Spa for Hubby

Saturday, January 23rd, 2010

We don’t have a bath tub at home. So, whenever we stay in hotels or accommodations with a bath tub, I never fail to give my Hubby a spa treatment. That’s my way of treating him after a busy and stressful day.

My li’l girl loves to help me bake. I, on the other hand loves to bake but  is worried of finishing all the baked goods as I have a sweet tooth. So, as much as I can, I try to avoid baking cookies and cakes except on special occassions or when we have to give [...]
