Man Crush Monday: Jimmy Fallon

Jimmy Fallon is one of my favorite talk show hosts... and I pretty much like all the late night talk show hosts... so that is saying a lot. (I haven't actually watched James Cordin yet, but I have a huge crush on him from Into The Woods, so yeah. I also have a crush on Seth Meyer though... And all the comedy central guys... ugh. Lol. and obviously Jimmy Fallon. Lol.) So yeah... this is saying a lot that he is one of my favorites.

1) He genuinely acts like he has the most fun job in the world- Jimmy Fallon is always really excited about the show. He pretty much does have the most fun job ever, and he actually appreciates it. He was on SNL, and when he left SNL for late night he was excited and proud of his job, and now on The Tonight Show he's very happy.

2) His Ice Cream Flavors are good- This one is completely random... but I feel like having Ben and Jerry's make an ice cream flavor after you is a really big honor and a great responsibility. You can tell a lot about a person by the type of ice cream he makes and... Jimmy's flavors are just awesome. Lol. I haven't tried The Tonight Dough yet... but it sounds amazing. Chocolate, Cookie Dough, Peanut Butter and I think there are brownie bits too... good combo. I loved Late Night Snack too because it had chocolate covered potato chips in it... Its like it was made for women with PMS or pregnant women! Lol. I really appreciate that! I love the names of the flavors and I just think its cool.

3) He's proud of his show- I feel like he's always very proud of his show and everything about it. He's always excited for all the guests and he always says "we have a great show this week" and he always does. He treats all of his guests fairly and is equally excited for big guests and small guests. A few weeks ago Michelle Obama was on... and its kind of hard to be on a show the same week as Michelle Obama... but Jimmy Fallon was just as excited for Ricky Gervais and all his other guests as he was for Michelle Obama. Which is really saying something. I think that is super cool of him.

4) The Tonight Show is a lot different than any other talk show- So I feel like every single week, there is a new sketch or a new game that was a video on The Tonight Show first and its been happening basically since the show started and has continued till now. And I feel like that is awesome because... this is a new thing for talk shows. When Jay Leno started, there was no youtube so there was no point in him trying to do sketches or things like that. Johnny Carson did do sketches and characters, and I'm sure his show would have gone viral if youtube was created at that time. So I feel like he's both honoring Johnny Carson's sketches, characters and sense of humor and also making it more accessible for todays day and age. Can't stay up to see the show? No problem! You can see the best parts on youtube! I just think its really cool and unique and I think Fallon gives a much different energy to the show and kind of gives the sketch/talk show hybrids a lot more options... and that is pretty cool.

5) His breaking on SNL- Its just funny that he broke so much on SNL. It still makes me laugh. Its funny when cast members don't break at all ever... but Jimmy's breaking is somewhat notorious and if you watch the Andy Samberg Adam Sandler song from the SNL 40th, you can see all the breaking and the highlights of it. Lol.

Byeee!

It List: May 2017

Can't believe it's the last day of May... this was a great time for TV... so let's get right into it! 1) Master of None- The second season of this show was really really great! I liked the first season... but this season was just wayyy better to me for some reason... I loved that they had episodes about Italy and about New York... I think they did a really great job and I was so impressed with it... I'll have to watch the first season over again and do a Throwback Thursday on that sometime soon... but until then... season 2 was great! 2) Girl Boss- I finally got around to watching Girl Boss this month too... and I loved that show! At first I wasn't sure if I was going to like it or not... then I just couldn't stop watching it and I finished it in 2 days... which I guess is when I finished all the Netflix shows I'm talking about... but still. Girlboss was definitely really good... and I feel like I could watch this one over and over again too. 3) Unbrea...

Blogmas Day 12: The 12 Days of Christmas Gift Guide

So I thought it would be fun to do a gift guide that every gift corresponds with the price. So like for the first day of Christmas $1 gift that would be good and then up from there. These would be good stocking stutterers and things I just think are unique. $1- Solar Powered Dancers!  My mom loves getting the little dancing solar powered people. We get most of ours from Dollar tree... other dollar stores have them too, they're super cute and fun for $1. Its good to put near any plants that you have that way you know they're getting sunlight. It's a good gift. $2- Mini Coloring Book!  At 5 Below they had some mini travel sized coloring books for $2. I thought these were pretty cool. I got the Botanical one I believe. Really cute and fun! I would recommend! $3-   Ceramic Truck w/ Christmas Tree  I saw this at the Target Dollar Spot and I thought it was cute and would probably make a great gift. If you know someone who has a truck or likes the sort of "rustic C...

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...
