DS knows that every time we visit the Beach near our home, we had to pass by at Ben&Jerry's and get his favorite ice cream and so we did. I was so good with my diet that I had to skip it even when DS had a lot of left overs :P. Anyway, this reminds me of this entry I did a few years back on Cuisipro® Ice Cream Scoop & Stack! I really think having your ice cream in stack is cool! How was your Saturday? I'm off to check this plantation shutter for now.

If only I religiously eat cereals and Salad each day for the past 2 months, I'm sure I'd be able to lose all my stubborn fats by now. But I just need my protein, read: steak, adobo, etc... Although, Salad can be that yummy all the time, I still need to train my palate from eating it on a daily basis.

I guess to be able to appreciate Salad, one should learn to do Salad varieties. Here's sharing Cilantro Chicken salad before I check on diamonds international.

Before I check on these tire chains for trucks, let me share a little update on my fitness routine.

In about 60 days from now, I shall turn another year older. Every birthday, I promise myself to look good, more so, be fit and healthier. I usually get inspired a couple of months before my birthday and like now, I am back visiting the gym again every single day. I do not have much time to spare in the gym because of work and house chores plus I need to spend quality time with my boys. So everyday, my target is to burn at least 300 calories doing cardio. I really hope to lose 14 lbs before I turn 33.

Inspired by our most recent Summer getaway, I decided to make restaurant review-entries in this blog. I do not claim to be an expert nor even good at this, but more of sharing my own personal experience on different restaurants I visited. Perhaps when I become so used to making these food reviews, I can move on to gadgets reviews, say 8g ipod nano, haha! Dream on, I will never be a gadget savy blogger.

Anyway, for starters, I am going to review our experience at Finale Desserterie & Bakery. My friends and I were so full from our Skipjack's Seafood Dinner that we decided to order 2 sample dessert platters instead of having 1 slice each of the desserts in their menu.

This Dessert Sampler include: Crème Brûlée, Lemon Roulade, Manjari Mousse, Hot Fudge Sundae, Finale Cheesecake, Boston Cream, Whoopie Pies, Apple Cranberry Tart and Gelati & Sorbet plus a Molten Chocolate.

We also ordered illy coffee and dessert wines to match these sweets.

Everything was beyond expectation. The dessert wines and illy coffee tasted so good and words are not enough to describe how good these desserts samplers were. Service was fast and staff was efficient. We will definitely come back.

I chanced upon this site: www.personalcreationscoupons.com, while helping out DH's cousin plans out her wedding souvenirs. We are just extremely happy that we did not rush into ordering her wedding souvenirs because this site offers a lot of choices and they have a lot of discount coupons as well. This include 10% off your whole purchase plus free shipping on orders more than $25. I guess all we need now is to finalize what font to use for their initials which would be engraved in their chosen souvenirs.

I have so many food photos to share but this will be a quick post for now as I need to check on these horse riding helmets. Most of which I took from our most recent trip to Boston. I swear if I stayed longer there, I could have gotten home weighing double than I am because food there is just extremely good!!! So yes, more food photos later but in the meantime, here's my favorite restaurant in Boston!
