Stuff That Happened This Week

1) Lots of Celeb Weddings- Ashlee Simpson got married to Diana Ross's son in Diana Ross's house! This is just a few short weeks after her ex husband and father of her child Pete Wentz had a baby with girlfriend Meghan Camper that I somehow forgot to report about. Also Gabrielle Union got married to a football player I believe, Jenny McCarthy married Donnie Wahlberg. And We also got to see pictures of Angelina Jolie's Wedding Dress, which included designs from her kids on the bottom which was adorable. I wonder what Joan Rivers would have said about that! Lol.

2) Lots of Celebrity Babies too- Carrie Underwood is pregnant, Alyssa Milano just had a baby. I think that other people announced their babies or had their babies or something of the like. Ohhh Scarlett Johansen had her baby girl. A lot of celebs are happier than ever I would say. Very nice.

3) Lots of celebrities involved in a nude photo scandal- A lot of female celebrities including Jennifer Lawrence, Victoria Justice, a lot of the girls on glee, Micheala Maroney and tons of others had their photos hacked into and their private nude pictures leaked onto the internet. This is absolutely wrong. I feel kind of like a hypocrite saying this because when it was Paris Hilton who's photos were leaked I thought "well she shouldn't have naked photos of herself on her phone in the first place." And now that Jennifer Lawrence and people I respect have their photos leaked I think "this is wrong this shouldn't happen." blahhh blahh blahh. And its true I mean lets face it, its hard to think anything that Paris Hilton does isn't just for attention and publicity. But really, it is stealing information from these girls and releasing their private information to the internet. Yeah it's just not right and its terrible. So while a lot of celebrities are happy with their new marriages and babies... there is also this which is sad.

4) Jack The Ripper revealed to be a Polish man named Aaron Kosminski- 125 years after the Jack The Ripper killings happened, we have finally found out who it was. Aaron Kosminski is believed to be the famous killer of prostitutes in London. I'm not sure I buy this. I know there are so many theories as to who it has been already, and I don't know the whole story... but I don't totally see how suddenly 125 years after the fact they can "prove" this. I'm also not completely sure that it was just one person, I'm sure Jack The Ripper inspired many copycat killers as well, so who's to say its just one guy? It's a hard thing to discover suddenly. Kind of cool that they think they found the guy, but I still think it was Johnny Depp when he got high (as in the movie From Hell... which is amazing btw.)

5) Jemaine Clement says that rumors of HBO Reunion are false- This is actually heartbreaking to me. When the news had been released about HBO picking up another season of Flight of The Conchords... I was so excited. All this bad news about the nude photo scandal and Cee Lo Green had been announced and this was all that was right with the world... and it is apparently false. Very sad, but HBO and Jemaine Clement are collaborating on another project... which is a good thing.

I don't really have many other things to say. I have a blog post on Joan Rivers already because that was important for me to post. I had a lot of feelings about Joan Rivers because I was such a fan and I love her. Not much other news could beat that, so I'm going to leave it at these 5 stories.

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...
