Popping Popcorns at Garrett!

-
Outside Universal Studios Singapore, you'll find a row of mouth-watering Western food establishments to satisfy your hunger. One particular store caught our attention...well I guess it was due to the line that doesn't seem to fall below 15 waiting customers.

I've first heard of Garrett Popcorn from fellow blogger and friend Richard who told me not to miss this when we visit Sentosa. On our way out, I made sure to follow Richard's advice and boy were we glad we did!

Inside the tiny store that's adjacent to the Hershey Chocolate shop, we focused on the board that listed the different flavors available. There were five flavor options and we chose the Chicago Mix which is a sweet-salty combination of cheese and caramel popcorn. My mouth waters as I patiently wait in line, from the back of the store I can see the perfect round popcorn in their glass shelf.

We just got a small bag ($6) to share. Personally, I would have gotten the 1 Liter Tin Can to bring home if only we won't be visiting another country after Singapore and we were only on our 2nd day so I fear that the popcorn would be stale by the time it reaches my family.

I'm glad we made the right choice. I love how perfectly coated both caramel and cheese popcorns were. It somehow reminded me of our local Chicago Popcorn only this one is way more cheesier and caramel-y. Despite being so full with dinner and coffee, we couldn't resist but eat almost half of the bag upon reaching our hotel room.

How I wish there will be more Garrett shops around Singapore and soon here in the Philippines.

Franny Mommy Finds : Happy Noz Sticker Patch

As a parent, I have one thing that I dread the most and that's when any of my kids fall sick. From the moment we detect the faintest sniffle followed by sneezes and runny nose, we know one thing is for sure -- we will be having a couple of sleepless nights. For twins, it is very common that when one falls sick, expect the other one to follow suit in just a matter of days, sometimes within hours even.  A few years ago, my twins would catch a cold and we really would struggle because they'd become very fussy and cranky at night. They're sleepy and tired from the cold but with a clogged nose, they can't really have a restful night and this means, either one of us will have to sit up and carry them all throughout the night. It came to a point wherein both kids were sick and Paul and I eventually caught the bug too. It was just so hard to care for the kids while you're not in the best condition as well. This got me researching on remedies on how we can have a good night ...

Bag of Beans (Charito) in Tagaytay

I can't believe that we have been frequenting Tagaytay for more than a decade now and not once have I written about Bag of Beans ! I tried searching all over this blog and I found..nothing. To think that not a single trip to Tagaytay, back then, would ever be complete without stopping by Bag of Beans for lunch or merienda. I must have been to engrossed with their coffee and bread that I wasn't able to take photos of the place and their food thus no blog entry. They, after all, have one of the best brewed coffee in Tagaytay and the yummiest bread to go with it too. Bag of Beans has been an institution in Tagaytay. Just like us, other tourists and visitors would make sure to drop by in order to grab a bite or to take home some of their homemade goodies every time they find themselves in Tagaytay. Bag of Beans started with one branch along the Tagaytay-Nasugbu Main Road across Residence Inn Zoo and it wasn't even overlooking the Taal. While they may lack in having a scenic ...

IKEA Singapore Pyjamas Party

For those who have watched the movie 500 Days of Summer starring Zooey Deschanel and my ex-boyfriend Joseph Gordon-Levitt, you probably also loved this scene: Paul and I are regular shoppers of IKEA . It's highly possible that someday, we will be able to furnish our future home with IKEA furniture pieces and items as it has been our go-to place since our 1st day here in Singapore. We would joke that if only we can live in IKEA, we probably would go for it. Well, who would have thought that the opportunity would come for us to "spend the night" in IKEA? A week ago, Paul and I were chosen to be one of the lucky few to join the exclusive IKEA Pyjamas Party . It was a 4-hour event starting at 11PM and we were told to come in..what else?!...our PJs. We were too shy though so we just went in our comfy t-shirt and shorts. Well, some were really brave and came in their full PJs complete with fluffy bedroom slippers! This event was to launch the 2015 IKEA catalogue also...
