Woman Crush Wednesday: Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer

So 2 of my most recent woman crushes just happen to be two of the funniest women on TV. Abbi and Ilana are the stars of Broad City, which is my most recent obsession and they are awesome!

So first off the show is amazing! I watched the first episode and I really loved it but then missed all of the other episodes... but my friend Alyssa told me "NO! WATCH ALL THE OTHER EPISODES THEY ARE AMAZING!" And I did and they were. I mean there's a whole episode about hiding weed inside of your vagina. There's an episode where there is a blackout and Abbi has to poop and the toilet doesn't flush and her cute neighbor comes over... its just all so funny. Amazing concepts and Abbi and Ilana are just so funny and awkward and weird that they make the show all that much more amazing.

Amy Poehler produces the show also and she guests stars in the season finale and that's how I knew that this would be super funny. If Amy Poehler thinks its good, it must be good. And that just makes them all that more woman crushable... if one of my ultimate women crush has a women crush on these too ladies... that must make them the most funny and awesome women crushable ladies of ever. That makes sense right?

 For some reason this show really reminds me of myself and my friends, but we are honestly aren't that much like them really. Like I've never done anything that the two of them have done... other than in the first episode they're desperately trying to get money and usually I'm pretty broke sooo that's something I'd totally do. It's easy to relate to, even if you haven't been through any of these situations. It's a show for 20 something girls about 20 something girls and how they really are. My friends and I aren't anything like the "Friends" gang when they were in their 20s... we're like these girls, We talk about disgusting things and we over-share and we're just real. I mean there's a scene where Abbi and Ilana are skyping while Ilana is having sex. That has never actually happened to me and I don't think it ever will... but thats kind of the close relationships that we have. There are not that many boundaries.

And it seems like "Ohhh another show about girls in their 20s we totally need that" but no. It's different. It is a lot like Workaholics with girls, but at the same time its a different humor. I think guys should like it too. I'm going to force my guy to watch it eventually because I think he'll like it. It's totally something good to watch with your boyfriend or just watch with another friend thats a girl or something like that.

It's a fun show, these girls are awesome and totally make the show... I think they work nicely as a team without one outshining the other, which is good. And it's just nice to watch a show like this. Highly HIGHLY recommend.

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...
