Nature walk

Canopy of greens

I just thought this looks horror moviesh 

Had a very long nature walk recently--in slippers at that, at a familiar place. I've been here countless of times before so long ago, almost like my past life. Forgot how beautiful it was some years ago when it was initially stamped as a National Park by the Philippine government. Now, it still has that appeal and it even has some surprisingly new installations (events place, Emilio Aguinaldo monument etc) but it lacks proper maintenance, lighting and thanks to Ondoy, renovation. Not to mention decent comfort rooms. 

Now if only someone from the municipal government can take the time to own this as a pet project, you have one volunteer here.

Ever tried Lechon Pizza?

DONT. Consider your self warned.

'


To kick off the yuletide season, Pizza Hut came out with a new product--Lechon Pizza. SO after church, with room mate, kiddo and in-laws, we tried what is supposed to be the center of  every Filipino feast, in pizza form. Afterall, a lechon is a lechon, no matter what form, right. 

Boy were we wrong. 

This is what could be the saddest lechon we've ever eaten--save for the really crunchy skin. I mean, there were even lechon sauce on the pizza!! They could have neutralized it with the tomato sauce. We even tried putting so much hot sauce into it, maybe to make it work, but no, did not work either. Made us all wonder, who on earth thought of such a bad product?! Come on, they have the best Cheese pizza ever!

Of real good homecooked meals



Yesterday, at a client launch, I had one of the best roast turkey ever. Client prepared really good home cooked meals. My favorites are the salad, the turkey (of course), the mango ice cream and the lychee cloud!!!As one of my colleague said, if the client was my mom,  I would be obese.

On the job



Taken from one of my client's 1:1 TV interviews. As a consultant, we empower clients by equipping them how to answer the media, what to answer the media and most importantly, which media to answer to. 

Yes, yet another slice from a very varied life of little miss PR.

Faux Fur


Look what I got on S-A-L-E! Faux fur!!! Got a black one for myself and a gray one for my old (literally) friend who I felt will appreciate it. It felt so smooth and just like that, I fell in like :).

Now, a proper occasion to wear it please!

Pass the greens please...


Thank God for home "cooked" meals. I kinda miss this. Wink.   

Two months ago, I wanted to prove a point and  keep my officemate's teasing to a stop. I started watching what I eat and decided, I WILL LOSE WEIGHT.

I've got very few friends who thought I can do it. Mostly I was just mocked. So I stopped eating rice. I started eating greens. I started downing more than eight glasses of water a day. And I felt real sad and deprived the first two weeks.

Now, a few pounds lighter, I feel better. There are bloated days still, but thats not for over eating. Over drinking maybe. I think a bff said it best, its all about healthy food choices. After all, three years prior to getting married, I did lose weight with the same formula. And I did not look back.

Sophie's Day Out

Took us two whole weeks counting, waiting for this event. So when it was finally here, I hauled yaya and the kiddo and partied like any stage moms would. Too bad kiddo is still in her shy phase! 

Stage MOMS Unite!
