The Legend Villas: Home Sweet Legend

The mommy bloggers Christmas Party wouldn’t be as much fun if not for the generous heart of the people from The Legend Villas.

The Legend Villas is a 100% Filipino owned hotel in the heart of the Metro. What made it distinct and different from other hotels is the homey atmosphere it offers. This is a place where a family can have a weekend of pure relaxation and fun.

If you have a Balikbayan family looking for a place to stay, I highly recommend The Legend Villas Hotel. Check out their rates and other amenities on their website: www.legendvillas.com.ph

The Art Of Drinking Frappe

I was reading my friend’s blog and I can’t he;p but smile with her entry about Frappe.

The world of drinking frappe according to CyjCatherine:

At the start, there’s the happy anticipation. Then you take a good lick on what’s on top: the whipped cream, the choco syrup, a bit of the bittersweet coffee. And it feels so good, right? It’s as if everything feels like heaven. And nothing else seems to matter but the sweet taste of your frapp.

In my case, it is the opposite. For one, I never liked stirring my frappe. I want it as it is (yes even my coke float). And then I sipped it slowly, enjoying the bittersweet coffee. And it feels good yes. And then I wait, up until I can have a lick on the whipped cream and then on the choco syrup and that is heaven. Always saving the best for last.

I guess that is how I always function, always saving the best for last. Taking everything I can as long as I can endure and enjoying the fruit of my hard ships in the end.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year guys!

As part of celebrating the new year, here is a Thank you post for the year that just passed. Of course I am thankful for my family and for the fact that 2010 has been very great in terms of health. We did not encountered any major health problem, save for the one I got last July. Although the 3nd quarter of the year has not been very very good, we survived it and as September came, all things fell into its proper place.

We celebrated the first birthday of our little girl and it was a blast. And all of the money we spent for her birthday came from my online earnings and was even save some to use for entertainment such as Online Casino playing or Facebook games/ applications playing. Other than that, I met and become friends with other mommy bloggers because of her birthday. That is such a blessing.

I had a taste of my first graduation day as a mother last 2010. And did I mentioned that my son made it to top 5? I am one proud mommy. My other pre school finished his nursery with ease although without honors, I am so happy for him because he improved a lot. My third son can speak clearer now and also gained more weight last 2010 and you know for moms, that is one of the most important.

Relationship wise, husband and I never had a big argument this year (except some tantrums which is usually work related stress). And we enjoyed some time alone, watching movies and dinning out (thanks to my mom who always make it a point to visit us).

2010 has been very very good to us and I just knew 2011 will be better, way better.
