Im Loving Rachael Ray

 For this year, i want to go on the traditional colors but not too traditional. Meaning, i don't want overwhelming Christmas vibe but still christmasie. No more Christmas trees. Checkered is the new Christmas for me.  I love the display shelves on the side. It will be the home of my different Christmas accessories. Oh Santa is coming to town on my home. I love how many santa figures are gathered all over. I still made some editing to clean out the look. I added two not too similar side tables. I cant wait for the final Christmas look

I ate twice already in Sizzling Plate in SM Lipa City. The first time we visit the store, I ordered this salad because they don't have enough veggies served on their menu. And when I went back with my friends, I again ordered the same salad plate, their mixed green salad which I liked very much. The sweet cherry tomatoes, the cranberry dressing, the crispy lettuce, its worth a try...

You see, I again for the nth time disposed my sofa set, the wicker one. Actually my friend wants it and given the opportunity to have a new look on my home, I gave in. So I was left with my old sitting pieces and I was amazed that I still have the complete living room set up even if the wickered sofa was gone. So let me share with you my living room now.  I love how it actually looks now. I love that it highlights my wooden pieces and how coherent it is with my antique theme. The biggest piece, a three seater wooden sofa was given a softer look by bringing in some pillows and upholstery. Again, the centerpiece is my narra chest which is an antique from a flea shop in Makati. I love when the lampshade was lit up to bring warm and coziness to the area. This is another view with a closer look at my sofa. I am glad that I chose that transparent lamp as not to cramp the space. The native bean bags are tucked underneath the sofa in case anyone wants to use it. Again, the only thing

These are my ultimate comfort food these days... The garlic mushroom from Pizza Hut is to die for. I love the meaty flavor of the bell button mushrooms with a balance of saltiness and spiciness in it. This is a try for just a cents. Of course the ultimate comfort food will always be pasta. Their Aglio Olio is a nice combination with the buttered mushrooms. I just love the simplicity of it. It will be a plus if there will be enough olive oil and chilis in it. And how about fresh greens to go with it...Its really an ultimate fresh and healthy overload.

It was a fine day when we headed to Calatagan Batangas for the annual DMCI Family Day. Aquaria in Playa Calatagan is a chosen venue for the said event. It was a nice resort. The sea is clean and safe. There are grasses underneath the water which makes it perfect home for fishes. In fact i've seen some as I headed towards the water. The waves are minimal making you enjoy without worrying about drowning for those like me who doesn't know how to swim. But the sea level can be very low on low tide. Plus, sea urchins are plenty so everyone are encourage have their slipper on while on the beach. The sand is perfect for camping. Overnight stay on camp tents are allowed on the beachfront. Though they don't have hotels or rooms to stay, they are allowing tenents for a night. It would be perfect for someone like me wanting to stay on the beachfront till morning. Trees on the beachfront are protecting you from the night breeze. Look how clean is the beachfront. It is really
