Golden Globe Awards Recap!

Okay so I'm writing this as the Golden Globes is still on... but Everyone I care about won already and I only really wanted to see Amy and Tina host... so yeah thats about it.
First the Red Carpet stuff was far too long and boring. They had it on for like 2 hours on NBC... which is far too long. They didn't even really show that much, I didn't see many of the dresses until I looked at a red carpet thing that entertainment weekly had. So here are some people I thought looked really good. 

As far as men go, the guys from Parks and Rec are always the most handsome. They're like my guys and aside from Rob Lowe's odd hair... they all looked really good. Particularly Pratt with his new Marvel Body and Adam Scott with facial hair... ohhh my gosh he's just swoon worthy I love him. And Aziz looked amazing and Nick Offerman... and even with Rob Lowe's hair he was just great! 

Idris Elba, Andy Samberg, Seth Meyers also looked quite nice. I love that they keep showing Idris Elba he's so pretty! And I love the Wire and he came to my school a few years ago and I hope he comes back cause that'd be cool! 

And I loved Usher's Burgandy suit. And he had some bling on it too and he just looked amazing! I really dug it. 

And for well dressed women here is my list
-Uma Thurman
-Zooey Deschannel 
-Amy and Tina 
-Aubrey Plaza- loved the purple! 
- Juliana Marguiles 
- I loved Mrs. Andy Samberg's dress actually, although it was kind of poofy, she is very beautiful and i thought she looked amazing. 
- The Brooklyn 99 girls all looked good! I wish they had shown their dress more. 
- Kerri Washington looked good with her baby bump! She's so gorgeous and talented and I've heard she's incredibly nice and I love her. 
-Ohhh and Sandra Bullock! It was kind of a weird dress but I thought it worked for her and her hair looked great! There was a lot of weird hair and make up, but I thought hers looked fantastic. 
- Taylor Swift also looked amazing, as always... which is annoying kind of lol. 
And for the winners. 

The only categories I really cared about were the tv ones and really the comedies were all that mattered to me. I don't watch many dramas... I've seen all of Orange is the New Black and LOVED it and two episodes of Scandal and 2 episodes of Breaking Bad... which were not because they were bad at all. 

I was really happy Bryan Cranston and Breaking Bad won because they were both fantastic. Although I was kind of disappointed Kerri Washington and Taylor Schilling (sp? Piper from OITNB) didn't win I was glad Robin Wright won for House of Cards because I support Netflix shows. Lol. 

As for comedy... it was a very VERY good night for television comedies. Andy Samberg winning for Brooklyn 99 in its first year was FANTASTIC! I love when a show wins its first year and I think Andy really deserves it. He doesn't seem like much of an actor, but he is amazing in it and he is just one of the funniest people in the entire world and I couldn't be happier for him. He really deserves it! I should have been rooting for Jason Bateman... but I was secretly hoping for Andy to win... although Jason deserves it too... he has won a Golden Globe and an Emmy for Michael Bluth before, and I have a feeling he will win/be nominated again, so it's Jake Peralta's year! 

And if that wasn't enough... AMY WON FOR PARKS AND REC! I was soooo sooo soooo happy. She totally was not expecting it, she hasn't won any awards for parks and rec yet and honestly the show deserves ALL of the awards. It is the best show on television right now. It started off a little slow in the first season if you were turned off by that. The second season is kinda slow too, but if you watch it a second time its brilliant. The Third Season on... all perfect. It keeps getting better where as most shows decline and get worse. I really love it and if you have a sense of humor and a brain, you should too! 

And then Brooklyn 99 won for best comedy!!!!!! I am sooo happy! This is definitely the best new show this year and even though I wanted Parks and Rec to win, I'm very happy that Brooklyn 99 did win. It is such a great show and I think it's easy for anyone to enjoy. It's very much like the Office and Parks and Rec, but the style is different enough to be enjoyable if you don't necessarily like those things... but yeah. Plus its a cop show, so if you like cop shows and want a comedy about cop shows theres that. And there really haven't been too many comedies about cops. It's kind of like what Scrub's did for medical shows. It's great just watch it. 

But by far the best moment of the night was when Tina Fey congratulated Amy Poehler for her win. "I'd like to congratulate my friend Amy Poehler on your win. I love you and there's a special place in hell for you." This is amazing for several reasons. 1) Amy Poehler won. 2) Tina and Amy are such good friends that Tina would congratulate her for her win. 3) This is an insult to Taylor Swift. Last year when Tina and Amy made a joke saying for her to stay away from Michael J. Fox's son. She said that there "was a special place in hell for women who don't respect other women" or something along those lines. If making fun of Taylor Swift gets you to go to hell... I'm probably going to somewhere wayyyy worse than hell... lol. 4) Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are good enough friends to make inside jokes insulting Taylor Swift together. Lol. 

And movies I didn't really see any but Leo Dicaprio won thats cool! He's one of my favorite actors and I think it's great that he won for something finally! And he commented how the "comedies" nominated were not exactly "comedies" in any way, nor were any of the actors comedians... that's just what they have to do to win I suppose. 

And American Hustle won a lot... so I guess thats a thing. 

Ohhh and Despicable Me 2> Frozen. By a lot. 

What did you guys think? Did you agree did you disagree. Did you think it was boring because there was not enough Tina and Amy. Do you give a hoot? Let me know!

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...
