What happened to Crafting Time?
2013 had been good to us! Bazaars, workshops, Shuttle sales! Yes, natitinda ako sa shuttle service! talagang career ang pagbebenta ng anik-anik! 
since the year has been good to us, and we worked really hard, its time to celebrate my birthday in Cebu where i was born... :) Nanay was from Cebu, dun nya nga ko pinanganak, but she's beeen in manila for over 30 years na...  (u can now guess my age hehehe ), but she never have stepped in the beautiful Island... Banatayan Island! grabeh! super ganda...
