Vintage Barbie Party

| Friday, January 27, 2012
It was the first party which my daughter and I attended for the year 2012.
A vintage pink and black Barbie party for Reese, daughter of my lovely friend Irese.
The party was held in Max Restaurant in Scout Tuazon in Quezon City.



Reese's friends came to party.
Almost everyone followed the black and pink dress code.


Though the little one didn't really like the magic show,
she was able to enjoy the games and meeting other kids.

Most of all, she had so much fun with the bubble show.
Just look how happy she was inside that giant bubble!

I thought my friend would opt for a Red Ribbon Barbie cake.
She got this customized pink Barbie birthday cake instead.

This DIY candy bar was the kids' favorite that day.
This corner was filled with wafers, candies, mallows, cupcakes, etc.

My old officemate and friend in a pink dress.
Read: she's not the birthday celebrant. It was her daughter! :)


Then, my daughter and I also in black and pink ensembles.
I was supposed to wear something else. It rained so I changed my mind! :(


From L to R: Sionee, Irese, Reese, Israel, Askim, me, Ate Cath and her daughter.

Thanks Diamante-Pabalate Family for inviting us.
The party was a blast!!!

Supporting Walgreens

| Friday, January 20, 2012
This post brought to you by Walgreens. All opinions are 100% mine.

When my daughter was still a baby, we used to frequently visit a pediatrician for immunization, consultation and check ups. That time, her vaccines were quite expensive, thinking that we were getting them from one of the prestigious hospitals in the metro. I remember, she even got flu shots before we flew to Turkey for our longest vacation. We did it because my husband and I were worried that she might get sick while adjusting to a new environment, cold weather, etc. My daughter is now 3 years old, but I wish I was able to save money from her shots.

If only we have something like the Prescription Savings Club at Walgreens. In the US, people turn to this club to save on prescriptions and medications. For a small amount of $10 a year, a family membership already covers everyone in the immediate family. That includes the spouse, all dependents who are 22 and younger and pets. For an individual membership, one has to pay $5 in order to enjoy similar benefits.

Other benefits include the following:
-Savings on more than 8,000 brand-name and all generic medications
-Discounts on flu shots, pet prescriptions, nebulizers and diabetic supplies
-Bonuses when you purchase Walgreens brand products and photofinishing services

I think Walgreens can really help people in terms of health care. In that case, I want to show my support to them by liking Walgreens on Facebook and following Walgreens on Twitter. You should do the same thing too!

Happy Chinese New Year!

| Thursday, January 19, 2012
It's going to be kung hei fat choi in 3 days!
This year, the Chinese New Year falls on the 23rd day of January.
In Megamall the other day, they have this set up of a small Chinatown.
It was looking very lovely with all those red lanterns hanging.


The little one had to pose for a photo.
Hey, stop shaking your hand. Hihi.


Chinese sweets and chocolates were sold from P45 and up.
We got some of those gold coins.

There were tikoys in different flavors.
Too bad they didn't have my favorite pandan flavored tikoy.


And of course, dragon stuffed toys and coin bank representing the year of the dragon. There were other booths offering various services too. Then, I got to read my horoscope for the year 2012. Wooot! 
 This year is going to be fun!! Kung hei fat choi everyone!!!
