Colorful [Makulay]

@ mirandablue
Ito ang makulay at kakaibang interior ng lumang Cafe Juanita, isang restaurant sa Pasig.  Lumipat na kasi ang Cafe Juanita pero malapit lang naman ang nilipatan sa dating lugar.  Isa ito sa mga paborito kong restaurants---masarap ang pagkain, abot-kaya ang presyo at kakaiba ang ambiance dito.  Mas maaliwalas ang bagong Cafe Juanita at nandon pa rin ang kakaibang interior design.  Pero nakaka-miss ang intimate at kitschy charm ng lumang Cafe Juanita.

This is the colorful and unusual interior of the old Cafe Juanita, a restaurant in Pasig.  Cafe Juanita had transferred to a new address just across its old location.  This is one of my favorite restaurants---they serve delicious food at affordable prices, and I love the ambiance here.    The new Cafe Juanita is more spacious and the eccentric interiors that has become its signature are still there.  But I miss the intimate and kitschy charm of the old Cafe Juanita.

Limestone pillar [Watery and Outdoor Wednesday]

@ mirandablue
One of the  limestone pillars in the middle of Maqueda Channel in the Caramoan Peninsula.  Prior to the arrival of the Spaniards in the 15th century, it was determined that the place was once called Guta de Leche, which was given by Dutch traders who operated a gold mine in Lahuy Island and who frequented the area to trade with the natives. The name was perhaps derived from the milkdrop stalagmites found among the rocks of Guta Port. Upon the arrival of the Spaniards, the place came to be called "Carahan" for the sea turtle, which was at that time to be found in great number along the shores of the Peninsula.  (Source:  Wikipedia)

Slim Santas [Ruby Tuesday & My World]

@ mirandablue

I don't know what happened to Santa but I've never seen him this thin before.  A result of recession, perhaps?  Or Santa took his no-carbs diet too seriously?  I envy Santa's waist line!

Elves or whatchamacallit---these whimsical creatures would definitely add cheer to the holiday decor.  All these were designed by Weenee Lagdameo of Accent Pieces.

Male [Photo Hunt]

@ mirandablue
My favorite male---Fritz.  He gives unconditional love, a great listener, has simple needs, and he gives me a reason to go for a walk.  I am the center of his universe and he makes me laugh.

@ mirandablue
Checking out the possibilities.

Golden Clouds [SWF]

@ mirandablue
Looking at the golden clouds feels like listening to a haunting piece of music.  Straining  my ears to hear the faintest echo and capture the fading melody.  I would like to hold on to it's warmth, wishing this golden moment to linger.  But like smoke, it was fleeting...it stayed just long enough to take my breath away.
