Christmas 2010 ROCKS!

There are so many reasons why Christmas 2010 rocks.

My sister who flew last November in Singapore to look for a better life came back with a good news and we were able to spend Christmas day with her and her son. The kids are all happy being together again. Ad we got to spend some time chatting, talking about life, natural colon cleansers, people who are important to us and people who made our life meaningful.

Spending Christmas with my family is a tradition to us. New Year is for my husband’s side. For this year, we decided not to cook (save for the macaroni soup and ham and tenderloin steak). I mean, we did not stressed ourselves cooking more dishes that we can actually eat and it is super fun! As my sister put it: “eating is best when you’re not tired from preparing it.” Agree much?

Other than spending it with my family, again, a truth was slapped right into our face. It was fun nonetheless, it just affirmed our love for each other.

And oh, a big decision was made during this time!

Proud Mama Store Products

I first heard about Funyky Feet last 2008. Bored to death and was browsing Multiply.. (eh I already have a facebook account then kaso di pa naman uso nun bwahaha), saw the not quite shoes ensemble and I fell in love. Chico will look good on it. It was my first ever online purchase. Back then, we were almost everywhere, going places..malls, parks and Funky Feet has been very supportive. Chico’s feet was too delicate for shoes and an ordinary socks doesn’t feel good, hence his every outfit comes with Funky Feet socks.

I bought it from Proud Mama (from their Multiply store) and since the day I bought Funky Feet Not Quite Shoes, the store has a long way. Now Funky Feet is available in over 10 stores around the Metro. Visit this page for the complete list of stores where you can buy Funky Feet.

Aside from Funky Feet, Proud Mama also offers a lot of products that are both fashionable and useful (for moms and for the kids, I guess some even for daddies). Here are some of the products that you can buy at Proud Mama Store:

Proud Mama reversible nursing covers, made from select fabrics in stylish, sexy prints – after all, this is an accessory for Mom to wear not baby – each with a matching plain color on the reverse side.
Tee Hee Shirts, child play clothes made to encourage kid’s imagination.
Kiddies Shoes Bag. A bright and colorful bags that can accommodate your kid’s shoes (it fits 3 Sati’s shoes).
Bra Extender, we know we always need a little more space..don’t you agree?

Chocolate Mango Mousse by Red Ribbon

Our Noche Buena menu is almost complete.. dishes, ham, queso de bola, ice cream.. but cake. So when I heard that Red Ribbon createdChocolate Mango Mousse( a limited edition premium cake), I just have to try one and see for myself if it is worth the space on our table (and on our tummy) this coming Christmas.

Red Ribbon combines two of the most loved dessert ingredients to create one delightful cake. It is made with a layer of creamy mango mouse with juicy mango bits on top of silky chocolate mousse and moist chocolate pound cake and generously embraced with chocolate ganache. As a finale, mango scoops and shaved chocolate are placed on top to makeChocolate Mango Mousseboth delicious and beautiful.

Chocolate Mango Mousse is available for only P700.00 for a whole cake and P70.00 for a slice. I bought a whole for the whole family and for some friends who are came last Saturday. I find the cake so smooth and so addicting. It is not too sweet, just the right amount of sweetness coming from the chocolate and mango.
