partying late at Delifrance!

right after our PMG Sales Salo Salo at Limketkai, our all girls groupie went straight to Theater Mall for our Kris Kringle revelation...we were supposed to do it at Starbucks but the usual it was jam-packed and it was very well-timed that alongside Delifrance was mostly unoccupied...


i was all excited when it's already my turn to open my box...guess what i got? P500.00 worth of Orita papertowels! i love papertowels and i love receiving it , it make sense preferably than those dust collectors :)


Ciel and Minerva, see how excited my friend??? truly, she wants this surprise look more bona fide...hehehe


groupie...(L-R: Ana, Jingky, moi, Jing, Cata, Len, Minerva, Lene, Roma, Zanne, Dana, Ciel and Jam)


Delifrance's cappuccino taste so so good...P96/single order

for the nth time...Merry Christmas everyone!

a week ago...

about a week ago, i had the chance to go out again with my college buddy, co-worker, and kumare Minerva...this time it's just the two of us who bonded the whole day (minus Ana and Cata). we have been planning for this fairly long but we you see we are equally busy during the past two quarter. finally, we had the chance to go on sched VL both last Dec 3 and had the chance to do some girl thing...


i took this photo after finishing my tall dark cherry mocha (hot), i was some kind of 30mins waited for Minerva at Starbucks, Shangri-la...but tell you my waiting is so so worth :)


...because she brought me this hair straigthening iron, curler in one! this is her early Christmas gift for me and i love it! thank you my dear friend, you're the best...hehehe

she was really an angel that day! my christmas santa all in one! she treated me on a lunch buffet at Hotel Intercon's Jeefney Cafe...the imported cheese selection was such a treat alone! dunno if it has something to do with the year of the rat but i'm becoming a big fan of cheese lately :)

at Jeepney Cafe --see how my steak was cooked? gross!! actually i ate it with bloody clot all over...


after a bursting lunch, we both shopped a pair of stiletto for our company wide christmas party set last dec 5. all the way from makati, we ended our day at Megamall...and have a pretty relaxing moment at Mocha Blends.


Frap from Mocha Blends, nothing so special with this blend...it's just that Starbucks was under renovation so we have no choice...

well, it was indeed a great day!

ICS Christmas Party at Crowne Plaza

it all happened last Friday (Dec 5) at Crowne Plaza...dinner, raffle and surprises from the newbies (did remember our newbie presentation 8 years ago...hehehe)

this year's theme was Masquerade (di naman obvious...di bah?) and everyone came so so stylish and i love my scarlet ruffled dress more than ever :)

uploaded some pics here --



right after the party, my group went to Tiendesitas and we had coffee and chitchats at Starbucks and Oliver joined us too...


we look good together in his favorite color...he just loves RED all year round!

OUTLET shopping and our Sunday road trip...

i stopped liking those mall sale that says 3-day Sale, Midnight Madness Sale or those Clearance Sale basically because of the stress out and the quality of items you get from it. after a decade i realized how stupid i am to be fooled by mall operators who simply changed labels and tags and put a sale value (accordingly??)...hay! probably this entire bloggin' activity had changed my preferences and my taste for SALE :)

it's everything last Sunday... from our outlet shopping to our unplanned road tripping, good heavens that oil prices have stabilized!


at Greenfield City's commercial zone -Paseo de Santa Rosa, it's a shopper's haven! as the retail and commercial component of the thriving business zone, Paseo de Santa Rosa is envisioned to become a complete town center designed to complement and upport the growing needs of the area with diverse services. restaurants, sporting goods shops, banks, service centers, fast food outlets, trade fairs, mini-concerts and the Santa Rosa Country Market are just some of the well-received attractions of Paseo de Santa Rosa. Patrons can look forward to a similar entertaining, dining, and shopping experience at Paseo 3, where excellent food, soothing music, and great finds converge in this flourishing business and residential environment. (text from Greenfield City’s official website)

Outlet Shops at Paseo - Levi's and Dockers (50% off the tag), All Flip-flops (20% all year round), Gas/UCB/Sisley, Nike Outlet...i wish we had plenty of time last Sunday but will probably be back before Christmas :)


our next stop was at Pavilion Mall Binan, Laguna developed by Ayala Land Inc and house to GUESS Outlet, Levi's, Bayo, Plain and Prints to name a few...again, we barely have time to further look around...


we stopped at nearby SM Sto. Rosa for an hour to do our grocery shopping (actually it's Nanay's list so we cannot let pass or else...you know!)


along the road, we stopped to buy Kesong Puti for our veggie salad...Oliver and Arman bought yougart and pastillas too -lavet!


by 7pm, we finally hit the heart of Tagaytay and stopped at the newly opened Summit Ridge...Robinsons Supermarket was packed with tourist spending the weekend away from the city.


nearly 8pm and before Tatay's arrival from the church we made it home...all tired, all hungry, and all satisfied with our Sunday road trip. it's a happy meal that ended our day :)






Jack's Loft Dinner with Che...

i have no one last Friday as Oliver was supposed to meet Rolly at Talyer for a couple of drinks and earlier i decided to go home early too but plainly Che happened to be in Ortigas area and we end up having dinner at Jack's Loft Galleria branch...woot! thought i'll be spending my friday night with my two bebies again...


we had Jack's Chicken Salad Panini and Chicken Fingers and Fish Bowl Iced Tea :)

total damages for the night P470+
