Scare Up Some Fun With Krispy Kreme Monster U Doughnuts!

Our family loves Krispy Kreme more than any other doughnuts. And our favorite branch? Greenhills! Malapit eh at may drive thru.. may kwento nga diyan.. one time we bought 2 dozens (one dozen assorted and one dozen original glazed) and we got free half dozen original glazed. You know how it is with KK, right? When the neon HOT Doughnuts Now is lit, it means the original glazed are rolling hot off the line.. and from time to time (not sure if this happens on a regular basis) they give away free doughnuts when the sign is lit.. and that’s how we got our free doughnut, they offered us to have a snack while waiting and asked how many we were in the car.. eh buong mag-anak kame nun no.. so that’s 6.. It was amusing how they gave away 6 doughnuts just like that hahaha

More than that, Krispy Kreme never fails to amuse me with their current offerings just like the Delectable Dessert.. and just recently, we received a box of their Monsters University doughnuts! Ayayay! It was so much fun opening the box. You know that feeling while watching Monsters Inc? That kind of awww cuteness? The doughnuts captured that! Here’s something from Krispy Kreme website:

The Mike, Sulley, Randy, Terry, Art, and Squishy mini doughnuts, dipped in an assortment of vanilla and chocolate icings, pineapple, orange and blueberry jelly beans, and sugar-coated candies, pack enough growl to further perk up your school days.
And to down these small creations, take gulps of the Monsters University round of Chillers—Randy Berry Cheescake, Mike Sour Kiwi, Sulley Sour Lychee, and Terry & Terri Orange Punch, which are lemonades and a punch with kicks of wild fruit.
These Monsters University Doughnuts and Chillers will only be available from June 17 to July 31, 2013, so what are you waiting for? Rush to the nearest Krispy Kreme store and make schooldays more thrilling as you set fire to your confectionary indulgence in the most thrilling way possible.

The doughnuts is, of course, in line with the new Monsters movie, Monsters University. The movie happened years before Boo, this movie is focused on the university life of our loved Monsters Inc characters Mike and Randy.

The kids loved the doughnuts, specially the princess. A box comes with 15 medium sized doughnuts for 399 PhP. And of course, they can’t wait to watch the movie!

Hawk Trolley Bag (6 wheel trolley) Review

uh, well, he said he really needs a bigger bag and seeing how he struggles putting all his books and other stuff inside his old bag, I just have to say yes. Mico got his new rubber shoes anyway(shopped at Zalora, different blog post) so, it is just fair to buy a new bag for Kuya.

I am quite impressed with Hawk 6 wheel trolley bag.. I must commend the sales representative at SM, they really know their products well and explained every details I need to know.. and convinced me that Hawk trolley 6 wheel bag is what my son needs. But no, we didn’t bought his bag from SM, Robinsons Galleria is friendlier for us, less people, smaller shopping area (with 4 kids, trust me, you wouldn’t survive an hour or two at Megamall LOL?

The 6 wheel trolley bag is different from your usual bag, well, because it has 6 wheels (oh there you go captain obvious haha).. so what advantage does 6 wheel trolley bag has over the more popular 2 wheeled trolley bag? This:

The trolley bag with 6 wheels can be pushed or pulled sideways too, making the bag easier to maneuver compared to a 2 wheeled trolley bag. This Hawk 6 wheel trolley bag is worth PhP3,799, not bad, considering Hawk is a trusted name when it comes to bag.

The bag is big enough to accommodate 20 books. It’s spacious and my son said it is easier to arrange his school stuff.

Aside from the size, the bag includes a cover bag, specially useful during rainy days:

The bag comes with 2 detachable side pockets (perfect for snacks and water bottle), it also comes with a free bottle water.

Given the price tag, I’m expecting that this bag will last until he graduates from Elementary.

P.S.

In a thank you letter he wrote (school activity) he mentioned the bag not just once.. it only shows how much he appreciates the bag.. good decision on buying this one.

New Routine, Exciting Days Ahead!

Ang title sana ng post na ito ay Back to regular programming.. but after a few days, I realized, the title is not apt for what is happening to us, particularly to me and to my routine.

This school year is different from last year.. I have three school boys this school year but I am less haggard.. it feels like, everything’s in proper places.. parang swak na swak lahat.. My routine is quite hectic, umm more hectic than it was last year, but I am surviving it and loving it. I’d wake up at 5 (but working on 4 so I can blog at least an hour), prepare breakfast (hopefully I can squeeze in my Metafit routine.. it’s a work in progress too haha)take bath (make up time!) wake the kids up, give them a bath.. let them eat their breakfast while I enjoy my “me” time aka coffee time.. after breakfast brush teeth then off to school. After dropping them to their respective classrooms, I’ll go home, work then cook lunch. Wake Sati up then off to fetch Sanko and bring the older boys lunch meal.

We usually go to school an hour before Sangko’s dismissal (mahirap na, baka mapaaga ang uwi, magwawala un pag hindi kame nakita) and to make use of the time, I teach Sati while waiting for Sanko (sorta homeschooling but happens on the school hehe)

Before lunch, a few minutes is spent checking on Sangko’s school books and doing his homework. Lunch time is about me, Sati, Sangko with Sir Chief and Maya.. after lunch, nap time..after nap time, tutor time with the older boys.. then work, the cook dinner.. then sleep.. parang robot lang no? but really, I love it! Mahilig talaga ako sa routine and it’s hard pag mejo nalilihis ako sa routine ko.. so far, so good.. sana ma maintain namin haha

Speaking of “me” time and make up time.. last year talaga, I make it a point na I’m in full battle gear before the sun says hi.. pero pagdating ng summer, tinamad na ako mag make up.. I said to myself, this school year, I should be back to full battle gear.. and one afternoon a surprise and a very nice motivation was delivered at my doorsteps:

Ang bongga di ba! British Invasion!

Collection Cosmetics, one of the hippest and most loved make up brands in the UK, is now here in the Philippines! Get ready to create a make up look that will make you say, “This is me and I love it”.

The box I got includes blush, mascara, lipstick (and lip gloss), eye liner, foundation and a BB cream.. I’d be super biased ha.. pero to date, this is the most exciting loot I received from being a blogger! Yay, thanks so much Collection Cosmetics, ready na ulit sa full battle gear days! (watch out for the reviews on my cosmetics blog: My Painted Lips)
