Scribbles About Food: Mocha Coconut Frappuccino

New Frap you say? Of corse I tried it!

I think this is something you can order off the menu... not 100% sure... but it seems easy. I think they always have coconut syrup and they always have mocha... so you can probably get some version of it.

The girls at the starbucks were super nice and friendly and the Barrista said that she just made her first one before and it was really good. Never knew Target Starbucks accepted the Starbucks card, but it did! Better than my college Starbucks! Lol. But yeah I was all pumped I thought it was going to be really great, I love coconut so I was excited.

And I was not disappointed! This was absolutely delicious. Gloria Jeans has a Mocha Coconut Chiller, so I was expecting it to taste like that... but this had wayyy more mocha in it... which I'm not necessarily saying is better... but thats kind of what I wanted at the time. I was like "I want this to taste a little more chocolatey than the Gloria Jeans" and thats what it was.

I feel like my favorite thing on like any coconut coffee drink is the whipped cream with the toasted coconut on top... theres something so yummy about the combo. The smoothness of the whipped cream with the slight crunch and coconut flavor of the coconut... its just amazing.

If you don't like coconut, you aren't going to like this. Coconut is one of those things you either love or you hate. I've never met anyone that was on the fence with coconut. Everyone I know either loves it... or hates it... but I don't think I know anyone that hates it. I'm pretty sure every person I know likes coconut... and I think now I'm going to ask everyone I know next time I see them if they like coconut or not. And if they say not, I'll say "Coco-NOT" and then I'll laugh to myself as they stare blankly at me wondering why we're friends. It'll be fun.

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 Books: Horns by Joe Hill

I picked this book up not too long ago because after seeing the trailer for the movie and seeing it was based on a book I thought "Hey, that looks good. I should read the book." Then my friend gave me a Barnes and Noble gift card for my birthday and I thought "Hey I wanted to read Horns, I should grab that." And I did, and I had to read it around halloween of corse! So this is my kind of horror story first of all. I love that the universe it takes place in is very realistic and very small-town. If you've noticed in some of my other book reviews... I like mysteries that take place in small towns. And its very believable because the world and the characters are all so real. I think its a good book just for that. The book starts out with this guy Ignatious, or Ig a year after his girlfriend Merrin is murdered. He grows horns from out of his head... for no real reason. And then a few chapters in we find out who really did it and then we find out why and that thi...
