Blogmas Day 6- Scribbles About Food: Holiday Edition

So what would Blogmas be without a Scribbles about food! So here are some fun holiday foods and drinks that I like... or maybe I hate... you'll find out!

Hood Pumpkin Holiday Nog- So this is yummy. This isn't the yummiest Egg Nog in the world, that would have been the now discontinued Hood Sugar Cookie Eggnog/ Holiday Nog. These aren't actually made with Eggs, so that is why its called Holiday Nog now... fun fact. If you like Egg Nog, If you like Pumpkin cheesecake, I think you'll like this flavor. It doesn't taste like you're drinking cheesecake... but it reminds me a bit of pumpkin cheesecake, just without the cheesiness.

Hood Vanilla Holiday Nog- This is closer to the Sugar Cookie Nog that I knew and loved... so I like this a little bit more. It still isn't the same. Its pretty good though. If you tried that Sugar Cookie Nog and you liked it, I would recommend this one. Its really sweet and vanilla-y. I really like it.

Fudge Covered Ritz Crackers- I had these last year and I didn't think they were that great... but this year they're just so fresh and delicious. My mom got me a box for an Advent Gift a few days ago... not gonna lie... its almost gone now. I didn't share it with anyone.... lol. Its really really yummy though. The chocolate is good. I love it!

Pepperidge Farm Snowballs- Another good cookie for the holidays... that they messed with a little bit to be honest. They definitely shrunk these this year... and its noticeable. These are still very flavorful and good though. They're regular shortbread cookies I guess but they have powdered sugar and a citrus flavor. Really nice and limited edition for christmas.

Pepperidge Farm Linzer Cookies- These are delicious also. They're linzer torte cookies, which are powdered sugar cookies with raspberry filling in the middle... really really yummy. They don't skimp on the powdered sugar either! When they first came out they didn't have a lot of powdered sugar... now they do! I really like these. I got this the same day I got the Ritz crackers... these are gone now!

Queen Anne Cherry Cordial K Cups- I'm actually trying this right now... just got these today at Stop and shop... they're pretty dang tasty! You can get the chocolate cherry flavor from it, but it still tastes normal and like coffee. Its sweet too. I really like it. It's sweet too. I think these would go well with chocolate cherries. The Hershey Kisses in the chocolate cherry are my favorite... so this would go well with those.

Also these don't say K Cups on the package... idk if that means they're some knock off type of thing or if they work with other machines... but it works with the Keurig and its good!

Starbucks Christmas Blend K Cups- This was good too... this needs to be a little sweeter... lol. It has a nice spicy sort of christmas flavor. I like it though, if you're more into coffee and not as into christmas things.

Green Mountain Gingerbread K Cups- This is soooo good. If you love gingerbread and you love keurigs... these are good. I might even like it better than the Gingerbread Latte from Starbucks! That is how good it is! I loveee it!

so that is it! Hope you guys enjoy it!

Byeeee!

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...
