Had coffee with Ritchie at Beanstalk tonight. This is after taking time out with his bosses and officemates at a nearby resort. Was only there a few hours, didn't even get to swim, but it's fine. By the way, photo up there is a new offering at Beanstalk Cafe (Calamba), it's called "open-faced roasted chicken salad". Yes, I know the name doesn't sound delicious at all, pretty gross even. I can assure you though that it tastes good. It's roasted chicken drenched in gravy sauce, served on top of white bread and fresh lettuce and chips on the side. This is what I ate together with my Beanstalk staples: caramel macchiato, french fries and banana split. I haven't been there for quite a few weeks, months even, I guess, so it was great to have coffee there once again. For those who want to know, it's located at the rooftop (5th floor) of the new Calamba Executive Center, across the bus terminal at Crossing. The building lies on the Crossing-Halang road that leads to the famous resorts of Pansol, Laguna. Do visit if you're within the area. Shop hours/schedule: Beanstalk Cafe is open Mondays thru Saturdays from 4pm-12mn. Last order taken at 11pm. Check my other previous post about Beanstalk Cafe Calamba here .

While everyone is home eagerly anticipating the delayed telecast of the Pacquiao-Hatton fight (which Pacquiao won by TKO at round 2!), I'm here at Tagaytay Garden Hotel overlooking the beautiful Taal lake for my new godson's christening.
I wish my new godson Hael Nikolai the best of everything. May God pour upon him countless blessings.
To my fellow Filipinos, woo hoo! Great job, Manny!
Too many of us working mothers do not realize how invaluable a nanny's role in the family is. In most households, mine included (since there aren't too many chores to be done anyway), the nanny's responsibility is not limited to child care. My nanny and house help of two years does more than just that. Continue reading →
Just hours ago, I had an epiphany. Beautiful. Quiet. Fulfilling. Dreamy.
If I could bottle it up and show it to you, I would have done it, just to prove to you how wonderful it is. But there's no bottling abstract feelings of the heart or ecstasy of the soul. There's no describing it. It is beyond words. Even beyond images. It's something that can only be understood by another heart -- one that beats in time with yours, one that's so sensitive and in tune with the slightest of your emotions. Continue reading →
On usual mornings, we don't really get to exercise. I know, right. Bad. But on weekends, we sometimes find time to walk and jog a bit. This is one of those rare occasions. And just like any rare occasion, it has to be photographed. :)
That sexy little boy is my son. :) More photos here.
