Dessert at Dolce

It was a weeknight and there wasn't any reason for us to go out. But that night, I felt like I needed a breather after a difficult homeschool day with the kids. Yeah, the joys and challenges of being a SAHM and Homeschool! So, I was so relieved and excited when Hubby announced after dinner that we are going out for dessert and coffee. Yipee!!

Since it was 'my night', I chose where to go and we went to Dolce, the elegant looking cafe at 108 St or Thanon Roy Pet. I remember we reluctantly went there once ( last year!?) because we thought the interior looked too elegant and we might not be able to pay the bill. LOL! But we were proven wrong since their prices are almost the same with the other cafes we've been to.

So, I had a chocolate cake and a Cafe Latte'..and it was bliss!.. It was like all my tiredness and and stresses disappeared.. LOL! That was all I needed ( cake and frappe') to feel better....thanks to Hubby for the treat.

Grade 12 in the Philippines

I heard that the Department of Education in the Philippines is pushing on our elementary schools to be until Grade 12. I really haven't searched on this topic yet, but I've got a little bit of info here and there.. err..mostly rants from a few of my Facebook friends.

I can't give a strong opinion on this subject yet too, since I haven't researched about it. But, my initial reaction was actually quite negative one, since it would mean more years of study and therefore more expenses for the parents. In Malaysia, they also have a different system of education and it's longer too if you proceed to get a degree , but what I like about it is that even if one doesn't pursue a higher education and just go to Regency Beauty Schools , there are always good paying jobs available (that is if you're not too picky).

I just hope that this move (Grade 1-12) from the government will truly give our people not just a better education but more jobs too!

What about you? What's your opinion on this issue? Please share..

For the meantime, let me Google about this Grade 12 thingy and see what it really is about. :)

Cool Air and Handy Man Hubby

I love it that our front grill door already has a netting. Now, we can open our 2 front doors wide open without fear of mosquitoes getting inside our house. Thank to my Handy Man, Hubby who did all the work yesterday. Now, the cool wind from the outside ( since it just rained) can freely come inside and the whole house seems like having central aircon. :)

I wonder what's next on my Handy-Man-Hubby's list of things to do..not sure if he needs a flexible metal hose to do any future work, but it'll be nice if he can fix a mini garden in our front yard.. but wait, I think I'm supposed to do that.. Hmm.. but it won't hurt getting a little help from the expert. :)
