2 Great Lunch Treats from Starbucks

Had this one day for lunch. Simple yet satisfying and very filling. For Php 95.00 its worth it, healty pa.

They also have this in focaccia bread which I prefer more than the bagel.

This pasta salad has roasted vegies ... mushrooms, carrots and zucchini.

Sulit na din at nakakabusog. Not to mention healthy pa, no mayo and nothing anything fatty except for the healthy fat dun sa pesto sauce (oil), hehe. Madami din yung pesto na kasama in a separate container kaya mareregulate mo gano kadami gusto mo mailagay.

Saw this in Crunchy Munchie's  blog kaya I tried some. No regrets naman. Masarap e :-)

Marianna's 2nd Birthday Party

Last Saturday, Oct 2, 2010, we celebrated Marianna's 2nd Birthday at Jollibee A. Mabini Branch.

Her original birthday was last tuesday, Sept 28 and Oct 2 is the closest saturday to her actual Birthdate kaya ito na yung date na pinili namin to schedule her Jollibee party. Medyo ninenerbyos na nga ko nung Friday kasi umuulan ulan. Maswerte at maganda ang panahon nung Sabado.

Good mood ang anak ko that day. Mabuti na lang talaga at naka nap sya bago kami pumunta kaya wala syang "s". Nakatulong din na malamig yung party area kaya di sya balisa. Sayaw sya ng sayaw pag dating palang at sinasalubong yung mga guest nya habang paparating. At nung nahawakan na yung mike, di na nya binitawan at kumanta kanta na.

Games for the kids and the adults.

Sa mga kids hanapan ng pares ng sapatos nila (may ganito palang game, hehe)

 and bring me
Sa mga adults naman, balloon relay. Group ni Mommy and Daddy. Syempre group ni Mommy nanalo.

Ang parusa ng group ni Daddy? I-Spell pangalan ni Marianna, sa pag kembot, hehe.

Syempre nandun si Peachy, Ykaie, Laarnie and Leighna to celebrate with Marianna.

Parang si Pia lang ang kulang sa picture na ito. Sayang lang at nung sabado din flight nila pauwi ng Japan kaya di sila naka attend.

Madami din naging visitors. From my officemates, former classmates, relatives and other friends.

Thank you very much sa lahat ng naki celebrate sa amin.

Anak, mahal na mahal ka namin ng Daddy mo.

Nandito lang kami para sa yo.

We pray that you'll be the best that you can be and with God's grace and mercy we know you'll be a good, healthy, smart, sweet & respectful child.

We love you Anak.

Mini 2nd Birthday Celebration for Marianna

Last 28 September 2010 was my Marianna's 2nd birthday. Pinaghanda lang namin sya ng konti sa bahay. Above are two mini cakes for her. Chocolate fudge cake and White forest bought at Red Ribbon.

Pansit palabok (fave ni Yanna), puto & roasted chicken

Handa ni Yanna ....

Picture with daddy na huling huli si Marianna na inaabot yung Coke at naawat, hehe.

Inaabot pa din nya yung softdrinks kaya ko hawak hawak yung kamay nya, hehe.

Happy Happy Birthday Anak. Daddy and Mommy loves you so much. We hope and pray that you'll grow up to the best that you can be and we want you to know that Mommy and Daddy will always be here for you. God bless.



Welcome Party for Masaki

Last sunday, September 26, we attended Masaki's Welcome Party at Jollibee Cherry Fooderama Branch.

Masaki is Pia's son. Pia is a highschool classmate of mine at La Consolacion College Caloocan.

Mommy and Baby wearing our terno. Picture picture muna before leaving the house.

Daddy kisses Marianna first bago kami umalis, di kasi sya sumama ....

Mini Stage set up for Masaki at Jollibee

Masaki's picture collage at the wall. It was his christening and 1 year 4 months birthday celebration at the same time

Nag roam na agad ang anak ko checking out some party hats and paper mats ....

The host and jollibee welcoming the celebrant and his family

Isa ako sa tinawag ni Pia to participate in one of the games, hip hip hurray. Kasama ko si bff Peachy and Jack na naging kaklase din ni Pia like me. Sinabihan ko nga si Peachy na wag syang tatawa kasi matatangal ako agad. Mahina kasi ako sa mga bagay na dapat may koordinasyon. Sinuwerte lang ako ng bahagya kaya 1st runner up ako, hehe. Ang prize ko? maliit na brats na coin bank para kay Marianna.

Enjoy kami ni Marianna. Umiyak lang si Marianna nung lumapit si Jollibee sa kanya. Naku pano kaya to sa sabado e sa Jollibee din party nya.....

 Masaya kasi nagkita kita kaming mag kakaklase with our kids. 

Thank you Pia for inviting me and Marianna. Hope to see you again soon pag nagbakasyon ulit kayo dito sa Pinas.

CONTIS

Last saturday before going home from Marianna's gymboree class at Trinoma, I asked hubby if we could pass by Contis to buy a slice of their famous Mango Bravo.

We bought some Chicken pies (Php 25.00/ea), a slice of Mango Bravo (Php 120.00/slice) and half a box of their assorted pastries (Php 150.00)

Assorted Pastries

All of these taste good. I particularly like the marbled brownies.

A slice of Mango Bravo.

Now I know it does taste good.

Even hubby liked this.

I hope we can try some of their dishes the next time we go there but another slice of Mango Bravo will definitely be on our menu again.

PB & CO.

Last saturday, hubby and I went to SM North Edsa to buy something and we had our snack at PB & CO.

Inaya ko sya dito kasi di pa ko nakakain dito and I have seen many reviews about this resto and it does seem interesting.

We ordered soda float each ( Php120/ea) and root beer to go with it (Php 45/ea)

I think the cup has 2 big scoops of vanila ice cream

Our rootbeer float/dessert

I had "Elvis the King" half sandwich (Php 85.00)

Toasted sandwich with crunchy peanutbutter, bananas and bacon

This is very filling. Parang bitin pero nakakabusog din and I can very much make this sandwich at home.





Fish Diablo Pasta

Hubby had me taste this. This has their Chilli peanut butter on it.

Mark find this a little too spicy. Kaya nga diablo e, hehe. He should have ordered devil kung meron that would have been not too spicy. haha.

Our Bill

I find this dine in experience as OK.

Peanut butter in everything is not an everyday thing for me.

Another Terno for Me and Marianna

Bought this at Kids of Bayo last Friday when Hubby and I met at Robinsons Manila.

Im looking forward to wear this at Masaki's Party this Sunday
