Post-birthday Post

My 27th birthday was my first birthday away from home. I was sent by my office to Bacolod from November 7-10 for PAGBA's  3rd Quarterly Membership Meeting and Seminar. The officers there decided to finish the seminar earlier, so we went overtime on the 9th and had the 10th (my birthday!) free to go shopping or whatever. So basically I got to travel for free for my 27th birthday. Not bad, eh?

That's me camwhoring on our hotel room lavatory. Damn, I need to lose weight!

Because I am more of a homebody than a travel bug (and my companions even more so), we did not really go to or do much of the usual tourist things. We just went to SM for dinner the second night and to Aida's at Manokan Country for lunch the last day (my birthday treat). BUT. Calea Pastries & Coffee was right across our hotel so I was there practically everyday for my cake fix. I had a different cake each time, but the best by far our of what I've had was the famous (and rightly so) Mud Pie:

Doesn't it look sumptuous?

So there. I actually just wanted to post those two pictures but could not find a suitable topic linking them together. Haha. Hope you enjoyed them! =)
