MILK Bags

Mabuhay!

The "It" bag is now the "Was" bag.
The "MILK" bag is what's hot!

What is MILK? 
Money, I.D., lipstick, keys — kyooot!

What is pain?
Carrying a big bag with contents of the entire refrigerator — alam mo yan!

What is new:

The new, slimmed-down Proenza Shouler PS1 wallet

Just "Whaaat?":
“Sometimes an evening clutch feels too fancy, but a day bag feels too normal,” says Lazaro Hernandez, who, with Jack McCollough, designed the sleek, happy medium. Their wallet happens to be exceptionally functional too—even the credit card slots are specially lined to protect the magnetism of the stripe. “Nothing was left to chance,” Hernandez says.

You know what?
I want.

Gadget: Bold change

Mabuhay!

My BlackBerry trackpad has suddenly decided to have a mind of it's own. In the last month, the pad has become extra sensitive — it sends unfinished tweets, duplicate tweets, and sometimes, Twitpics with no captions on it's own! Very 'Dalaw'.

Sadly, there are no BlackBerry service centers in Manila.  Haay!
All I can do is to wait for Globe to bring in the newest Blackberry Bold 9780.
I'm excited!

New! BlackBerry Bold 9780
White phones remind me of "Orocan".

I've been stalking Crackberry and other demo sites researching on the new features of the new BB 9780.
In a nutshell:
  • Sleeker design (no more chrome on the sides) 
  • More memory and it runs on the BlackBerry 6 platform.
  • Better camera. It has a 5-megapixel camera with autofocus, LED flash, digital zoom and video recording with scene modes (auto, face detection, portrait, sports, landscape, party, close-up, snow, beach, night and text options) — a blogger's and Twitpicker's (Yes, I will copyright this word) dream.




"I love what I do" that's why I want this phone!
 


Shoppingero/shoppingera, what phone feature is most important to you?

New: Pinoy breakfast joint

Mabuhay!

So, I've been spending a lot of time these days at the park. Sometimes, I bring the whole family with me and we try to get as much activities as our post-holiday battered bodies will allow.

Meet our new friends, (from left) Gem and Spunky. So cute!

Playing at the park is fun.
Tiring.
Makes me eat like a cow.
Eat a cow.
Yes! I want beef.
I smell meat...

BFast is Chef Laudico's new all day Pinoy fusion breakfast joint.

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.
Pork tocino
Angusino
Peppered to perfection!
Tapangus
Chicken tocino
The tomato salsa was my favorite sidings. The taste was refreshing and the texture adds a bit of crunch to every bite!
My husband likes American-style breakfast hence, the side orders. His comment: "I wish they served the bacon hot and crispy." I have to agree, the bacon was served cold and quite chewy *thumbs down*. I hope they can improve on this.
BFast's cup of Joe uses local coffee beans. Thumbs up!
Chef Laudico uses Filipino-made products for his resto. Pinoy pride rocks!

I recommend the Angusino and Tapangus. Both dishes are savory, juicy, and have generous portions, but not as generous as the rice they serve — "construction worker" portions! No one at our table could finish it. Although, the rice was perfectly cooked — light and fluffy!
I have yet to try one of their desserts. The Suman Panacotta sounds interesting. Next time.

Tip: Ordering at BFast is cafeteria style. You order at the cashier and the bus boys (not waiters) deliver the food and clear out the tables. It's self-service so I don't suggest asking too much help from them. Don't forget to leave a tip. The BFast staff are accommodating anyway.

Bravo, chef!

Personally, I don't like eating on plastic plates. I find that it cheapens the whole dining experience, but this is one time I'm going to let it slide as they use Preserve eco-friendly plates and tumblers. According to one of the staff, the recyclable dinnerware are cleaned using a dishwasher. He explained that the steam from the dishwasher and the use of eco-friendly cleaning solutions get rid of the grime and smell that's usually associated with plastic dinnerware.

Shoppingero/shoppingera, what is your favorite "silog" (tocilog. longsilog, tapsilog, etc.) and from where?
