I laud green designs like these and I hope a lot of developers will follow suit.

The community of these houses can be found where the koi feeding happened.

Wedding in the Family

Several people I know has altar dates this year and next year too. In fact, we have a family wedding in less than a month.

I’m sure my BIL had a difficult time choosing the best one among so many choices for diamond engagement rings, just as he and his would-be wife spent a lot of time choosing the textile, styles and color coordination of the formal wear their entourage would be wearing.

They even had family members fit new clothes just for the occasion. Hmmm… maybe because they know I don’t have decent and acceptable clothes to wear, haha.

My two younger children are included in the entourage, the son as a ring bearer and the younger daughter as a flower girl.

Both are excited of course even if they feel a bit bad they have to miss a school day for this affair.

Hair Brush for Thin Hair

Dealing with hair loss is not easy, especially since one used to have thick hair.

Hubby’s hair loss has been a slow process at first but somewhere along the way, it seems that it accelerated. We have been on a lookout for a hair loss shampoo to somehow put a brake on the process, not that we can stop this even if we want to.

I recently got him a new hair brush/comb:

Perfect for his thinning hair since the ones with big bristles feel like its clutching on thin air 😀 Sorry hubby.

Palamantasan ng Sarap, Sustaniya at Saya Contest Winners

The Palamantasan ng Sarap, Sustansya at Saya contest in Facebook has been closed last Thursday.

BUT I can’t announce the winners just yet.

I have to say there were a LOT of participants who did not follow the rules.

One rule, specifically rule #5 was:

5.       ONE PERSON ONE ENTRY ONLY

That means… wait for further announcements.
