What I did today

Soooooo yeah here are just some thoughts and stuff that happened today that I thought I'd share.

I watched a little bit of the HBO miniseries Olive Kittenridge... or Kitteridge or whatever its called... that is a super super weird show. Just from what I saw... its all very normal things that happen that are very boring and mundane and then something absolutely crazy will happen. Then the characters will react to the crazy thing that just happened and its very very odd. Like there was one scene where Olive stops in a hospital and I think she just stops there because its close and she has to pee and then she gets talking to this nurse who notices her ears look a little red. And they have this whole boring convo where the nurse asks if Olive is allergic to shellfish, Olive says no she isn't. The nurse said someone just had a really bad allergic reaction to shellfish and that Olive should get it checked out. Olive reluctantly does and then all of a sudden some guys with guns come in and try to steal drugs from the hospital and they're about to die. Then they get saved things go back to normal, its boring and then all of a sudden it gets crazy again. I can't handle it lol.

Also I rearranged my shelf in my bedroom and its looking slightly less cluttered. I have a lot of books that female comedians wrote and I think I will be getting more of them... so I need to display them. Right now I just have Tina, Amy and Mindy's books... but I'm also getting Nia Vardalos's book, Judy Greer's book and probably Lena Dunham and Anna Gayaster's book... so I will need lots of room. Right now I have a bunch of magazines with Mindy Kaling and Tina Fey displayed. It looks a little creepy actually... like a weird Mindy Kaling shrine... I hope she'll still be best friends with me lol.

Also I have Bath and Body Work's wallflower Caramel Pumpkin Swirl plugged in and it is amazing. I may need to pick up more of these because this just smells absolutely wonderful.

Annnnnnddd... yeah that is it probably.

Byeee!

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...
