Wedding Essentials: Dream Weddings 2008


Even if I had a bad case of food poisoning yesterday - I still managed to attend the launch party of Wedding Essentials' Dream Weddings 2008. I made sure to attend even if I was felling a bit queasy, after all - I owe a lot to Marbee for my WE feature! :)

The party was hosted by Issa Litton - the cover girl of the latest issue. I just have to say that she did a great job hosting! She was a natural!

The highlight of the night was the cover - can you believe they produced 30 different covers?! Wow!! That's for the 30 couples that shared their love/wedding stories to Wedding Essentials!! It was fantastic! Imagine if you were one of the 30?! Your wedding pic is actually ON A MAGAZINE!! That is something you will forever treasure!! :)

To my HS classmate Shaps - congrats on the feature and the cover!! :) (Loved your picture!!)

Another highlight was - well, again (for the Nth time) my Panget won something (lucky charm - ME!!) - a full board overnight stay at Discovery Country Suites in Tagaytay! Hahahaha... What luck! His card was picked out from a bowl! :) Cool right?! Love it!!

I have to say - Wedding Essentials has always been on top of their game. Being the best among the rest - they've just up-ped the notch again!!

Congrats Marbee and Cynthia! :)

P.S. Pictures to follow :)

    Congratulations to Panget! That's a good prize. I've never been there but I've had the chance to research it a bit. The place looks good and the usual rates are high end.

ANSON SUPERMARKET - Grocery delivery!!

Sharing is caring, so we can't keep it a secret any longer.  THIS is where we get out groceries!  Well, Anson Supermarket has been where we have been purchasing all of our kids' diapers!  From Kailee to Connor to Shobe!  Yes, yes, yes! A week into the lockdown, it just occurred to us that we can get our groceries from them - but then we thought, we didn't want to force them to do it - after all it's a different time now.  But when we asked and they said yes, it was like we won the lottery.  We sent out our list - a very VERY SPECIFIC list and voila after a day or two (we weren't in a rush) they told us to schedule a pick up.  Please remember that I am sharing this with you guys because I believe so much in the saying 'sharing is caring'.  Please be mindful of your language and respect those who will call or message you about your orders.  Also note that some items might NOT be available - so manage your expectations.   They're a ...

#CookingQuest: Winter Melon Soup ala Didi #EnhancedCommunity

One of the things that gets ooohs and aaaahs in a chinese restaurant is the #WinterMelonSoup.   You may ask why?  Well because with this soup, restaurants use the winter melon itself as a huge bowl to serve the soup!  It's a sight to see as you'll be amazed how they were able to pull it off.  You'll see the whole winter melon, and then suddenly they're take out the top part and when you peek in, the soup is inside together with meat bits and other veggies!  My mom has tried it at home, and I remember her being nervous that the winter melon doesn't break apart, kunde sira ang presentation! So during this #EnhancedCommunityQuarantine, I chanced upon Theo's Farm that they have winter melon, so I ordered.  When I saw it - I knew I wouldn't be able to pull off the carving and serving the winter melon.  It actually made the preparation easier.  I had to ask my mom, and she told me to steam the winter melon to soften it.  Honestly, I don't t...

Learning Mandarin, what method is best?

I studied in a sort of Chinese school for 13 years. So that "sort of' means, I SHOULD know how to speak basic Mandarin right? NOT QUITE!! I studied in a Chinese school where we only get less than an hour of Chinese class daily.  When you think about it, well - one hour a day, should be okay - but the problem is, at that time - it was pure memorization.  The books that we used, were those traditional books that I honestly have no idea what is written in them.  I see Chinese characters and they're just that - Chinese characters without meaning, nothing.  It was not practical if you ask me.  The words we were taught were not used in everyday conversation It was only during my 3rd or 4th year of high school that I realized how important knowing how to speak Chinese was.  It was during a trip to the Chinese border from Hong Kong that while I was going around the mall, I was having a hard time communicating with people who looked like me.  I wa...
