Scribbles About Life: A day in the life of Shannon

So today, I woke up around 6:45, my dog scratched on my door, I laid down with him for a little bit. I watched the news... I ranted a bit about the media's coverage of the recent shooting in South Carolina in the church. When they focus on the shooter and not the victim... that encourages other people to do shootings. If they focus on the victims its more like "ohh there are good innocent people in the world that get harmed and killed for no reason. Lets keep everyone safe." But... no. Its pretty terrible.

I stayed up for a little bit and pet my dog... he's such a good dog. I love having a dog. Its just so nice to wake up and then see a dog there and he's soft and cute and loves you. Get a dog guys! Or whatever animal you like! They're awesome. Lol. And I went back to my room for a little after that and went back to bed.

I woke up a little later, had lunch... didn't do much exciting. Watched some youtube ate a Turkey Sandwich. Didn't want to eat anything heavy because...

I WENT TO MY COUSIN'S RESTAURANT! You can read about her and her restaurant right here. We've been wanting to try it for a while, but never had a chance to go there. On her facebook page she always posts pics of her creations, and she has some really unique stuff on the menu. I highly recommend her dessert, the Cadbury Scotch Egg... best thing I ever ate.

So yeah I went there. We had a bunch of food. Lol. I got the Salmon as my main course and it had a really yummy coconut rice on the side... delicious. Soooo good! And the drinks were yummy, the dessert was yummy... everything was really good! Highly recommend.

So then we went home. Its a bit away from us, so... yeah. And I saw I got the new Entertainment weekly in the mail and the cover is the men of Magic Mike 2... and I am staring at the cover a lot... I may hang it on my wall... lol.

Now I'm watching The Tonight show, which is usually when I blog. Jim Gaffigan is on... didn't realize he had his own show coming out! Thats exciting! I never liked Jim Gaffigan that much before... now that I'm a grown up... I like him a lot better!

And now Jimmy's doing his Thank You Letters bit and I like it... so I'm gonna go!

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...

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...
