My darling daughter celebrated her birthday a few weeks ago. We surprised her with a Dance and Glitz and Glam-themed birthday party. One of the day’s biggest surprises was THE ride that took her and her gal pals to a surprise location…

This ride needs no handheld gps. Hee hee. The surprise location was a kiddie salon, where the girls had their hair, nails and make-up done. They also got to play dress-up and had a mini fashion show at the end their hour-long make-over. I still feel tingly all over when I think back to that special celebration. Thank you, dear God, for all the blessings!

Hubby and I recently celebrated our 9th wedding anniversary.  This time around, we got to celebrate with the people dearest to us, our loved ones in the Philippines.  That’s a precious gift in itself, priceless and well worth more than a Galaxy Tablet PC.

Our vacation’s over.  God willing, we will be reunited with our loved ones again.  Hopefully, closer to where we now currently reside.   God is good and in His time, He will continue to answer all our fervent prayers and grant our fondest wishes.

I took the above photo two hours after the New Year festivities in Eastwood City, Quezon City’s most happening place these days.  We have a nice photo booth pic to commemorate the end of 2010 and the start of 2011 but the scanner software isn’t working so I can’t post it.

We had fun ushering in the New Year.  May God bless all of us more in 2011!  Cheers!

I celebrated my birthday last Saturday, birthday number three-five.   I made myself a birthday cake on Friday night.  I make birthday cakes for friends and children of friends so I thought, I ought to be night to myself, too and make myself a birthday cake. 

I made a Mocha Cake with Italian Meringue Mocha Buttercream and opted for a very simple cake decoration.  Come to think of it, I have yet to make a fondant covered birthday cake for my immediate family!  That’ll have to change soon! Anyway, at least, for my cake, the decorations were fondant.  I actually had a more elaborate design in mind, but ditched the idea for one that was stress-free to make. I also didn’t want to stay up too late and risk looking like I desperately need the best acne treatments on my birthday!

It was a yummy cake.  You can even ask hubby and my daughter! Hee hee.

Cheers to birthdays!

I used to think I was unlucky in raffles and the like.  But since reading The Secret, I’ve changed the way I think. Nevertheless, I was still pretty surprised when I was informed that I won a year’s supply of eggs from Eggland’s Best Eggs.

Last month, I received my winnings in the form of 26 coupons each of which is good for a dozen eggs.  You can just imagine how happy I was!  With the amount of baking and cooking that I do, a year’s supply of eggs while definitely go a long way.

I look forward to winning more prizes!  Prizes mean more reasons to be happy.  And being happy is a sure fire way of slowing down the need for prototype 37c

Have a great weekend, y’all!  Cheers!
