Scribbles About food: More Pumpkin/ Fall Stuff!

So I've tried a few more pumpkin and apple flavored candies and I wanted to kind of give little mini reviews of what I thought of these treats. Some of these I may have reviewed already... some I may have mentioned in a Weekly Wrap Up... but they are all delicious and I felt like mentioning them.

1) Candy Apple Twizzlers- When you open these up they smell really really sour... but then they have a really nice apple flavor on the twizzler and the caramel on the inside is such a good texture for it and its so sweet and just really nice. This is a great flavor combo and I really like these. Highly recommend trying them!

2) Caramel Apple Oreos- I feel like I might have mentioned these in another Scribble About food... but these are also really delicious. These really got the flavor down for the caramel apple part. It tastes so good. One of my favorite seasonal oreos that they have. Really flavorful, sweet and just good.

3) Green Mountain Pumpkin Spice K Cups- Ohhh my gosh these are delicious! They aren't a Pumpkin Spice Latte... but they have such a good pumpkin spice flavor that I really think anyone will enjoy them. Its sweet but has a nice cinnamony pumpkiny flavor. This is the kind of thing I like in my Pumpkin Spice and they did it right.

4) Pumpkin Spice Marshmallow filled Russell Stover Chocolates- I really like the marshmallow cream filled Russell Stover candies. The Strawberry Cream hearts are amazing. These are also great. They don't have such a pumpkin flavor that it takes away from the chocolate, but it isn't a subtle flavor that you can barely taste. I really enjoy these and they definitely get the seal of approval from me here. If you're going to try one candy from this review... try these... but I did save the absolute best for last.

5) Trader Joes Pumpkin Spice Cookie Butter- Ohhh my gosh! I LOOOOOVEEEE cookie butter and I love Speckulous and the combination of cookie butter and pumpkin spice... mind blowing. Absolutely amazing. The texture is nice and crunchy. It tastes good on Graham Crackers... but to me it tastes best on a spoon... lol. Yes. This is really good. My sister got me some... and I really really dig it! This is the only thing I've ever tried from Trader Joe's! We don't have many around the Jersey area, so this was exciting to me!

So that is it. Let me know which pumpkin or apple things you've tried and if you like it or not... I know Pumpkin Spice isn't cool anymore... I don't care though. I love it and I genuinely love fall and... yeah. That's it!

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...
