Pig Out

Last night the Krause couple, Ulli and Marianne visited us again at home. We then have dinner at a suburban-chic style Pig Out restaurant and enjoy not just the food but the green surroundings as well. Tucked in the pleasant and bright Nuvali commercial and residential district in Sta. Rosa, Laguna, Pig Out restaurant is a a family grill house that serves heavy comfort food perfect for young and old alike.
Specialties include Filipino favorites like Crispy Pata with crunchy skin and tender meat; Pork Baby-Back Ribs with Smokey BBQ Sauce; and Prawns Coco Crab Fat—prawns in shell topped with rich aligue in coconut milk.

Monterey Meat Products

Filipinos love to eat. As early retirees here in the Philippines, we became health conscious and very choosy when it comes to our food source. Dirk liked very much the barbeque sticks óf Monterey and our supply of meat and chicken came from them. They even deliver our order right in front of our doorstep. Truly, Monterey meat products are part of everyday Filipino life. With its "farm to market" concept, the Filipino consumer is assured of quality meats for every meal.

A Relaxing Sunday

We spend our sunday celebrating Buddy's 20th birthday at Grace&Rose Restaurant. My grandkids also take advantage of their last day of vacation here at Southforbes by swimming at the clubhouse pool together with other kids. We also watched DVD's and sunday programs in television. The kids then played and walked around our three beautiful shihtzu's.






They also played volleyball with their Uncle Dirk later in the afternoon.

Bloom Party at Paseo

Today we attended a Bloom party at Plaza Regina in Paseo de Santa Rosa. An open-air event was held to present the new stores along Paseo 4. In the forefront was a Japanese Ryuma store which dominated the whole second floor with their ramen, grill & restaurant, grocery and branded toys and clothing for children





Paseo de sta. rosa had gone a long way to expand and build a bigger place to shop, dine, party and have fun in the middle of the suburban area. The bloom party was also an opportunity for car dealers to showcase their new cars.



There's also live music and a short program



We're lucky in the choice of our retirement home, its near manila, the nature, airports and the presence of low to high end stores.

Funny Moments

My youngest sister's family enjoyed their two-day stayed with us. We did go to Nasugbu, Batangas and enjoyed the sun, sea and the blue skies. We have a pampering mode on the second day and the kids funny games in the evening. The marks on their faces are the number of penalties they received on the game.

Family Bonding

It's the second day of my sister and her family in our place. It's a succesful day because our car was repaired and we pampered ourselves a little bit. Joey, my brother in law had his executive foot spa, manicure for me, facial for my sister and all of them are now sporting a new haircut. Joey also had his ear problem solved by visiting an EENT specialist at FortMed. But the most important is the family bonding, its the first time that they stayed with us and my brother in law is going to return to the US next week after a 3-week vacation here.



Our lunch was at Shakeys and dinner at home.

Our Bedroom

Always leading the avant-grade of fashion without compromising traditional craftsmanship of luxury goods, louis vuitton is truly a symbol of wealth and prestige. It's my favorite brand and even decorated our bedroom with an LV theme. Take a peek into our bedroom with LV inspired bed sheet and pillows.



By the way, yesterday we have lunch at Flavours of China. It's a good sight how we as filipinos are taking care of our elders. It's a picture in contrast, the old lady and a newborn baby, both getting the love and care they deserved.
