Back and Blogging Again

And after two months, I’m back blogging! I can’t say my readers missed this! First of all do I have a list of readers? Haha! Why did I stop for a while? As much as I want to write, my time (or our time, mine and my husband’s) was eaten by all these stuff we need to do for our house. The busiest days of our lives so far, even busier than preparing for our wedding, we were doing house chores here and there, shop for appliances, kitchen stuffs, furniture and so far, our biggest splurge, window grilles and gate. We needed to finish everything within days as we wanted to transfer before our birthday and we did it! Imagine, every weekend, we spend in the supermarket, department store and, can you just imagine, HARDWARE! I have already memorized prices of cement, sand and gravel. Even learned to be smarter, stainless steel is way too expensive, do not be blinded by the cheap ones! They aren’t stainless, they are chrome coated! I’ve learned to canvass, and look for the cheap ones. If you think buying a house and lot ends with just that, it’s not! There’s a lot that you need to improve and a lot of time and effort is needed.

My husband and I are lucky to have parents who are there to help us with this journey. This wouldn’t be possible for working couples starting our own if they’re not there. Lester and I really appreciate their help, learned a lot and slowly settling down. But more thankfully, this house is a blessing from God. Few weeks back, we had our house blessing and we were able to welcome a number of relatives and friends in our house. The house isn’t fully complete, but it’s decent enough to invite people in.

Today, another blessing is about to start. We’re finishing our garage and dirty kitchen (our little Honda will be very happy!) Sharing how this little space made it thru its journey to be a home :)


PS. I’m trying to gain my blog inspirations back. I still have a backlog to share. I’ll try my best to post as much as I can. Happy reading! What a good Monday to start :)

It's a Girl!

Finally after 30 weeks, Lester and I are happy to announce that we are having a baby GIRL! It took that long because we’re the kind of couple who’s obedient to the OB- have ultrasound when needed. Last time we checked, the OB did not confirm Little Javier’s gender though she told us that this little one is most likely a baby girl. Lester was still positive to have a baby boy- he still has 40-30% chance. But hey, it doesn’t matter- after all, we can still make another one :).  It must be the genes- my mom gave birth to 5 children- 4 of us are girls and our youngest is a boy (can you just imagine how Little C feels when he’s at home?). Lester was already dreaming of playing with his little one, teaching how to play PS, bike and all those boy stuff while I was already imagining cooking, baking and doing girly stuff with our little Javier- and I won! I remember when I was still on my first and second trimester, I was so into little things for girls that when I go to the mall’...

How I Made It Thru My Laziness

I woke up one morning and thought, I want to shop! But I was too lazy to get up and dress myself to pass by malls before I go to work. And then, I remembered my good friend Zalora. I wasn't really a fan of buying things online (especially huge amounts) because I feel my credit card might get screwed and might end me owing something I did not purchase. Aside from that, I was also not really very confident that I might not get the right size or it's not the one I bought, or simply, I don't like it at all, pala! Until I knew of someone who has tried this online purchasing and so I tried it.  This is already my second time to buy in Zalora. Remember, after being curious of buying online., this time Zalora helped my PMS-ing issues. :)  Zalora has thousands of goods anything from clothes to shoes to accessories, branded or from the marketplace, for men and of course, for the ladies. My favorites come from Spring Fling and Something Borrowed. Affordable, classy and...

Cooking Fever: Gising-Gising

I cooked this once for my husband to satisfy his spicy taste. I first tried this in Recipes and found it yummy. :) Ingredients: Garlic, chopped Onions (Red), chopped Baguio beans, chopped into pieces Ground Pork Red Chili Pepper, chopped Green Chili Peppers (Siling haba) Coconut milk Salt, pepper and soy sauce to taste 1. Saute onions and garlic. Add the ground pork. 2. Add a little bit of soy sauce to taste.     3. Once the pork is cooked, add Coconut Milk. For this recipe, I used the instant ones (just add water!) but I think it'll taste better if you use those you can buy from the market.  4. Add Baguio beans (not string beans!) and all the chilis - depending on your taste. I used less red ones but separated my share because I'm not really into spicy food (except sisig!) 5. Put salt and pepper to taste 6. Serve This is my first blog to write about recipes so please pardon my instructions. I really do not know...
