Another food craving for Rodic's Tapsilog yielded a surprise trip to UP Town Center. Whenever we pass by the area, Patrick always wishes to visit the new shopping destination but we've always run out of time. Today, he finally fulfilled his wish and we spent about three hours just walking around the place and visiting the shops.

Our first trip to UP Town Center

When in UP Diliman: Rodic's and The Chocolate Kiss Cafe
19 October 2016
Patrick and I rarely go out on our own. We usually bring the kids with us because it's really nice going out as a family. Also, we don't have a babysitter so we just bring them with us :) But today, we thought it best that they stayed where they were since we were attending a cremation for Patrick's uncle on his mother's side. At the back of my mind, I was already thinking about where we'll head to for lunch and naturally, when we're in the UP area, my first thought was Rodic's Diner.Happy Birthday Dylan!

This may sound funny but last week we were at UP for Patrick's photo shoot. When we asked Dylan what he wanted to do for his birthday, he told us he wanted to go biking at UP again. So, the birthday boy got his wish. We went back to UP and took the kids biking again. :D
After a few satisfying runs along the street, everyone was tired and needed a rest. Fortunately, there was a Mamang Sorbetero selling dirty ice cream :) It was such a treat having something so cold and yummy after the bike runs. It also takes Patrick and I to our childhood of visits to the park. Such simple pleasures are truly to be treasured.
Naturally, after all that exercise, we were ravenous and Rodic's is the best place to satisfy our hunger :) Though we just had Tapsilog from the same place the previous week, we still want more!!! :D
After, I cooked Dylan's favorite pasta for dinner. If I cooked chili prawns for Dana, Dylan also deserves my cooking :) And of course, pasta is my other specialty hahahaha I guess you could say I had a few satisfied customers that night LOL
Dylan, my baby boy, it's tough that you're beset by your slight AD/HD and speech problems. It's tough having to learn and it's tough on me to teach you as well. But I'm proud that we're pulling through it together, that I see a lot of improvement. I'm also fascinated by how your mind works, how you perceive things. You're no ordinary son, that's for sure and you make me happy in ways that I simply cannot count. Happy Birthday! We love you!!

Tagging along on a Photoshoot for Top Gear Philippines
March 10, 2012
In Patrick's line of work, sometimes you have to compromise and combine work with pleasure, especially when he has to work during the weekends. On this day, he was scheduled to interview a cousin, Jan Paul (technically he is my uncle by blood relation but he's younger than me so we just call each other cousins for simplicity), because his car will be featured in the magazine for their Japanese Issue.
So, while they're busy with their work, the kids were busy with riding their bikes and just having a terrific time. You don't have to worry about them bumping into other bikes like you would if you go to Quezon Memorial Circle. You also won't worry about other cars passing even though technically we're in the parking lot. It's just nice to be out and about in the park, enjoying the sun and the breeze, eating your morning taho.
What better way to end the photo shoot/bike trip than with tapsilog at Rodic's :)

Trip to UP Diliman and Rodic's
One facet of Patrick's job as a writer for Top Gear Philippines is having his weekends devoted to car events and photo shoots. Well, during this weekend, the kids and I tagged along just to have the chance to breathe some fresh air among the trees and the gardens of UP Diliman.
The first order of the day was eating taho!
Then walking along the path and finding a creek and a log to sit on. There were plenty of butterflies - yellow, white and black - that were flitting around. Such a pretty sight. Too bad I only had a camera phone - too slow to catch one.
After much running around, we found a log to sit on. Dana had her thermos and they shared a cup or two to refresh themselves.
Dylan became very invigorated as you can see!
So while Patrick was busy working, we were busy playing and we weren't getting into each other's way. We ended our trip with tapsilog at Rodic's Diner. Yummy!! That was a good day out :)
