"the book" that caught my eye.

Friday morning. 6am. Still not the mood to go home and I just dont know why I don't have the urge to go home early. I think it was just one of those days that I want to stay out of the house. hmm. Stayed at the office, since some of my colleagues are still present and working on something, while I was messing around them - hehehe - had breakfast with them. After and hour or so of staying late at the office, we all went home.

On my way home, a friend coaxed me to meet him at Ayala MRT station and have breakfast together. Since I'm still not in the mood to go home, I did met up with him. First plan was to ate at McDonald's but we ended up at KFC :) Chat to the max, exchanges of stories and making sure that we will watch the Harry Potter 7 together this coming weekend. Talked about his bestfriend - my long overdue date! hahaha. oh well, hopefully that date will happen soom. We ended up the conversation past 11 in the morning. We parted ways.

I passed thru the Malls in Ayala. Went inside the department store for a while to check out some clothes and moved on since its already about noon and I should rest my head. However, I really have to make this stop at a book for less store. And glad thing that I did. A particular book caught my eye - hardbound, with a profile of a woman focusing on the lips as the cover and titled "The Lady, the Chef, and the Courtesan". I flipped it over and read the summary at the back and the inside page and there I read "According to a Latin American proverb, in order for a woman to discover her power over men, she must learn to be a lady in the living room, a chef in the kitchen, and a courtesan in the bedroom. After perfecting the grace and elegance of each, a woman will ultimately understand her own potential in life, and the command she has over everyone around her, including herself" - that paragraph really intrigued me so I did not let go of the book and try to look for another one since the book is 2 for 99pesos only. Luckily, I found another interesting book by Candace Bushnell - The Lipstick Jungle.

So after paying for the book, I went home. And started reading some pages of it. Will tell you more about it, once I'm done reading the book!

here were the book cover:
