So happy to see my highschool classmate Roselyn! She was here for a few days only and I made sure I got to see her. We had merienda and she wanted to have bibingka so we went to Via Mare in Powerplant Mall at Rockwell. We even bumped into another classmate there, Sandie! 🙂
Here is Roselyn with her bibingka 🙂 YUMMY! Enjoyed catching up with her even for a short while, she is hilarious!
Roselyn is a foodie and has her own food blog!
I cannot even keep up with her because she is travelling everywhere. Click on the link below to go to her website:
Roselyn now lives in Bali since her husband, Alejandro, is the General Manager of the Bulgari resort
I was hoping that one day I would go to Bali and visit Roselyn there, maybe one day…..but here are some photos from Roselyn
Roselyn and Alejandro happily live in Bali with their two children Jerome and Camille

Last May 8, James set up the Pacquiao fight for Dad in his living room! Apparently it was a good idea because Dad seemed to like it
We prepared nachos and corn on the cob 🙂 which Javier ate ( not dad haha!)
And we had Sunday family lunch while the fight was going on
Yesterday, James arranged it again and this time, Dad had more guests with him
Again it was Sunday lunch so before 12 noon everyone is still watching the other fights
And we were surprised that Gloria brought her daughter Isabelle together with Anne Curtis!! I was excited! 🙂 It’s a good thing we still had food to serve them. They watched the fight as well.
A little after they arrived, the fight started!
And this was all of us watching!!
Including household staff!!
And even if everyone thought Manny didn’t deserve to win, we still love him, WIN OR LOSE! If there is one thing that ALL Filipinos love, it’s Manny Pacquiao! He brings our family together to watch his fight 🙂 and he unites our country! WE LOVE YOU MANNY!
At around 9pm, we arrived at the Jamba Juice launch, it was already finished as it started at 6pm. It seems everyone wanted to open and launch on 11.11.11. There were so many events that evening
This is what we saw when we arrived! WOW! It’s in the expansion of High Street and they are the first to open
The launch was over but many people were still lining up to get a taste of Jamba Juice 🙂
We saw Jim Fuentebella! Congratulations Jim! Jim is part of the family that owns Max Fried Chicken, Krispy Kreme and now Jamba Juice. He is in charge of Corporate Marketing for the 3 companies! Obviously he is doing a great job and he himself is creative on his own as he is a designer
Thank you Rica for inviting me over and explaining to me about the family business 🙂 Congratulations to you and Robert too! Robert is the cousin of Jim and is also part of the family. Robert told me that he now handles the franchising for Max’s.
Many other family members handle the day to day operations of each chain. It seemed like everyone had a part which I thought was nice.
And I asked Robert who the big boss was, I was waiting for him to say “ME” 🙂 but no, he said that they have a board of directors ( which comprises all of them in the business ) that meet and decide together! What a cool family!
Thanks to Rica for also narrating what I missed….
