Amazing Monday: Baby Photography

It's just so amazing how beautiful all babies are... especially when they are asleep. Everything is so peaceful when I look at them. I'm not yet a mother and I'm not even married but I don't have to be to appreciate these amazing little creatures.

Yummy Gensan: Dragon Fruit Shake at Cafe Mita

Cafe Mita is a newly opened restaurant in General Santos City. I've seen its photos from a friend's FB account (so much is really happening in FB). So last night, my girl friends and I decided to try it out.

Laiza, Me, and Ate Doli after our meal.
Smiles of satisfaction.

The attendant highly recommended their dragon fruit shake. I never had one before. And since I liked trying out something new, I grabbed a glass while my company settled for the classic mango juice and a bottle of coke. 

When it was served, I was amazed of how super bright pink it was! (Insert kangaroo hops here.) It was nearly purple and I melt for purples. Ahhh.... My dragon fruit shake. How gorgeous you are! And you're oh so yummy, too!

The happy me with my dragon fruit shake

Dinner wouldn't be complete without our rice meals. Look how yum their dishes are. Prices are very reasonable!

And me with my honey chicken

What else do I like about the place? The colors. The colors of oranges and lemons and limes are so playful and youthful. I'm like in a garden surrounded by beautiful flowers and green bushes. 

Look. They even have fresh flowers on the table!

Pretty teapots are also all over the place! I feel like I'm in a countryside!

If you are up for the moonlight and the starry starry night, they also have tables and chairs outside.

Three words for Cafe Mita -  fresh, playful, sassy!

Amazing Monday: Toilet Paper Crafts

I'm completely amazed by what I've found from my new favorite site apartment therapy. I've never thought of doing these to my toilet paper tubes. So clever and crafty!

                      

                     

Daydreaming Saturday: Boracay Island

My friends and I booked a trip to Bora come October. We had our tickets late last year and since then, we've been talking and dreaming about it. It'll be my first time going there though I've been to Capiz several times which is just four hours away from Bora.

I didn't have the feel of seeing the island then. I assumed it would just be another white sand beach. I don't know. I can't tell. But being a world famous as it is, it must be really attractive. Now, I'm excited!

Bora, I can't wait to experience you!

Yummy Gensan: Going Japanese at Rai-rai Ken

I found these photos of the Pugadbaboy from last year as I was looking for updates of their whereabouts. This group loves to eat a lot! And when I say a lot, I really mean humongous! Well, what can I say? That's why we're called Pugadbaboy. :)

These were taken at Rai-rai Ken KCC Mall of Gensan but the store is now at Robinson's place. 

    

I miss having them around so this post is some kind of a reminiscing good times... and good food! :)


     

    

I love Japanese food except for the sushi which is very ironic because I live in Gensan where tuna sushi's are a must-try. I love how tasteful their meat sauces are. Simply superb! Heehee. I told you. I'm not a professional foodie. I only can say a food is delicious or not delicious. That's all! :) And in Rai-rai Ken, my golly! The food is delicious! :)

    

    

Hey you guys! I miss you!

Treats For A Royalty: The Horizon Spa

Every last Friday of the month is a "Pamper Me Day" for Laiza and I. This month, we agreed to go to a spa! Ahuh! It's the best treat ever!

I heard and read many great things about The Horizon Spa so it must really be something. We gladly hopped up and looked for the area. And to our amazement, it really was something! :) Just by merely looking at the entrance, I knew I could expect excellence! That's how first impressions work!

This is where it all happened. The hhmmm, the oohhh, the heehee, and the zzzzzzz.

The masseuses asked how our massages be done- hard or soft. Laiza said, "Hard!" I answered after a short pause, "Softest!" :) I don't like heavy hands. I like everything to be soft and easy. The masseuse was obedient enough to grant my request that's why I fell half-asleep. I couldn't help it! The massage was so good!

Got so sleepy after the massage

I almost forgot to take pictures. Then after I remembered, the receptionist was kind enough to take us to a little tour to capture the other rooms of the spa.

I'm so impressed! They lived up to their promise: "For people in General Santos City who are very particular about the kind of spa they want to visit, preferring an establishment that should be special enough to transport them into nirvana-like state and offering services beyond the usual massage and foot rub, then they do not have to look far and wide anymore. The Horizon Spa and Fitness Studio has just opened to cater to their every whim and caprices and treat them like royalty."

I felt like a royalty being served and pampered to my satisfaction!

Confession: I was supposed to make a post on this last night but when I arrived, I found myself longing for my bed. No, not because I was tired but because my body was ready to rest and I had 9 straight hours of sleep. Talk about spa benefits! Love that!
