This is my daughter’s birthday cake – by her own request – a cookies and cream concoction, which I ordered from the Whole Foods Market. The cake itself was a plain half-sheet of super moist and yummy chocolate cake smothered with oreo-infused white frosting. However, in keeping with my daughter’s Dora-themed party, I stuck in [...]

Cookies and Cream Birthday Cake From Whole Foods
Pagwawagi (Triumph)

Green
Despite the fact that the weather is almost freezing where we are, like really important pet supplies, we still make room in our freezer for these: Popsicles! My daughter loves it, first and foremost, because Dora and Diego are on the box (score one for their marketing peeps!), and then I love it for her [...]

Stuffed at Royal China
and I couldn’t decide if I should post this under Lasang Pinoy Sundays or Weekend Snapshot. Indecisive that I am, I chose to just post this for both, haha! Anyway, for two consecutive Sundays now, my family, my friends, and I have trooped over to Royal China for dimsum. Check out the stuff that we [...]
This is why, She is my idol. Hermes. Birkin. Crocodile. In one of her earlier movies (at age 16 or 17 I think) she actually has scenes where she’s carrying Gucci purses! Well, well. And we all know that, at that time, designer handbags did not hold the same interest as it does now (or [...]
Kinagisnan (Heritage)
mula aparri hanggang jolo saan ka man ay halina kayo, isang libo’t isang tuwa buong bansa, eat bulaga! Who, among those with Filipino heritage, does not know this jingle by heart? Still running after twenty-nine years, Eat Bulaga (the longest running noon time show in the Philippines), is now indubitably an icon in Philippine television. [...]
Lindt Cherry and Chili
This is the latest craving/addiction/craze around my house. It all started when a friend insisted that I try a piece from the bar that she was delicately munching on. I’m neither a particular fan of dark chocolates, nor of cherries, nor of chilis. But it was still chocolate, and chocolates do not stand a chance [...]
J. Christopher’s
Eversince my friend Chloe took me here for brunch, my family and I have made this place a Saturday morning breakfast tradition. The restaurant itself is actually pretty straightforward, as is their food. Service is great (they have a lot of servers!) and the price is ok. And please, should you ever dare compare this [...]
Two-Tone
Two scoops of vanilla ice cream topped with brownies, oreos, and hot fudge. A most irresistible two-tone goodness from Dairy Queen. Just ask my four-year old ice cream sundae monster and she’ll eloquently tell you in no uncertain terms that it’s nyomnyomnyomingly good. ~~~ If you want to join this weekly whetting of appetites, please [...]
