The date has been set and so was the place. But the traffic was a different story.

Instead of heading to the set time and place, we detoured.

But who cares? With excellent fun and bonding moments, we are getting even better with every dinner/EB we have.

Shoe paradise. Cookie (in brown) and Chateau (in aquamarine) bought a pair each of ballet shoes from one corner of the CMG shop.

We walked around looking for a place to eat, with our chatter trailing us until we reached Burgoo. We had another dinner at Burgoo a few months ago.

Chateau aka iMomOnLine, Cookie aka Scrooch Chronicles, Feng aka From Dawn till Dusk, Rowena aka The SweetLife-Rowena, me aka TeacherJulie and GreenBucks, Lynn aka TheMomZone and Avocado Express and Lady Cess aka Occupation: SAHM.

Food was served. Yummy food, all steaming hot and smelling great. Did the chatter stopp when the food came? No, we went on and on, talking about so many things, mainly about our kids, about things that interest us and sharing new things we have discovered.

After dinner, cups of decaf and ice cream cones settled down our tummies. The chatter went on and on. If it weren’t for the time, which was almost midnight, I am sure we would not stop. There are still so many topics to talk about like gardening, home and bathroom fixtures perhaps, time management tips from Lynn, door designs from Chateau, traveling to Palawan with Cookie (huh?), setting up a laundry shop like Wenchie’s, tech know-how and blogging tips from Cess, setting up a good business from Feng, and teaching tips from me.

Maybe a group project where we can do something for others and for ourselves should be planned too. Who knows, that might materialized soon. For now, we are probably planning to have another EB soon. Any suggestions, ladies?

Here is my Sunday market adventure.

Inggit ako. Buti pa kayo nagkikita-kita. I’m sure it is always a great opportunity to meet up with fellow bloggers and talk about ideas. And how much more interesting it would be with mommy bloggers?!!

That’s splendid, the eating girls with the it want to do more than eat. :) I am having word fun here. But am serious … that would perhaps bond you even more closely … a project that will be both fun and purposive. Cheers.

julie said:

Kathy, chatter is non-stop during these EBs.

We should meet when you get the chance to come home again.

Blogger events are a big thing here in the metro and it is good to meet these persons that we only read and visit :)

Thanks for the visit :)

MRC, I hope Dine was able to read my reply to her comment re organizing a CRIBS trip courtesy of the Mommy Bloggers.

We should invite you during one of our dinners, sus, nakakaloka ang nonstop chatter.

Engaging in a worthwhile project is a great idea,hubby hinted that many times over :)
