A Much Needed Break

Sorry I haven’t been blogging. I wasn’t feeling well. I’ve had frequent attacks but nothing to worry about. Because of that, MB and I decided to go on a quick getaway in the city.

This is where we will be staying for the next couple of days:

Poor MB was having migraine attacks and so he conked out the minute he hit the bed. I had to go out and buy food as we haven’t had lunch yet.

This is where I’m blogging now:

It opens up to this:

All the tables open up like that. It has a mirror inside.

We haven’t gone far. We’re just at A. Venue Suites. So far, I like it here. I didn’t take a pic of the bathroom as it was ugly. Yeah. It’s tiny and there isn’t enough space for my toiletries. It’s too cramped.

We also don’t have any intentions of eating at the restaurant as we’ve been there and the food was not nice. Maybe they’ve improved but I don’t want to bet my money on it.

Our lunch on the other hand, was from Sicilian. I ordered a Hawaiian Pizza and seafood marinara pasta. The pizza was okay but the pasta was a huge disappointment. Wait, these should be on my other blog – 240 baon + 365 meals! Haha! Well anyway, that’s that. I also got MB one cup of chocolate mint ice cream to make him feel better.

There’s no internet here and I’m using Tatoo. I promise I’ll write some posts and will upload them whenever possible. But I’m pretty sure that there will be regular posts in the coming week. This is a perfect place to blog.

How are you spending your long weekend?

  1. The place looks pretty nice, I'm surprised that the bathroom is not pretty though, if you didn't post the picture it must be that errr.. not picture worth it huh? hehe.

    How long will you be staying there? There's a Sicilian restaurant at Alphaland but after what you said good thing we haven't eaten there yet. Looking forward for that blog of yours.

    Weekend will be spent at work for me, haha. Do take care E!

Soft Luxe Staycations: Binondo Series - The Great Buddha, Curated Purchases from Eng Bee Tin, and Last Thoughts About Ramada

After buying a lot of stuff on the first floor, we headed upstairs to eat a light lunch. Mom was getting hungry. My son and I just ate, but we said that we will accompany her and will just order something light. 

All About Eyes

Lately I’m finding myself obsessed with skin care products, prevention in particular. I'm not getting younger and nobody likes lines and wrinkles, right? I should have done this in my early twenties but those were hard times and we didn’t have enough to support our daily lives, let alone vanity splurges. So now, I’m on hyper mode. I did not place any expectations on this product. I’ve had it with products claiming they can do this and that. I just tried the product thinking that if it works then great, if not then I’ll just find a new one. I wasn’t expecting a dramatic change but 2 weeks into using this product, I noticed that my under eye area has become lighter. The lines are also not as deep as they were before I used this product. I stopped using the Garnier eye products because I’m allergic to them so that means I’m not using any whitening products for that area. I am truly impressed with this product. I didn’t take a before and after photo as I wasn’t expecting this at ...

Alone Time

My good friend Kitten and I were supposed to go out yesterday but she had some unexpected things come up. I needed to buy some stuff as I am packing for a trip and so I went alone. I actually enjoy going out alone as much as going out with girlfriends or MB. It gives me a chance to eat whatever I like to eat and explore new restos. It’s also nice to take my time when shopping. After paying my bills, I had a late lunch at Toast Box: I love Hainanese Chicken. I sometimes cook this dish but it’s too tedious so I settle for eating out. I’m so happy that there are now restaurants that serve proper Hainanese Chicken. Well, except that one above was sooooo bloody. It was swimming in blood when I pulled the meat apart so I had it changed. You know what Gordon Ramsay says, bloody chicken is poisonous. This is the second time I ate at Toast Box and in both times, the chicken was so bloody. After lunch, I started shopping. First stop was Beabi where I bought these: The Sakura thermos on...
