November 2014: It List

1) Yes Please by Amy Poehler- Amy Poehler has a book now! And it is kind of amazing! Not kind of, really amazing and funny and really good. This will probably take me a little longer to read because its too big for me to bring on the train... plus I like extending reading these books so that I can feel like I'm bffs with these women for a long time. Lol. I love Amy Poehler and I love that she has a really funny book out.

2) Horns by Joe Hill - I just finished this book and did a review on it... I loved it. I also did a review on the movie... didn't love that so much, but the book is really detailed and had lots of twists and just kept me interested all around. It was so sooo good. It's my kind of horror book because it had a little bit of everything. There was humor, some science fiction elements, a mystery that was very real. The end was really cool. Overall great book!

3) Jiff Whips Pumpkin Spice- This is delicious. It's a peanut butter spread that tastes like Pumpkin Pie. I use it on Graham Crackers and Pumpkin Eggo Waffles... which are also delicious. Sooo soo good overal. Really really like it!

4) American Horror Story- You probably know I have a bit of an obsession with AHS... but this year I feel more obsessed. This was the first time I was really seeing the connections between the seasons... so I'm kind of trying to watch them all at once and see what's connected and stuff. It's been really fun. I have a super

5) Dunkin Donuts Sugar Cookie Latte- This latte is amazing! Its so sooo good I need to have it more often... these are just absolutely amazing. I get it hot cause its cold out. I guess you could get it iced too but you know. Its really really good. Lol.

6) Hood Egg Nog- Its a bit early for Egg Nog yet... but hear me out. Hood Egg Nog is amazing. They have different flavors. Right now I haven't been able to find my 2 favorite flavors Sugar Cookie (the absolute best thing that exists) and gingerbread. Right now the Pumpkin Egg Nog is out and that is perfect for right now. Its just yummy and amazing. They also have "Golden" Egg Nog, which I think is just regular... I'm not quite sure. Hood is what starbucks uses in their egg nog lattes. Its damn good. Lol.

7) Cashmere Glow- Lately I've really been loving this scent. Its just such a lovely warm scent, perfect for fall and winter. It smells like peach and vanilla and sandalwood... I just really love this scent. Especially this time of year! This is from Bath and Body works, btw!

8) It Cosmetics Naturally Pretty Celebration Palette- I can't even with this palette. It is sooo soo good! Its a beautiful all matte neutral palette and its very VERY neutral, so at first I was kinda like... hmm idk about this... but yes. It is amazing. It comes with a transforming ombre pearl shade that is supposed to give the shadows a shimmery finish... it kind of makes the color a little different, but it still looks absolutely beautiful. I love this palette!

9) Purple- Lately I've been loving the color purple and Idk why. Different shades too. Mostly I've been liking a lighter purple thats very bright... almost like a pinky purple. I got these leggings from American Eagle that are purple and have flowers on them and then I got a sweater from Target's Mossimo line to go with it... and I've just really been liking the color purple lately. I also have purple glasses so it all kind of goes. I know it isn't all that fallish, but I like it anyway!

10) Burger Shop 2- I've been playing this game the past couple days... and it is addictive. I like playing it around this time of year and idk why... I guess cause its cold and I don't like leaving my house that much. lol. I play this on games.com btw if you're looking to find it!

11) Too Many Cooks- I feel the need to mention this one. I don't know that I completely get it... but its pretty damn funny. And it was stuck in my head all weekend... along with All About That Bass. They hadn't been stuck in my head until I'm mentioning it now.... ohhh god.

That is everything! I hope you guys are having a fun month. I love doing these posts and I will have some more holiday-themed ones along with regular ones throughout the next few months... so keep that in mind.

12) Serial- I'm listening to this podcast right now... And it is awesome. I'm really digging it. It's a podcast murder mystery serial and I'm on episode 2 and I'm confused and I need to know what happens! I love mysteries and this one is great.

Byeee!

Scribbles About TV: Jane The Virgin Finale Review (SPOILERS)

So.... Can we talk about all the twists because there were a lot! I didn't even see all of them coming! Alrighty we start out in typical Jane The Virgin Mode with Jane's choice between Raphael and Michael... I'd be okay with either but I think I'm team Michael. Jane has a weird moment with Raphael and thinks she's better off without him and just having him be the father of her child. She's also starting to have some feelings for Michael again. Then she almost has the baby on the bus and some woman helps her and gets the bus driver to take her to the hospital. Rogellio and Xo are in Vegas and they get drunk and can't remember what happens, but they make it just in time to see Jane deliver a baby boy. I knew it would be a boy! Lets pause on that a little and go to Michael and his ex partner/friend with benefits who comes back says she has a lead on Sin Rostro, gives him an address where the plastic surgeon is and by the time Michael gets there, he's de

Disney Store Closing Haul

So if you read my post from yesterday- you know that I love The Disney Store, but it is unfortunately closing. I did pick up some things from the store that I thought I'd share with you guys! I did get a couple of t shirts. One is a Star Wars shirt, which is technically a men's shirt but I thought it looked really cool and I don't like that Disney doesn't carry the same things for men and for women. For the most part they look unisex to me and a lot of their men's stuff has characters I like better. Like the star wars shirt for women was grey with pink lettering and had no pictures, but the mens shirt had a really cool metallic silver logo on black clothing with pictures of all the new characters and Luke inside of the letters... much cooler! So I got that! The other shirt I got is really funny and it has Sleeping Beauty on it and it says "I Woke Up Like This." Which I really liked! Super cute and funny and my niece likes it when I wear shirts with c

Scribbles About Life: 3.10.16

Soooo... I don't really want to post about my day... but I don't really want to post anything else either. I started writing something about female characters in movies and TV... but I just didn't like what I was writing and... idk... I was a blog writing machine this week and now I feel defeated. I wrote a ton on Monday and Tuesday and now I just don't feel like doing a post today... but I want to write still... So I'll talk about things that I guess are on my mind lately... Idk. So I got this Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor... and for some reason... I'm addicted to the way that it smells. Idk why, it smells like cherry medicine... but I also sort of like it. Its more cherry than medicine... and I can't smell it on my lips... but Idk. I keep smelling it in the tube. I got some cute stuff from American Eagle yesterday too! I got a dress and a romper... I do not own any Rompers... except this one... but it looked good on me and it didn't make me look f
