This is a random post

Hi. This is Sabrina. I am quite busy with desktop publishing stuff right now. I will try to get everything done today so I can answer facebook messages and emails already. Bear with me. There's only one me for a lot of things. I haven't been able to taste every food that comes out of the kitchen these past couple of weeks. I will get to everything one at a time, I swear.

Baby steps. Baby steps.

Strawberries


If it were up to me, I'd always make strawberry cheesecake with fresh strawberries. Sadly, we are in Cavite, where strawberries are a rare sight. Although I did notice that Waltermart [Dasma] have strawberries more often than the other nearby supermarkets.

HOORAY.

Greeting Tarp Design

[This is the last time I am going to tell the world how much I love this kid. I love you, wari.]






Excuse my attempts to shove my mediocre skills in your faces. I design tarps, too. And oh, free greeting tarps for 100++ heads reservation. I don't use Monotype Corsiva and I won't unless it is a matter of life and death.

Invitation Design


I dabble in a lot of things. One of them is basic graphic design.
I've been thinking about including invitation design in our packages. But I need validation.

Tell me, are these good enough?

My Niece's Invitation

This was the invitation I designed for my best friend's wedding.  Sadly, he ignored it, and resorted  to a much simpler design but it's his wedding so yeah, nothing i could do about that.



I never really ask for other people's opinion when it comes to these things but I need them now. Thank you.

Sweet!

I am sorry I am not sorry for the post spam today.

Here's another one:


Yes, we bake. And yes, you MUST place your orders and 50% down payment 7 days before scheduled pick-up/delivery should you be interested in placing an order at all because baking requires a lot of time and care and quality ingredients that can only be purchased with money. :)

If you drop by our site next week, you might be offered a free taste of one of those things on the list.

I'll be posting some pictures later.

Minimum Orders


July 2013

Hi. My name is Sabrina, your beloved Mang Romy's daughter. I felt the need to delete to old posts just because...just because I feel like now is "the" start of something new. And no - I am not quoting a Highschool Musical song.

As some of you might already know, my pops has been dealing with the most aggressive type of brain tumor. Yep. You read it right. So before I completely stray from the real intention of this post, I am gonna leave it at that: my dad's sick and it's sad.

But the business has to keep on going - and growing. And y'all going to have to trust me like you did my pops.

Pretty, pretty please. Trust me; trust me with the changes, trust me with the quality of food and service, trust me and my unconventional ways. Not to say I won't make mistakes because I have already made a few (more than a few) these last 5 months, but I promise you less mistakes as the days progress.

One important thing you have to know is I am not big on giving discounts. I am going to be transparent and tell you that we don't get to keep a substantial amount from our earnings. Almost everything goes to our employees' salary, electricity bills, water bills, phone bills,tax,grocery and local market items (because we have to have something to cook for you because that's what we do), gas, truck rental fee (yes, we don't have a truck of our own and it sucks)... I can't even remember the last time I purchased a brand new clothing item. Thank God for ukay-ukay. And yes, we need our own truck.


Hence, the price hike. The last price increase happened at least five years ago.

AT LEAST FIVE YEARS AGO.

I think we can all agree that it's about time [for an increase].

Thank you, and please bear with me.

P.S.

Another thing is I stutter a lot on the phone and in person. But please don't let it lead you into thinking that I don't know what I am saying. Another thing is I bake pastries. So if you have a sweet tooth, you don't have to go very far.
