The Blog and Soul Movement

Don’t you just love the title? I would like to thank the young couple Gerwyn and Sheryl See for the great food and venue. I wish them the very best in their relaunch of the Mrs. Fields franchise. Anton Diaz has some fast facts about the rebranding of the 30 year old franchise that I grew up with. Small world too - Gerwyn and Sheryl come from UA&P, which is the same university I graduated from. They are two batches ahead of me.

There are many more people I would like to thank:

Marcelle Fabie, also known as Kel for putting on a great show that night. Folks, if you are in need of a good host and mentalist for your events, Marcelle is readily available and easy to book.

Nikki Dy-Liacco for sharing with us her experiences as a writer and how she launched her childrens’ book - and her blog, which she uses to complement her publication. The Yellow Paperclip with Bright Purple Spots is currently on its second print run. It has won various literary awards

Ces, Alma and the rest of the people from Momentum, who helped coordinate the event with Mrs. Fields.

Everyone who attended the event. Without your company, the event would have been meaningless. Honest.

Please send me more links to your posts

I’m the branch’s very first customer! Bought a 14-inch choco chip cookie cake for P1,100.00

Again, thank you all for coming. As for Blog and Soul, I’m sure you will agree that success isn’t determined by how many people came to the launch, but on the quality of people who want to push for this movement for the next three years. Good times ahead. Blog on!

You can view the photos I took of the event on my Multiply site. I used a Cokin filter to create a dreamy effect throughout the night.

   First to happen this week was the formal launch of the Bl…
