Scribbles About Food: Snack Haul!

Heyyy guys! I got some new snacks to try out! Most on the healthier side. Most I haven't tried yet and I'll update you and let you know... but yeah. These all seem pretty exciting, so I'm going to try them!

First off I'll just say the unhealthy thing that I already reviewed and they are amazing. The Lay's Biscuits and Gravy Potato Chips from their Do Us A Flavor Contest. The other flavors sound okay too... but I think it'll be really hard to beat this one. That's for sure. This is a good one!

Next I got some Special K bars because I really like the ones I've tried and the ones I haven't tried also sounded really good. I think these are all 90-150 calories. These were on sale 2 for $5 where I got them... so I ended up getting 4 of the bars. One bar was the 90 calorie Chocolate Pretzel bar. These are amazing. I already tried it. Its pretty filling and it tastes so chocolatey and salty and sweet. It is like a candy bar instead of a granola bar and its so great. The other thing I got that I've tried already are the Chewy Nut Bars in Cranberry Almond. These are amazing. They're so nutty, its a little like a payday bar but with cranberries in it and its sticky and yummy and tastes like peanut butter. Its also filling. I really like this one. I got the same chewy bars in Chocolate Almond because those looked good too. I think those are both 150 calories. And then something I'm excited to try is the Salted Caramel Chocolate bars which are 100 calories and I'm sure is equally awesome to the Chocolate Pretzel.

We also got a K cups that sounded good. Its from Green Mountain coffee and its Brown Sugar Crumble donut. I'm a sucker for any coffee that claims to taste like a donut. Lol. I'm excited for this.

And I got VitaTops in Deep Chocolate. I think I heard Allison Anderson talk about these being delicious a few years ago on youtube and I'm curious. Whenever someone says something healthy is yummy on youtube it either sucks or its amazing. Lol. But chocolate muffin tops? I'm on board. I'll try it.

And at target I got a couple of their cookies that I like a lot... but I realize the ones I got are higher calorie than the ones I had before. These are like cookie balls and I got a Dark Chocolate Cherry Cookie Snack Bites and the Peanut Butter and Chocolate Cookie Snack Bites. I liked the Mint cookie ones a lot. I haven't tried the Peanut butter ones yet, but so far I like the Mint better than the cherry. The cherry ones taste a little drier than the mint ones. But still okay.

So yeah that is everything! I will update you on which ones of these are yummy and which ones aren't... this is slowly becoming a food blog... but everyone eats right? 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...
