Spring hangover all-year

I didn't know that there are lots of videos in youtube about unboxing or more like cracking eggs with bits of surprises inside. If I had know that these videos would attract many kids, I would have uploaded Izhi's homemade egg-hunting experience a long time ago.

I tried looking for online shops who sells these kind of chocolate eggs, and found out that it was unreasonably expensive. Like its P150 for 2 pieces of eggs, and I'm like what! So I did not continue with the purchase, instead I asked Waldy if he can find small eggs in the market with candies inside. Unfortunately, it was out of stock that day. 

Last night, we went at Ate Joy's house for Kuya John's birthday dinner, and I told her that Yuri is so into eggs lately because of these videos that he keeps on playing with the marbles egg decorations in their house. Luckily, she saved some of the eggs from their previous egg-hunt and gave it to Yuri.

So today, I bought some small toys like cars and motorcycles which Yuri really likes ( because he's also so into wheels ) for P5 each, got him some candies for P1 each, and my milkyway mini bar and voila! I have egg surprise for him! 

Imagine, I only paid P45 for all the toys and candies I bought instead of buying that expensive egg.

I think its all about being creative. Toddlers and kids doesn't really care how expensive or cheap a toy is, as long as its fun to play with. They are simple and full of imagination.

I'm giving myself a pat in the shoulder for doing what I think is best to let Yuri experience what it feels like to open an egg with a little prize inside, and for not overspending. Hahaha!

Lily's Peanut Butter in Lite Version

I grew up eating Lily's Peanut Butter so I'm happy that there's a lite version now for older people like me.  People are becoming more and more aware of the health value of the things they eat and drink. And by the looks of things, this emphasis on health is becoming more than just a simple fad; health consciousness is here to stay. Lily’s Peanut Butter, already 60 years in the industry, saw this rise in health consciousness, and has adapted accordingly through the peanut butter that has become a staple of many a Filipino household. After more than half a century of winning Filipino palates, Newborn Food Products Inc., the maker of Lily’s Peanut Butter, launched its newest product line, Lily’s Peanut Spread Lite, last August 14 at the Lily’s Lite in the City event, held at the Trinoma Activity Center, Quezon City. The whole-day event, hosted by athlete-turned-celebrity-host Gretchen Ho, actor-model CJ Reyes, and singer-model John Pol Dimaculanga...

33 and Taking it Easy

Kanina, before ko i-open itong account ko, ang daming random thoughts na naglalaro sa isip ko. Ngayon ito na, hindi ko na alam paano sisimulan isulat ang nilalaman ng isip at puso ko.  Umpisahan ko siguro sa disclaimer. Mahaba ito, so kung mainipin ka, busy ka (kasi may lakad ka. Char!), judgemental ka (char ulit!) tamang gusto lang mang-bash or simply gusto lang makitsismis kung ano na lagay ng buhay ko ngayon, click back nalang para exit ka na. Pero if meron kang same na pinagdadaanan as I am, or you just like me, super-friends tayo and you're geniunely concerned of what's going on in my life, then read on! Super nagpapasalamat ako sa lahat ng taong bumati at nakaalala sa birthday ko. Hindi ko na iisahin kasi ang dami! At nakakataba talaga ng puso. Kasi yun simpleng precious seconds ng buhay nyo, binigay ninyo sa akin para ipaalam saken na naalala nyo ako.   Para sa isang taong tulad ko na dumaraan sa tinatawag na mid-life or quarter-life crisis. Na parang...
