Image
I had the opportunity to be invited to a "food tasting" at the American Independence Menu set of Vikings Luxury Buffet at SM Lanang Premier Davao and eat like a Viking! It was a pleasant surprise to find all the new feature dishes on the menu were superb, both with taste and presentation. The staff and management of Vikings were enthusiastic about the new menu that would also be offered on weekends lunch and dinner for the whole month of July. Here are the featured dishes on the menu: Pier 39 Clam Chowder We were serve with Pier 39 Clam Chowder which is rich and just delicious. It's a comfort food- warm, creamy, and filling. Chicken Barbeque Salad I personally love this healthy, flavorful salad. Shrimp Popcorn This mouth-popping deep fried prawn morsels are addictive,  especially when dressed with ranch.  Cheese Sticks This cheese sticks is lightly crunchy. Great for snacks and best paired with marinara dressing. I like the Buffalo chicken win...

When I've seen these colourful bands in Instagram, I instantly browse these hashtags #loombands #rainbowlooms #loombracelets and found lots of beautiful designs of bracelets, rings, necklace, charms, headbands, etc made of loom bands. I immediately search where I could buy a kit so I could learn how to make one for myself.  When I told my nieces Kyla and Mj about this new trend color bands, they already know about it but doesn't know how to make it.

Starbucks Card Collections

Why am I collecting Starbucks Card? It started by the time I got my Starbucks 2012 Card Aroma Coffee Cups Mug Green Steam Swirl design last year during the Starbucks Davao Blogger event. It's loaded with P1,000 by Starbucks. The event happened at Starbucks SM Lanang Premier. Starbucks 2012 Aroma Coffee Cups I registered my Starbucks card and redeemed my (1) free Grande handcrafted beverage with up to two (2) free add-ons for the first time registration to my new Starbucks card account. (my favorite add-ons are java chips and coffee jelly)  https://starbuckscard.ph/SBCard.aspx It's nice to have the Starbucks card because I've used the stored value at the Starbucks Boracay Station 1 coffee shop, and Starbucks Ayala Cebu coffee shop while we're on vacation with my husband and brother. I've also reloaded it and got another free grande drink for my 12th purchased and a sweet treat of cake on my birthday.  Starbucks Boracay Station 1 coffee shop, and Starbuck...
