I can't remember the first time I saw a diaper / nappy cake but I do remember the time when I found out that an office mate of mine actually does it. I always wanted to make one but there isn't a chance for me to do so. Obviously since it's already a part time job of hers in a way, there's no way others would request me for it. There were some parties I've been to but laziness always gets me so I always end up buying clothes or toys instead. My moment came when I found out we're going to do a baby shower for a neighbor. I started to buy stuff I would need ASAP so that I have no reasons of putting it off for another party. The baby shower we were planning is for a baby boy so obviously all pinks are out. I thought blue and green would do but I cannot find the stripey one so I got both colors. When I began to assemble it I realize the color sucked and it looked so plain and sad. Maybe I should have gotten a colorful fabric. Initially I was only to do the banner fo...

We have arrived at Quirino probably past lunch time. I remembered we had breakfast at Chowking Santiago so my estimate is probably right. We ate lunch when we reached our house but an hour or two later, we are on the road again to Maddela. They recommended Governor's Rapids but after a long dizzying trip we've reached said place fully packed, cars are actually parked up to the road. We drove back somewhere else which my uncle said was part of of the waters at the Governor's but less tame. There was no entrance whatsoever. I don't even know what it was called! All I know is that it's rocky and the waters near the rocks are green with algae. At first I was up for going but seeing the algae brought the city girl in me. Nope. No amount of coaxing will make me dip my feet there! Everyone went at the rocky land as you see on the photo except for me and my sister who is also afraid of slipping. Took tons of photos though which looked so dramatic at this angle. What I hated...

We were told by our relatives (mother side) that our Mamang (Grandma) wanted to see us. So just in time for the Holy Week, we decided to visit her at Tarlac. Our final ETD is evening of Thursday and will be coming home by Sunday morning. With that in mind, we have two days to go to roam around the city... if there was anywhere to go. Upon our research we found out that there isn't much that Tarlac has to offer. Maybe because of their neighboring Clark that they decided to nothing about it. Or maybe Hacienda Luisita is just too large there is not much land left for recreation. Speaking of Hacienda, they do have a museum but it's not open for the holidays so that's already out of our IT. + Monasterio de Tarlac + We woke up a bit a late the next day (Friday) that the sun was already up when we started to drive to Monasterio de Tarlac. We passed by Tarlac TechnoPark but didn't bother to go since half of us are seniors and would probably not enjoy the activities they have th...

I was eating my cravings at lunchtime when I saw an office girl joined a group of older females also dining in. It didn't shock me when I overheard the two questions aged women never fail to ask their young counterparts: "Are you married?" (I guess she said no because...) "But you do a have a boyfriend, right?" (Cue me rolling eyes and stripping the flesh off a rib bone) I had a similar encounter sometime ago which I love recalling to friends because my aunt was just too brash: (*Well obviously this happened in Filipino so let me translate it for everyone) Tita: Joy lose some weight! How can you have a boyfriend with that? Me: (shocked at how she said it at our house, eating the food we prepared) Cousin: (probably embarrased too, even the neighbors might have heard with that decibel) She does, haven't you seen her Facebook? Me: (smiles, phew, it was over...) Tita: (paused but was able to recover) Why are you not married yet?!! You're getting old! Me: (th...

We started our journey right after breakfast and checked out. We navigated towards Taal which is hailed as Vigan of the South. We had high hopes for the so called ancestral houses but said buildings were a bit sparse and the moniker is just a bit exaggerated. It is clean though. For a town center it is very well maintained. We've visited Basilica of St. Martin of Tours, Asia's largest Catholic Church (yay!) in Asia and it's gorgeous inside. This is why I love going to Catholic Churches around the country because it's Art on it's own. There's also another smaller church we've been, Shrine of Our Lady of Caysasay. The facade is nothing special but the altar looks amazing. Maybe if they could renovate the exterior it would be so dramatic. None of the galleries were open when we came (it was a Monday) which is ironically what happened to us when we were in Vigan as well. We had lunch at Cafe G which is usually recommended at Taal. Cute interiors, food are ok as ...

La Chevrerie We are all in awe at the villa. The place is just comfortably huge you can fit like 7-10 people easy. There are tons of beds and the sofas are huge. There are also two baths, large TVs on both floors and an overlooking balcony. Even the table is good for hosting a large family gathering. The price of the villa is within the 20k++ range but I only get to pay half because the other half is the total price of what I won. Also my winnings include full course meals and a massage for two. I'm not comfortable with a massage so I had my sister and father claim that themselves. There are other rooms available but they are on a separate building below because the resort is not in level with each other; the pool, L' Atelier and most of the rooms are steps down. So in case by dinner time your calves are already screaming foul going up and down the villa and the pool you can just call the cafe to deliver your food. The pricing of the food is expensive as well (if you can afford...
