The Shopaholic In Me

Jody’s Christmas Gift Suggestion

So who would say that you can only give flowers during valentine’s day? Well, not anymore this time. I myself, would like to receive beautiful floral centerpieces during the holidays. This is the time when you really have to decorate your home since a number of guests can come by. During christmas, we really intend to design our place appropriately for the occasion because my god daughters and sons are really passing by to collect their gifts. It’s also the time when I get to meet my friends again whom only see during this time of the year. Last year, I got compliments with the dining table arrangement I made. I had to make it really festive using colors red and green. I partnered it with a floral arrangement in the middle of the dining table with something like this:

It was actually a wreath. This year, I want to use the colors orange and yellow for the dining centerpieces. I actually haven’t bought anything yet so far. I plan to buy all christmas decors by next weekend since I have started to buy christmas gifts as well. Apprently, the christmas tree is not yet up. I hope to do it soon as well.

I saw nice christmas floral centerpieces in the Rockwell Mall last weekend. There are actually a lot nowadays. When giving our any christmas decors, you may send it to the recepient in advance so it would really be a great gift idea!

Last night, amidst the traffic, I braved myself to drive to Mall of Asia to attend a special launch of Haagen Dazs new catering packages. I have to be honest that I was so damn lazy to go. In fact, I called up my coordinator friends asking if they were also going because I don’t have plans to. But I got guilty because I already confirmed with my friend, JP, who is the organizer of the event.  I arrived an hour late since i came from a meeting in Makati that ended up at 6pm.

Good thing I really went because the food was so good, actually all the desserts! yum, yum yum. Can’t get enought of the new creations they have. I think I bloated with calories because I tasted all the offerings.  Well, I have always love Haagen Dazs and it has been my ultimate fave ice cream, (never mind the price!).

They had an ice cream bar, cocktails and smoothies and my ultimate favorite strawberry ice cream cake! Oh, too bad, I didn’t bring a camera cause it won’t fit in my chic yellow bag that I was carrying.

But guess what’s the best and greatest thing about last night? I won the grand prize through a raffle!

Ah, I’m still ecstatic!

I won a special cocktail party good for 50 pax hosted for FREE by Haagen Dazs!!!!! They would serve everything that was in the party last night! I just need to tell them when I plan to have it!

Yahoo! Yahoo!  Yahoo!

Happy! Happy! Happy!

I have ultimate reason to party!!!!

I have recent fascination with red, either with dress, shoes, bags or just about anything. I was surfing the whole afternoon, looking for a perfect dress style for an upcoming wedding we would be attending in Baguio and all the ones that caught my fancy are RED HOT dresses!

I love the ruchings of these dresses!  I think it would make me look slim! But with just a week to go, I doubt if I can still have any of this made!  

Might just wear my existing YELLOW gown!  Bwahaha, ang gulo ko!

Since I was all affected with rankings and all, I decided to just let go and let loose last weekend. I spent quality time with family, with the kids and Dicky. I had an event last saturday and so Dicky used Amanda to download some mac games from Phelios. He then showed me a great new mac game that he got. So off to my in-laws place yesterday, Dicky and I played this new game the whole afternoon while the kids are asleep. It is one of the newest rpg games available from Phelios, which can give you a step-by-step procedure to download the game and even give a tutorial about the game itself. Now, that is bonding! lol!
