a beautiful week! [Litrato]
it is in fact a wonderful summer-y week we are basking in, and it’s such a pity if we spend the day indoors. since we’ve had our share of muggy if not oh-so-wet days last week, we are blessed with such a welcoming warm and dry days this time.
if you remember, itong pine na ito rin ang entry ko last week for the WET theme…yun nga lang this time…tuyong tuyo na siya…:)
see what i mean? now we’re off again to embrace the last nicer day of the week! kasi mukhang bibisitahin na naman kami ng ulan bukas!:(

a rainy summer [litratong pinoy]

Summer in Massachusetts this year hasn’t been how it was last year. We’ve had our own share of Seattle-like weather conditions, I tell ya! Somebody told me..welcome to New England! but it’s not supposed to be like this during this time of year, right? even in this part of the country!
Ilang linggo na rin kaming inuulan kung kailan bakasyon pa naman ang mga bata! Mabuti nalang noong nakaraang weekend, gumanda ganda ang panahon in time for the 4th of July celebration at kami ay nakapamasyal din sa isang theme park at naki BBQ sa aming kapitbahay na si tita Stel! thankies again!:)

Ruby Tuesday: on Virginia
this is just one part of our first day in Virginia. seeing the city/state on a clear day as compared to our first trip about 2 years ago was a total ‘awakening’ from an Easterner stand point of sorts. in a nut shell, it is absolutely cleaner, fresher and manicured with wide and lush greeneries as compared to New York and Massachusetts where we have lived during the past 5 years. even Connecticut and New Jersey in comparison, I would aptly say that I find Virginia, the northern part at least is a place where I would love to have my kids grow up in too.
From a foodie and shopaholic standpoint, it is spotted with all sorts of restaurants and specialty shops all over. and from a mother and designer’s perspective… clusters within clusters of perfectly sized and well planned residential houses are prominently appealing, that is to my standards at least.
Not to mention that our closest friends in the country [and that goes for the kids too], reside in this part of the East Coast now, before which we used to be so close by and just a few subway stations away in NY. This explains why we try as much as we can to visit each other at least once a year. or at least meet halfway just like how we did last summer when we met up at Six Flags, CT. before that, it was their turn to go up this far. this year we cruised 9-12 hours [blame it on the GW bridge traffic, on our way back home] and spent the whole spring break with the Evangelistas! thanks again for the warm and relaxing week that has put this website into a halt up until this day. hangover is hard to cure…’bringing back that blog-ving feeling’ is like a ‘last-song-syndrome’ that’s attacking me up to this very minute! next year…the Cape?

flowers, fresh or faux

…bigay ni M noong nakaraang Vday. crisis eh. recession is in the air. iisa lang. i totally understand, no worries…

taken at my cousin’s house in CT. ito nalang kaya? para hindi nalalanta? mas matipid? hmmm…
Ano ang mas gusto mo? One fresh stem is totally fine with me, more so if it comes with a special envelope. An envelope that has gift cards in it! lol!

WW: 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?

Ruby Tuesday: winter berries - a rehash

…this may be my current favorite subject during the winter season. these red winter berries [as i’d like to call them, er…as my daughter S coined it] are such a stand out against the blanket of powdery white snow grounds in front of our house. some of you might remember that i have had a few posts already having this same subject. i just can’t help taking a snap when i see those reds! this time though, i used a +10 macro lens and so they are the enlarged or zoomed in version of the previous ones. i hope you don’t get tired of them, because i ain’t!:]
