Old Shocking News.
I was rummaging the old newspapers when this article caught my snake like eyes! I get the shivers when I try to imagine 44 lizards inside my pants. What in the world was this man thinking???

Calling All Oessie! (Part 2)
A few things that caught my attention were this chocolate bar with "I LOVE YOU" on it. With Valentine's being so near, I asked AG to give me one and lo and behold, this funny packaging holds the creamiest Belgian chocolate with hazelnut! It's not cheap (P115) but splurging on a bar of chocolate is allowed once in a while.
A shot of schnapps which all the whiteys took before leaving was fun. They were dancing and singing this song and then down the drink went. Since it is a farewell shot, it is free!!
The coasters! As we got settled and were talking amongst each other, it always felt like someone was staring at us.
These are flowers that the kids picked up from the ground. I have never seen anything like it and it made really cute shapes! Love the color too!
And now, the speise (food)!
So after Chateau Hestia, we went to Cliffhouse to have dessert. We met up with CJ and Lucille who couldn't make it to our early dinner at the Chateau. We talked about how beautiful the place was and so after dessert, we went back to the Austrian restaurant for more beers and wine! AG was more than happy to give them a tour.
If we loved it during the day, we equally love it at night when the stars were all so close and bright. The weather was even more perfect and the ambiance was uber romantic.
Johannes and wife, Maria, were more than happy to see us even stating that it is the first time it has happened. A return customer in less than 3 hours.
CJ loved the beer so much that he bought the whole keg! Put it in the car and told us to take care of it as if it were his newborn!
Austrian owner of Chateau Hestia Johannes Zehethofer.
CHEERS to good friends, family and the Austrians!
Open Wednesdays to Sundays

My Mumsy.
When Ms. Cynthia Subijano handed me a copy of the latest issue of MEGA, I was close to tears when I saw mom's photo. It was taken only a year and a half ago if I am not mistaken. She was so full of life and smiled so brightly.
As I type this, tears are already ruining my freshly applied make up but I don't care. People say it is not healthy to keep it in. I miss her so much. My dad seems fine but I can feel his loneliness which he tries to hide by landscaping, doing the market/grocery and watching violent television shows which my mom never allowed in the house.
It's still so ouchy in the heart. With a single thought of her, a shot of pain goes through my vein on my right hand all the way to my heart. I don't know why but that's how it physically feels. Sometimes I think I am having a seizure but after a minute or two, I realize that it is only the pain in my heart of losing mom that's causing me distress.
I find myself always saying, "HAAAYYY NAKKKKOOOO MOM....Why did you leave us so early?"
Thank you MEGA, Ms Cynthia and Cai Subijano for this tribute.

Your home in Austria has been built in Tagaytay.
Thanks to friends Christian and Irene, we were able to find a very quaint, beautiful and amazing restaurant in Tagaytay last weekend called Chateau Hestia. Only minutes away from the ridge, this place still carries the fresh air and nice green surroundings that we enjoy in Tagaytay so much.
This particular weekend, they were serving assorted wines from Austria by the glass (P90.00), set menu and Austrian beer.
Guess who had the time of his life??
By the garden, our tables were set next to a small playground where the kids went crazy over. The weather was perfect and the service was really great. Owner Johannes Zehethofer served the guests himself and entertained when he could. He is a very gracious man.
AG felt truly at home and never wanted to leave.

Buon Giorno!
Was in Tagaytay last weekend and had a real blast!! Of course, being with the family always is. We got there very early but we were hungry like wolves. I have always liked Cliffhouse by the ridge so we went there and dined in Buon Giorno.
It was relatively good. I mean, what's so hard about tapsilog, salad and tocilog right? But I wouldn't order the adobo flakes. It was tough and hard to chew and swallow. Everything else was good and easy on the pocket.
After breakfast, we strolled over to Fruits and Ice Cream and I got a Caramel Landslide. One scoop butterscotch, one scoop caramel and 4 kinds of nuts with loads of caramel sauce. ME LIKEY!!!

iHate!
I hate this song. I don't know why all the children in this country love it, has memorized the dance steps while singing the stupid song. I mean, my 3 year old niece dances to it over and over and over again....I mean, really, YAYA, please naman!
Anyway, for a good 2 weeks, I haven't heard it or even thought about this horrible song and life was good.
This morning, I walk in the Pen lobby and first sing I see when I got out of the car...
HOLY MOLY! GOD help me! Kris is a friend of mine but I am sorry, this Noybody Noybody But You vest is just a little too much for me to handle. Plus the yellow bag, shoes and watch. Sure, it shows how much this woman believes and supports Noynoy and I have a number of friends who are backing him up but to use this song as his campaign jingle...I want to faint.
