The design process was really simple, I want something that is personalized to Sati, useful and at the same unique to other eco bags there is in the market or in the giveaways departments. The front of the bag was her name on it. That was the hardest part (and the most expensive part) of the bag. The back part, I put a pocket, that separates her from the usual eco bag. A pocket intended for receipts. As a regular user of reusable bags, I noticed that most reusable bags has no pocket on it. So I made one that has one. And to make the pocket more useful, that’s where I put the Thank You note for coming to her party. My sister asked my why I put November 2010 instead of the date of the celebration. The answer is simple, her real birthday is Noveber 8 and we celebrated it on November 6. I wouldn’t want to put the wrong day of her birthday.

Gingersnaps Warehouse Sale 2010
November 12, Friday. A fellow mommy blogger told us about Gingersnaps Warehouse Sale 2010 that will open on the said date. And from the map provided in most blog post about the sale, I discovered that Gingersnaps Warehouse is just a tricycle away from my place. OK, not that near, I still have to walk and rode a tricycle, the thing is, I can go there anytime I want. So last Friday, thinking that less people would be there, I went to the warehouse. Sadly, most of the products at Gingersnap’s Warehouse Sale 2010 last Friday were not that nice. I was there around 1 PM and the line to the cashier is already long. We look around for about 30 minutes and found nothing. Went home empty handed. Coincidentally, Michelle was there too (mom friday), around that time too. Makes me think that Michelle and I are soul sisters (what do you think Michelle?). Anyways, for those of you who has been driving around Pasig looking for the Gingersnaps Warehouse and been looking the net for Gingersnaps Warehouse map, I made one specially for Joy.. not for you, but yeah you can use it.
You can also take c5, turn right on Eagle drive, right on Dr Sixto Antonio Ave, straight ahead, then turn on the first road on the left, go straight until you reached C Raymundo (which is about 300-500 meters, not sure). Turn left to C Raymundo and just some meters away is F Legazpi turn.
next post.. tips on how to score great finds on warehouse sales.
Gingersnaps Warehouse Sale 2010, Warehouse 19, Armal Compound 2, M. Eusebio Ave., San Miguel, Pasig City
edit: if going there through public transportation, ride a public utilized vehicle going to Pasig Palengke (there’s a lot in Shaw central terminal, near Unilab) and from there ride a tricycle and tell them to drop you off at Armal Compound in Esubio Avenue or Pasig Hospital, he fare is about 50 PhP, I think.
Destination: Who Decides?
On March 8, we will be celebrating our wedding anniversary, and though we don’t romanticize that much, this is a good reason for a weekend get away.. So here are the finalist for our destination this weekend: Tagaytay, breakfast at Bag of Beans.. but there is no place where the kids can enjoy as much as they want to. They want to go biking. Biking range in Tagaytay is no good, dusty and almost all bikes are in not so good condition, plus the rates are killers. Los Banos, hmm why not, but what can we do there? run wild and free on the fields (is it allowed?) sneak in taking a shot of the UPLB sign. Climb the carabao monuments? Ty to climb the Carilion tower? naah.. not much for the kids.. but of course running wild and free is a good idea. Or maybe revisit apartments we lived and show them that all along we have been propagating, that is why we are missing that much.. LOL Enchanted Kingdom. Nice place, and heard can be fun too for the kids.. BUT! I don’t think three kids in tow is manageable..and not to mention pricey. La Mesa Ecopark. There’s a lot things to do here, but we have been there twice already.. some other time maybe. CamSur. Why not baby.. but 8 hours on the road.. hmm.. let me think again. Baguio. Yes all the way..LOL.. and the kids are conspiring so we can go to Baguio.. Kayil is telling me that every time I will ask him a question, his answer will be Baguio..let’s try: pehpot: are you hungry? Kayil: yes, I want to eat in Baguio.. pehpot: are you sleepy? Kayil: yes I want to sleep in Baguio.. on and on.. Daddy PLEASE..PLEASE.. bring our kids to Baguio.. they are painting my whole body with their saliva and tickling me to death…
