H2H’s favorite things will be revived 🙂  Starting to bring in new things again little by little.  I thought for awhile we were closing the place but it seems like we are staying a bit more.  So will try to bring in more stuff every now and then

Just arrived!  I discovered this from my friend, Vanessa!  brought home some!

 I also brought in a few of these overnight sanitary napkins for overnight and for heavy flow- the quality and absorbency of the imported ones still seem to be better than what we have locally so this is good for heavy flow and perfect for overnight

A very cute birthday celebration once more by our friend, Grace, for her daughter Alessi.  Just like Heart2Heart, Alessi loves Golden Spoon Yogurt which tastes like ice cream 🙂 and the color pink!  Happy Birthday little Princess!

Make Your Own Golden Spoon Buffet

By | Golden Spoon, Yummy! | 2 Comments

Golden Spoon Frozen yogurt is a staple dessert at Mom’s house!  She always takes home.  One way of enjoying it is by setting up your own toppings buffet as if you were in the store.

404526_10150513707749106_832521060_n.jpg

Voila! 🙂 

gs-buffet-01.jpeg

It can be any topping that you like!  When we set this up we just brought out what we had from the snack containers.  This is not even half of what you can do!  Just bring out your favorite chocolates, fruits, candies, cereals, syrups, sauces et etc – you can have as many toppings as you like!  

gs-buffet-02.jpegIt makes it more fun to eat your frozen yogurt!
