A Perfect Read For Valentine’s Day

3 Comments

pr, books

Valentine’s Day is the day of love and what better way to spend it than being with the love of your life or by curling up in the sofa with a good book in hand. Here is a new pop novel that is just the perfect read for that day ~ Ms. Brokenhearted Meets Mr. Nice Guy.

This is a fitting read for anyone who is in love, in search for love, and most especially those who are brokenhearted. This new novel from Alexandra Javier will be such an enjoyable read as you celebrate the Heart’s Day with the ones you love.

Here is an excerpt from the book:

 Naranasan mo na bang masaktan nang sobra dahil sa love?

 Ako, oo. At masasabi kong hindi pala `yon isang biro. Sabi nga nila, pain is always behind deceitful love.

Ako si Myra, isang matalinong college student na naging inosente nang dahil sa pag-ibig. Hayaan ninyong ikuwento ng librong `to kung paano ko kinaya ang lahat…

…Kasama ang isang handsome angel na hinulog yata ng langit para tulungan akong bumangon at turuang kiligin at ma-in love muli.

Sounds like a very entertaining read, won’t you agree? I will make another post about the book once I am done reading it.

“Ms. Brokenhearted Meets Mr. Nice Guy,” published by Lifebooks, is now available in all National Book Store, Powerbooks, and Pandayan Bookstores {our local bookstore} branches nationwide. For  more heart-warming pop novels, do not forget to:

Introducing The Proactiv Skin Care Advisors Program

The Proactiv Skin Care Advisors roster

Whether you are starting out a new work out routine or a new diet, it is practical to consult with the experts first before opting for one type of exercise or one kind of diet. This also goes true when starting with a new skin regimen. Not most skin types would agree with any type of skin treatment or skin products, that is why most of us are wary to use just about any product and consider it best to consult with a dermatologists, skin experts or trained professionals before trying out any beauty or skin product.

This is probably what Proactiv had in mind when they conceptualized the Proactiv Skin Care Advisors program.

Mum Finds: Cars + ABC Food Picks

3 Comments

I have always been fascinated with those awesome bentos and aspired to create lovely food arts, too, when my little man is more up to eating solids aside from his usual pancit canton from Chowking. That is the reason why I keep my eyes open for interesting items that I might be able to use once I am up and ready to start my bento journey. By the way, I’ve attended a bento workshop last quarter of 2013 but have not been able to share it here yet. It was really inspiring and I really aspire to create those fun and healthy baon boxes for the little man once he goes to school.

I got these cute picks late last year, too. I thought the abc’s would pique the little man’s attention, while the Cars’ sandwich press are just too adorable not to notice. Jared is a huge fan of Lightning McQueen and the gang that is why I know he will like these. In fact, he was too excited to play with them when they arrived home, probably thinking they were another batch of Cars’ toys for him to play.

Am not that crafty and am not that creative either, but am sure I can think of a number of ways to use these picks to make the food I serve for my little man look even more interesting. I sure hope his appetite will follow soon. By the way, I got these pieces from a friend I met at the bento workshop I mentioned. The Cars’ sandwich plunger are at Php200 per set, while the ABC picks sell at Php25 per set of three.
