Cruising at Loboc

Posted by on May 14, 2012 in Bohol, Trips, Windows | 0 comments

At Night, Loboc River, Bohol.

I really have a lot of backlogs…saw this one in the drafts and I wondered why I missed publishing this post, one with this lovely photo of one of Bohol’s famous rivers, Loboc’s shores at night. The windows and passageways illuminated with green and yellow lights was a sight to behold. We cruised here during our trip to Bohol, if I remember correctly, that was the second night…we then headed to one of the floating restaurants and had dinner there.

Buffet at one of Loboc's Floating Restaurants.

Can’t remember now what the food served were, but there surely was a whole roasted pig (lechon) and other Filipino dishes that made us really full. Burp! Despite being the only child with us, Matt was so behaved and cooperative, we both enjoyed the trip. We were, as we say “sabit” for this trip since hubby was invited and we tagged along as he requested anyway. Given the chance, we’d surely love to visit Bohol again, stay at Peacock Gardens and have a sumptuous dinner at a floating restaurant…

Waiting.

Pre-nuptial photos- using windows

Posted by on Apr 30, 2012 in Photography, Windows | 0 comments

When doing shoots, hubby would often feature windows and doors, not necessarily those of a house but those readily available on location. These are two of the many shots featuring windows or doors (almost) during my older brother’s pre-nuptial shoot.

Avengers, Greenhills Theater Mall

Bonding Thursday was movie night. We watched The Avengers and before getting in the moviehouse, Matt was happily posing with the standees, and all that’s related to the heroes.

Watching movies is a great way to bond with kids. It’s like butter on your popcorn…you get to enjoy a film while your kid has this sense of closeness within the family for he/she/they knows you spent some time out with him/her/them.

Watching movies is one of the many forms of bonding with children. This is one of those little moments that they will look back to and would make them remember their childhood as fond and fun.

One from the album.

 

This is one of the photos in my older brother and sister-in-law’s wedding album. Hubby was the photographer then and as usual I tagged along not just for the photography but as one of the bible readers…sister of the groom and guest…hihi.

Weddings is one of the many events he covers and I always have fun every time I would come along. There’s always a fun, nostalgic feeling within a ceremony, the reception and even at that point when the bride walks down the aisle.

Buying a Mercedes-Benz

Mercedes Benz, one of the most trusted in the car industry.

Contemplating on buying a Mercedes-Benz? Great choice! It is after all one of “Germany’s Big Three” along with BMW and Audi. Add to this that Mercedes-Benz traces back itself originally from Karl Benz’s 1886 Benz Patent Motorwagen, widely regarded as the first automobile. With so many years behind them, don’t wonder that they’re one of top car manufacturers and you could be sure of quality and performance.

To peek into the most sought after Benz makes, one can always visit a showroom or more conveniently; one can view the Dallas Mercedes website. It gives an in-depth insight on today’s car industry, what to look for, how much new cars and pre-owned cars cost. Cars are listed categorically and are easily searchable via year and make. In a few seconds, car makes complete with photo are listed. Results’ prices are also comparable so interested buyers are able to do a check list from the data presented.

Though those buying cars are sure to have the money for it, there are those who would opt to securely and slowly pay them via credit. Thus, the website, http://www.mbplano.com offers a credit application to interested parties readily online.

The website also features a free value-trade -in appraisal for those planning to sell their car to perhaps buy a new one. With this, an owner knows his best option. And yes, for questions not asked in their Mercedes-Benz FAQs page, one can always send a query via their contact form.

Tips on Giving Flowers as Birthday Gifts

Posted by on Mar 29, 2012 in Online services | 1 comment

We all have birthdays, and we all have friends and loved ones whose special day we like to celebrate.  Flowers are an excellent choice of birthday gift as they are full of life, the very thing we are celebrating!  The only drawback can be that the huge choice available is often overwhelming.  At interflora we try our utmost to make your life easier, so here are some general tips on giving flowers as birthday gifts.

The first thing to consider is the type of person you are giving to.  A flamboyant extrovert may appreciate a large bouquet of red roses they can show off to friends, whilst the more tender of us could take more enjoyment from a smaller tasteful bunch, perhaps an orchid, symbolising beauty and refinement.  Red roses would be perfect for a wife or long term partner, however may be too much for a newer loved one.  Perhaps white or pink would be more suitable?  If you don’t know the persons favourite bloom, try and find out!  Such a personal touch cannot help but bring joy and appreciation to the recipient. Interflora birthday gifts can work with you to choose the perfect arrangement.

Every month has a traditional birth flower associated with it, and one option is to incorporate that particular bloom into the basket or bouquet.  January, February and March have the carnation, iris and daffodil respectively, whilst April may and June are traditionally daisy, lily and rose.  July, August and September are larkspur, gladioli and aster.  The winter months of October, November and December use calendula, chrysanthemum and narcissus.

Although it is well known that women love to receive flowers, not just on birthdays but for any occasion, it is less widely held that men also derive great pleasure from floral gifts.  As they would generally be less expected for men, flowers are a great way to stand out, and make his special day more memorable.

When giving flowers to children, it is advisable to combine it with a small gift they can enjoy, be it chocolates, balloons or a cuddly toy.

Interflora stock a wide range of birthday gifts, as well as the seasonal flowers that can help make a birthday bouquet a more thoughtful gift.  The ideas given here are simply that, ideas.  Interflora realise each person is an individual, and as such require individual care and attention.  We will go out of our way to help you celebrate a loved one’s birthday, giving it that extra touch we all adore.
