Wifely Steps

A tip for those who are planning their weddings.
We didn’t have a guestbook during our wedding. Instead, my sisters placed pens and notecards on each of the guests’ tables during the reception. Each notecard is the size of a calling card with different borders for a fun feel. Our host (my best friend) encouraged the [...]

I found some free time on my hands yesterday so I decided to clean my cupboard. I couldn’t believe how many goods have expired! Tsk tsk tsk. I haven’t been cooking in the past 3 weeks so I decided to change that. These were some of the unexpired goodies waiting for me in the cupboard. [...]

3 Reasons Why I love This Cereal:

When my taste buds need a break from all that bran and oatmeal, this is the cereal I look for. Nestle Honey Stars. The stars are coated with honey so they are yummy!
I remember an old officemate and I would open a small box and pop stars in [...]

There’s a restaurant in Robinson’s Place that H and I tried for the first time. It caught our eyes because of the name and their cute mascot — Karate Kid! Since this Japanese fastfood already made us curious, we decided to try it out.

TGIF! What do you get when you add about one hundred home plans, a dozen sound effects and a game of Google? Sirit? That’s this week’s Friday Trio!

Fresh flowers. Cheetos. Hanging out with H. Eating with my family around the kitchen island. Reading a good book. [...]

Menu pic taken from a juice bar called Fruit Pops in Malate.
Goes right to the point doesn’t it? I like it! I felt the drinks were a bit too pricey though for something as simple as fresh fruit blends. I ordered the Detoxifier hoping to release whatever negativity I still had left in my body [...]

TGIF! To use a term I haven’t used since college, this was Hell Week for me! If this week didn’t come to an end, I wouldn’t be surprised if strategies and paperwork started pouring out of my ears and who knows where else. It has been a truly rough week that tested my patience with [...]

Because we don’t own a washing machine, we bring our laundry to the laundromat. Bringing our clothes to the cleaners is H’s task. He’s there so often that he’s developed a good relationship with the employees. The few times I’m there I enjoy the cold airconditioning combined with the scent of fabric conditioner. So cozy! [...]

I was lying down with arms behind my head, staring at the blue sky speckled with white clouds. The little girl played with a white flower and told me stories about school.
The gazebo was far from the playground and I could hear adults laughing and toasting their wine glasses. I’d much rather be on the [...]
