today. I'm already okay with my current diaper/baby bag but I couldn't resist buying this one. I just love Cars stuff.

It's a sling bag, perfect for short trips such as check ups, going to the mall, etc. I love it!

Jen Turns 1 in SOI

This is my pretty officemate, Jen. Today is her 1st anniversary in our company. We celebrated with a slice of sans rival cake, which was given by her sup, Matie, who also happens to be our good friend. We are like a unit, the three of us. :)

Happy 1st anniversary, Jen. Sana huwag nang umabot ng 2. Hahaha Patience is a virtue. Alam mo yan, teh! Mwah. :)

Carbon Copy

I was browsing my phone album earlier and noticed that Miggy's recent shot is somewhat similar to one of Paul's childhood photos. I put the two photos side by side using Pic Stitch and here's the result...

3-year old Paul on the left and 9-month old Miggy on the right... They look so much alike no?

My Baby Legolas

Took this photo earlier today, during my play and 'rambol the room' time with Miggy-o. Ain't he the cutest?

I sometimes call him my baby Legolas... Just look at those elf-like ears! Haha Guess whom he got them from? Moi! :)

Gamberetti

We ate lunch at Gorky's Pizzeria, a casual Italian bistro located along Pasong Tamo Extension. It was my first time to dine there. I had the (not so) spicy shrimp gamberetti plus a slice of Hawaiian pizza. The pasta's presentation could have been better, but the taste - I had no complaint. I loved it. Next time, I will try their alfredo.

Chicken & Mushroom

Paul and I grabbed dinner at Jollibee before heading home. He had the chicken and spaghetti meal + extra rice. I was planning on getting the same order but I saw a poster of the new product, chicken & mushroom spaghetti and got curious, so I tried it. I ordered a Coke float, too.

At a glance, it looked just like the regular jolly spaghetti minus the hotdogs. The chicken and mushroom were hardly visible. It didn't seem so delicious. But when I tasted it, man, it was good. Ground chicken and mushroom bits in bolognese sauce make a tasty combination. If the jolly spaghetti is very Pinoy-tasting (more on the sweet side), the chicken and mushroom spaghetti tastes very Italian. I like it. I'll definitely try it again. :)

Chamomile Tea

This morning, before heading to the office, I dropped by Starbucks to buy chamomile tea. I like its smell, so relaxing, I feel like I'm in a spa having aromatherapy. :) And oh, this is my 2nd sticker for the planner. 15 more to go. :)
