Delivering on Starbucks commitment to inspire and nurture the human spirit, we will honor those who have joined together over the past year to support the Global Fund through the purchase of (STARBUCKS)RED products.
On Monday, December 7,
at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time, artists around the world will unite
to sing “All You Need is Love”
and Starbucks will simulcast the live video on www.StarbucksLoveProject.com.
This live music event will feature artists from different countries performing a special rendition of “All You Need is Love” in a voice and style that is customary and unique to their homeland.
These performances will be streamed simultaneously over the internet to a single viewing location in London, featuring video monitors showing each location’s performance. A video of these combined monitors will then be broadcast to the world on the Starbucks Love Project website.
Following the live event, a special compilation video will be posted on the website where everyone with access to a computer and video camera will have the opportunity to add their voices for the world to see. Starbucks will make a contribution to the Global Fund for every video submitted (up to one million submissions) to the Starbucks Love Project website starting December 7.
Through our contributions to the Global Fund, we are helping to make a difference in the lives of those living with HIV in Africa.
In just one-year in partnership with (RED)™, Starbucks and our customers have generated funds that could buy more than 7 million daily doses of antiretroviral medicine from the sale of select (STARBUCKS)RED products. With your participation in the sing-along, in addition to our customers, we can contribute even more to the Global Fund.

Heart2Heart loves cheese! To the point where sometimes I invent my own recipes. Sharing with you this recipe. I consider this a gourmet recipe because it is a SERIOUS recipe! 
I have shared this with three of my girl friends over merienda at home and they all liked it. So I hope you will like it too!
Ingredients:
CHEESEBALLS! Choose your favorite cheeseballs brand. Use a mortar and pestle to crush the cheeseballs
Garlic bread – I just buy the frozen ones in the supermarket because they are pre cut and prepared already and they are very good. Even if they are pre cut already, I still slice the bread into two so it becomes really thin. I do that also because I do not want to eat too much bread and at the same time, I get to taste more of the cheeseballs on top. I choose any of these two:
Since I slice the bread into two, one of them will not have the garlic spread right, So I spread Holly’s FRESH butter on it
Put the crushed cheeseballs on top of the bread and toast till the bread is lightly browned and cooked
My sons love it too especially Javier and he even has his own version. When we were in the States, he actually made cheeseballs bread and he invented his own version by melting Cracker barrel cheese on top!
WOW!! It was actually good! He is definitely Heart2Heart’s son! 🙂

Last Sunday, Heart2Heart mentioned about being an Angel for somebody ( You Could Be An Angel for Somebody November 29, 2009 )
And you know what…there are many angels watching over thousands of our countrymen out there. Just last night, my bestfriend, Eds, told me that she is still so busy doing relief work for the Ondoy victims and Pepeng victims as well. And she said that she was so happy because her house is full of donations! She and her group were able to give out around 10,000 bags of goods to the typhoon victims!
And just a few days ago, my friend, Tisha Cruz- Bautista, tells me that her foundation, Angel Brigade, is still also helping out typhoon victims as well.
I have such good and generous friends, such ANGELS here on EARTH. I am glad Heart2Heart can help in small ways by bringing awareness…so I hope you can help Tisha and her foundation and support the ANGELS from Angel Brigade
They also have a Donation Card which costs P 75.00/card

Clean and classic is what Longchamp has imbibed through the years. And with a myriad of trends growing season after season, Longchamp has maintained its timeless look of sleek lines and unprecedented style mirrored in their collections.
It is that rush with it-bags that Longchamp takes it on with amusement especially with its newly shaped cubic bags using the same print design as real-live it-bags, such as the Légende or the Cosmos bag. This It-Bag series in cotton and linen canvas has the original and very beautiful leather handles found on the original ranges, giving it a more authentic effect.
The label’s 3 signature bags Cosmos, Légende and Culte take on a new skin in the Exotic Chic collection. Enhanced by mocha, the ivory color brings elegance to the two-tone Culte bag, in its supple leather with its horn-style bamboo. Another design is in snake-style leather that showcases a very refined and glittering bamboo.
Just as sophisticated, the Cosmos Patch bag parades its motif similar to the masks from ancient tribal cultures. This city version of the African trend has arrived to add that final touch of chic.
Defining the latest trends of the season, Longchamp remains true to its easy elegant flair.
Longchamp is exclusively distributed by Rustan’s Commercial Corporation. Longchamp is available in Rustan’s Makati, Rustan’s Tower and Rustan’s Cebu.

I was so happy to receive an update from my friend, Frannie, who recently moved to Singapore. Apparently, she has been keeping herself busy and is blooming as ever- still very slim, very pretty and dancing gracefully!
The Rose Borromeo Spanish Dance Company performs at Celebrate Philippines! – a weekend festival of Filipino history and culture at the Asian Civilizations Museum, Singapore.
