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!

Scribbles about TV: Jane The Virgin Review!

This I think is a surprise hit, so of corse I needed to watch it for myself to see! It's been getting a lot of critical buzz because it has been reviewed as "one of the best pilots of the season" and I also have been hearing a few critics saying that they don't think it will last because the word "virgin" is in the title... which is stupid. There is nothing wrong with being a virgin and if a show is good, its good and people should watch it... plus this did bring pretty high ratings for The CW so the critics that said that can suck it! Lol. Overall I really liked this show. One thing thats been bothering me a lot about the new Fall shows is that the characters aren't interesting enough. Especially the female characters. I thought that this showed a lot of really strong female characters that were interesting. This had a pretty big cast with A LOT of stuff going on for a pilot and most of the characters were female. That is a powerful thing to see on TV...

Scribbles About TV: Jane The Virgin Finale Review (SPOILERS)

So.... Can we talk about all the twists because there were a lot! I didn't even see all of them coming! Alrighty we start out in typical Jane The Virgin Mode with Jane's choice between Raphael and Michael... I'd be okay with either but I think I'm team Michael. Jane has a weird moment with Raphael and thinks she's better off without him and just having him be the father of her child. She's also starting to have some feelings for Michael again. Then she almost has the baby on the bus and some woman helps her and gets the bus driver to take her to the hospital. Rogellio and Xo are in Vegas and they get drunk and can't remember what happens, but they make it just in time to see Jane deliver a baby boy. I knew it would be a boy! Lets pause on that a little and go to Michael and his ex partner/friend with benefits who comes back says she has a lead on Sin Rostro, gives him an address where the plastic surgeon is and by the time Michael gets there, he's de...

September 2015: It List

Now that I do weekly favorites, I feel like these will be less surprising... but still. Some good things. 1) Pumpkin Spice Lattes- Its the most wonderful latte of the year! Lol. All the yes. Soooo much yes. Its so creamy and pumpkiny and delicious. It was what has been missing from my life for a long time and now its back and I think they get more and more delicious every year. And I know last year people were like "pumpkin spice isn't cool anymore." Have you had any? It is delicious!!!! I'm a big fan of the PSL. 2) Arrow- I've been wanting to watch this show for a while. The guy that plays Oliver is not only hot, but he was really funny and good on a talk show I saw him on... so that made me like "ohh I need to watch this." I'm also not super into comic books or anything, but I do like Batman and DC movies at least more than anything else and I didn't really realize that there were so many tv shows in the DC universe right now. There are a f...
