MISSING BACOLOD SO MUCH MY TUMMY HURTS; House and lot in Bacolod

All of a sudden I have this craving for sweets! Granted was advised by my cardio to lay off sweets a bit because my FBS stats are not that good, it’s not that bad either!
But as I’ve always had a knack for sweets since my childhood. i can finish off a bar of chocolate without any help. But what kept my sugar afloat was the fact that I do not like sodas nor coffee. And so most of the time instead of ordering a coke with my meal, I’d choose the lesser evil ice tea or juice. But nowadays, I really save on calories and what best to binge off on sweets than in the sweetest city in the country - Bacolod!
So here I’m listing out my top 3 sweet places in Bacolod.
1) Calea
Of course, who doesnt know Calea! Anyone who’s ever been to Bacolod knows or at least may have been introduced to the place. It’s home to an endless number of cake variants. The best of which are the cheesecakes and the blueberry cheesecake is to die for!  The chocolate Bomb Ice cream is also a must try! When I was last there I tried 3 different cakes and I only have a friend to share it with. I couldnt care less about the calories because it was well worth it!.  Where might you ask is Calea in Bacolod?  Well, when in Bacolod you surely wouldnt miss it since it's right smack the center of Lacson Street the most famous and perhaps the longest street in Bacolod
The person in the pic is NOT me btw...

2)  Felicia's Pastry Shop
This one is also in Lacson but you'd probably have to ask around when you want to find as it only has one branch unlike Calea which has more than 2, I guess.  Felicia's offer a similar spread as Calea but some say that most of their cakes taste better.  Sink you sweet teeth in their famous carrot cake which is a sight to behold and their chocolate praline.

3)  Bascon Cafe
This place offers breakfast, lunch and dinner and their menu ranges from Filipino to Continental.  Their breakfast meals are very sumptuous and satisfying and surprisingly affordable.  But aside from that, they also have delectable cakes and pastries to offer.  These usually come in minicakes,which comes in various assortments like cheesecakes and chiffon cakes. They also have concorde, puffiana, tortes and flans.  I particularly liked their sansrival and cosmopolitan cake.  Bascon Cafe is a quaint little joint also located along Lacson St. right beside the Camella Bacolod Sales Office.
After a quick sugar fix, I went to the Camella office to inquire the last time I was there.
Czar was there to entertain my queries and even gave me a free ice tea.

I got so excited because I want to endorse this to my uncle who is planning to move back to Bacolod. They have this house and lot package for as low as P2.5M or P15,000 a month!  But what excited me was their 3BR model called CARA! It's perfect for families with small kids.
I also inquired about their referral program so all of you who want to know more about house and lot Bacolod and Camella, please mention my blog when you call 09178955333 or email them.
I also learned that they have a 360 tour page so that you can view the subdivision without stepping out of your home.  Click here for the tour.
Visit their FB page at https://www.facebook.com/CamellaBacolodSouthOfficial/ and have a chat with their marketing officers.  Ask if they have on going promos that you can avail of.  You can also reserve online without the hassle.  Just ask them how.

Looking forward to my next visit to the Sugar Capital of the Philippines Bacolod City!

Cebu Adventure with Hubby

 I had wanted to post this since forever but did not have the time or just did not remember to have the time.  I wanted to just share about this very organized albeit sablay itinerary of mine.  Well what the heck! I consider myself an expert travel planner. Having planned countless office and family local and international trips, I even thought of putting up my own travel agency just to remind me of how good I am in travel planning.  But there are of course trips that will always run into some setbacks and even unforeseen delays and even stops that may altogether throw your plans out the window. This Cebu trip with my dear hubby was probably one of those. But if you ask my husband, this was probably on his toplist of our most unforgettable trips ever. I usually plan out by hour but since there are items in the IT that's not very familiar to me (sardine run etc), I thought to leave out the time and just run with whatever the day brings.   So here how it all ...

How knowing SEO changed my career path

It's been more than a year since I took the SEO specialization course from Coursera given by UC Davis Extension program. And boy is it a great pivoting experience so far.  As one who have been in the practice of market research for more than 20 years, venturing into a totally new field is not only nerve-wracking but also defining.  It changed my career path unexpectedly even at age 40.   It was also last year that I have concurrently been assigned as Head of SEO/SEM for the entire conglomerate.  And because of that, I have been able to practice SEO not only with one website but with 12.  One year later, I've seen these websites grow impressions by 1k% and traffic by 500% because of organic and local SEO.  It actually surprised me how powerful SEO really is in achieving traffic goals which will help you eventually grow leads. We now have a steadily increasing number of leads across the 12 brands.  But recently I have been trying to assess if I were...

Remembering our last travel before the pandemic...Part 1

Every once in a while I find myself in a trance.  I pause to reflect on what is happening in the world.  The feeling is overwhelming.   I recall the year that was. Then I remember the year before. The Pre-pandemic. What it meant for me then and what it means to me now. A world of difference. Something that I may never be able to go back to ever again. 2019...That year was when I backpacked with my husband from Vietnam to Cambodia to Thailand by land and air in 6 days- an awesome feat for someone with a chronic illness like me.  Manila to Ho Chi Mihn was supposed to bea  normal uneventful night flight but turned out to be a traumatic experience for our first time in Vietnam.  The taxi driver duped us into letting him count our money and with his quick hands was able to snatch at least P1,000 worth of Dong money from us.   We actually stayed in 2 hotels in Vietnam both of which were not worth mentioning at all.  Both were 2 star hotels whe...
