Dragonfly Desserts

It wasn't really one of my plans to buy cakes, since I'm on a no-sweets-diet because as you all know, summer is on it's way. But the lady from Dragobfly Desserts was really accommodating and after all her explanations about icings, and cakes, it's quite embarassing to just say "thank you", right? Bringing out the sweet soul in me, I bought this uber cute Snow White Sponge Cake and of course, a must-try for every store, a Red Velvet cupcake. Red velvet cake is gaining a lot of popularity these days, huh.

This Snow White cake is so cute; I found it impossible to miss. It's a vanilla spongecake covered in a very light, not so sweet pink whip cream. Yes, it's a whip cream, not a buttercream or any types of icing. The lady is so honest about it. The inside is quite firm. The only thing that I dont like about it is the heart candy on top. Gee, when I remember how it tastes, I want to throw up! It makes me feel like a blood-sucker cause it tastes like blood!

Anyway, proceeding to the Red Velvet cupcake. I only had a bite of the lovely cupcake. I dont know if it's just dark in our kitchen, or it's just doesn't possess that magical red color. I must call it the Choco Velvet? As my sister would've described its taste, "lasang mayaman" hahaha! I cant say anything bad about it. The cream cheese frosting is absolutely amazing! The texture is perfect and just enough for the tiny cupcake.

I want to try the other cakes in that store. I will certainly come back to buy some more sweets. I hope there's a nearer branch.

So I havent removed my makeup yet, I badly needed some sleep and I just got off from work but I was itching to write about my experience on the day of February. It happened the morning of the 22nd of February 2013, Friday; I was on my way home with some  friends from work(because my work in the casino starts at 11 pm of the day and ends at 7 am of the next day).

It was raining last night but I decided that everything will be answered by prayer. Hoping that the rain will stop using "The Secret" magic but then it did not stop. Instead, it got worse in the morning. I dont really like bringing umbrella, I think it's all the same: you're still gonna get wet, it's heavy, and when it's wet from the rain, it's more of a hassle, you dont know where to put it! I like to run in the rain, ALWAYS! I just bring a jacket or cardigan to cover me a little.

So here goes my story, me and my 2 colleagues, 1 is pregnant stop by our usual course. We are waiting for the stoplight to turn red. It's raining really hard and we're already soaked (since all us, even if we're girls, dont bring Rihanna's ella-eh-eh). We are already drenched when a random guy said he would help us cross the pedestrian. The lights are not turning red! The guy was holding my friend's arm firmly and the situation was turned upside down. I was the one guiding them instead. It was really funny! I was laughing really hard because we look like a complete mess! Just like Katniss Everdeen when she was looking for food to eat.

Thank God I was able to find a jeepney quickly but I didnt expect the worse. In the middle of the road, I'm starting to feel really sleepy and the medicine that I took that night for my hyperactive stomach is losing its effect. Im starting to feel "poopy" again and I suddenly had the urge to pee. It was a long long road; heavy traffic because of the rain. The thing that covers the open windows of the jeep flew and And at the opposite side of the jeep,2 men were splashed by water flood because of the other vehicle's careless driving. Funny thing number 2! Then later on, I feel something's dripping on me and I dont know how it happens, but the roof of the vehicle is giving away so much of it. I dont know where to seat! I was so hopeless.

And when I was on my village, I just need to take one more ride and Im home, tricycle. I was splashed with water, I shouted at the driver told him the rationale for riding a trike. So I was having a near death experience: cold, poop, pee, wet etc. I was proud of myself for being able to get through it.

It was a really funny experience. I usually hate everything when it rains, it brings out nostalgic emotions and makes me want to sleep even more. I dont wish for it to happen again, but it's something I will never forget; the day I had fun in the rain. . .
