Welcoming cousins from Japan and Dinner at Trinity Seaside Macapagal

Hubby's cousins from Japan came home for a 3 weeks vacation. They arrived yesterday morning and so busy meeting up with relatives and going to her new wife's side of the family. While in the office, hubby texted me that we will be having dinner at Dampa. I stayed in the office for a while then commute to Bluewave Macapagal to meet them.

Trinity Seafood Restaurant is my family's favorite whenever we eat in Dampa. When we got there, dun rin pala kami because the side of the family of Julius wife likes Trinity also. Lots of food were ordered by them, dumating kami na naka-ready na ang food. hehe. Sa gutom hindi narin nakapag-picture ng food.

 

Eto ang photo ng food. Hubby took this photo, pinapakita kung gano ko kalakas kumain! hehe. On my plate are crabs, buttered shrimp and tempura. First round palang kasi :)

 Syempre di ko pinalampas ang calamares at lapu-lapu. Instead of Baked tahong,we had Baked Oysters. We also had Sinigang sa Miso and Grilled Liempo. Super busog na naman. While i attacked the crabs, my daughter naman liked Tempura. Medyo napagod lang ako d2 kasi wala akong masyadong ginawa kundi ipagbalat ng hipon ang mag-ama ko :(

Last picture before going home

Our stay in Trinity ended past 12am. I was so sleepy then,nakatulog na nga din si Tami. Sa sobrang puyat di na ko nakapasok. Hubby still go to office because of his dry-run training. Did you know that he's now a team lead - trainor? Yup! he's now a trainor and at the same time handling 2 teams. So proud of my man!

Before i end this post, we wanna thank Julius and Anna for the sumptuous dinner and their pasalubong to us :)

Tami's New Crocs Wedge - dami na daw kasing utang ni Ninang Anna.. hehe

Kitson watches - ang cute nito... parang gusto ko gamitin :)

 Adidas shoes for hubby

My requested Biore sunblock. At nawawala ang Shiseido makeup ko... huhu... Sino kaya ang tumira non? Before they came home, they already showed what they bought for us so i was expecting the Shiseido makeup... Sayang at nawala :(

Im still happy kasi may Biore naman and the Shiseido Lip Scrub. Tagal kong naghahanap nito dito sa Pinas pero wala. Sa Japan lang talaga may Biore.

And lastly, sweets :)

Again, Thanks Julz and Anna..

Little Shopping in Southmall..

I was chatting with my cousin during lunch because my other cousin is going to the US for a talk on May 6 (sponsored by his school -Philippine Science High School) Galing! Im a proud cousin here! Since he is scheduled to meet with our relatives, my cousin in the US request something that can be found in the National Bookstore.

At around 2pm, i went to SM Southmall to buy the book requested by my cousin. Hubby told me that Southmall is sale but when i arrive it is not the mallwide sale, what makes it full of people is because of Piolo Pascual. He was having mall tour for his album. I texted hubby that im going home late because i want to see Papa P and while waiting, i bought all the needed stuff and went around.

When its time for Piolo to sing in the crowd, i hurriedly went to the activity center just to see Piolo, sobrang daming tao and super gwapo ni Piolo. I was enjoying that time because of the song that Piolo sang when hubby texted me:

Hubby's first text..

I didn't reply at first, after a couple of minutes, he texted again!

Hubby's second text...

Kahit labag sa loob kong umuwi that time at kahit enjoy pa ko looking at Papa P, i have no choice but to go home.

After dinner, i took the photos of what i bought in Southmall.

Latest book of Bob Ong

This is the request of my cousin. It is one of her collection since i dont remember.

 

Tagalog Pocketbooks

Its for me and the yaya. Pampalipas oras! haha.. corny na kung corny.

 

Havaianas Flip-flops for Hubby

It was his bilin because his flip-flops was already torn. He was using his old flip-flops inside the house.

 

Sayang hindi sya sale.

 

Flojos flip-flops for me

I dont want havies na because the quality is not that good anymore. Currently, i am using Ipanema and i bought this Flojos to try and its really soft and comfy, Hubby said sana Flojos na lang binili ko for him.

Flojos in SM Southmall is having sale at almost 40%.

I got mine at P700.00 only from the price of P1,095.00

My little shopping wouldn't be complete without these:

 

Meiji chocolates..

and Hubby's deodorant spray.

