Goldilocks Girl

My penchant for Goldilocks spans decades. In the image above taken two years ago, I was eating a slice of Goldilocks cake which was one of the highlights during the christening of my inaanak, my friend's first child. Ah, happy memories of my past are starting to flow with the sight of this picture.I just want to share this to all of you, I'm kinda emotional now. Lol. If you wanna read more about my love affair with Goldilocks, read HERE.

A Piece of Panglao Island

Everyone wants the atmosphere of the beach. In WOW Philippines, I like Panglao beaches so much. I love the touch of the fine sands on my feet, it's not on the shore but on the seafloor. The water is so clear and warm. I can swim there all day long. It's priceless.That's why I always look forward to a Bohol vacation.

Hair Rebonding

I've always wanted to get a hair rebond and when I got the chance, I did. Now I'm sporting a new look that's very ideal for summer. I'm glad that my hair rebond turned out nice and my hair didn't look as if it was electrocuted. Rather, it looks more like it's my original hair. If you want a cheap hair rebond that's nice and effective, I recommend Edwin's Salon and Spa. They're the best. :)

Miniature Coke, Made in Thailand

Little things are always a pleasant sight. Just like these miniature coke-in-cans from Thailand. I've been avoiding Coke for weeks now as part of my goal to lose weight but when I encountered these cuties, I couldn't resist. Don't you just love them?

Summer is Everywhere...

...and I can feel it now. I can't wait anymore for my next summer adventure. I posted the image above to help spread the summer virus. I hope you get infected. :)

Pinoy Merienda

Summer has arrived. Whenever the hot season is here, I miss Pinoy snack or merienda.It must be the heat or the memories these yummy treats bring that elicit nostalgia in me.Whatever the reason may be, it makes me glad to be Pinoy. Over the years, our inherent passion for food has gone a long way. This is something that we can be proud of, too.I just hope that despite the continuous pursuit of higher education of our Pinoy chefs, they won't forget how to make Pinoy dishes, especially our varied types of Pinoy merienda.

My first summer adventure (Island Cove) gave me a chance to sample several types of Pinoy merienda that really made me stuffed and satisfied (photo above, clockwise: turon, puto bumbong, pancit palabok and bibingka). I hope to eat more of this food that makes me feel at home wherever I may be. :)

Full and Bright Moon

Tonight, the moon was full and bright. I saw it while walking on the way home from the fine dining restaurant where I work part-time. I wanted to capture that moment so I took a photo of the moon in its glistening glory. I used the blossoming branches of a tree as back drop to the moon and the image above was the result. I used my camera phone in taking the photo and the zoom was really bad. (I like the blurry effect, though.) I should've brought my new DSLR. Well, better luck next time. :)

Baby Back Ribs...I Want!

Who can resist this glorious food? I just can't. I'm craving for it today, actually. If only I could go to Cebu now so I can lay my hands on this great-tasting baby back ribs, then I would have gone to Casa Verde Restaurant in no time. Aaaahhhh...cravings.

Peñaranda, Nueva Ecija

Peñaranda is a small town in the province of Nueva Ecija. This is where I grew up. This is my native town. I hope I can regularly pay a visit to this place. The last time I went there was November of last year. I was with my Superfriend Nice. If there is a landmark that differentiates a town from another, then it could be the above irrigation system for my native town of Peñaranda. :)

There's a Rainbow Above the Sea

Edwin, Albie and I were riding a ship going back to Cebu City from Bohol when I captured this moment. I loved rainbows as a child. That's the reason why I instantly become reminiscent of my childhood whenever I see rainbows (I seldom do!). If I'm not mistaken, it is said in the bible that rainbows are a sign from God that He will never destroy the earth again through flood (Noah's time).
