Puto bumbong lovers, your favorite holiday treat just got a Wendy’s glow-up—ready for a twist on tradition?

It’s payday, the perfect time to treat ourselves, especially with the ever-changing weather in the Philippines. For fans of traditional Pinoy desserts , there’s now a new twist to enjoy your puto bumbong . Carmina ordered’  Wendy's Philippines ’ latest offering—the Putobumbong Frosty —available in two sizes: 6oz for 87.85 pesos ($1.49) or a tub for 125.35 pesos ($2.12).  She opted for the tub, skipping the smaller size entirely. The classic puto bumbong, made from purple sticky rice with grated cheese and latik sauce , gets an upgrade in Wendy’s version, which adds leche flan , rice crispies, and creamy vanilla frosty. A sweet treat perfect for those with a sweet tooth. Carmina preferred it served separately, as the puto bumbong is hard and chewy to eat. I guess I’m just used to having it without ice cream. That’s just my preference—others might enjoy it as it is. NOT SPONSORED. Check out my channel where you can find my videos at  Carmina Lifestyle YouTube Channel ...

Santa Cruz Boardwalk in Santa Cruz, California

Santa Cruz Boardwalk use to be one our hang out when we’re single to visit a beach that is close by and hang out with your friends. No need to wear swim wear to explore in the beach to play with the water and be so carefree. When we’re young and single our world was so colorful we didn’t have problems. We had more time to figure out what we want from our life and the future dreams.   Note: Carmina is not selling or advertising for just a place I use to hang out with my friend.

The Pantry in Dusit Thani Manila Hotel in Makati, Philippines

Every once in awhile my family loves eating in a buffet restaurant to try different dishes cooked from other countries in one place and this way we get to spend time together. This time my sister was staying at the Dusit Thani Manila Hotel in Makati. We had lunch at The Pantry before my sister was leaving from her trip back to her homeland.

Tea Time

When we’re little girls we use to pretend having miniature tea cup sets playing with our close friends having a cup a tea with some cookies to match with our conversation. Now, we’re all grown up we can have a cup of tea at Dusit Thani Manila Hotel in Makati served during Afternoon Tea in the Del Club Lounge.  The great part the atmosphere is elegant to have a cup of tea of different flavors. You get to experience something different tasting different mini sandwiches and pastries that come in a tower. Enjoy yourself to experience something worthwhile you're in town! NOT SPONSORED.
