Another Kulilit Story Part 3

*While browsing a magazine with Phil Younghusband and Angel Locsin’s pic, Xian grabbed the magazine, point to PY and said “eto mommy, mmmmm…. Langhap Pinoy!”  

(imitating the exact tone of PY’s soy sauce commercial.lol)

==========================================================

*Xian asked me to draw a car in his sketch pad, after a couple of seconds, I showed to him the car I draw, he stared at it so I asked him “you like it? ganda ga?” to which he promptly replied “no mommy, angeeeeet!” (wow anak, thank you ha,ang honest mo naman!)

=========================================================

*So Xian asked his daddy instead to draw for him. On the contrary, he’s really excited til it’s finished. When they’re done, Xian came to me and said “eto mommy,eto danda!”

 

Obviously he’s very satisfied with the outcome, here’s my two boys proudly and happily showing their artwork.

 ay sows, di naman kagandahan drawing ni daddy eh *ampalaya mode*

==========================================================

During one of our laid-back afternoon conversation:

Me: Baby testing nga natin halimbawa tinanong ka ni teacher mo pag nag-schooling ka na.okay pag sinabi nya “What's your mommy's name?”

Xian: Mommy Jam! (he still can’t pronounce Joan the right way.hehe)

Me: Very Good! How about your daddy's name?

Xian: Daddy Allan!

Me: Wow,very good ulit.How about you,what's your name?

Xian: Baby Xian... tsaka Allen.

Me: Galing ah! Where do you live?

*The little man is clueless for a few seconds*

Me: Taga san ka baby?

Xian: Tulay!

Me: How old are you?

Xian: eeeehhhh mommy,mana (tama na).pagod Baby Xian! (sabay hingal!)

Para-paraan nga naman.Okaaaay!

 

Graciano's Pizza and Pasta

LIke what I mentioned here as part of my weekend last time,we tried this new Pizza and Pasta Place near the school one Saturday after our work since we're getting good reviews from people who already ate there.The name is Graciano's Pizza and Pasta located a few meters away from our work place.

Its just a small store but the interior is quite refreshing to the eyes without too much loud colors, perfect for casual chit chat with friends over food plus we're the only diner that time so we sort of "rented" the place.

These are the food that we ordered that time:

nachos

fries with dip

8'' Ham & Cheese Pizza

Chicken & Spaghetti Meal (Dan, Karen and I chose this meal)

1 piece chicken with rice (Ate Tin's plate)

 Tara,Let's eat! :)

We paid around P600 for our group meal.affordable indeed! We all went home full and happy, if there's one thing lang that we don't like about the place,ang hina ng aircon! Hopefully they could do something about it. Pero all in all, ok naman.we'll definitely go back.

Fab Find

Being inspired by Mommy Fleur's cute Divisoria Find, I wanna post my own cheap thrill last week (uhmmm,hindi nga lang sa Divisoria ha!) while patiently waiting for my sister and her friend on our Coffee Fridate. To kill time while waiting for the girls, I decided to stroll around the commercial building near Starbucks that sell goods from Bangkok with a slim chance of buying anything yet I end up with this:

I was smitten by this cute safari print pump shoes with matching trinket which is perfect in my office attire and also in jeans.Fab find talaga!

The price?  it cost lower than P500 but higher than P250.you do the math a la Price is Right.haha!

 

Lovin' Weekend

My schedule last week was kinda hectic because of some school activities that's why just thinking about weekend makes me want to jump with joy.Here's the photos of how I spend my precious weekend with family and friends.

*Last Friday after work, I met with my sister Sol and her soul sister Gracie (which makes Gracie girl my adopted sister) to bond over our favorite frappe at Starbucks.

meet my younger sister Sol! I'm 2 years older than her and we really have a lot of happy moments remembering our childhood days.She's more of a twin sister to me rather than a younger one :)

After a few hours of laughing (mostly on my part; these two girls really had a lot of funny stories and they're the "bangka" of the night) and talking about lots of different things,we headed home happy and reenergize! Yebah!

**Then Saturday after halfday of work, me and my office friends tried the new pizza and pasta place near our school which offers good food at a very affordable price(It's not actually that new, di lang siguro namin talaga na-try kagad :D) 

Anyway, the food are yummy plus also pocket friendly, probably because their target customers are the student population.This became one of my favorite place to eat with friends when I'm at work. I'll separately blog it soon. Here's a picture of me with friends last Saturday.

 while waiting for our food.

