Professor Utonium sure thought well when he decided to create the Powerpuff Girls with “sugar, spice, and everything nice!” 😀  But before I completely get carried away and take a very long trip down my childhood memory lane, I’ll stick to the first ingredient: SUGAR.  THAT and a spoonful of honey on the side, please!  Mix them together and you get one ♪ “Sugar, Oh Honey, Honey” singing ME! ♫  Hahaha, sabaaaw!

Forgive me.  It’s just that you know… tomorrow’s…  tomorrow’s…  wait, what IS tomorrow, anyway? 😉  Yeeaaah, let’s stop there alright for tomorrow’s A DAY THAT MUST NOT BE NAMED!  So enough with the bitterness and ON to some SWEETNESS!  Hahaha!

I’ve been planning to write this entry for weeksss now, and I guess it’s timely since tomorrow’s Valentine’s Day.  There, I said IT.  Not that I care, thank you very much. 😛  But seriously, if you’re looking for some SWEET STUFF to buy for and give to YOURSELF (you can give them to “others” too, but that’s completely optional!  HA HA HA), I’ve two recommendations:

THE BODY BAKERY

Don’t let its name fool you!  The Body Bakery‘s actually a cosmetics line straight from the U.S. of A!  Luckily, it’s already available in the Philippines through this site.

Some of the things you can buy from The Body Bakery are their Lip Butter, Whipped Cream, and Body & Hair Icing.  I’ve been using their Lip Butter for almost a year now and I plan to be a loyal and VERY SATISFIED customer for as long as I can!  You see, aside from the fact that it really works, they also have a selection of oh-so-yummy flavors and scents!  Their best-seller’s the Wedding Cake variant, but my personal favorite’s Lavender Cream Puff! ♥

Again, trust me when I say that IT REALLY WORKS!!!  So if you happen to be in the search for the next best kikay thing, I say go give The Body Bakery a try!  Just a warning, though: try to resist eating their products because they may smell as good as freshly-baked pastries, but they’re NOT food!  At least not literally. 🙂

SOPHIE’S MOM

Now, if you’re REALLY looking for “food,” then THIS is the part where I introduce to you Sophie’s Mom.  Let’s start with THESE:

The pictures you just saw were some of Sophie’s Mom‘s creations for a London-themed party they served last year.  And dang, judging from what you just saw, you’ll already know that THIS is one very satisfied Lady!!! ♥

I’ve been reading about Sophie’s Mom for quite some time already that’s why one fateful sweldo day, I decided to treat myself to some of their delectable treats!  Yes, treat and treats.  Redundant, much?  =))  Anyway, their bakery is located in Makati but since I couldn’t go there directly (even though I also work in Makati!), I used the good ‘ol “delivery” method!  So what did I get?

I ordered:

– 1 piece each of Chocolate and Frozen Brazo Mochi Ice Cream;

– 2 pieces of Red Velvet Cupcakes (they’re homemade AND they’re topped with cream cheese!);

– 3 pieces of Nutella Mochi Truffles; and,

– 4 pieces of Stookies (they’re cookies stuffed with Oreo!)

Obviously, I tried all of their best-sellers BUT I won’t mind ordering their other products, too, the next time I have the chance!  And oh, I did NOT eat all those by myself ah!  Of course I shared them with some of my office friends, and I think they’ll also agree that Sophie’s Mom deserves a TWO-THUMBS UP from each and every one of us!  Okay, ako na ang defensive!  Rawr!!!

For more information (and better product photos!), you can check out Sophie’s Mom‘s
official site, Facebook page, and Twitter account.

So there, you’re already set for Valentine’s Day!!! 🙂

WAAIIIT…

NEED I SAY MOOORE? 😉

Keep calm and have your sweet tooth on!
