Aching for a Sewing Machine

As days go by, my demand for customizing my own clothes have been bugging me and I feel like I want to give in. All day, I’m thinking about designs of a new dress, or baby stuff, or curtain and pillowcase details. I want to sew my own stuff and materialize my own designs.

I found these home sewing machines quite nice:

1. Brother BM-2600 Entry Level Sewing Machine that handles all kinds of fabrics

“Featuring a stitch selection dial with specialised stretch, decorative stitches, and stitch width and length adjustment dial, the BM-2600 is a delightful entry-level sewing machine to work with. It can handle all kinds of fabrics with its needle threader and large bobbin capacity.”

2. Brother LS-2160 Lightweight Sewing Machine with Twin Needle

“All the basic features you'll need are packed in this lightweight model -- automatic buttonhole, decorative, twin needle and more. The LS2160 is perfect for basic sewing and mending.”

So now I’m surfing the net for these and found out I couldn’t purchase any of them locally. I found a BM-2600 on the ebay but the seller doesn’t do postage/shipping. What should I do now???

See the Brother website for these items.

Taking Healthy Options as a Mom-To-Be

My recent trip to the mall did not end in vain. I found my way to a Healthy Options store in search of nuts, granola bars and healthy snacks pregnant women ought to eat. Lately, I've been feeling guilty eating a lot of salted adobo nuts, flavored popcorn and yummy junk food. As calories, sodium and cholesterol pile up in unknown numbers, my guilt has been piling up too.

I found Mommy Bars and Blueberry Granola Bars interesting. Plus, I took a little trip to the body care department and found Chamomile Deo Body Spray and  Jason Cocoa Butter Lotion for my growing bump. I'm totally conscious over stretch marks and I feel like my skin really needs a lot of healthy moisture, rather than chemical-made moisturizers. 

Total cost  for the 4 items: P1300.00.