***Finally come Sunday, just another Family Day Out with my two boys. After  hearing the mass, we went to the mall for another dose of Xian's playtime. He's a Quantum baby. He love to try all the rides but this one is his particular favorite,when I say favorite, wala kaming punta dun na di nya yan sinakyan:

di ko nga mawari kung ibon ba yung kasakay nya or monkey.anong creature ito,whatcha think?

another favorite - red car.

My mag-ama's carousel ride! see the little man's happy face :)

before we bought the ticket,the little man specified that he want to ride the tei-ger (tiger) and not the horse.

After Xian's play time, we had our lunch at Bigg's Diner (which I'll separately blog too as soon as I'm not that busy,hihi!) 

while waiting for our food, here's what makes my two boys busy.

sweet mag-ama moment captured on cam.

After we filled our tummy, we're supposedly going to watch Harry Potter but on the last minute the little man backed out so we had no choice but leave the SM cinema which starting to be a little crowded that time because of other moviegoers. 

 ayun naman pala eh, mas feel nya ang na i-watch ang Cars instead of HP. sige baby,next time pag showing na!

We just stroll around and buy new loots for the little man before heading home.

There you go, that's how I spend my weekend. nothing beats quality time with love ones noh?

Bake and Churn's Chocolate Ganache Ice Cream Cake

Bake and Churn is known for their yummy and affordable ice cream cakes which proves that good food (or should i say good dessert) doesn’t always have to be expensive. Their slice of cake ranges from P40-P58/slice if you want to taste a piece of this yummy dessert.In one of our quick trip to the grocery, we settled for their Chocolate Ganache Ice Cream Cake in cup which cost around P45.This little piece of goodness is perfect to satisfy a sweet tooth when it is needed most.The top is layered with very rich chocolate ice cream and some chocolate chips to boot. The bottom part is a layer this time of moist chocolate cake.cake and ice cream in one,winner devah! ;)

hubby steady lang,wag kang gagalaw :D

Bake and Churn offers a wide-ranged of choices of ice cream cakes perfect for every occasion. You can opt to buy a slice,in chilly cups or a whole ice cream cake.Other flavors to die for includes:

  

Yumminess di ba?

 

Selecta Hershey's Ice Cream

Summer's over but my craving for ice cream is still the same. Having a sweet tooth, I love chocolate bars and I also love ice cream. who doesn't? good thing two of my fave comes in one combo! Thanks to Selecta Hershey's Ice Cream Collection which has four different flavors. I always prefer to buy the 800 ml pint size which made the husband comment "my,fan ka pala ni Carmina" (remember the ice cream commercial where the husband and wife tandem have their ice cream moment in pint?) :D

I love the Hershey's Kisses ice cream,enough that you need not to eat a pintful to feel sated.  It looks like cookies and cream because of the white and brown choco mixed and divided into two inside the container added with Hershey’s choco tidbit pieces,only with a different taste.

my favorite flavor :D

While my two boys love the Hershey's Milk Chocolate with Almonds which is loaded with chocolate chips and chocolate swirls sprinkled generously with almond compare to the plain Hershey's Milk Chocolate ice cream.It looks like a melted giant bar.

in their baby-daddy moment *awwww sweet..inggit*

I haven't tried the the Selecta Hershey's Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups ice cream probably because my taste buds doesn't crave for it because I don't like choco-peanut butter bars in the first place.hehe!

 

Yummy Treats from Goldilocks

Last weekend, hubby bought some goldilicious treats from Goldilocks as his pasalubong. Hubby knew that I’m a sucker for sweets,anything sweet for dessert eh masaya na ko,pero wag lang naman purong asukal. He bought Brazo de Mercedes roll, Caramel Popcorn and Coffee Crumble Polvoron. I love Brazo, it always reminds me of my happy childhood memories.

 meringue rolls with golden yellow custard filling.ooops, I already got my share :)

popcorn coated with rich, creamy caramel.tamang pang-tanggal "umay".

I’m not really a fan of Polvoron but this Coffee Crumble Flavor is an instant fave for me. It’s not too sweet, just the right amount of sweetness with distinctive taste and aroma of coffee and enhanced with crunchy praline,perfect to satisfy my taste buds :-) 

sweet and creamy polvoron

My sweet tooth always finds it's way to you.You're the one, Goldilocks!

How bout you,what's your favorite treat from Goldilocks? :)
