Shannon Reviews: Tyler Perry's Single Mom's Club

Sooo this was kind of the last movie that I saw on Spring Break, but I think it'll be the first movie out of theaters, so I'm going to review this first. I don't think I've ever actually seen a Tyler Perry movie before, I know he doesn't let critics screen his movies, which I respect. I don't think his movies are meant for critics to see because they aren't films critics would appreciate. This was just one of those good movies about regular people in everyday life.

So I just kind of wanted to see this movie, it looked pretty funny so when my friend said "hey let's see single moms club" I was like "sure!" And I was pleasantly surprised by it! I thought it was a fun enjoyable movie, but it also had strong female leads with good story lines. The way that the friendship formed between the women was really nice in my opinion. It was just an organic and natural type of friendship but it also had meaning because they were going through the same thing and it was a real bond that these ladies had.

Another thing I really liked about the movie was that it had good parent/child relationships too. It didn't show them as overly perfect like in a lot of movies, but it was real. I felt that it was loving and strong and realistic.

Also this movie had the hottest guys in it! Ohhh my gosh all the love interests in this movie were really hot. The only two I know are. Tyler Perry and Terry Crews, who are both good looking and funny, but the other three who are less famous and all names I don't know are INCREDIBLY HOT !!! Terry Crews was hilarious too!

I mean there were problems with the movie. It isn't like years from now people will be comparing it to Citizen Kane or anything like that... But how many people have actually sat through all of citizen Kane. I feel like a few of the moms at least got their hair done like in the middle of shooting the movie, so it isn't always consistent. Also they kind of added some backstory that was really just thrown in out of no where. It's just a cute story that's fun to watch with a friend. I would definitely recommend it. It's just fun!


Byeeee!

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...
