October 2015 It List: Birthday Edition!!!!!

Sooo I did this last year and I'm doing it again this year. The month is like halfway done... plus its my birthday... so here are my favorites for the month!

1) Scream Queens- One of the funniest and Scariest shows I've ever seen is definitely #1 on my favorites list for this month. This is such a well done Horror Comedy... I typically love Horror Comedies and this one is probably my favorite that leans more towards the comedy side. There is currently a 3 week halloween special on... I'm watching Part One as I write this... and its already really funny and amazing. I love that they keep mentioning a Best Buy Parking Lot as a reference to Serial Season 1... its so funny. Such a great commentary and satire. Its like if American Horror Story were super funny. Super Super Funny. Its bloody and gory too... but the laughs don't ever really stop either. Its just really wells done. Great satire and just a good show.

2) American Horror Story- At the time I'm writing this... only one episode has been released... but this time of year, I'm always super hooked on American Horror Story. I read the fan theories, I try to see the connections. Last year I was trying to watch like the first episode of each season after the first episode aired and so on... Thats a lot to do. I want to do it this year too just to see connections... but its unlikely. I need to finish Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D and Arrow first... but yeah this is good! I love the show and even though I don't 100% know what's going on this year... I'm excited about it.

3) Report Boots- I love boots. I have... too many Ugg Boots... lol. Its not cold enough for Uggs quite yet, but these boots from Report that I got from the Famous Footwear outlets are super cute and super comfy and that is all I want in life. I was excited to get these... but even more excited to actually start wearing them. Famous Footwear Outlets has good shoes for a reasonable price and they're really great. And these are great! I want to find a brown pair of boots somewhere or other soon... but these are cute too and I like them!

4) Johnny Cupcakes Halloween T Shirts- Johnny Cupcakes T Shirts are some of my favorites. Especially the ones they have for Halloween. He used to do these amazing shirts that were limited edition and they came in a cupcake box with sprinkles and a vintage TMNT Trading card... which was cool. Johnny Cupcakes sends, or at least used to send his old trading cards with any online order which is just a really cool and personal touch. And they just look awesome, they have cupcakes and scary stuff. I used to get them for my birthday, I haven't gotten any in a while, just because I have a lot and I don't know if he still does his limited edition ones which were called There's Something in The Cupcake Mix. I have some that didn't come in the cupcake box or anything, but they were still really really cool. I love Johnny Cupcakes, if you're ever in Boston you need to stop in the Johnny Cupcakes Store because its just so cool. Its a bakery but they sell t shirts with cupcakes on them.

Anyway my favorite ones: One is a haunted Bakery. One has Dr. Frankenstein and The Bride of Frankenstein and that was a limited batch one, so there's a number on the back and everything. One is a cupcake man with his head chainsawed off and that has the limited batch number on the back. Its really cool. He also sometimes has little stories on the inside of his shirts, there's a lot of detail into everything about the shirts and you can wear it like 20 times and then see a surprise message somewhere in it. I've had most of these since I was a teenager too... Idk how many times I've worn them... but they last really long. Its really cool, if you're looking for Halloween T Shirts or you love Horror movies or anything like that, he has some cool t shirts on his site right now.

5) Trader Joe's Pumpkin Spice Cookie Butter- Ohhh my gosh... this is fantastic. If you love Speckulous or Cookie Butter and you love Pumpkin Spice... this is like the best thing in the entire world. On toast when it gets warm and melty it tastes amazing, or just on a spoon from the jar it tastes fantastic. My sister tried it in her Oatmeal and it was a little too chunky for her on that... so that was sort of a fail... but overall really yummy cookie butter, it tastes amazing and I highly recommend. This is the first thing I've tried from Trader Joe's too! The Trader Joe's in the area is pretty hard to find, so this is pretty cool and new to me. I like it!

6) Quantico- I'm really getting into this show! I thought this week's episode was really excellent too! When I first watched it I was like "this is going to be one of those things you need to watch twice and I don't think its going to be as good as How To Get Away With Murder" but it is! Its so good. It was really good this week and I think Sunday's episode is kind of what got me hooked. This probably wouldn't be on this list had it not been for Sunday's episode. It's awesome and I love it! Its episode 3 and already everything is coming together really nicely and there's still a lot of "wait what's going on" but its also very satisfying. Especially at the end of each episode. I love it.

7) Bite Beauty Best of Bite Rewind Set- I just got this a few days ago... but I can already tell its a favorite. I really like the colors in it and the formula of their matte creme lipsticks. As far as colors go... they're the same colors as the set from last year... but they look different enough on the lips to make them really unique and good. Last years were creamy, this year they're matte. It's really awesome, the colors are all really nice looking and would look good on a lot of people. They don't feel super drying either and they last a long time on the lips. I really like them even though I've only played around with them a little bit and worn one color. Here are some swatches of this years set next to last years.





8) Plants vs Zombies- Sometimes I can go months without playing any app games and other times, I'll be totally consumed by it and it'll be totally consumed by it... and right now I'm consumed by PvZ. I specifically like the mini games and lately I've been hooked on Vase Breaker... which is hard, but really fun and just so satisfying to win... I like it a lot. And its crazy how easily I get hooked into it and how fast I get over it. At some points I'm like "this is so stupid, I'm just clicking my phone and wasting the battery..." but then other times... I'm hooked... and its kind of a problem. Lol.

9) New Comforter from Heartland- This is a bit of a random one, but I just got a new comforter from Bed Bath and Beyond and I really like it. It was on sale, plus you can use your 20 % off coupon... so that's good. It has a cute pink and blue flower design and its really nice and it doesn't fall off the bed or anything. Its really nice. Its actually by Lady Antabellum... which is weird right? Its cool though and I've only slept with it on once, but I really like the design and think its comfy, warm and doesn't fall off... which is everything you could really want in a comforter right?
Here's what it looks like on a fancy person's bed. On my bed theres just regular pillows and minions... lol. 

10) Cashmere Glow BBW Fragrance Mist- This is one of my favorite scents for fall time. It just smells so good and warm and I love it. I didn't like it the first time I smelled it, but I guess my tastes kind of changed and now I love it, especially in the fall and winter. I think the notes are like peach, vanilla and sandalwood and it just smells absolutely amazing. If you happen to smell it... I highly recommend it. I love the shower gel also... haven't gotten that in years... but I may need to soon! One of my favorite scents that they make... I just really like it!

So that is everything! Hope you guys like this random array of products! I always love making lists. And I hope you're having a excellent day because its my birthday! And I want everyone to have a great day on my birthday! 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...
