I'm ready to take off!
This even reminded me so much of my bonding time with my son!  We always talk about space, planets and anything related to the Solar System, Milky Way, you name it, we've discussed it!

I had a time off to attend the Big Bang Launch of The Benefit Bad Gal Bang Mascara!  Are you ready to join me into this lash-lafying adventure (seriously, I can have my own dictionary!) :P

AMW Visits Zojirushi Flagship Store



Let me tell you something about my childhood....don't worry it's not going to be a novel!  
I'm the youngest in the family so whatever I use are hand-me-downs from my sister or brothers!  I am not really into material things but one thing I really asked from my parents is a cute lunchbox OR a cute stainless steel tumbler to keep my water cold all throughout the day?

I didn't have any of those and I cried bucket of tears during summer!  So imagine the happiness (and memories) I had upon entering the first Zojirushi Flagship Store at Promenade Greenhills?



Zojirushi is the leading Japanese home and kitchen lifestyle brand which has been a partner of many households all over the world.  Designed with a simple yet powerful slogan in mind: Inspirations from Everyday Life, this global Japanese brand known for quality products since 1918, has established itself as a top manufacturer of vacuum bottles and has continued to leverage the latest technologies to create a constant stream of leading-edge products that make life more comfortable and convenient.  Although much has changed and lifestyles have become more varied, this brand’s philosophy of  “creating a quality of life” continues to be reflected in its products and services.

Avon Pink for Every Pinay Like You and Me





So I haven't worn pink lipsticks in AGES!
But since March is International Women's Day, I knew we had to celebrate in a way that we celebrate womanhood!  What's the best way to do so?  Where any shade of pink lipsticks because pink represent confidence, energy and femininity.



Avon recently came up with different pinks shades under the Avon True Perfectly Matte Lipsticks and Avon True Ultra Color lines. 

I went ahead and used Avon True Perfectly Matte Lipsticks because matte is still big in this season and guess what, Avon actually passed the dehydrated lips test!  Their matte lipsticks work for me!

Birthday Food Trip at: Uma Uma, S Maison




Whenever we celebrate birthdays, I am sure to gain a couple of pounds because there will always be celebration for --- my family, husband's family, friends and more friends!

And my way of celebration will always be in a restaurant stuffing our faces with great food because that is how I celebrate since birth! :P


Since my birthday falls on a weekday and my hardworking hubby usually stays in the office until late, I've decided to look for a restaurant nearby (which is SM MOA) but I wanted a place less crowded.

S Maison is the answer!  Thankfully, there are more restaurants to choose from and I went for Uma Uma Ramen!


There were only a few items on menu but what the heck?  I LOVE my ramen and I call it my comfort food!  So what's the best place to eat but a restaurant that specializes on Ramen!

Thankfully, for non-Ramen eaters (are you from outer space? :P), they also serve 2-3 rice dishes which is equally good and worthwhile!  No wonder for a boring weeknight, the place was actually packed!

One-Bite Gyozas
Php140.00
Mini gyoza designed for eating in just one bite, especially for women so as not to ruin their lipstick. The gyoza is tasty but sticks together.

They mean it when they say ONE-BITE.  I can even stuff 2 of these at a time! :P  But so far, this doesn't fail!  I've had gyozas so many times in my lifetime and when I say they are good, they are good!
