The Oddest Things

Now that Johann is getting stronger and smarter, he is figuring out how things work like turning appliances on and off. He gets excited when he finds a new door to open. He manages to surprise us with his new skills.

Just recently, I opened the ref only to find Javi's hairbrush cooling in the shelf. A week before, he parked his tiny toy car on top of his Jellyace. I wonder what other odd thing I'll find inside my ref in the days to come.

Come to think of it, I've seen some really unusual things in the ref.
> face creams - I once opened my aunt's ref to find a myriad of creams in the door shelves. This may not be unusual to some since there are cosmetic refs in the market.

> blood supply - I used to go with my mother during her rounds in Rizal Medical. I was still very young, about 3 or 4y/o. As curious as Johann is, I tried to explore what is within my reach. I opened the chiller thinking I'd find food. I didn't find any. Instead, there were bags and bags of reddish brown liquid. Freaky.

> swimsuits and hosiery - my cousin used to keep her Speedo in the lower shelf. She said it helps retain elasticity. I am not sure if there's truth in that.

What odd thing did you find in your ref recently?

@EW - amazingly, body wash bottles lang ata ang di pinasok ng baha sa ground floor namin

@Deepa - they didn't die in the cold environment?

Just yesterday, Vic found Johnson's baby powder in the ref. Baka mas masarap para kay Johann kasi malamig?

  I have always been afraid of the dark.  But growing up and becoming a parent, I have learned to overcome that (along with other fears), so that my children will not grow up fearing trivial things.  

Luxury Bags in Japan

Since almost everyone I know visited Japan this summer, I would like re-live my visit this year through this post.  This time, I will focus on luxury bags. We've heard about the usual reseller shops that house these luxury brands.  The one I can remember now is Daikokuya. I must've visited almost all reseller shops I've seen on the road.  I've noticed that these shops carry the top 3 popular ones:  Hermes, Chanel and Louis Vuitton.  There still are several pieces of Balenciaga, Valentino, Tory Burch, Celine, Gucci and Michael Kors but not as abundant as the top 3.  I guess what carries the most value are the three popular ones. If you are looking for cheap designer bags, I suggest checking out Don Quixote.  You will usually find on the topmost floors on Donki.  I think this is the one in Shinjuku. I am not so sure. You find them arranged like this or inside locked glass cabinets.  I'm sure the artisans who made these bags will tu...
