WOTD: November 06, 2011

So this is my first WOTD for the month of November. Every sunday, I make sure that I hear mass at 9:00am. That's how devoted I am to the 3rd commandment. My sunday won't be complete without going to church first.
 


We were in a hurry because I don't want to be late, so I decided to wear a simple outfit.

Dadi's 23rd Birthday Celebration

My husband's birthday is on the 31st of October. I've been thinking of things to give him, but I also decided to give him a cake instead. So I contacted Rose Anne of Boo's Recipe to make my desired cake. Since my husband's favorite chocolate is kitkat, why not put it in the cake right?

I also asked that she put chocolate covered strawberries on top.

And then, I put a ribbon to support the kit kat chocolates.

I love everything unique. I just don't like copying others ideas that's why I look and research for my own ideas in advance.

She totally did it. She brought to life the cake in my idea. How lovely! Thanks bubu! 

Dadi and Cara.

The candle we used was from my estrel's cake.

So many kit kats!

So later that night, my husband invited his friends and I invited some of mine for a little celebration. A night of eating,drinking and catching up with each other's lives. For this, I wore a black dress from People Are People.

My friends Rician and Lhexi.

With Rician, Lhexi, Alvin, Nars, Ronel and Kuya Ramon. Mostly, my circle includes people from the pageant that I joined.

With nicko this time.

With my husband's friends.

The guys are my husband's friends since highschool.

It was such a fun night! I think they went home at around 2pm. I  didn't drink that much, but my husband was so drunk that he fell asleep on the sofa. haha. :)

To Dine For: ESTREL'S CARAMEL CAKES PART 2

My husband asked me what gift should he give me on our anniversary. I didn't wish for material things since I am the kind of person who wants to shop by myself. I love to shop alone because I can concentrate and I can really choose the item that I want.

So I asked him to buy me an Estrel's cake. Of course, this time the roses are shades of purple.

Good things they managed to squeeze in the long personalized message.

Message.

Message.

Top view of the cake. I just hate to eat Estrel's cakes. They are so beautifully made!

Since it's our anniversary, I requested for a heart shaped cake.

Back view of the cake.See the details on the bottom of the cake? Amazing.

A darker picture so that you can see the difference of the colors.

If you can differentiate the colors, there are 3 colors of roses. Purple, Light Purple and Dark Purple.

So, if ever you'll give me a gift, I would be happy if you will give me an Estrel's cake instead of make-ups. :)

Event: 1st Year Wedding Anniversary Celebration

So for our 1st wedding anniversary, we decided to eat at yakimix. My husband made an early reservation since our anniversary will fall on a sunday.

Upon entering yakimix, Cara was so vibrant and cheerful, that two of the servers of yakimix noticed her and gave her some candies.

This is their price list as of 2011.

Cara is so photogenic! No biases here! She already knows how to pose for the camera.

Dadi's first round. I reminded him not to get all the food offerings so that he can save his appetite for the grilling part.

My first plate.

I just got 2 tempuras, sashimis, sushis with raw salmon and tuna, salad and chicken. I love raw salmon! It melts in your mouth!

Time for grilling.

1st plate of ready to grill foods.

We got cured and marinated meats and seafoods.

I love shrimps!

After this first plate, I got 2 more plates that contains only bacon.

I had two plates of pure bacon. Yes, I love bacon. 

My dipping sauces. What can you expect? Vinegars and spicy sauce.

I just have to say that the newly opened SM North Yakimix branch was very clean and well ventilated! It was spacious and the interiors are nice. The staff as usual, are very eager to help and very attentive. Their comfort room is also clean. For dessert, I just got the chocolate cake, since I don't like yakimix's dessert range to be honest.
