Inagiku Lunch

By | Foodie | No Comments

This is a long delayed post, as you can see, this was taken sometime before Chinese New Year!  My friend, Grace, invited me over for lunch at Shangri-la Hotel Makati where she hangs out a lot – gym, lunch, gym, celebrations in the ballroom, gym, dinner, gym 🙂  She’s a regular here so I guess she asked me to come over to her home 🙂

Squeeze Bottles

By | Great Inventions, Hearty Deals, Shopping | 3 Comments

Another of Heart2heart’s favorite things.  I saw a chef using this in one of the caterings and I immediately bought them since I was organizing Javier’s ingredients in the kitchen.  It’s more organized and it is more tidy to use since you just squeeze and you don’t have to open bottles and containers

Michael Kors is pleased to announce that the brand’s Facebook page now has one million fans. In conjunction with this milestone, it has launched a newly revamped Facebook Timeline that celebrates the brand’s 31-year history as well as the life of the designer himself.

Accompanying the launch of the new Facebook interface, a digital video brings to life memorable moments of the brand and the designer. Michael Kors is celebrating across its other digital platforms including Twitter, Pinterest and Instagram. Fans will be directed back to Facebook to view this exclusive living archive of runway shows, editorial highlights, past and current advertising campaigns, iconic product shots, personal photos of the designer’s memorable moments, behind-the-scenes videos backstage at fashion shows and on-set of campaign shoots and more.

“What a great way to celebrate our one-million-fan landmark,” says Michael Kors of the Timeline and video. “It’s wonderful to look back on more than 30 years with this fabulous community of fans.”
