here's how my day went.....


Inigo and I did some errands together. we went to the nearby CVS Pharmacy to buy his face cream for his rashes that appear once in a while. then went around to kill time. call it weird but i do get a different kind of high when i am inside a supermarket. i go through each aisle and browse the products in the shelf. i spent a longer time in the kikay department (so what else is so surprising about that?). i couldn't decide what nail polish color to get...i was choosing between pastels or get a little daring with the bolder colors. i decided to get one color on each shade (i do my own pedicure because i am never satisfied with those viet ladies cleaning my toenails). then proceeded to the lotion department --- and got the Burt's Bee foot cream. of course by this time, Inigo was getting restless so i gave him his favorite biscuit to keep him busy. then off to the kodak developing machine to have some photos printed that i plan to scrap this weekend. geez, i am so amazed of the many choices you can have your photos printed and how fast they're printed. it was less than 5 minutes and they're cheap too. gone are the days that you wait for more than an hour...ohhh kodak! you had me at hello!!! =)


then we headed straight to Super A and grabbed some choco puddings for Inigo and veggies that i need for my nilagang baka. and this time, Inigo was really getting cranky and so i went straight to the cashier, paid and walked home. it was indeed a great walk and a welcome breeze for us after being confined to the 4 corners of our apartment everyday. yeah, i should do this more often but the thing is, the weather is so unpredictable...right not, it's H-O-T in the afternoon and gets a little cold at night. when you have a toddler in tow, weather becomes a big factor in going out because you don't want your kid getting sick at the end of the day. well, it's friday so maybe we can go around the farmer's market and buy some veggies again and cook diningding.


last night i cooked adobo, hardboiled eggs and steamed okra for dinner. of course dell, inigo and i had a sumptious supper and our stomach's are all happy as we retire for the night.


and oh...i got my skinny jeans from abercrombie...fits me perfectly and goes well with my UGGs....suweeet!!!
