Yes, I love Ethan Allen! It was one of the furniture shops we checked when we were furnishing the house but we just can’t afford a sofa set for Php350K!!!
We opted for customized one instead. But should you have the budget, check out what they have to offer until end of the month. I also love their linens especially the curtains and bed throws there. It was all imported fabrics. Of course, they cater as well to modern design of furniture. Drooling over their nice embellishments for the house. They are located in Pioneer Street, Pioneer St.At Reliance St, Mandaluyong City. Tel. 63.2.634.8587.

I so love the newest promo from HSBC credit card this time. Learned about it from a pop displays I saw from most of Starbucks counter like this one…

I am a sure patron of this promo. As you know Starbucks coffee shops have been my regular meeting venues. Good thing, I was really keeping all those charge slips. The promo would run from April 1-June 30. Redemption would be until August 30. Just be aware that they would get your charge slip so if you are keeping track of it like me to counter check with my bill, better to just record your purchases. Now, I would have to split up my grocery shopping to different charge slips so I could get more of these free drinks! You get mabuhay miles from PAL by using this credit card and you also get free drink from starbucks. I love it!!!

There is a craze recently about Long Champ. And I saw this nice limited edition from one the resellers that I usually go to. No, I didn’t buy it. But it’s so pretty! I love the thicker material used on this than the usual le pliage. But I am a scared cat to get one since it is white. But the reseller said, she has the exactly the same bag that has been swamped by the wrath of Ondoy. After washing it off, she got it back on it’s nice pristine white color. Hmm, now I am thinking…

I have high hopes that I would get to my desired weight by month end or at the very least before we leave for our vacation on May. Since this is a bet with the husband, I am trying my best to win the pot money, not to mention that it would also be good for my health. The husband is also desperate to lose weight so he was telling me that he even wants to get an elliptical already
especially that he saw one from the internet on a special deal of $799. Problem now is how to ship the item here. But he said it would be for a long-time use so even after the bet, he would still like to get a machine for exercising. Getting fit anyway doesn’t stop in just a month’s bet.

With our upcoming trip, I have been thinking whether to get a separate luggage for the kids. I came across Trunki in the mall. I love it actually ever since I saw it. But I am just wondering if it is really worth to get it. Since I have two girls, I’m sure I’ve got to get one for each of them. I hope they would really carry it though. They’ve got cute new designs this time. I love the idea though that kids can pack, carry and ride on their Trunki. Should they get tired, we can also easily and safely pull them along. Hmm, still thinking, should I get for the kids?

Yesterday, went out to enroll Margaux in her school. She is an upcoming Kinder already by this coming school year. Got to finish all stuff for their school before we leave as we would be back in time already for the school to open. In fact, already shopped for their uniform too. Yes, for them since Bianca would also go to the same school. Whew, preschools are expensive. I think their tuition fee is as much as the cost of online college degree. No kidding! Oh well, just the best for our kids. Education is one of the great things we can offer them. In fact, I hope they can really decipher what they want to become in the future. We are just here to support them.

Aside from reading some acne treatment reviews that claims to have no side effects and has proven to be effective, I was busy looking for designs for a dress that I could wear when I actually become one of the Principal Sponsors on my cousin’s wedding in a couple of months. Yeah, I would be
Though I am not so pleased with the idea but I’m accepting it anyway due to the fact that I could wear a gown made by one of my favorite designers in the country today. While I was browsing the internet, I saw this black dress by Ramona Keveza, which I am intending to use as one of my options for pegs of my dress design. I so love the top detail of it


How I wish I have the same back bone as the model! Whew!

I actually received from my email today about this “sign up for our newsletter” information about The Nik Nak Diva Designs. You should check out what they would have to offer since they do have nice greeting cards and invitations selection. It is actually very timely since I’m looking for A unique card for Mom since Mother’s Day is already very near. Have you thought what to send out or give to your moms? Their greeting cards are absolutely stunning. They have cards that are made out of thick card stock and have bright beautiful colors. Most are embellished with ribbons, silk flowers or buttons. It is indeed have a diva touch.

There is a thought of getting a new car. Thinking to upgrade now to a bigger SUV. The husband and I are still under debate. One consideration would be an American SUV. It is a well known fact that Ford has been producing top-quality vehicles over the past years. We are trimming down our options to few brands and model and a Ford Explorer is one of them. I just wonder if the Ford Accessories would be widely available here even outside the regular service centers. I’m kinda hesitant initially about it. But the husband said that most of the parts now can even be ordered online. He discovered that shopping for accessories and parts are now made easy by CARid. The company accepts all forms of payment. It can be via credit card (visa or mastercard), google checkout, even Pay pal, they do accept. Also, based on reviews and testimonials of clients, their staff are known to be knowledgeable of all their products. In fact, their website is even easy to navigate. Placing an order is easy since you can search by vehicle, by model or by product you are looking for. They have multiple warehouses as well so they carry even those hard to find parts. Even car upgrades or aesthetic parts that can make a Ford car look fuller are now available since it is one stop shop. From dash kits, to chromes, to grills and spoilers, they do have those available. They even have price match and easy return policy. With this consideration, we are also now open on the option of getting a Ford SUV. We haven’t come with the final decision yet since we also need to work on our budget. But a new vehicle would be a major investment so we really have to review our options carefully.

Sold these shoes/sandals of the kids last week to my twitter mates. It was sold in an instant. Although, those are not Cole Haan shoes, lol! I was surprised how fast you could sell in twitter. I am enjoying de-cluttering my closet as well as the kids’ closet. It feels like you have cleaned up some excess baggages from there. At least we have more room for new stuff again. Maybe, I could really buy a real Cole Haan shoes this time. I’m heart the white sandal I saw from Blue Fly.

Before I even think to buy diet pills online, I am working on my lists of what to bring for our trip as well as one major list for what to look for in outlet stores in US. I’m sure I’ll go ga-ga over outlet shopping, Target, and even Costco shopping. Just looking on what’s new with ON, I would have wanted to click on checkout already for the items in my shopping cart.
Here’s what I’m looking at…



Still not done browsing as they have nice spring clothes on sale currently!

Way to go for me as I have lost 4 pounds already since last week. Defying my idea of even using the best weight loss products, I am just watching my food intake by taking off carbohydrates from my menu. I actually refrain from eating sweets and drinking soda and caffeinated products. But I still haven’t gone back to running again. I wish I can go back to running few kilometers every evening within the village. With my busy schedule, I am really having a hard time squeezing that in. Though I am still hoping I could still win the challenge with my husband at the end of this month.

There have been plans to add something in our open lawn area
It is still within our talks. The husband needs to see the costing first before he agrees. I haven’t started calling any contractors yet to canvass for it. I’m sure the cost of it won’t be the same with us putting up a small fish pond on the side and getting a fish pond filter for it instead. Can you guess what we are planning? A lapping one would do. I’m sure the kids would have a blast with it if ever it pushes through.
