All about Vegas

 

Ashton and Cameron has a movie showing and it’s called What Happens in Vegas…While I can’t go out and watch a movie due to my delicate pregnancy, I am picturing that the scenes were shot i las vegas hotels or is it somewhere else?  

I guess I have to wait for it on DVD.

So what’s actually there is in Vegas apart from casinos? I heard that there are also great shows there by fmaoust and finest artists.

Buy the original

Diet pills combined with exercise can be a sure way to lose weight. Do not forget proper food intake of course. However, there are many diet pills all over the market place. Which one to choose? It pays to read reviews of those before buying one. Phentermine is a brand that I think is under rated yet very popular. More people buy this supplement and and it is even being copied by other manufacturers. Buy the original.

Obsolete no more!

memory.gifMy personal computer can be considered as obsolete already due to many reasons. It needs a memory upgrade to cope up with the standard memory needed for our broadband connection, the monitor seems out of fashion (it is white!), to name a few. Good thing, I purchased my laptop! Thanks to my office mate who sells computers at a discounted price. The old one? I have given the desktop to my hubby!

In preparation

Today, more and more people are getting health conscious. They watch what they eat, go to the gym, living a healthy lifestyle, taking in some health supplements but no matter how careful we are illness strikes like a thief in the night.

That is why it is always best to get health to have someone to back us up when we catch a disease.

Apart from being too costly, I don’t get health insurance because I do not want to be bothered my insistent insurance agents. I want to get the best offers but I don’t want to be stalked by these annoying agents.

Good thing that with the ever evolving trading systems in terms of products and services come the online service for insurance quotes. Now, anything you need to know about a health insurance company can be accessed online. No hopping from one website to another and you do not have to go nuts comparing the Health Insurance Rates each company has to offer.

You can get affordable health insurance quotes with just a few clicks on the mouse and it is for free. Preparing for health battles need to be expensive. There are choices that would match your health insurance needs. But you always have to bear in mind that preparation needs to be started before illness takes its toll on anyone.

A Night, named Ryan

Yesterday we celebrated our first wedding anniversary. We had dinner reservations for two at Spiral Restaurant in Sofitel Phillipine Plaza, one of the five stars hotel here in Manila. It was formerly known as Westin Phil. Plaza. Our reservation starts at 7:30 but since we got there early we moved it to 6:30 p.m. and was really glad that our request was accommodated even on a short notice. I guess anybody will be extra nice and pleasant to you knowing that it’s an anniversary you’ll be celebrating and to top it all I’m carrying a heavy load in my tummy since I’m on my way to 29th week of pregnancy.The hotel was beautifully designed. The staircase was intricately crafted and it wasn’t called Spiral for nothing.

The dining tables are situated all around this magnificent staircase.

‘Twas a buffet dinner like no other. We were flooded with food! Literally speaking that is. We do not even know where to start. They’ve catered to all international cuisines such as Mediterranean, Korean, Chinese, Japanese, Thai, Vietnamese, Filipino, American, Italian, Indian and so much more. Please view the pictures below for you to have an inkling what I’m talking about. The pictures were borrowed from foodfor2.com

salad-station.jpg

All kinds of salad for green-eyed monsters like me.

bread-galore.jpg

Bread galore for those who refuses to eat rice because they are dieting.

cheese-station.jpg

Cheese to go with the bread. You can choose from a wide array of it, goat, blue, cheddar, camembert, stilton, parmesan. Name it and they have it.

sushi-station.jpg

Sushi bar for Japanese food lovers and I am not included. Since everything that looks and feels like it’s still breathing is a BIG no, no for me.

barbeque-station.jpg

I heart their grill station! I’m a sucker for anything grilled.

india-station.jpg

Curry anyone? This is their taste of India.

chinese-dimsum-station.jpg

This is hubby’s favorite, the Chinese Dimsum station.

seafood-station.jpg

Still hubby’s fave, the seafood section. He’s addicted to oysters!

And here’s my much loved station, the Dessert Haven!

dessert-haven.jpg

Feast your eyes on various choices of desserts such as crepes, creme brulee, cakes, cookies, jell-os, ice cream, crema de fruta and my fave of all, sugar-free panacottas! Their stawberry and dark chocolate mousse panacottas were simply the best!

I had paella, aspara bacon, lots of salad (I highly recommend their Waldorf, it’s so delectable), grilled tuna, steamed vegetables, osso buco, dumplings, a glass of freshly squeezed mango juice and my sugar free panacottas. I was planning to go Italian and Thai on my next round but I was so full already. So I decided to just leave it all to hubby. He went back to the buffet table 6 times! Wow, what an appetite! Maybe I was able to go another round if not for my big baby getting all the space in my tummy. But I’m not complaining. I know I made my child a happy baby last night too. Then during one of the trips of hubby to the buffet table, I’ve asked the waitress if they can make a simple cake for us saying Happy Anniversary as part of my many surprises for hubby and gladly they’ve obliged. It was like I stumbled upon a magic lamp and all my wishes came true that night. It was really a magical moment for us both. So when hubby came back to our table, he was so surprised when the cake was presented to him along with my gifts. He was such a happy lark. You may see the picture of our anniversary cake below. Unfortunately, we thought of photographing it when we were already almost through with it. It was so delicious. It was made of dark chocolate with chocolate sprinkles and topped with spiral white chocolate and it’s filling was so creamy that it tasted like ice cream already.

Hubby deserved to be pampered even just for that night, since it’s been a year already that he has been taking care of me. I was in and out of the hospital since we’ve gotten married because of my difficult pregnancies. I lost our little one to miscarriage last July and now I’m about to give birth to our angel this coming July as well. Thanks to hubby’s love and care, everything is going well with my pregnancy now. I’ve gotten through with my very cumbersome first trimester because of hubby’s help. He takes care of everything in the meantime that I’m still heavy with child. He cooks for me and our little baby inside my tummy, he cleans the house, washes the dishes, he does all the household chores even if he’s too tired coming from work and he still makes sure that I’m comfortable and good even if he’s too busy. He even drives me to the office and fetches me right after. I just couldn’t ask for a better husband because he’s the best already. So I saved up for my gifts for him because he truly deserves it and so much more. I gave him a brand new watch and a new aviator shades. Since he’s been doing the budgeting in our household and paying for all my medicines, vitamins and prenatal check-ups, most of the time he doesn’t have anything left to splurge a little on something really nice. He’s just so selfless. It was my own humble way of saying thank you for everything he has done and still doing for me.

Here’s the picture of the best husband in the world:

And the gift that made my night:

anniv-gift.jpg

I realized that love is not all about giving gifts, flowers, chocolates and candle lit dinners, it’s all about sacrifices and how much you are willing to give of yourself to the one you love. And I am giving all that I am and all that I’ll ever be. I will never forget that night since that was a special night that I named after my heart, soul and life, my husband Ryan.
