Encounter and Conti's

I was the prodigal daughter at Encounter yesterday. I have been missing in action for quite a while, then I requested for the schedule to be changed from Monday afternoons to Wednesday afternoons. I have instituted Mondays as Game Plan day at the office full of meetings and I want to be able to concentrate on those and not rush them just to make it to Encounter. My car is also color coding on that day, I usually take another car but sometimes my Mom takes it back while I'm at work so I'm stuck. And honestly I really like going to Encounter-- spending that time just talking about God and being with him and sharing your love for him--his love for me--with other people who are just as crazy as me, or even crazier :) Thanks to Team Pinugu. Lynn, Pat, Cris, Rina and Trisha for changing the schedule for me. This way I can go to work bright and early on Monday before 7, really develop ideas with people since I'm stuck till 7 :) Making up the hours for leaving early for Encounter on Wednesday :)

I came from Tita Edith's house before Encounter because she was helping me with my cash flow and financials. This had been Tito Oscars suggestions as he helped me out with my bank loan. It proved to be worth while. I love learning from Tita Edith, she explains things so well-- or in a manner that I comprehend very easily and she has so many ideas and insights that are so useful. It also helped that my nephew Kai came into the room while we worked and just hung around. He is such an amazing kid, so smart. He was able to spell out transformers with Paper clips on the bed and called to show us-- He's 5.

I kinda lost track of time and left Tita Edith's house and left at 430 when Enounter was at 430. Good thing Everest was 10 minutes away. I was late, they had already started-- and this was my requested schedule. Sorry girls, good thing I brought Strawberry Strudels from S&R that turned out to be so good-- I ended up eating most of it hihihi ;))

After Encounter Lynn, Pat, Trisha and I decided to have dinner at Conti's in Serendra. Cris had to pick her sister up and Rina had a date at the gym so they weren't able to join us.


I ordered Tofu Steak for 195 pesos. Tofu and Shitake Mushrooms-- Diet Friendly Perfect. It has actually been exciting for me to search for these Diet friendly dishes at restaurants. They taste much better than the ones I make at home-- Okay, they might have a bit more salt and oil than is required but hey.. were doing our best.. Lynn attempted to eat the Fried Rice that came with my dish but failed. Haha :))



Lynn's Molo Soup
Only 75 pesos i think?

Pat's I dont know what this is hehehe :))

It was nice to hear about whats been happening to the girls. Getting excited about our book club-- that has been way too long in the planning stage. At least now we have achieved some progress! We have a book in line. Hunger Games, recommended by new RC member Ynez. We're already planning the first themed meeting-- without having started reading hahaha :)) I'm still stuck on Snowball, Warren Buffet and the Business of Life. Yes, thats 900++ glorious pages of investing. I'm halfway-- must read faster. I am trying to focus my life right? Hence-- ONE BOOK AT A TIME!! You have no idea how difficult this is for me! I still have my other dailies and work and school readings-- but those are not "leisurely reading material." I want to read Hunger Games na!!! 
I like this picture of Pat, she looks so happy :)