 

That's how my little shopping goes... I was happy today that i got to see Papa Piolo in person.

Star Cruise Souvenir and Ikea Sweets..

My cousin went on a cruise recently and he texted me yesterday to come over to MOA and get my pasalubong. Me and hubby was supposed to be with him on the said cruise but we chose not to join because the house is our priority right now. If we go on a cruise with him, the estimated expense for the two of us is almost 100,000 inclusive of all tours and fares to Singapore-Manila and vice-versa. This does not include shopping and food pa kaya malaki talaga. Anyway, i still want to go on a cruise but not now. Maybe after the construction of the house at pag maayos na lahat.

They will go again on an Asian cruise this coming May. Hay... So sad that we will not be able to join them :) Wag ko na kaya munang ipagawa yung bahay? haha...

Yesterday, i went to MOA after office and i did a little shopping because its payday again. Woot! Woot!

Star Cruise ID Pin

Kaya pala hindi ako nagbabalak bumili ng id pin kasi may magbibigay pala sakin.

Cute naman :) Bagay na bagay sa ID ko...

And he also bought me Ikea Sweets in Singapore. He also told me that Ikea is on sale. He bought kitchen utensils in Ikea because of its 50 to 70% off the price.

Ikea Chocolate

He gave me sweets and this dark chocolate is my favorite! Perfect stress reliever :)

Me and Tami consumed the half of this dark chocolate bar..

Thanks cuzin for the pasalubong. I really appreciate small things lalo na pag bigay, kahit san pa yan galing or what, as long as galing sa puso ang pagbibigay.. hehe *drama*

Cuz, hubby wants the Star Cruise ID lace, can you buy him on your next cruise on May? And also pag sale pa din ang Ikea, let me know so i can ask you to buy me some goods :)

Selecta Hershey's Collection

Last Saturday, when hubby and i went to SM Center for merienda, we do a quick grocery in Hypermarket. While im on the raw foods section, i told hubby to get ice cream for Tami and get me chocolates since im busy getting some raw meats.

When he comes back to where i am, he handed me this ice cream with Reese's chocolate. He told me to try it because its looks delish. Ice cream and chocolate in one.

800ml pint = PhP 135.00

This New ice cream from Selecta is rich in Chocolate flavor loaded with chunks of Reese's Peanut butter chocolate! Yummy..

When its time to try it at home, i open the tub and looks like its just a regular chocolate ice cream but as you dig the ice cream, it has bits of Reese's chocolate. Its really good. Hubby said its rich in chocolate flavor with after taste of peanut butter aside from the bits of the chocolate.

I am on my diet but i can't resist to try this. The perfect chocolate/ice cream indulgence :)

Marks & Spencer goodies

While waiting for hubby in ATC, i went to Marks and Spencer to look for something to give this Christmas because every year i always bought some of their lotions as my xmas present. As i walk inside the store, i noticed that they have new stock of chocolates and i bought some as my pasalubong for my daughter.

This Swiss Milk Chocolate is only P65.00. I tried it before and i can say its really yummy, its very smooth and creamy. I love it!

When i went home and about to give my pasalubong, i was shocked when i saw our room..

she's eating Cornetto ice cream while watching tv...what a mess!

While hubby is preparing to sleep, i waited for tami to finish her ice cream while i clean the room and picking up the toys that are scattered in the floor...

and look what she did with our desktop computer, she poured it with baby powder...tsk. tsk...

Anyway, i still give her the chocolate that i bought at M&S but i told her to put it on fridge and eat it the next day...

Cosmetics: Maybelline

When hubby went to Sm, I ask him to buy me face powder since mine is nearly wiped-out. I want MAC but it's not available in SM Southmall, What i said is just look for an international brand so i can try it also. When Jen was here, i was asking her to just give me her Revlon face powder because its like new and i also tried Revlon before. But since its the only powder she had at that time, she just said that when she will send Balikbayan box on December, she will bought me one in Singapore. Thanks in advance jen *wink*

Hubby bought this Maybelline face powder for only P199.00, he told me that when he was in Department store, it was the first name that he saw and he did not think twice. For me, Maybelline is also good, you will find maybelline products in all department store and also gives you reasonable price. This brand has been around for years and proven it's quality.

He also told me that after getting this powder, he also look something for pasalubong and since tami and i loves chocolate, he just headed to food section and he got us this:

FerreroRocher chocolates

                                     

Hubby's so sweet *wink*
