Proofs.

Lately, I abhor having my pictures taken up close because the evidences of my working until late night habit are clearly visible: zits on the forehead, deep set and dark under eye circles seemingly begging for an eye cream in desperation. Include in the list a pale and anemic looking face so just imagine how have I been working hard lately. I’m not complaining really..in fact, I’m thankful even because it only means that I’ll have an additional funding for the husband’s ultimate Christmas gift wish: a new lens for our ND60.

The other side of the world can surely feel my take’s theme this week. This is my niece’s floater and was shot when we had our beach getaway at Laiya, San Juan, Batangas last May. March to May are our summer months here in my part of the woods. Here’s another shot of the pink floater enjoying the beach and having fun with her “suitor”.

Bright and red lanterns inside the cafe we dined at the other weekend making the ambiance more conducive to hearty and big feasting. This is the first time we ate here and I love the dining experience..from the sumptuous food to the elegant and homey interiors to friendly staff.

This is my 16-month-old son’s corn soup when we dined at Tokyo Cafe for our Father’s Day lunch the other weekend. He loved it that he consumed it in minutes.

Tokyo Cafe’s Garlic Creamy Hamburg Steak.

“Did you ever see the customers in health-food stores? They are pale, skinny people who look half dead. In a steak house, you see robust, ruddy people. They’re dying, of course, but they look terrific.”
~Bill Cosby

From a chocolate banana parfait to a sinfully delicious chocolate s’mores cake, now comes a Garlic Creamy Hamburgh Steak photo share. My apologies if I’ve been getting you drooled for the recent photo sharing I’ve been doing. Believe me, I don’t mean to have them uploaded simultaneously. Those are really the recent photos me and the husband took in the last few days. As I’ve blogged, we had a sumptuous Father’s Day lunch at Tokyo Cafe last week, thus, all the tastefully looking and tempting food photos. Our tummies were the most satisfied and I tell you, don’t be surprised if the next photos I am photo sharing are diet pills. Haha! Hubby thinks that he’s gained a kilo in a span of just one week. Lucky me I don’t gain weight that fast so I’m not worried even if I glutton.

Hubby’s shot of one of the very healthy servings at Sonya’s Garden, where only all-organic foods are served. These are the perfect fillings for a very hearty and healthy sandwich. Have you tried tasting it?
