Treats

As soon as we got back from Vic's office's annual Trick or Treat, Johann dumped all their goodies on the bed.  Both big and small Kuyas were excited to sort through their loot.  They got their usual favorites, jelly ace and a few Hershey's kisses.  They recently discovered Flat Tops and Curly Tops, so Javi horded them too.  This is the start of their love affair with candy.

Before going to the office, we had to bribe them with candy just to get them dressed up.  "I don't like candy!"  That's what they said.  Ha!

So now, they know what Trick or Treat is about.  I had to play cop and ration their treats to 3 pieces each.  Otherwise, we'd be battling tonsilitis tomorrow. 

For sure, we won't have problems making them dress up next time.

Speaking of treats, the kids weren't the only ones who came home with them.  While the boys were with Daddy, I went to BHS with Bettina.  I came  home with these...


Who could resist?  It was 40% off for two pairs.  It was short of B1T1.  I know I don't really need it.  But if I wait for my Crocs to disintegrate, I may never have to buy another pair of flipflops in this lifetime.  I've been waiting for 5 years.

Well, I'm still not sure if I am keeping both.  I might give one as a Christmas gift.

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...

Great Finds for the New Year

I'm always excited to try out new products.  I've tried these new products and found them to be very satisfactory.  I hope you get to try these out too. 1. Soap and Glory's Clarity - I was about to become Rudolf, the reindeer, before I found this.  It stopped my zit from becoming a full-blown center-of-attraction.  It has a very refreshing smell that is very much needed after a sweating it out the whole day.  Available at Sephora stores. 2.  Mocha Rose by Rosebud Perfume Co -  If you like the Rosebud Salve balms that come in small tin pods, you will love this product.  It comes in an easy-open tube for convenience and effortless application.  The application tip has a velvety texture unlike most balms in a tube.  More importantly, the balm is so effective, it took out the dryness on my lips in a couple of applications.  Also available at Sephora stores.  ...

Gratitude Calendar 11/5

  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.
