Filipinos are known to be generous and thoughtful, that’s why wherever part of the world they may be, they don’t forget their loved ones left in the Philippines. Thanks to technology, we can keep in touch with each other and the misery that comes with distance is somehow alleviated. From time to time, our loved ones in the US always remembers to send a little something for relatives here in the Philippines, hence, the emergence of Balikbayan Box. For those who aren’t familiar, the box is full of imported goodies, new and used clothes, imported chocolates, Spam (not the email kind, hehe), sausages, perfumes, toys and other things for your whole Filipino clan.
And here’s the fun krrunch part, opening the box! Let’s begin the Krrunch time at home…
Last night, Jeff and I suddenly recalled our plan on our dream house in Cavite. He had a knack in drawing and sketching and he was able to make the house plan like an expert. We kept the file in our PC for future reference, the plan has undergone different changes from time to time whenever a new idea popped into our minds. Last night was one of them when I called his attention on granite sinks I stumbled in a website. Our original plan was to use a stainless steel sink because that’s the only one we can find readily available in home depots. But if there are other alternatives like a granite sink, we’ll choose this because granites are made to last.
I just love the new site I discovered, it’s Looklet.com. If you’re familiar with Polyvore wherein you can select and combine clothes, accessories, shoes and bags, well, Looklet is better because you can see the outfit worn by a model. The first time I tried making new looks at the site, it took me hours because I was drooling at the designer labels available. It’s a fashionista’s haven because you can check out if a particular looks work for you before wearing it in real-life. So far, I made 3 looks:
If you’re a wine drinker like my father, then you must know how to store your wines and stemwares properly. In our family, Papa is the one who drinks his red wine every night, sometimes he drinks too much but he’s always reasoning out that red wine is good for his heart. My mother drinks red wine just to help her relax before going to sleep. Jeff and I prefer our red wine chilled, and like my mother, we only drink it occasionally.
When I went to the supermarket the other day for biscuits, canned goods and juices for Ondoy victims, I can’t help but smile to the other shoppers whose carts where also filled with groceries meant for the typhoon victims. Shelves in the supermarket ran out of canned sardines, but this is good news, that only means a lot of people already bought them for donations. Some reports state that other relief operation centers are overstaffed with volunteers, I hope more people will donate so that more goods can be packed by these volunteers. Keep ’em coming!
