Motherhood is a journey best travelled with friends.

[UPDATED with round-up below. Sorry for the delay, folks.]

It’s the final week for Fab Holiday Finds and the theme is RED and/or GREEN.

Please leave a comment here if you joined this week. Round-up will be done by tomorrow, Wednesday, morning. My family is travelling back to Manila from Baguio today. *sigh* Vacation is always over too soon.

Anyway, it’s been fun hosting this meme and playing it with you! Next month we resume the Lunch Box Meme. We hope you could play along again.

Fab Holiday Finders: 

 

 

Next week’s theme: WHITE

See you all again then!

 

 

 

 

Only two days to go and December finally rolls in.

In case you haven’t noticed, mornings in the past week have been a lot cooler. Homes and streets are starting to light up one by one. Traffic in the Metro has become more horrible, and malls are full with shoppers even on weekdays.

Christmas is officially here!

To usher in this wonderful season, FMB is hosting a meme called Fab Holiday Finds.

The mechanics are simple:

1.You shop for holiday finds - they could be decor, food, gifts, the clothes you got on 70% off. You can also share about a certain shop or bazaar that simply dazzled.

2. To make it more interesting, let’s do a “colors of Christmas” theme per week. But to give everyone more time to prepare, week 1 won’t have a specific color theme.

  • Week 1: any color
  • Week 2: White
  • Week 3: Silver
  • Week 4: Gold
  • Week 5: Red and/or Green

3. Post photos on your blog. Don’t forget crucial information such as where and how much. Grab the badge above if you please.

4. Drop a comment on the round-up post here on FMB, so we can link bank and visit you. As with the Lunch Box Meme, we’re doing this every Tuesday this month.

It’s not just the season of buying and spending. It’s also the season of sharing. So please join us and share your fab holiday finds. Let’s see what’s in your stash. :)

Fab Holiday Finds start on Tuesday, December 2.

The Lunch Box Meme will resume in January 2009.
