this isn’t apple?

Journaling:
Your first favorite word is apple.
You seem to think that
all red plump fruit is an apple.
But today, mommy said
you are holding a tomato.
You just had to take a longer look.
Then you simply moved on to another toy,
the banana.
Mommy thought she’ll wait some other day
to tell you it’s corn.

all set

Whew! Finally, I have found a perfect pair of shoes for my formal dress. We were also able to buy Mikee a formal dress and shoes. Her dress doesn’t really have the same cut and fabric as my dress but they are complementary. You see, my dress is dark brown, hubby’s tie (since he’s part of the entourage, he has to follow the motif) is green and Mikee’s dress is pistachio green. So, like our friend Maniya said, the clothes are all in the “organic” hues.

I wonder what things-to-do I might have forgotten. I had my hair treated and hubby’s suit is ready for pick-up. We’ll have the car repaired after this wedding party. We have brought it to the casa for its estimate. Good thing for online car insurance, cost will mostly be shouldered by the insurance company.

I guess we’re all set. Wait, I need a bag! Geez!

spa accessories

After a long stressful weekend, wouldn’t it be nice to soak in a hot tub and enjoy the spa? What’s even more relaxing is a great view to go with it. So instead of that big gray panel type spa cover, SpaScenes spa accessories can give you a panoramic or full view of your favorite nature surroundings. This is a very affordable way to achieve the “backyard spa with a landscape” look. You don’t have to worry about its installation too. They are easy to install and trim to fit. Very durable too so you know you get your money’s worth.

Guess what? You can also change the scenes. So whether you want a lagoon, a waterfall or a lake, there’s a view that would suit your mood.
Just imagine, a view of the beach and the sunset while immersed in a hot tub. Wow.

Now, that’s total hot tub experience. ;)

dress talk

My sister-in-law was looking for a formal dress too. She has gained weight these past few months. I suggested one dress that I wore when I have just given birth to Mikee that will sure look good on her. Unfortunately, it was too small for her. Small not in length but in body circumference by two inches. We were laughing when she was trying it on. I said we still have two weeks, she can just take Leptovox and she’d fit in the dress. She decided to just buy a new formal dress and not take her chances.

I suggested she come with me and Maniya while we shop for Mikee’s dress. This should be fun. :)
