On Peep Toes and Prints


Everyone has weird pet peeves and I just encountered two of mine in the MRT yesterday.

Why do women with long toes insist on wearing peep toe shoes when they know that their toes will go way beyond the space provided? This just bothers me! Sounds crazy but it really doesn’t look nice and defeats the purpose of ‘feet sexy’ heels. What I can suggest is that they buy gel pads that they can put in their heels so their feet won’t slide to the front. Really girls, please.

Another one I saw was a girl wearing too much print! I must admit, there were times when I am guilty of this too but the one I saw yesterday takes the cake. Imagine this – floral top, purple skirt, leopard-printed stocking and snake-printed heels. Doesn’t that just make your skin crawl? Haha. Individually, I would have liked the pieces – okay, not the shoes because they looked chunky – but I would have bought the stockings myself if I saw them in the store. It was a print explosion!



I went to Orchard again last night because I wanted to check if Prologue had the Asian Chic Series. Obviously, it’s chic lit. The authors vary per book, much like the Cosmo Books printed in Manila but way thicker. Unfortunately, all the books were out of stock. As much as I love Borders, their books costs S$3-4 more compared to Prologue so I make it a point to check the latter first before buying anything. Just something nice to know, the Asian Chic Series currently has four books in tow. Three of which were written by Pinays. Isn’t that great? :D

Later, I’d be going to Ayn’s office because I want to see a studio apartment for a friend who wants to work here; and if ever my sister decides to move to Singapore. It looks small but respectable in the pictures. I just hope it isn’t too small or Cla and I might suffocate each other! Haha.

It’s Friday tomorrow! I can’t wait for the weekend. <3

Hospital Cheat Sheets

Hello mommies! Sorry I have been busy trying to balance spending quality time with my baby, the pastry shop @joaniescupcakes and our newly launched online store, Petit Bébé PH.  Check out our IG and FB pages if you have time, @petitbebeph. 😍 Anyway, a lot as been asking about the hospital lists that I made for my delivery so here they are! As some of you might know, I am quite OC about paperwork and I have no pain tolerance so I really wanted to make sure that my doctors did not miss anything about my medical history. I was also confined 3x during my pregnancy. This is why I wanted to make sure that my list is detailed so we could avoid mistakes. Information Sheet This is the information sheet that I made. I consulted my OB prior to my delivery about the things that will be asked during check in/ labor. The text is RED are things you need to fill out on the way to the hospital as you might not have enough time to print them when you start contracting. Birth Plan ...

Eating at Home

Reg and I have been trying to lose weight to better control our sugar intake. We ate out a lot when I was still pregnant so he gained "pregnancy pounds" as well. Haha! I have been going to the supermarket to buy 3 weeks worth of dinners the past 2 months and I have been making weekly menu plans to help us achieve our goal. Honestly, I have always felt lazy to do this menu because the meats available at the grocery varies every week. I tend to buy what looks good so I can't stick to 1 set of menu come marketing time. First, let's start with the supermarket. We are closer to Unimart Greenhills but I feel that prices there are higher and there are times when their stock delivery is delayed. I always end up not being able to buy everything that I need. In order for this menu planning to succeed, I now go to my trusty Landmark Supermarket in Trinoma. I used to shop there when I was still single but I stopped going when I moved after getting married because I hated the ...

Hospital Packing List

I’m an OC person when it comes to packing. I love checklists! When I was at home on bedrest, I had plenty of time to get ready for the delivery. I didn’t want to go to the hospital with incomplete things so I started researching online and mommy blogs on what to pack when D-day comes. I made this list 3 months before my due date. I was paranoid because I had 3 hospital confinements during my pregnancy. I wanted to make sure that everything was ready.  When my OB told me that I was being induced on my 37th week, I made sure I ran through everything with my husband and our nanny. I have very low pain tolerance so I didn’t want them asking me where everything was when I was recovering! 😂 I divided the list into 3 categories: Mommy Daddy Baby I had to make sure my husband had an extra pillow and blanket so his back wouldn’t hurt from sleeping in the couch. I was expecting us to stay longer than normal as I was being induced. He needed to be in tiptop shape for our bab...
