I found these Sharon Professional Aluminum Cookware when hubby and I were looking for another kind of cookware that we wanted to buy for use at home. Sharon Cuneta is indeed exploring a new line of business. I have not watched Sharon at Home much except for that last episode i saw where Judy Ann Santos, her “sister” was the guest. I first found her Celebrations by Sharon fudge brownie mix and other mixes at the Robinson’s Supermarket in AMall then I think she also has sauces and other bottled food products. Then these various cookwares.

I am particularly looking for a big red casserole that I saw her using on her show and I think it’s part of her cookware yet it was not available here at Robinson’s department store. I have liked that red casserole as I have seen being used in various cooking shows during the holidays. I just love the bright color! It brings more color to the kitchen while using it for cooking. These are quite expensive not within my budget that time. Will save up for it especially for that red casserole cookware that I like that is if I find it here.

But for our friend now as she is turning 30 herself, I bet she will be pursuing some of her dreams in life this year. She has a list and am sure she will be talking about that when we meet for her birthday. Now we are thinking of chipping in to get her a birthday gift as agreed by her friends. We have gift ideas in mind already. She loves red velvet cupcakes from one bakery here so that will be her birthday cupcakes unless we get her the chocolate mousse cake which is also one of her favorite cakes. Also, she loves to collect mugs so we are getting her one from one of her favorite coffee shop or maybe that mug I saw from a gift store online. These gifts could be something she will appreciate getting as birthday gifts for her 30th birthday. She loves chocolates too and there are many chocolate stuff that we can buy from this online store that I am browsing right now. Oh my those chocolates look so tempting and delicious! I could wish I am turning 30 too and my friends are giving me those chocolates as their birthday gift!

These are the Disney Mickey Mouse Donuts | GoNuts Donuts Abreeza that the kids and classmates of our dear little boy loved among the donuts we brought for the advance celebration of the little boy’s birthday at school. There were also Pooh donuts plus three other varieties of chocolate flavored donuts that we brought too.

This was a hit among the kids. Well kids are really fascinated with the Mickey design of this donut. Just glad I also bought these instead of having all those other chocolate donuts.

The little boy wants more of this he said when he saw me writing this post. LOL! Okay we will try to buy him one more tomorrow if we do get to go back to GND.

Anyway, I am not that busy and I want to give myself a break after a rather quite busy week. I wanted to play some online game for tonight. Yes I have been wanting to take a peek at my Farm Town game which I have not played for a long time. My former college classmate was suggesting over at Facebook for me to try this Call Of Duty Modern Warfare 3 game that he and his friends are into. He said it has that reinvented Special Ops co-op play and an all-new survival mode. I am not familiar with the game though hubby may be able to play it more.

Anyway, I found another thing to do and maybe I can work on the photo album that has been saved and pending to be completed since last year. I’ll try to work on that unless I find another nice movie to watch in awhile this relaxing Friday night.

I will always be thankful to the Lord for providing for us just when we are in need. I know we just have to labor and work, He will help us. A door has closed for us in 2011 but hubby and I remain faithful and hopeful that the LORD will open another better opportunity for us. Guide us in our decisions Lord and protect us at all times. May we be blessed with the generosity of your heart LORD! Amen!

I told her I had to wait until the last week of January if extra funds will get through before I decide on getting what she was offering me. I know insurance can be a good investment so I told her I will wait for that period and it will give me somehow enough time to think about it.

Last night, we dined at the Hukad restaurant in the mall that originates from Cebu which serves unlimited rice. We have dined here many times before and we’re rather suki already because of their good food and they are rather more affordable compared to the other restos. There you can see at this photo is the rice I had which is about two servings or around two cups of rice. That’s my limit, the max that I allow myself when we are dining there. I had a cup of rice earlier during the day and this maybe just too much considering it’s dinner.

There are times I would rather opt out dining at this resto and would be thinking twice when hubby asks me if I like to dine there simply because I just do not want to be tempted to maximize their unlimited rice offer. Yet food is good and sometimes you just get into the mood like other people to just go for their unli rice.

While others are having no rice diet after the holidays, I just limit my meals just like what I have been doing for more than a year already. So I think indulging in this offer would be okay as long as it is not everyday!

It was a nice surprise meeting with old friends and we chatted till SB was almost about to close. The hubby of our schoolmate will be going on mountain climbing today as I remember our meet that night. He had been looking for a mountain hardwear in the sporting goods stores in the mall before they went to that coffee shop. It was interesting to know about his climb and had we have been prepared, I would wish hubby and I can come along (wishful thinking) and fulfill our dream of climbing Mount Apo. Our chat went on endlessly but time flies indeed when you are having fun talking with your old friends. I wish we have more time to catch up with each other’s lives. It was like a Christmas gift for me to have this surprise meeting with old friends. I hope we will see each other again soon.

We still regulated the kid’s TV by locking the channels we don’t like him to watch including Nickolodeon and Disney. We let him watch the Disney Junior because we fell the shows there are better. However yesterday, while I was looking for this car hire malaga, the channels got scrambled and SkyCable might have been affected by the typhoon Sendong. Now we lost most of nice channels including the little boy’s Disney Channel. Good thing Lifestyle Network is still there and that’s the one we watched earlier. For now we hope SkyCable will be able to fix the problem soon or else this digibox won’t be that fully maximized in terms of use during the Christmas break.

It is nice too that my sis is looking for books online since by coincidence I found these barnes & noble coupons as suggested by a dear friend of mine who is also a book lover and she also recently bought books  online as her Christmas gift for herself. Books will be one of the Christmas gifts that I wanted to buy for our lil boy. There are many books that I want for him which is out of stock in the two bookstores I went to last week. Maybe my dear sister would be willing to buy those books online for her niece. I’ll keep my fingers crossed on this one!
