September 6th, 2008 Not Another Subic Post!?!

Yep..its another Subic post. It may seem obvious by now that Subic is a favorite vacation destination for my family. And because it is a favorite, we spent the last two long weekends there.
.
Actually, we only planned to spend the first long weekend in Subic. I made my booking at Subic Bay Venezia Hotel because it was one of the newer hotels and we wanted to try it out. When I called back to confirm our reservation the agent I was speaking with offered me a Membership card for a very reasonable price. One of the perks was a 2-night stay in a Superior Room for free which was the cost of the card itself. So if you do the math, I already got my money’s worth with that privilege alone.  With all the other perks that went with the card it sounded like a great deal. So I said yes.

September 2nd, 2008 Just Another Day At The Office

Have you ever had that feeling of not wanting to get out of bed to face the prospect of going to work? I believe many of us feel that way. Who wouldn’t want to stay comfortably tucked in bed in their pj’s with the remote control in their hands? Well, not me.

Two or three times a week my day starts with an hour communing with mother nature. Instead of dressing up in a snazzy business suit I put on my sweats and lace up my sneakers and walk around the park.

September 1st, 2008 The Filipino Mom Blog

When the Eating Club was born early this year, I was only too happy to have finally met several friends who shared some of my interests. More than that, each of us also had our own unique interests which made for even more interesting meet-ups. Other than eat, we would talk..and talk…and talk…and talk some more.

August 26th, 2008 Costumes From The Baul

When my kids’ preschool celebrated Linggo ng Wika they sent out letters requesting the children to come in Filipiniana costumes and to bring Filipino food. We were assigned to bring Sago’t Gulaman and Tsokolate Eh. The food wasn’t a problem. I had most of the ingredients in my pantry anyway.

August 23rd, 2008 Palawan Adventure Day 5 : Last Day in Paradise

We woke up really early on our last day in Palawan. Since we didn’t go out anymore the night before (it was raining very hard) we also slept very early which is why we were up at 5:30 a.m. Since the coffee shop wouldn’t open till 6:30 a.m. we just finished packing up. By the time breakfast was served we were all packed and ready to go.
