Mich Araullo

By | Fashion, What's New at Power Plant Mall | 3 Comments

I received a message from Popsie to visit her cousin at the Urban Bazaar in Rockwell. Mich is a college student and does fashion on the side.  Popsie told me that she only showcases her items in the Urban bazaar as she is really still a full time student.  Her booth was very busy

Popsie, you are a great and proud cousin giving so much support to your cousin!  I think that at a young age we should support young children/adults when they show interest in doing business or pursuing their career.   The guidance and support you get from your family and friends is very important.  Her Dad and Mom were there also at her booth helping her sell!  Mich is a lucky girl!

To Mich, good luck in pursuing your career or whatever it is you will do after you graduate!

Old Asia

By | Shopping, What's New at Power Plant Mall | 3 Comments

It’s been 17 year since Tita Pachot started Old Asia.  She was one of the first in the business till everyone else followed.  

More power to Tita Pachot and Old Asia!

Tita Pachot selects everything that goes inside the store…and everything is beautiful! I think that in every business, what is important is the owner’s touch.  It makes a whole lot of difference and you will know it…

Just the menu alone made me want to order immediately.  They have a SAMPLER where you can have 4 kinds of pizza all in one!  They deliver to Makati but it takes an hour and half! I will wait!!

COMBINATION

Make sure the pizza is reheated before you eat it..it makes a big difference.  The pizza was a bit late so since the guests were waiting, we did not heat it anymore and ate it straight.  When we ate the leftover slices the next day and heated it, it was much much better!!  So make sure to pre heat your oven before the pizza arrives, then heat it and EAT IT!!

For Passport Application and Renewal, you can now do it online for the application.  You still need to make an appearance but the rest of the steps are convenient and easy

After application, they will go pick up your passports from wherever you want, home or office, and get your fingerprint. There is a fee of P 1,300.00 per passport which you have to pay as they pick up your passport.  

Then you will have to make a personal appearance in the Department of Foreign Affairs ( DFA )  in Roxas Blvd. where they will meet you and escort you so you do not need to wait or line up.

Sweet Bella

By | Yummy! | 3 Comments

Aside from the beautiful presentation of these cakes, they are just a yummy as they look!  Heart2Heart is so lucky to have tried both cakes on two occassions.  That goes to show you how popular that feature was from the Philippine Daily Inquirer by Vangie Baga-Reyes on the 20 Yummiest ( privately Baked ) Cakes because these two cakes made it to that list.  

Apparently, these cakes are made by the daughter of Melo Santiago of Melo’s. I hope to meet her one day.

Uncle Libering

By | Tributes | 3 Comments

A few weeks ago, I arrived in the Polo Club parking lot and I saw Cynthia from afar and Uncle Libering in his wheelchair.  I walked towards them to find out that Uncle Libering was very pale…little did I know that that would be the last time I would see him.   

Everyone I talk to remembers Uncle Libering as a very cheerful person just like his brother who is my father in law.  He was our “Ninong” in our wedding 14 years ago.  I remember very well when he visited me in the hospital when I gave birth to our first son.  He brought me some pastries, I think ensaymada.  I was so touched.

 Uncle Libering is such a simple person and I admire him for that. 

His shirts are all from Brooks Brothers….. so I guess Daddy Monching was trying to convert him to a Lacoste guy because every Christmas and birthday, we help Dad get his gift for Uncle Libering.  Here is a photo taken during Uncle Libering’s birthday this year – the two brothers in Lacoste 🙂

He goes to Polo Club everyday to go to the gym where I see him regularly

 Heart2Heart pays tribute to Uncle Libering! A good husband, father, brother, uncle, friend and businessman.dsc_4996.JPG

 Since he lives in Malabon, we celebrated mass at this beautiful church in Malabon….

 unclelibering1.jpgunclelibering5.jpgunclelibering6.jpg unclelibering7a.jpgunclelibering8.jpg

While in the church, I overheard two women chatting and saying that Uncle Libering visited his wife, Aunty Choleng ( who passed away 5 years ago ) everyday and gave her flowers!!! WOW!!!!!  I only found that out a few weeks ago!  And that was what Cynthia said in her eulogy that her Dad was a loyal and faithful husband…….even till his last day.scan1683.jpg

Beginnings

By | Great Achievements | 2 Comments

Heart2Heart admires young entrepreneurs who take that risk and pursue their own businesses or companies.  Bert, Michelle and Gemma all started out as employees of big companies and decided to put up their own.  It has been more than 10 years since they started Beginnings….

I visited them in their office and it reflects the hard work, creativity and definitely a proof of their success!

More power to you guys!!
