October Highs

This October was filled with tons of great moments. And because I'm in such a great and positive mood, I'd love to share the good vibes in my life.

I think I wrote about a lot of the earlier ones--blogger food tasting, cousin bonding, red velvet bonding and finally getting my red trench. I haven't gotten around to wearing it yet though. It's been so HOT in Davao! So much for being a -BER month!

By the way, I changed my blog name for like, a couple of days but then I noticed I still got  lot of hits on LVL, so I decided to keep the blog name. Darn! I really wanted to go with The Style Reactor. Haven't seen a blog named that yet, and like I said, I think it goes pretty well with my Chemical Engineering background. Ooh.


So, let's start yeah?

Looking forward to the Weekend (Weekend)

Sorry for the lack of updates. Again, we haven't had internet connection for the past week. It sucks cause we just had it fixed. Good thing we have a broadband stick! Whew!

Anyway, can't believe the week went by so fast! It'll be another weekend tomorrow (Yep, I always consider Friday the start of my weekend, cause my family and I go out for dinner). Here are some pictures of what happened LAST weekend.

love this photo of my brother and dad. So emo

We had dinner in Cafe Laguna in Abreeza. They serve Filipino food. What I love about them is that they have such an extensive menu for desserts! :)

Calamares is our staple appetizer

 Don't you love the feel of the place? It reminds me of a lanai, where you can invite your friends over for a long chat over merienda.

pandan chicken. One of the better ones I've tasted. The chicken was tender and perfectly cooked.

Saturday, we had dinner at my aunt's pizza joint, La Bianca Pizza, over at Robinson's Gateway. My dad was craving for their malasuge fish. It really is good, so flavorful and soft! My aunt said they even have a loyal customer who stops by for that at least 3 times a week! But my sisters and brother like to go there for the milkshakes. We each order one. I know, I know. I feel a little too old to be drinking milkshakes too, but it's just so good!

To our surprise, we found my cousins and their family eating there as well!

Later on, my other aunt walked in. She had just come from grocery shopping at Robinson's and decided to stop by. Then, my mom invited my 2 other aunts to come as well. It was kind of ironic, really. May aunt who owns the place was the only sister missing (my mom has 5 sisters). :(

The moms kept chatting and my cousins and I were getting bored, so we decided to take photos. This is a collage I made for our cousin ate Carms, who just passed the CPA Board Exams. Congrats ate Carms! :-)

Feebee and Irah

Before we left, I asked my cousin to take a photo of Feebee and I. I freaked out! We look so much alike here!

Cheers to hopefully another happy weekend!

Red Velvet

I play this game on Facebook, Baking Life, but last week, our internet was down for about 5 days. I was a bit pissed (talk about being addicted to the game!) cause my baked goods would burn! Anyway, I was happy that I got to experience the real thing when my friend Julienne invited me to come with her and her sister ate Arielle to bake cupcakes in Jane's house.

It was nice cause Jane did not know I was coming. SURPRISE!!! Our recipe was for red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese frosting. Yum, yum!

didn't have any cocoa, so we crushed tablea

Oh yeah, I promised my friends a picture of my brother enjoying our cupcakes.

Meanwhile, continue liking our shop's Facebook page. Watch out for the giveaway when we hit 250! :-)
