Souvenirs / Des Souvenirs

I bought some souvenir for the baptismal of Bibingclara. At first, i am thinking to buy something little cutie thing with a touch of paris but choosing a particular thing needs a lot of time. Since, i bought the souvenirs the day before our departure (good thing nakahabol sa sale hehehe) i found little cutie nice color boxes and hooks from Potiron
                                   It's a rectangular box for milk/baby wisdom tooth and metal hooks
I just bought limited pieces because i thought of our luggages and the cutie boxes are fragile (they were made of marble) plus the kilo's of metal hooks 
  
Metal hooks - can be use/put on the wall when hanging bags/belt
Rectangular boxes - can be use as display on the table or it can be a little jewelry box

Best buy! because i bought it for only 1 euro each means i just spent like 60 in peso. I just added personalized stickers that my sister made for her inaanak! Thanks Ninang :)

Kesong Puti / Fromage Blanc

I am a fan of Cheese! J'adoreee!!! Every kind, any form or whatever odor it has. I include myself lucky because i had the chance to taste different kinds of cheese (they are widely available in the supermarket) and being a spouse to a french, i have got supportive partner of eating them because Claudebiko loves cheeses too :)
 When we were in Manila, my father bought Kesong puti for Claudebiko. It was actually the 2nd time that my father offered keso to him. He liked it! He can eat it alone. For me, it's best with Pandesal :)

Balikbayan Box / Un Colis

When sending our package to Philippines, we always rely on Manzen the type of boxes they have is really satisfying to our needs. Solid, dependable, you can put what ever you wish. I usually send packages twice a year. Last year December 2009, our balikbayan box has arrived before us.
                                            XL box 65x50x65 95 kg. maxi 109 euros (sea price)
 Another good thing about Manzen, they took photos when our love ones receive the box. I strictly told them  not to open when they get it
Me, opening the box (i had a hard pawisan time cutting the packing tapes) Claudebiko packed it well :)
 
Voila! Mes pamangkins modeling and they look satisfied for what they have got
                                      3 Bodybags that i bought in the thrifty shop (kuripot talaga ni Tita!)

Almusal / Pétit Déjeuner

First Morning, We were at my sister's house in Valenzuela. I haven't had enough sleep though im very tired because of the long travel. I was still awake till 4 am. had a big headache too. When i went down to check what we will be having for breakfast my sister Mariz already in the kitchen. We had "Pandesal"  it was still warm freshly baked hmmm.. and she prepared hotdogs/egg omelette ready on the table.
I had a nice and mega kwentuhan almusal time with my sister that morning. I didn't notice how many Pandesal i finished. What i remember is Masarap talaga! Never mind the diet huh :)

Manila / Manille

I made my promise broken i haven't able to blog everyday. Yesterday night i fall asleep with Bibingclara i am at  all times with her specially when she's sick. She's  feelin better now and in real she's at her nursery. Now, i have my little time to post our arrival in Manila. Having travelling with a kid is not so easy like what we had experience with Bibingclara (its her first time) very long travel Paris-Amsterdam-Manila almost 16 hours. Our flight was 2 hours delayed and we waited too long..... and lastly, we've got a small plane :(
No Chance! from the airport Bibingclara doesn't want to stay in one place she wanted to walk and run all along the airport phew hard time! really hard time! I became loka loka even Claudebiko doesn't know what to do with her daughter. Well, that's life! (C'est la vie)
            She was staring at me and thinking what more pasaway thing she can be able to do inside the plane
I was so happy looking at the window that we are nearly arrive
 
Hay!At last! (Enfin!) We are now in Manila I can see all the Big Billboards everywhere 

Manila! Manila i am coming back home to manila....lalalala la la la la
Kumanta ba? na carried away eh hehehe :)

I didn't had the chance to put all my pending entries during our holiday in philippines but i promise to make an update each day little by little :) i didn't had actually the time these past few days why? coz i get so busy     1.  When we arrived at home the next day Bibingclara get sick     2. My friend Edvie was here to have a 5 day tour with her family     3. I have been unpacking all our suitcases for ages and luckily i succeed to arrange all my mess. Yun lang naman! Hayyy Now, back to normal. I am hoping that Bibingclara will feel better and better coz she is still coughing  at this moment! istorbo di sya makatulog.
This photo was taken before Bibingclara get sick. We were in a hurry to go to the supermarket to do our food shopping kasi naman walang makain hehehe our fridge is empty and our electricity was off during 4 weeks. I missed cooking/baking kaya lang i haven't still have my new oven. Next time will post food entries during our food trips in philippines.
