Scribbles About Food: Cinnamon Bun Frappuccino+ Overall Ranking?

So last but not least... the Cinnamon Bun Frap. This one when I read it I was most excited about this possibly... but at the same time... I didn't know if I'd like it best, so I made sure to save this one for last.

And this did not disappoint! I thought this was tasty. It was very cinnamon-y a little breakfast-y but... it was yummy. 

It might have just been vanilla bean with cinnamon... I feel like there was a lot to this frap. I'm not really sure. It was good. It tasted just like a cinnamon bun! It was pretty amazing. It wasn't like it was the best Cinnamon Bun ever or anything... but it was good. My sister's fiancee makes really good cinnamon buns, so those have kind of ruined all other cinnamon buns to me. I still like the Pillsbury ones... these maybe weren't as good as the pillsbury... but still, this is something you can drink and order at starbucks! 

So is this better than Cool Ranch Doritos... Hell yeah! I really loved this, I think this is something I'll definitely order again. Its so refreshing for the summer because this is another incredibly sweet one that you can be drinking while doing whatever you do on a hot day... its the perfect little drink companion to have stick around for a while and just enjoy it. 

So now onto the hard part... my overall thoughts on all of them and my ranking... 

My least favorite was the Cupcake one... this was the only one I really didn't love. It tasted like The Birthday Cake... but not as good. It was kind of too plain and just really sweet and it was good, but not incredibly delicious. 

My 2nd least favorite is probably the Red Velvet Frap... this wasn't bad at all... it just wasn't all that special. I thought this had a great flavor for Red Velvet... but not something I really see myself ordering again and it doesn't get my vote. 

I really liked the next 4... so ranking these is going to take a while... and possibly some extra tastes. But Lemon Bar, Cinnamon Bun, Cotton Candy, and Caramel Cocoa Cluster are all incredible. I'd be happy if any one of them wins...

Side Note: I recently learned that voting has started and as of now, the only 3 remaining Caramel Cocoa Cluster, Cinnamon Bun and Cupcake... this helped me decide the winner a little better but has not affected my overall opinion.

So next on my ranking would probably be the Lemon Bar... Its not bad, but it got very lemonade-like after a while.

3rd place goes to... Cotton Candy. This was really good and really different and I love the fact that its pink, but it doesn't beat the final two!

The 2nd best is the Cinnamon Bun. Really liked the flavor of it, it was a little too much cinamony and... idk. Just not the #1.

Caramel Cocoa Cluster has my vote... this may be because I can't get the cotton candy any more... but I really did like the flavor of this one the best. None of these are as good as the S'mores Frap or other fraps... but this stands its own and is something I could see enjoying all year actually.

That's it! This was exciting! I'm sad my scribbles about these fraps have to end now... but I won't be gone forever. Lol. I promise!

Byeee!

Scribbles about TV: Jane The Virgin Review!

This I think is a surprise hit, so of corse I needed to watch it for myself to see! It's been getting a lot of critical buzz because it has been reviewed as "one of the best pilots of the season" and I also have been hearing a few critics saying that they don't think it will last because the word "virgin" is in the title... which is stupid. There is nothing wrong with being a virgin and if a show is good, its good and people should watch it... plus this did bring pretty high ratings for The CW so the critics that said that can suck it! Lol. Overall I really liked this show. One thing thats been bothering me a lot about the new Fall shows is that the characters aren't interesting enough. Especially the female characters. I thought that this showed a lot of really strong female characters that were interesting. This had a pretty big cast with A LOT of stuff going on for a pilot and most of the characters were female. That is a powerful thing to see on TV...

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...

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...
