Congrats Bestfriend!
After weeks of cancelling and rescheduling, I finally got to meet up with my bestfriend on Sunday. We met up, sat down for a snack, and then we stayed there for the next 4 hours. It was nice catching up, and even more exciting to hear the good news. She’s getting married next year! 🙂
Preparations are already full swing and I’ll try to help her as much as I could though, for the life of me, I have no idea about these things!
Anyway, we talked about things we’re up to and things we look forward to. It was so nice to feel grounded again; that’s what seeing her does to me. She’s always a breath of sunshine, you know? I guess because we’ve known each other so long, and were inseparable when our lives were so much simpler.
We had spent the afternoon at this place called Secret Recipe at the Atrium in Megamall. We had no idea what they served, but the cakes on the display just convinced me to step in. Here’s the cake we shared (to be honest though, I ate most of it!):
See all those alternating layers of chocolate cake and mousse filling? Yummy, I tell you! And we were so fascinated about the smooth thin layer of chocolate that coats the cake. Ahhh this cake sparked a conversation on baking too. 🙂 We also talked about my new interest in photography, and my blogs!
But the most important news of the day? Of course, it’s about her wedding in a little less than a year’s time. Her fiance is currently working abroad (in Dubai, where her mom also works) and he hasn’t sent over the ring because he wants to give it to her personally (makes sense). So she’s preparing for the wedding all by herself! Good thing she has a wedding coordinator friend who’s helping her. And myself? Well, I’ll help in any way I can. Like I said, I have no idea about these things!
Oh well, I just hope we don’t wait another six months before we get together like this. I’ve missed having girlfriends around all the time. I miss being a friend to a friend, you know what I mean?

Cute! And in fairness, the cake looks mega-yummy. I should try that store soon.

I would love chocolate and that cake looks so good! But I have to admit that I probably wouldn’t share 🙂

You know what, I wasn’t intending to share it haha! But there were two dessert forks when they served it. We were joking that they probably thought I had enough to eat being as big as I am so I should share the cake! Haha 🙂
