Weekly Faves+ Thoughts and plans

So I may be kind of MIA this week on Scribbles about Life... its going to be a kind of busy week for me. I do a weekly favorites for my beauty blog, but there are so many things I've been liking that are non beauty related... why not share the love here?

I did a Costco Food Haul recently, and the Peanut Butter Snappers are... the best thing in the entire universe. Its a pretzel that has chocolate and peanut butter... and maybe caramel... I think there is just a big dollup of peanut butter on it. It just tastes amazing. They aren't the healthiest option, but 3 are 200 calories... so if you can limit yourself to 3 or less... not too bad. I'm kind of trying to be healthy, but these exist and they're fantastic. If they had nutella snappers... ohhh man. That'd be the best!

Also the Snapple Lady Liber-tea is sooo good. Its red raspberry, white peach and blueberry... I love Peach Iced Tea and I love Raspberry iced tea and combined... its such a unique yummy flavor. And then add blueberries and its just really great. Drinking these now.

I also went to a restaurant called Chillango's I believe its called. Its in Atlantic Highlands I believe, so if you're taking a boat from NY to NJ, its not too far from that... its such a good place and today they were celebrating "Cinco de Donald" to Mock Donald Trump for his racist remarks against mexican immigrants. I went for lunch, so idk if there was a big celebration or anything, there was a local news van outside, so I think there's a story on that... which I'll post if I can find because that just sounds awesome. Anyway I got a hawaiin quesadilla from there which had ham and pineapples... it was awesome. The pineapples were so sweet and delicious and full... I just loved it.

I feel like I could definitely continue with food favorites, but here are some shows I've been watching this week. I just brought out my old X Files Dvds and I watched the first episode of that. I want to prepare for the new show and I really like it. I'm not sure if my sister's dvd player was having a problem or if my dvds are just old or something, but the picture was in black and white and then it split... weirdly. So idk what that's about... if you have old X Files Dvds, do you notice this? I may try playing it on my computer... but I'm having trouble with this computer too... so thats a double suck. Lol. I know Kumail Nanjiani has a podcast about the x files called: The X Files Files, so I'm finally re-watching so that I can re-listen and thats exciting.

Yesterday I also watched Flea Market Flip... which is the best and most frustrating show ever to watch and its also amazing. Basically these people find old antique things at flea markets that look really cool and different... then they renovate them and kind of ruin them in my opinion and its hillarious to watch.. and sad and interesting. Sometimes they make cool stuff... most of the time its super ugly. They made a Hungarian Baby Bathtub into a coffee table... with fish inside of it... What? It was so weird so hideous and yet they made money on it... so its insane.

Also been rewatching one of my favorite web series, Burning Love. This show is so funny. There are 3 seasons, all season are on Hulu plus I believe and I think the third season is on for free on yahoo screen. It's funny, if you like the bachelor or the bachelorette or unreal... It's along those lines, but it's a comedy. The second season is "the bachelorette" season and it's spot on how the bachelorette is. It's sooo soo good! 

For apps... I've rediscovered the app Tree World... Which was a horrible mistake because it consumes my life now and it's so sooo stupid. It's along the lines of FarmVille sort of. Basically you take care of animals that live on a tree... It's a little insane. But it's amazing and I'm going to be in love with it for the next few months at least... 

So yeah that's it... Tomorrow (Monday I think I'm posting this on Monday now) and Tuesday I have some fun things I'm doing, maybe I'll just blog about my day or something... Idk what I'm really doing tomorrow... But I might do some exploring or shopping or something fun lol :). 

Byeeeee!

Disney Store Closing Haul

So if you read my post from yesterday- you know that I love The Disney Store, but it is unfortunately closing. I did pick up some things from the store that I thought I'd share with you guys! I did get a couple of t shirts. One is a Star Wars shirt, which is technically a men's shirt but I thought it looked really cool and I don't like that Disney doesn't carry the same things for men and for women. For the most part they look unisex to me and a lot of their men's stuff has characters I like better. Like the star wars shirt for women was grey with pink lettering and had no pictures, but the mens shirt had a really cool metallic silver logo on black clothing with pictures of all the new characters and Luke inside of the letters... much cooler! So I got that! The other shirt I got is really funny and it has Sleeping Beauty on it and it says "I Woke Up Like This." Which I really liked! Super cute and funny and my niece likes it when I wear shirts with c...

Scribbles About Life: 3.10.16

Soooo... I don't really want to post about my day... but I don't really want to post anything else either. I started writing something about female characters in movies and TV... but I just didn't like what I was writing and... idk... I was a blog writing machine this week and now I feel defeated. I wrote a ton on Monday and Tuesday and now I just don't feel like doing a post today... but I want to write still... So I'll talk about things that I guess are on my mind lately... Idk. So I got this Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor... and for some reason... I'm addicted to the way that it smells. Idk why, it smells like cherry medicine... but I also sort of like it. Its more cherry than medicine... and I can't smell it on my lips... but Idk. I keep smelling it in the tube. I got some cute stuff from American Eagle yesterday too! I got a dress and a romper... I do not own any Rompers... except this one... but it looked good on me and it didn't make me look f...

Throwback Thursday: 13 Going On 30

So I watched this on VH1 around Christmas Time because it was on... they really need to bring this movie to Netflix because it's pretty fantastic and VH1 doesn't get the whole thing. I didn't catch the very beginning... but I did watch most of it from around the time when Matty gives her the Dream House... so sweet. It was a little weird to watch this movie because when it came out, I was 13 or almost 13... and now I'm closer to being 30... but I still felt more connected to the 13 year old Jenna instead of the adults in the movie. Like I'm not totally sure when I turned almost 30... but I don't like it. I'm still 13 year old Jenna who likes the same music as when I was 13 and has kind of the same style as I did then... I don't know... its just kind of a weird thing and I was freaking out a little bit from it. This is also the movie that introduced me to one of my favorite actresses, Judy Greer! I love Judy Greer, she's so funny and great and s...
