to do

Note to self: Will be doing a lot of offline tasks tomorrow, even the weather seems to be not so coordinating, been raining since last night and the news said that a typhoon might hit the upper part of the country. Oh well, but what to do, I need to finish the errands that was supposed to be done earlier this week. Like going to the mall and buying stuff for our family friend's who are adopting my husband every weekend in KSA, actually, I'm still clueless on what to give them so I better head early to the mall and scout for a perfect gift for them. I also need to look for porcelain tile supplier that my mom asked me to, she's into renovating a room in the house and was thinking of a perfect flooring for that. Gotta do some shopping too for the early Christmas party of the MBAP's two weeks from now, and outfits too! Oh it's gonna be a busy busy day for me... now, signing off!

Apple.

So it's obvious that family loves and embraces Apple products specially their ipods. Actually, it wasn't really begged by me and my sister from our Pop, glad that he was such a techie lover thus he buy great stuff for us! here are our three ipods in different genres, the itouch is the latest addition while the iphone was given to me by the husband last month. Thank heavens for having such a thoughtful dad and husband! And speaking of Apple brand, I am still hoping and wishing to own a Macbook in the future, I just hope that blogging stint will soar high so i'll be able to grab one :D Apple rocks!!

uhh! not again!

Yes I had my fave iced macchiato fix, and yes, they just got my name misspelled again. So what's new?! can't blame them actually, or can't just asked them to revise my written name on the plastic cup for it will just make the name writing worst. So what to do next?! take a snap for me to share! Just like now, yep yep... I actually can't remember when was the last time I had ordered and they got my name correctly spelled. Why do people often thinks that my name is written with a C when in fact Hollywood stars that has name like mine are spelled with a capital K. Weird thought I know, but I'm just wondering. Maybe I should give a tip for the barista who'll write my name correctly without anyone telling them the right start for it, in the future... let's see. That would be cool and that would be worth blogging about! Just like my hunt for the best diet pills on the face of the earth today huh!

kfc italia roma

Yesterday, after my daughter and I attended novena and afternoon mass we head straight to the nearest KFC branch, actually the daughter just love to play in their play place while I order a snack food like fries from then when I saw their ad of Italia Roma....

kfc italia roma

I salivate immediately and ordered at an instant! And I was not misled by the yummy ad photo they had on the counter, it was really surprisingly delish! crispy chicken fillet which by the way is huge with different kind of sauce, italian taste it is actually - the blend of sour cream, mustard and a hint of sweetness all in one, perfect for a huge serving of rice! ( that I got to finish, argh) And ye, it has three strips of fried eggplant that really compliments the whole dish. I just simply love it! Thus making me look for diet supplements to help me burn all the calories I took from the feast yesterday! But am I coming back for that chicken bowl!? definitely soon!

food and friends bonding

Will be out for another dinner with friends sometime this coming week, though we still haven't decided where to go for a nice bonding over food, we'd probably go to our favorite town restaurant near the town proper. Which reminds me, we need to talk about effective steps on how to lose belly fat fast! For yes, we are all worried on that thing you know. Gotta do some real deal tummy exercise so to be able to strut the wonderful clothes that we shopped online! Anyways, speaking of food and friends, I wonder what day shall we plan for the meet up, a midweek date sounds great but not sure if everyone can commit to that day, maybe sometime before the weekend is a good one for most are free and worry-less during those time. Alright then, gotta plan now so they can make arrangements for the meet.

our lunch date @ Holy Cow

Thursday, was our lunch meet up with my online pals... it was scheduled actually for the handling of loots, instead of having it shipped via courier service, we all decided to just have a quick meet up so we can you know, bond and talk for hours - non stop. So what we had for lunch? aside from our mid morning starbucks fix, we head next to Holy Cow - for as we thought that the place were great, well according to one of our online pal who raved about this restaurant. So there, we went inside and thought that the place is not cold enough, but then we never mind, as we expect to have a good time eating... and then our dishes arrived... nothing fancy from the presentation, was kinda disappointing, but we still hope that looks don't deceive us... we took bites and voila! blunt. tasteless. dry. big disappointment. argh. so what we did? we just tried to make or eat the most out of it na lang, we talked about lot of stuff so we wouldn't get so irita with our food, we just had a good laugh about life, stuffs like shopping, plans for the future, business and even reselling of auto parts like Ferrari parts! - the last one is a joke you know.
Anyways, we finished around 3pm and call it a day, but Aggie and I decided to stroll around the mall and do a little shopping and a whole lot of window shopping! It was super fun time with the ladies :D

woohoo to shopping! - with codes! :D

Thank heavens for girl friends who lives in the US! for they make our shopping fantasies come true, by getting us stuffs that we cannot get locally - at very affordable prices, I mean, the cheapest in the market! Woohoo! Actually, it's not that very hard for shoppers - specially the online buyers to find ways on how to find great discounts online. Good thing, www.coupontrunk.com is there to help the shopaholics to get freebies, promos, huge slash on prices amongst many other perks. And I am one of the many who are so greatful for the said coupon codes. Just like my latest grab of Florsheim discount codes! that I'm planning to use when I'll buy formal shoes for the husband and baby doll flats for my daughter, gotta have enough leather shoes you know. And yes, will sure to use Walmart coupons for my future holiday shopping spree - most are for gifts for the little ones, thank heavens for super cute yet cheapo items on that well raved mall :D

me want GREEK!

Funny how I find myself often hungry for the past few days, weird I know, or maybe it's a rebound time for my previous weeks of my dieting. Or it can be because of the non stop rains and the coldness of the surroundings, making people crave for the yummos and yes, seeing my housemates eating every so often makes me munch and munch too! Specially at nights when I'm still working over time researching and reading about so many things like medical equipment and all, I just find myself sipping my hot cup of coffee and devouring a plate of left overs over the previous dinner! uh-oh.
Anyways, speaking of food, and the love for eating... here's what I'm currently craving... something from Cyma... yeah, greek food is what I want NOW.

candy buffet!

Dear daughter's daughter is just four months away, although we don't have any huge plans for a celebration, we might just give her another small house party. Although the husband is suggesting for a family trip like one of those fancy Gatlinburg vacations! But yes, financially? it's really not possible! so we just go back to the original plan of giving her a small party with her cousins and some kids in the neighborhood. And since it'll be just a simple celebration, I'm still thinking of having a theme, girly-pink-candy theme is one of what I might consider, you know, candy buffet and all, complete with photo ops and vast candies for the kids to enjoy! now that's exciting isn't?! Lovely framed photo below to add on my inspiration, whatever :D

wish for a netbook

I have been thinking of canvassing affordable netbooks to serve as gift to my dear husband. Oh-oh, I spilled the beans! but since I don't think that it's really possible with the given situation right now, probably, would ask the husband of his other wish list for Christmas and see if my savings capacity can cover whatever it is. But really, been eying this Acer netbook that is super sleek and fab, my man would definitely love the lightness and portability of this eye candy. Oh well, priced at $450 ... really cheap compare to the other type and brand of laptops, I only wish to have enough money to buy! lol

too excited!

Guess what, our cheap moving boxes or balikbayan as to what we are so used to say still hasn't arrive! Oh men, we are so excited already, I kept checking out the passing trucks outside to see if it is the courier company already parking in front of us. But as to what my friend who shipped the boxes it'll arrive a week ahead or it can be delay maximum of two weeks. Anyways, no worries as long as it will arrive! I just can't wait to rip it open and see my loots from my online shopping! And yes, my mom will surely use the box itself for storage purposes too!
