Island Cove Cavite

Who's excited?

Island cove allowed Pets - but they must wear diapers, available at the resort for P35

We arrived there at around 9AM and there were no more hut available so we rented tables and chairs for P100 and chose a shaded area.

M and I took turns on looking after  Snowbell

 

We stayed in the pool for almost 3 hours then went to the Fishing Village for our lunch.
Yummy pinakbet and a platter of seafood Inihaw :)

We rode a bike on or way to sanctuary park which is a good decision because we realized it was too far to walk and it's too hot! 

@the sanctuary - we fed the ostriches, got amazed with different birds and went to their crocodile farm which was a bit scary,

All we can say is that sulit na ang aming voucher from metrodeal ;p

Metrodeal voucher = P199 each

Snowbell diaper = P35

Lunch for 4pax = P1997 

Bike 1hour = P100 each

Lucban Buhusaya + IJ's 1st Bday

We celebrated my inaanak's party last Easter sunday in lucban :)

His parents chose the date to have a pool party theme as the town celebrate the "Buhusan" festival. 

When M told me about this tradition, I thought there are people throwing water along the road. 

I didn't know they also setup inflatable pools in front of their houses, kids having fun with waterguns and most of the people are wearing rashguards / swimmng outfit. :)

I love our traditional pinoy birthday parties - with hotdog on sticks + marshmallows, home-cooked foods and games like Pabitin and basagan ng palayok, neighborhood kids -  it brings back childhood memories ;p

Kids having fun :)

Happy Birthday IJ!

Casa Verde @ Megamall

Celebrated our friend's birthday @ Casa Verde Megamall :)

Huge servings for affordable price (about 200+ per dishes). For a group of 4, (3 of which are heavy eaters ;p), I would say sulit naman na.

Warm and woody interior

Chicken fillet plate

I'm the only one in the group who ate the veggie sidings 

Mini Burgers and Fries
I ate the fries 

Tried this fish too (soft and juicy)

I only ate the potato boats. They said the wings is too spicy. 

That was mozarella sticks in the middle

They say the steak here is good (you can request for additional sauce), though I did not try it. 

pero di ko pinalampas ang carrots and corn ;p

I was not able to keep track if they serve fast as we were all busy chatting for like 2 hours. 

The place was packed during dinner time but we were there early so we got a good seat in the corner.

We were not able to finish everything so the celebrant had a take home  :)

February: Life Lately

Some eats and happenings :)

Kuya Jeff's Birthday

Celebrated brother-in-law birthday. Just a simple salo-salo in their home.

We bought pizza and cake from Contis (para maiba hindi puro Mernels, pero lasa naman siyang Mernels!)

 Happy Birthay!!!

Our travel time to Luisiana became 5 hours because of traffic. 

There were roads under construction (hello election!)

I already felt uneasy sitting for so long and look at snowbell (tulala mode na)

You can follow her adventures on Instagram @lifeofsnowbell hehehe

Bibimbowl

Tried Bonchon's Bibimbowl

(While eating, I thought, gagayahin ko nga 'to, looks easy to prepare (w/o the chicken ;p))

For some reason, my favorite food this month is maki.

I made several attempts at home - with mangoes, cucumber, lettuce - any ingredient available.

I made a large batch of this to eat at home and as packed lunch (every week of Feb O_o )

When we were in Megamall, we spotted a Japanese stall in foodcourt, of course, I ordered california maki :)))

This is M's order. In fairness ok naman.

Divisoria

Went to Divisoria again with a friend, bought some stuff from the streets, new divisoria mall and 168 mall. We scored some really good stuff like my vneck plain white and gray tshirts for only Php50 each, Socks for P25, bras 50 each = I bought 6! Shopping galore! Lolz

We ate at Wai Ying where I had mushroom dumplings and we shared the Hakaw.

And happy to bought Broccoli for only Php50 and Asparagus Php35

And just like that Feb just ended, it is a leap year so we have Feb 29! :)

Project Pie Megamall

We tried Project Pie for lunch with my younger bro. 

 Looks like he enjoyed customizing his pizza. While M was not feeling adventurous,  he just chose one from the menu. 

It starts with the sauce, red or white, then the choices of toppings begin. From cheese to meat to veggies - all for P285

As for me, red base, no cheese, tomatoes, pineapple, bellpepper, chicken, basil, caramelised onion.

My bro's pizza, all the cheeses, bacon, pepperoni and bellpeper

and M's 

Here's where M got adventurous - unlimited and you can refill any drinks :)

I'd like to go back and find the perfect combination of toppings ;p

VDay 2016

We started our Valentines day by watching a movie - Deadpool, such a silly and funny movie, it gave me headache literally. We left without waiting for the end of credits scene, we just watched it on youtube.  We strolled around Eastwood, ate pizza and fries in SnR and we claimed M's krispy kreme freebie from his Smart  plan which reminds me I have to check mine too. 

The next day, Sunday, we went out to have our ePass changed to RFID for free in Petron Shaw then we went to Capitol Commons afterwards to use M's starbucks card ( a christmas present he received). 

We decided we won't be spending a lot for this holiday and to add it to our donation for the several animal welfare groups in FB that I followed - PAWA, SaveAll, LBAAW, PART, AFK. I am moved by their efforts on solving the situations of our furry friends. We hoped that we have spread our love to them in our own small and simple way. 

"Happy Valentines day to all!",  love  Snowbell
