Sugar Cookie Egg Nog = Nectar From The Gods

If you have never had Hood Sugar Cookie Egg Nog... stop reading this right now, go online and find where the nearest grocery store is that has it, and buy it right this second. It is seriously the best thing in the entire world! Okay that might be an exaggeration... let me try some and see. I'll be right back...

No, it is not! Obviously, this is only sold around Christmas time because Egg Nog is seasonal and whatnot, but this is one of those things that I think of during the summer and stuff like that and I will want it right then and there. Hood has a lot of other good Egg Nog flavors too, they have Gingerbread Cookie which is really good, Pumpkin which is okay, and their regular egg nog is good (its what Starbucks uses I believe). The Sugar Cookie one is my personal favorite. If you don't like Egg Nog, this actually tastes quite different than Egg Nog. It's a lot more like a milk shake with a cookie like taste, so I would give it a taste if you aren't a fan of nog.

For some reason one of my favorite things to do around the holidays is sit around the tree and drink Egg Nog when some really good show is on on a Sunday Night. I think its specifically Sunday because I like to have some sort of snack while watching Desperate Housewives and I remembered they mentioned Egg Nog one time, and then it sort of became my own personal tradition whenever we had Egg Nog in the house. I don't know, lol I just think Sunday is the best egg nog day.

Also I realized that sometimes in this post, I capitalized Egg Nog and Sugar Cookie and Gingerbread Cookie when I didn't really need too... but I tend to do that sometimes. I will put random caps in at random places, which I like because Emily Dickens did that also and I always thought that was cool. Not like I'm a super big fan of Emily Dickens, she kinda depresses me, but still. The random caps always looked cool to me.

Anyhoo thats about it. What are your favorite holiday drinks/traditions?For any holiday, Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanza, Festivus, Thanksgiving, Black Friday, anything at all! Let me know in the place where you can talk to me (my long name for the comment section)

Byeeeee!

Weekly Wrap Up 7.30.17

Sunday 7.23.17  Sunday was a really good day… it was kind of a lazy day for me… but my dad pretty much finished most of the painting in my room… he ran out of paint before he could totally finish it up… so he’ll finish that up soon… my mom is going to the paint store tomorrow… so hopefully he can finish it up then.  He also made some really fantastic barbecue pork… it was going to be pulled pork… but the pulling process didn’t really work… I kind of prefer the texture of it sliced instead of pulled…. idk. I like pulled pork… but this sliced pork was really delicious and flavorful and good.  We went for Starbucks and Ice Cream too… which was fun. Starbucks sends a lot of bonus stars offers after 2… so even though we go in the morning- we have to go after 2 because then we’ll get bonus stars, which my dad uses in New York because it’s a little more expensive there.  And then the ice cream… nutella ice cream with crushed oreos and marshmallow…it was del...

Scribbles About Food: Gloria Jeans Pistachio Chiller (kinda like a frap)

So since I'm doing all of the Frappuccino reviews, I thought I would give a shout out to a different coffee chain that I like... maybe even more than Starbucks! But I hardly ever go to it because A) People get your orders wrong there a lot B) I don't really live near one! So Gloria Jeans has some amazing drinks called Chillers that are like Frappuccinos, but they have always had a ton of really good and really interesting flavors. One of my favorite Seasonal ones is the Pistachio Chiller. They had this around this time last year also and its a really good unique flavor. Basically it tastes like pistachio ice cream... but in a frozen coffee form. Its pretty cool! And Pistachio is a pretty underrated flavor in my opinion. I don't get it enough, but I always love Pistachio and Almond flavored desserts and this in particular is really flavorful and just a really good chiller. I don't think there is anything at starbucks that compares to it really, its really different...

Throwback Thursday: Crazy Ex Girlfriend Season 1

One of my favorite shows is the very underrated Crazy Ex Girlfriend... and when I say underrated I mean the ratings are bad... I'm pretty sure there is a lot of critical hype that is very real and worthy of that sort of hype... I honestly didn't watch it live at all this year until the finale... it was all in my DVR... I had lost a little bit of interest to be honest after the first episode... but I bingewatched it all in one day pretty much and it was great... but that's season 2... let's go back to Season 1. If you're only familiar with Season 2... Season 1 isn't quite as dark. It's definitely more silly than Season 2. It isn't like the darkness and the drama isn't there, it just isn't quite as dark. I have a feeling the show is getting progressively darker, and the Season 2 finale was definitely the darkest so far. The show is meant to be a different spin on a Rom-Com. The girl moves across the country for a guy that has a girlfriend alrea...
