Shoes Galore

I believe that women have little Imelda Marcos inside of us. Mrs. Marcos is the Philippine First Lady who became popular because of her love for Shoes. She was believed to have pair of shoes more than we could imagine. I myself love shoes specially the flat shoes. I don’t wear heels because I’m not comfortable wearing those, I’m clumsy most of the time. During my free surfing hours I would always go to a site that sells Women's Shoes. There is this site that offers great deals on women’s and also Men's Shoes. They got a list of famous brands that you can choose from. They guarantee a very reasonable price that every customer could wish for. They also offer a 75 day money back guarantee and free shipping charges for most of the items that they sell. Once you order the package comes with a return instructions in case you are not satisfied and would have to return the goods that you purchased. You would not have to worry about extra bucks to spend on shipping because they have it free for most of the items. The also ensure fast and safe shipments of the purchased goods to your designated location. They promote comfort in the shoes that they are selling. I think it is important if we are buying shoes because as we all know our feet carry our weight so we must give them the comfort that they need. The temptation inside me to buy shoes is growing stronger! Good thing I found a great price for the shoes that I’m eyeing.

I was thinking of enrolling in her baking classes but my workload and schedule won't permit me. She was out for a while in the TV scene but now that she's back I promise my self not to miss any of her show's episode. I'm looking forward for more recipes of baked goodies. I can't wait for it!

New year, new start

I'm starting my year good.

I hope for a great year ahead not just for me but for everyone.

This year I hope for the following:

-Love my self more, I think I have taken my self granted for the past years and maybe it not being selfish to love yourself more.

-More talk time with God. Last year I was too busy that I neglect my duties as Catholic. This year I would make sure to devote more time to the one whom I owed everything.

-More time for my family, more bonding moments.

-Save, lessen expenses. Recession is not yet over.

-Start a small business, extra income. But as of the moment I haven't think of anything.

-Commit more to my work. Finish reports on time. Avoid penalties. I can't afford unsolicited Saturday offs again.

-Travel. Out of the country would be great but trips around the country would be fine.

-Reconnect to old friends, lost friends. Make new ties, win new friends, real friends.

-To be wiser in making decisions to avoid mistakes.

-Sleep, more sleep and more sleep. I wish I could increase my sleeping time during weekdays.

-Be more sensitive to the need of others

-Be happy and optimistic in life. Life is short, we should all make every minute of it worthy.

Pau-pau's Christmas Wish List

When I opened my blog this morning, I saw my Christmas countdown. Thirty eight days before Christmas. I haven't noticed it, maybe because of the deadlines, personal struggles and other stuff that's way I haven't felt that Christmas is coming so soon. I haven't got gifts from my family, my friends and my godchildren (I have I think from my latest count about twenty). Anyways I still have a month to buy those I guess I'll just have to embrace the Christmas rush and traffic.

I was thinking of a Christmas wish list for my self. I know the economy is bad and people should be very frugal but these are just wishes, who knows Santa might grant some of my wishes. After all I have been a good girl the whole year. So I want to share my partial list of Christmas wishes.

- A good health for my family especially my Inay, Itay and Nanay Dading. Its always been my prayers that they be blessed with a longer and healthier life.

-Strength for my Mom and Dad. For all the unconditional love that they have given me in my 26 years of existence, I thank them from the bottom of my heart. Love you mom, love you dad! I'm still keeping my promise, it might not be soon but I would assure you that I would fulfill that.

-Safety for my kuya and his family overseas, and also for all our relatives and friends abroad. I hope we could celebrate a christmas where we would all be complete.

- My visa. I have an existing application for an immigrant visa. Although the embassy told me that it would take four years, I just wish they could make it faster! hahaha! And my kuya hopes I could join them for the 2010 Winter Olympics. I hope so too.

- I wish for a good year for Senju (the company where I worked for). It has been a very difficult year for us. We lost some valuable customers, although we also gained some new ones. We lost some good workers. But I hope we could be in the same level as we were before. And please no more customer claims and unnecessary spendings!

- A good year for our country. Quality education for every Filipino child. Jobs for all unemployed. Unconditional service from all the public servants (the most important!)

- Happiness for all my friends. When they are happy, I'm happy too. They have been a great part of my life and I would always be very thankful for them.

-I wish to have some opportunities from my blogging. I have been blogging for almost a year now and I have achieved a page rank of 1 but unfortunately I haven't got any. But good thing is I gained a lot of friends which are better than any opportunities. But then again, I hope to have some task please....

-More order for KP Creations! More weddings, debuts and baptismals!

- A laptop (I hope my kuya is reading this hahaha!), Clinique Happy, Elizabeth Arden Green Tea and Lacoste Pink all in 100 ml (Paging Kuya! Paging Kuya! You promised me! hahaha!) and a nice designer bag!

- Pugad Baboy XX and more books to read and to add to my collection

- Baking classes with Chef Heny Sison. I really want to attend her classes. I'm really an avid fan and I want to fulfill my passion in baking.

Well this is just a partial wish list, I still have 38 days to think for more! hahaha! I know my kuya hopes I would not add more! hahaha!

And lastly I want a warmer Christmas with family, friends (I love you all!) and .... never mind :)

Cakes for my Grand Aunt

Last July 13 my Grand Aunt Anatalia celebrated her 70th birthday. I got a chance to bake the cake that are going to be used for her Birthday Wishes to be facilitated by her children.

I got the inspiration from my good friend Kathy's wedding cake. I made seven 5" round carrot cakes. I topped it with baby pink boiled icing and I used orange slices, kiwi slices and grapes for decoration. And for my finishing touches I tie a green organza ribbon around the cake. Viola! satellite cakes! I also used an old cake stand from my inaanak's birthday, just wrapped it with pink and green Japanese Paper. Noticed the candles that I used? I told my mom to buy birthday candles but she forgot so I had no choice but to use those slightly big candles lol!

Unfortunately I wasn't able to go the birthday celebration because I had my migraine attack, I just finished the cake then I really went to sleep after. But she understands, just like any Granny.
