Sapphire Mommy's Bacon and Egg Sandwich

 Dahil nagfi-feeling food blogger ako ngayon,here's an easy tummy filler with a 2-3 minutes prep time especially made by me for my two boys one lazy weekend morning:

 

A Decade of Love ♥

To my one and only ex-bf,my past,present and future love, my yen, my hubby dear,daddy,my forever valentine (yes naman,todo na to!)

Happy 10th year of being US, even if we are already married it is still nice to celebrate the day we became officially a couple, i bet you still remember what happened that day. Funny how time flies, we were still young then, t’was not really a love at first sight for me, but in your case it is! :D There are many happy moments to look back and I still can go on and on, all I can say is, the past 10 years of my life spend with you is all worth it. Although still as normal couple we’ve been through a lot of challenges in our relationship and yet we never gave up.  Thank you for loving me and Xian more each day,for striving hard for our future (I'm super proud of you) for never failing  to put a smile on my face, for the simple and laid back yet happy life we are having.for the spontaneous and sweet things. indeed am not only lucky to be your wife, I am blessed.

Let's all get mushy and cheesy this Valentine's Day.Happy Heart's Day everyone! :)

Sunday is Inihaw Day! :)

Last Sunday after attending the mass,we're too lazy to go out.we just enjoy that day in the comfort of our home – casual and laid-back.

That's my busy hubby doing all the ihaw stuff, I had my share din naman beforehand by doing all the cleaning and preparations.

One time he caught me taking picture of him. Before he utter a word I quickly said "promise isa lang,ibo-blog ko lang! :D

After less than an hour,we have this for lunch courtesy of my cooking master boy - my hubby Allan! that's the best photo I have so please bear with me ha,I'm not a food blogger and I'm not using a DSLR so I wasn't able to give justice to the food :) 

 inihaw na liempo

inihaw na tahong

inihaw na isda (wrapped in foil)

we capped off our lunch with this dessert, yummy sans rival cake.

Super full Sunday! Sometimes it's ok to be laid-back every once in a while :)

Sapphire Mommy 101

I guess it's time for me to share some weird facts about myself, getting to know Sapphire Mommy a little more.Let's start the ball rolling! :D

*I AM AMBIDEXTROUS (able to use either the left or right hand to perform a task and write). Among my sibs, ako lang ang kaliwete in terms of writing. echa pwera talaga eh.wayback in my younger years I just don’t like the discrimination when all my classmates are using right-handed chairs tapos yung saken kakaiba kase made for kaliwete talaga.jeez! sa desk naman during our elementary days,may instance pa na nagagalit seatmate ko kase sakop ng elbow ko yung space nya ng sulatan.kaloka! But although I use my left hand in writing, I do other stuffs naman with my right hand.Up to now I'm still curious bakit ganun.weird ba ko? :)

Pero take note naman,some of the lefties celebrities include: Kristine Hermosa,JC Tiuseco, Megan Fox, Angelina Jolie, Nicole Kidman, Ashley Tisdale, Tom Cruise, Matt Dillon, Robert De Niro, Bruce Willis, Oprah Winfrey and the one and only, President Obama are all left-handed.and the list goes on. Oha! So hinanay ko talaga sarili ko sa kanila no,walang basagan ng trip! :D

Trivia:The left-handers’ primary distinction from right-handers is that they use more of their right cerebral hemisphere, responsible for image, visual space and sensory perception and intuition, in their everyday life. That’s why a lot of artists, composers, musicians and poets are left-handed.

*I AM AN OLD SCHOOL CHIC. I love compiling memorable sweet notes, love letters, cards, candy wrappers, old receipts and tickets, dried flowers, assorted abubot and just about anything that is memorable to me especially during our bf-gf days ni hubby, I love making scrapbooks way back because I really want to document just about anything.In short,sentimental!

*LOCO OVER CHOCO.Chocolate is my ultimate comfort food. mapa-cake, ice cream or candy or any dessert as long as chocolate flavor, happy na ko nun! Pero take note, I don't like the taste of chocolate drink.weird much?

*LOVE LOVE WATERMELON. I can eat 1 whole watermelon in a span of 1 hour,my ultimate craving when I was pregnant with Xian! No wonder the little man love it too! :D

*I REALLY WANTED TO BE A TEACHER. During my younger years, people asked me "What do I want to be when I grow up?" and that's always my response - to be a teacher. But I had a sudden change of heart when I enter college. I took up BS Biology. anlayo! 

More weird facts next time! :)

Brush Brush Moment

It's a good thing that at Xian's early age few months ago, we didn't have a hard time (well partly) explaining him the importance of brushing his teeth unlike most toddlers of his age.

During the time after his first few teeth erupted,we're just using a piece of clean wash cloth. We started with the real brush when he was 1 year and 5 months old and this is his first ever toothbrush and toothpaste! 

 Oral B Stage 2 Toothbrush and SansFluo toothpaste

 I remember I had to memorize the Colgate jingle just to make toothbrushing at night sound fun fun fun for him.We even have our family toothbrush moment. we let him brush our teeth while we brush his teeth.he found it too funny.uto-uto naman kami ni daddy nya! Although lately  I had to "force" him to open his mouth na (useless na ang Colgate jingle!) to thoroughly brush his teeth because sometimes if he's not in the mood,he just let the toothbrush slide lazily on his teeth then indulge in his toothpaste like candy! (good thing his toothpaste has no fluoride and it's safe to swallow so its ok) Then afterwards he'll say "Finished brush brush".. As if he just do it for us to see that he still brush his teeth nga naman.But it's not enough.

Photos of him in his lame brush brush moment:

Then I heard about Firefly Toothbrush. I learned about this from Ms. Daphne's blog.She bought it for her kids and they love using it. It look like this. cute no? 

I'll visit Watson to see how cute the product is and get one for Xian.He will surely love this.I hope he'll enjoy his brush brush moment again :)
