He loves playing clay

The image below is one of the shots that I took while Vince is busy playing clay. He started playing clay at the age of two. At his age, he still needs supervision so I make sure I’m always there everytime he’s playing with his clay. I told Vince clay is not a food, good thing because he understands.

He could squeeze the soft clay and make different shapes. The first time he touched the clay he feels seems to be disgusted maybe because it’s very soft. But after a while he already enjoying it and love-making any shape of the clay.

I bought this clay for him because it helps for his development level and squeeze of a simple piece of soft clay is a perfect match. Playing clay helps Vince stimulates his curiosity and to quickly developed his brain.

Watching Teleserye on a Whole Day

I know many people who enjoy watching local teleseryes and Koreanovelas. I am being the one of them :-). Because yesterday, I just don’t know what to write and what to do I have watching teleserye on a whole day. I guess I need to go out and look for interesting things or scenes that are good to share here and to be able to relax. So, I just settled at home and enjoy my day for watching teleserye on a whole day. Because sometimes I just go out and went to my neighbors friend to talk about the different topic like useless talk, for making us fun :-). Although at home, I realized that there are lots of things for making to share and what to do like listening the different kind of music, like talking to my friends in facebook but when they logged out, I do not have someone to talk to.

Anyway about the teleserye, I just started to watched on ABS CBN channel 2 at 8.00am on Kris TV, this is not a teleserye it is a kind of talk show, Two Wives with Han Ji Sook, Yon Yang Hee and Kang Chul Soo (Koreanovelas) and Please Be Careful with my heart with Jodi Santa Maria and Richard Yap (i like it :-)), at 12 noon I am watching Eat Bulaga noontime show on GMA 7. Then I just continue for watching teleserye on GMA 7, Hindi Kana Mag-iisa with Jennelyn Mercado and Sid Lucero Kasalanan Bang Ibigan Ka with Jackie Rice, Geoff Eigenmann, and Michael de Mesa and last is Faithfully with Maxene Magalona, Michelle Madrigal, Isabel Oli, Vanessa del Moral and Isabelle Daza. This is my whole day!

ISDAAN @ CALAUAN, LAGUNA

Our family has eaten dinner in Isdaan at Calauan, Laguna last Sunday July 15, 2012. This was our first time to visit there. Isdaan is a floating restaurant that has enormous statues all over the place. It was really beautiful and indeed a unique way of attracting customers and have a one of a kind dining experience. The ambiance was really inviting specially during night-time. The place is so big and awesome. It feels like you’re in other place outside thePhilippines. For me this place is such a great place. There are lots of buddha at the place. Anyway about the food was okay, but they were a bit slow at serving out the foods. While waiting for our food to be served, we strolled around the place to take more pictures and seem for more interesting displays to see.

Here are some stunning statues photos.

Along the walkway at the side of the main kitchen I saw these outside. This is the way they cook our ordered rice, super cute, (ang liliit ng kaldero 🙂 ).

Another attraction is the boat ride and tour around the place for free. As a courtesy of management you give a tip to the boat man for at least Php 20. At the children’s corner, they offer free face painting, free used of bicycle. There’s a lot of famous cartoon and comic’s statues were located at their children’s corner like angry birds, Mickey Mouse, and superman. This is the facade from the waiting area where you could have picture-taking with the life-size statue of the late former President Cory Aquino or former President Erap Estrada, President Obama and his wife.

If you want to release you anger, then they have a Tacsiyapo Wall. For a minimal fee, depending on what you want to throw and break on the wall like the mug it cost for Php 25 each, it’s your chance to shout and be heard!

For entertainment, they have man/women serenade you with one song while eating and you need to give Php 20 tip like the boat man.

We had so much fun and really enjoy the experience 🙂 .

MY FIRMOO GLASS WHERE ARE YOU?

My firmoo glass where are you? Just about two months I am still waiting for you. I don’t know why not comes. I am thankful to my SIL because she received five glasses from firmoo and she gave me one. She received for almost two weeks waiting only. I know all of you are very familiar about firmoo glass. I just wonder because I never received my glass. My sister-in-law said why does not try to go our post office here in Pagbilao, Quezon. Then I thought to go to the post office in Pabilao, Quezon, because there’s no street name in our Subd. but they have a Blk no. and Lot no. and I thought this is the one reason why not my glass received. I also know the firmoo sent me because I will receive the message from email. And off course my first impression was very happy and excited. I try one day to go and ask the post office, and I also know there’s no harm in trying. Guys what do you think? What should I do?

Rotten Guyabano Fruit

Last week my neighbors offered me to buy her guyabano fruit for a cost of 25 pesos. I was attracted to buy because the fruit is beautiful and possesses a smooth skin. This is one favorite fruit of my hubby, we would shake it, but were very disappointed because it’s defect were opened it :-(. I shot a photo and I thought that I blog for food trip Friday.

Silangang Nayon is one of the best and most desirable restaurant located in Province of Pagbilao, Quezon. My SIL was celebrating her birthday last February. If you enter here you can see the different kind of statue animals and the stunning view of restaurant houses on stilts with a long food bridge. The order will be delivered using an airplane suspended on a cable, sort of zipline delivery it’s very different. And you can admire the place, the stunning view of Pagbilao Bay, Pagbilao Power Plant, Pagbilao Grande Island, and Patayan Island with visible white sand beaches from a far. Anyhow, one of the best food served in this celebration are steam capiz in oyster sauce, sinigang na hipon, spyribs, fried chicken, fresh buco juice and java rice.

Silangang Nayon has hotel rooms available for overnight accommodations, we did not stay here because our home is near this place. I t’s almost 5 kilometers only from our home. Anyway, it’s just easy to go there Comute to Pagbilao, Quezon: Board Buses to Lucena City either via Lucena Lines, Jam Transit or Jac Liner, it’s better to board one with Dalahican signboard for by its passes by SM City Lucena. In Lucena you transfer to jeepneys going to Pagbilao. Then you just stop in Greenview Hotel and beside of this hotel they have many passengers tricycle going to Silangang Nayon.

Stunning view of Mt. Banahaw

Last May 2012, my hubby and I went to Liliw Laguna. Incidentally, the weather is good and I saw the stunning view of Mt. Banahaw and the green environment. So I told my hubby to stop the car and I took the picture of the mountain. They have many eye-catching scenes but were attracted the pleasant view and green environment of Mt. Banahaw. This view is located along the Majayjay high-way going to Liliw, Laguna.
