The heat is on in Manila and I swear it’s not advisable to stay at home without aircondition. This doesn’t matter if you can pay for it!!! But if you are saving bucks then it’s time for some alternative… You can hang out in the mall ALL DAY!!!

If you are a blogger like me or you work from home, then you can bring your laptop to coffee shops with blasting aircondition and work there for 8 hours!!! YES!!! I’ve tried this once in Krispy Kreme. But if 8 hours is too much for you, you can just stay for 4 or 5 hours lol… Really, if you’re working, you wouldn’t notice how time flies fast.

Anyway, 10am and it’s very hot in our room so we went to Starbucks nearby and ordered myself some Chamomile tea! It only costs Php 90 and the served it with honey. I told them to serve it to me in a cup, that way I can refill it later with hot water (since the tea leaves are still ok for brewing). Then they gave me honey on the side.

Since I love bread, I ordered a bagel which costs Php 35. But, it is a very big bagel that it will definitely fill your tummy!!! If you want cream cheese with it, you add Php 20 more bucks… but I’m okay with the free butter and jam that comes with it ^_^. I was full with the bagel. and my total bill is Pho 125 – NOT BAD!!!

Sometimes, if you want a healthier alternative to frappes and doughnuts that can make you fat then order something healthier like a simple brewed tea (not the lattes or the ones with cream and sugar) and healthy bread (wheat bagel).

Till next time… STAY HEALTHY FOLKS!
