twenty-first

I honestly don’t know how to start this very late 8-post, as it had been a month or so since the last time I posted something here. I’m somewhat ashamed of myself because I can’t even write posts on time. April was such a busy month, I had chances of writing this post earlier but then I realized that my iMac doesn’t have any internal card reader. Well anyway, our twenty-first month fell on Easter Sunday. We heard mass with my family at Greenhills Chapel and had dinner with them at House of Minis at Shoppesville. We went home after dinner.

Bb and I originally planned to spend our 8-day at Bonifacio High Street days earlier so when we went home after dinner that day, Bb and I decided to go with our original 8-day plan. We went to Bonifacio High Street and walked around. When we got there, there was an ongoing mini Easter concert, there are Holy Week related installations all over, and of course, so many people walking with dogs! Since Bb and I ate dinner already, we just had Happy Lemon’s Cocoa with Rock Salt and Cheese. Yup, Cocoa with RSC again! It’s like a monthly thing that we have Cocoa with RSC during those times and have been getting that drink consecutively every 8-day!

Bb and I also  visited the newly opened portion in BHS. Our observation was: the landscape was very pretty. Too bad we had dinner already or else we could have tried a new restaurant for dinner and I could have posted more food photos in this post too.. well, maybe next time. Bb and I visited our usual shops/stores in BHS including Topshop, Muji, the different furniture stores, and Fully-booked!

When we noticed that the stored are closing already, we decided to go home. After reaching our house, we went out again to have a little dessert at Jack’s Loft Wilson. I had my usual Cheesecake with strawberry topping (sorry no photo!). After dessert, we went home and rested.

Belated happy birthday Toffeenut

March is domain renewal month for me. I usually pay my domains on time but if you happen to visit this blog some time this month and found that it was down or it needs to be renewed it’s because I wasn’t able to pay on time. I was too busy to drop by the nearest bank late Feb or early March so my payment got late nonetheless, I was able to renew it.

Toffeenut.org is now 4 years old :]. As a gift to my blog, I made a new theme for it! It has been using the Road sign and song lyrics theme for… I don’t know.. 2 years already. Plus, I’ve made the white wood pattern and color theme as my default background for my previous Tumblr and Twitter, so it feels overused already. I think it’s time for my blog to have a make over or something. Hahaha!

My new theme basically has the same structure as my previous themes, I like it this way because it looks neat enough and I’m lazy to code as always. I’m still working on my pages, the links and archive index pages are ok already but I’ll still make a decent about page and a custom 404 error page. I’m still thinking whether I’d add another page or something… I still don’t know. I added icons too! I made them! Well sort of made them because I couldn’t find a set of social media icons I wanted so I resorted to having customized icons instead so that they go along with my overall theme, wasn’t able to make them look canvas-y though because they’re too small it might not even look canvas-y.

Should I make a freebies page or something? :]

Happy Twentieth!

Again, just like my previous post, my apologies if I haven’t been updating my blog. I’m just really busy with work lately… as a matter of fact, I’ve been too busy that my domain and hosting payments were late and all 3 domains I have went down for couple of days. I’ll make it up as soon as the Q1 workload subsides. I got so many pending updates and blog entries lined up already but above all things, how can I forget to write about our 8 day? :]

Bb and I celebrated our 20th in our new work. It’s our first 8th in our new company but our celebration was pretty much like before where we work first and when everything is done, we go out and have dinner together. New office area means new places to explore where to eat! Luckily, we are a few blocks away from Kapitolyo, Pasig and it has a number of restaurants we can try like the place where we had our 8th dinner for our twentieth month: Charlie’s Grind and Grill!

First of all, I’m sorry for partially neglecting to write anything for the past few weeks! I know I’ve been neglecting to write here as well as on my tumblr. I’ve been so busy lately, first was spending my last week of vacation as a freelancer and bumming around our house and second is that, I started working again — which I’ll post on a separate entry after this one. My pending posts are filing up already. I have like 3 pending posts as of now, 1 personal and 2 food/milktea posts. But for now, here’s our nineteenth month entry! :]

Happy Lemon: Rock salt series

I’ve been procrastinating to post this for weeks now. This entry is one of the supposedly 2011 posts I left pending when the holiday busyness striked and my post-holidays laziness and rushy concert collateral racket I had during the first week of January. Well, I finally decided to write this one since I’m bored and I got nothing to do today.

As their tagline states “The World’s Yummiest Drinks!“, I could say that Happy Lemon does not disappoint. I’ve been curious about Happy Lemon ever since it opened it’s first branch at Promenade, Greenhills. Sadly I didn’t get the chance to try it earlier. I planned to try it before but the store somewhat gave me an impression that they have expensive drinks… or at least their price range is at par with Starbucks’. Yes, I somewhat felt intimidated. I know that was kind of silly of me but, now I know that I was wrong.

Serenitea: free jumbo upsize

Last December 19, Serenitea celebrated their 3rd Anniversary (sorry if this is sort of delayed blogging!). As a sort of gift and promo to their customers, they gave everyone free upsize! Yes, jumbo Serenitea cups! It’s really an awesome treat for me and bb. We’ve been waiting for this Jumbo upsize thing for a week or so and we really saved some tummy space for it too!

Christmas Card 2011! Adobe Illustrator CS3

Merry Christmas everyone!

So every year I make this Christmas cards I post on my blogs every Christmas. Aside from collecting Starbucks planner stickers this is another Christmas tradition I make and try my best to accomplish each year. I hope everyone is well and warm. I also wish I’d get a kiss and a hug from my bb, that would be really awesome. Happy Holidays.

Happy birthday Jesus! :]

Btw, sorry about the rush. I know it’s not the best Christmas card I’ve made and I feel like I’m getting sloppier every year instead of creating better ones.

Happy seventeenth month!

8 post for this month! Yup, sorry for the late crosspost.

It was the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, I attended the 6pm mass at Megamall despite the crowd. I didn’t know he was waiting for me outside of the chapel already by the time the mass ended. Since we have so little money left, we agreed to just celebrate when we are able to…

We tried to window shop but there’s just this feeling of anticipation to go home. We’re both tired on our respective cases, as he was tired from work while I was tired of walking and standing for hours. So despite the pouring rain we decided to look for a cab that will bring us home.

We went home, rested for a bit, and had dinner. After that, we went upstairs to surf the net, play games and stuff. He checked the history of my my browser and got curious about this page with a link to an Online Chibi Maker. I got it from Mei’s blog post. He got interested and said that he’ll create a chibi character that looks like me and so he did. After creating a chibi me I created a chibi him too that turned out to look so much like him! It’s so cute!

So it’s basically this is our only 8-photo for this month. :)

 

Happy sixteenth month!

Well, sorry I forgot to crosspost this last month… I was supposed to but after my comeback post last October I went on a short hiatus again and skipped to my birthday already so I wasn’t able to post this here anymore. And tonight my boyfriend asked me why I stopped posting 8 posts here. I wasn’t I didn’t I just forgot to repost them here so now I’m crossposting these 8 posts here.
