Rainbow Room Learning Center

Finally, the husband and I decided to enroll Eanna in a pre-school. We broadened our options aside from Explorations and Julia Gabriel and considered HEMS (a Montessori preschool in Mandaluyong), Mulberry  Preschool, and Preppi Kids. However, we decided to enroll her in Rainbow Room, which is inside...

Sickly Me

I had a terrible asthma attack last week. It was so terrible I was rushed to the ER. That was crazy. Imagine, I was just sleeping, having my afternoon nap, then all of a sudden I woke up and I couldn't breathe. What made it a worse feeling was I was just alone in our pad. The husband went out while the helpers and the little girl were downstairs in the clubhouse. I felt so helpless and all. When...

Books, Books

My books are finally here! Just a quick browse of Elle Decor's So Chic and Apartment Therapy's Big Book of Small Cool Sapces gave me the impression that my style is more of the Domino book type. Nevertheless, I can easily tell that these are great interior design books and will get a couple of tips...

Manila Zoo and Intramuros

One morning, the husband suggested that we go to Manila Zoo (probably the only zoo we haven't visited with the little girl). I was a bit hesitant but for the sake of my lovely kid's happiness, I finally agreed. Here she is looking cool and all... Here's a family pic... I didn't take that much pictures...

Time Out at Time Zone

Thanks to BPI's Time Zone promo, we were able to play for free! Here are the mechanics: For every PhP 1,000 credit card use, you get 30 minutes free. For PhP 1,500, 1 hour. Here I am getting hooked on those no-brainer arcade games... The husband shot some hoops (I did too) while the little girl rode...

Lunch in Tagaytay: Cafe Verbena

On our way back to Manila from our Canyon Cove trip, we decided to have lunch in Tagaytay. Initially I wanted to try out Marcia Adams' Little Tuscany, but learned that it is only by appointment. I thought it was too late already, so we had to think of something else. I haven't tried Raj (Indian cuisine)...

Canyon Cove Trip

Our family went to Canyon Cove in Nasugbu, Batangas for our first out of town trip for this current vacation of Enrik. What I like about this place is that the place is clean, there are two kiddie pools for toddlers and "bigger kids," the beach is considerably better than other beaches, and the rooms...

Neglected

I know, I know, I've been neglecting my blog. Actually, this really happens when my lover husband is home. But then again, I can't really make this as an excuse because I haven't stopped playing FB games (hehehe I'm at it again!). I was meaning to blog about a couple of things like our Canyon Cove vacay, but recent happenings (the hostage crisis, Miss U coverage, and the husband getting sick) have...

Eat, Pray, Love... and Sandals

Admittedly, I bought the book but never got to finish it. I'll probably read it before the movie comes out here. What I am interested though are the gladiator sandals that Julia Roberts wore... Image from CheapChicDaily I am a sucker for gladiator sandals, and the look above is kinda similar to what...

Back from Our Vacation

Whew. We just got back from our vacation in Canyon Cove. It was a tiring trip but while we were there, it was surely a fun and bonding experience for us. Aside from R&R, we got to try different kinds of food levels... The Good, The Bad, The Ugly! Hahaha. That's gonna be another post. In the meantime, the hubby and I have a couple of things to do for the next few days, and one of this has to do...

Our Foyer: Before and After

I am really loving our foyer's new lovely deep blue-green color. We have painted it a week ago and yeah, it's just now that I had the time to take a picture of it. Hehehe. BEFORE: AFTER: For some reason it's a bit turquoise-y in this picture. But it really looks like this... Nevertheless,...

Ikea Bead Roller Coaster

Got this toy for my little girl when we checked out the Ikea supplier in Palanan, Makati... Ikea "Mula" It was more than double the US price but oh well, I couldn't get it anywhere else and it is a cheaper option to her other wishlist, which is any of the riding toys that she always checks out in the...

Red Tips

I'm still sick. That's really a bummer because this reduces our opportunities to go out. You see, my dear husband's vacation this time is just short (he's leaving last week Sept) so we want to make the most of his vacay days. Anyway, what's keeping me a bit happy is this...  I know, it's might...

From Her to Me

The little girl got sick for two days, and I knew it. I knew that by the time she's feeling well, it's me who will get sick. And yes, I am sick now. I need a vacay. Well, not that I don't get enough of it... too much actually hahahaha. But really, I wanna go to this place... Just imagine waking up...

My Shopping Stereotype

Your Shopping Stereotype is Unique It's hard to stereotype you, because you simply buy what you like. You are a true individual. Sometimes you go high end. Sometimes you go low end. But you almost never go with the crowd. You don't settle until you find the perfect item. Shopping is one of...

Mad Men and Being a Housewife

I know, it has become a habit of me that I don't blog that often these days. Well, aside from the husband being here and that he prefers that I stay away from the Internet world as often as possible, I am also hooked on Mad Men. At first, I found it a little dragging. But then, it grew on me and now...
