Starbucks' Cheesecakes

Recently I became a frequent Starbucks patron coz I always crave for Green Tea Cream Frappuccino.  And what better way to accompany my green tea cream frappuccino than with a sweet treat?  Cheesecakes are perfect match with my fave drink.

Oreo Cheesecake

Though I can't twist, lick and dunk my oreo; Starbucks' Oreo Cheesecake gives me new way to enjoy my all-time favorite cookie.

Mango Yogurt Cheesecake

The yogurt in it is not overpowering the flavor of the cheesecake.  The mango, cheese and yogurt are in perfect harmony that leave a unique and satisfying taste.

Blueberry Cheesecake

I love blueberry cheesecakes!  But this time, Starbucks failed to give me satisfaction on their blueberry cheesecakes.  I hardly tasted the blueberry and it was too creamy for my gustatory cells.

Amazing Book Sculpture

I love arts!  Though I'm not that artistically talented, I very much appreciate arts (visual arts in particular).  I like going to art galleries and see the works of talented artist.

And for the first time in my entire life I've never seen such an amazing sculpture such as this.  I never thought that I could witness an awesome work.  A book sculpture! Imagine that!!

“Discarded Romance”

This art is made possible by Mike Stilkey.  It is now permanently displayed at Fully Booked in Bonifacia High Street, BGC, Taguig.

Mother's Day 2013

How did you celebrate this day?  It may be a simple day; but to a mom like me, the best way is to celebrate it with my kids.  Yet today it was not just about me having a good day, it was about sharing it also to my mom!

My mom rarely goes out from her abode, so today I made sure she had a good day with us.

Mamsi had a tour at Bonifacio High Street

 

Since Mamsi loves seafood, we ate lunch @Clawdaddy

We had our drinks at Jamba Juice

Our short stop @Eastwood City really made Mamsi's day!

We saw Anthony Taberna of ABS-CBN. (Mamsi is a fan  & me, too!)  Notice Mamsi's smile?

Then we had our dessert @J.CO.  The perks of having SC...big discounts!!! :-)

Game of Thrones: Rated R (or X)

 

We don’t have a cable, much more of HBO channel.  Most of the popular TV shows I watch is stream lining.  I got curious about Game of Thrones since I heard different reviews (positive and negative) about its TV Show.  It is based on novel series by George R. R. Martin.  I haven’t read the book, thus I have no idea what the TV show is all about.  All I know, it is an epic fantasy show produced by HBO.

 

After watching the first few episodes of season 1, Game of Thrones is rated R show!  Watch out for your kids (especially below 18), they might be curious to watch it too.  There is no episode in the show that has no sex scenes.  Mind you, there is real frontal nudity and more.  The show has good plot, but I don’t think it’s necessary to show those obscenities. 

 

VINCA: Homemade Antiseptic

Years ago I discovered that my kids have allergy on Betadine.  So I made my own antiseptic that would help heal insect bites, minor wounds, etc. of my kids.

VINCA solution:  Mix ½ cup of cane vinegar (Datu Puti) and 1tbs calamansi extract.  Apply it on insect bites, minor wounds, etc. as you apply rubbing alcohol.  

Apply 2x a day. It makes healing time faster. Refrigerate remaining solution for future use.
