Scribbles About Food: Not Your Fathers Root Beer (21+)

So this is my first review of an alcoholic beverage I believe and I think thats cool. I know my profile picture probably looks a little young, but I am almost 24 so I can drink this stuff! Responsibly of corse, I don't drive but thats something not cool to do and I don't drink too much, I know my limits... I know people that don't know their limits and do drink to much and I don't like drinking with them so don't be that friend! Have a good time if your drinking but don't overdo it. This PSA brought to you by Shannon. Lol.

Anyway onto the review which is the fun part. I just recently started liking beer... but I'm weird with it. I like Miller Light... which is probably the worst stuff you could drink lol... but cold from the fridge, I don't mind it. My favorite is Blue Moon, which again I prefer from the bottle. I'm a bottle person, idk what it is I just really prefer drinking from a bottle. I also love Root Beer and Root Beer Floats. And this tastes just like root beer. There is barely any alcohol taste, my sister hates beer and she really liked this.

This isn't exactly like normal beer though, it doesn't really have a high alcohol content... but for beer its pretty high. I had one and it was stronger than I expected. I could definitely see if if people drank a few of these getting pretty drunk. They don't taste like alcohol at all really so I can see not even realize your drinking anything and then getting drunk. Its something you should definitely be careful for.

The woman at Wegman's also said these are like 500 calories... which is insane! It doesn't say anywhere on the packaging, so idk how true that is... I know if you're drinking beer you aren't exactly concerned about the calories but I thought I'd point it out. These are also hard to find. In NJ its like impossible, these are a small brewery... I think they're from Pennsylvania and there is a very high demand for them, so a lot of liquor stores are limiting customers to 1 6 pack per person... but if you can find them, pick one up. They're really yummy and definitely worth the 500 possible calories lol.

That is it! Hope you guys like this, remember my PSA. And enjoy!

Byeee!

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...

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...
