    Horrible Experience at Smart Center SM Sta. Mesa

    Just had a horrible experience at Smart Center at SM City Sta. Mesa To those who don’t know what a Smart money card is – it’s like an ATM/ electronic cash/ credit card product that can be used to send/receive money, make payments, etc.. My Smart money card is about to expire on Sept. 2014…

    Got my Sony Cybershot DSC-W830 at a discount!

    My old Sony Cybershot DSC-W120’s mode dial had been giving me problems for a few years. I’ve had it since oh, 2008? Everything else in that camera is still working great, but the loose mode dial was something that had really annoyed me and I ended up not using the camera as much. What is…


  • Beauty and the Beast 2012, Season 2 Episode 9

    Beauty and the Beast 2012, Season 2 Episode 9

    I’ve been watching this series since it started. It didn’t really catch my attention all that much. There was something missing. I don’t know. I think it was because there was no chemistry between the two leads and also because The Beast is a wuss. By that, I mean, he is indecisive and waffles between…

    Kurobuta Tonkatsu at Yabu

    The Kurobuta was superb! DB and I had dinner at Yabu Megamall last week. I had read about this place serving Kurobuta pork. If you didn’t know, Kurobuta is to pork what Wagyu is to beef. I simply had to try it. Since the specialty of the house is their Kurobuta, that was what I…


  • My 3rd Week on Smart Freedom Plan – My Experience

    My 3rd Week on Smart Freedom Plan – My Experience

    Three weeks ago, I took the plunge and got myself a Freedom Plan from Smart despite my misgivings about getting a postpaid plan. I reasoned that there was no lock-in period and I can always unsubscribe if I didn’t like the service. There is also a limit of P600/month to ensure that your bill won’t…


  • Smart’s New Freedom Plan

    Smart’s New Freedom Plan

    I was driving home from an errand and happened to be listening to Chico and Delamar (I don’t usually listen to them) when they plugged Smart’s new Freedom Plan. When I got home, I immediately googled it and was happy that finally, FINALLY, a telco made a plan that made sense to consumers. The best…

    Kitchen Boss’s Cheesecake – Simply Out of This World Delicious!

    I had some cream cheese bought at Buy 1 Take 1 taking up space in the fridge for some time, and the other night, I chanced upon a video of Buddy Valastro making cheesecake. He made it seem so easy! So since I was running out of ideas about what to do with my cream cheese,…


  • Deep Fried Oyster Mushrooms

    Deep Fried Oyster Mushrooms

    I got these mushrooms for only P30 a pack (the usual rectangular, half-bond-sized flat styro wrapped with cling film) from the Agora Public Market in San Juan. The pictures don’t show all the mushrooms because I already nibbled on some. I need to taste them, of course! I remember going to a Food Expo at…
