WS: got milk?

got-milk
…taken on our way to Connecticut last Saturday for my niece’s baby shower. it was a good day for a road trip that we decided to make it just a day trip. in total, M drove for almost 7 hours! can you just imagine how tired he can be? but it was all worth the trip. we get to see our relatives and the kids had fun playing with cousins alike. a change of atmosphere was also good for all of us.

Litrato:new fave

Photobucket

First and utmost…Happy 1st Anniversary again to LITRATONG PINOY!!! and here’s to LP’s Madame Butterfly…hehehe! Madame Admin pala, for a job well done [at nagpadami ng uban nya mwahaha!] Isa na po ako dun hehe! sowi po!

I am mega uber positive that most of you found this theme a challenge. Easy as it may seem, if we base it on the theme title…Paboritong larawan [favorite photo]. Sort of a freestyle in effect, right? But nah… it wasn’t the case for me. And we all know the reason why most of us found this a tad difficult…we.have.a.gazillion.of.fave.photos!

So I decided to post a very recent and fabulous discovery…

The Marina Bay…located just around the area of Quincy, Massachusetts. I have been in the city for more than a year now but it was only during the past weekend that we saw this marvelous place.

Maaraw man noong araw na iyon, pero malamig pa rin kaya hindi kami nakatagal sa labas…and we decided to come back again and eat in each and every restaurant by the boardwalk soon.

These 2 photos aren’t exactly a favorite since I have yet to learn the correct settings in shooting seascapes, landscapes and all other naturescapes on a sunny day such as this…in fact, sinadya kong ipakita ang 2 larawan na ito sa inyo na halos magkamukha. pansin nyo? haha!
the reason behind…
isa dito ay walang kadaya daya kundi ang pag-re-resize lamang at watermark…
at ang isa ay na-photoshop ng kaunti:) alin, alin? alam nyo ba kung alin?
And I can’t wait to come back…kasi, kasi! I have a new lens! yay! Gusto kong makita ang kaibahan nitong larawan na ito gamit ang bago kong toytoy!:)
…and wouldn’t it be nice to visit these wonderful vacation spots and be on the road for days with an rv? this is just one of my son’s biggest dreams, ever! it’s free anyway, dreaming that is:]

Skywatch: Horizon

Last Sunday was family day and fortunately we ha d a feel of pre-spring too at about 60’s. We took advantage of this and went straight to the Wollaston Beach after church and some grocery shopping. The bright and sunny sky cooperated well enough for me to take this picture and some. What came afterwards was even better…a lovely lunch at the Clambox! Delicious!

desperately seeking spring

The weekend went by so fast. Starting off with the kid’s Luau Dance on Friday night, which was fun especially for the girl. The little boy did not exactly have the best of times since his buddies weren’t around and the only kids surrounding him were girls! haha! Saturday was spent doing our usual weekly grocery shopping and a playdate for the kids. Now, Sunday…was entirely a family affair, other than C’s first Reconciliation where he just had to go to the priest and pray.  Afterwards, we heard mass and off we went!

…to the beach, where the kids got to play a wee bit since it was fairly sunny but still breezy. it was lunch time then and when we felt our tummy’s grumbling…literally! we crossed the street and had a lovely lunch at The Clambox. Fortunately, they re-opened a week ago after closing store during the colder months…

We are 4 days away until it is officially SPRING here and we just can’t wait! I, cannot wait…An entry to WS-spring-clambox

WS: Pho and a squirrel

pho
…sunday lunch at Pho Hoa. M’s ultimate fave soup, Beef Pho. a traditional Vietnamese dish with thinly sliced meat and rice-noodle swimming in delicious soup flavored with asian spices.  it’s a hint for me to start making some myself. although it is fairly priced at $8 for a large bowl, i still think home-made will save us some $$$ still, huh? considering that it has become a weekly craving for us now:]

squirrel
…i caught a glimpse of that cute little squirrel comfortably nestled atop a branch on a breezy day as i passed by my dining room window.  instinctively, i rushed to get my camera ready and take a snap! that’s the nearest zoom my lens can take, awww!

WW: cold and dry

cold-and-dry
this is how i’m feeling these past few days, but the sun is peeking out there and bringing a glimpse of something to look forward to, right? sometimes it even feels like i am gazing through a Nikon rifle scopes just to see that shining light that’s been missing for quite some time now…or is it?

…an entry to Wordless Wednesday!
