Blogmas day 7: More Holiday Reviews: Holiday specials, holiday tv, what to watch on Netflix

I was kind of out of ideas today... so I'm just going to do a little ranking of Christmas Tv and other stuff.

TV- This Year

The Goldbergs- The Goldbergs Hanukah episode was really funny. I love this show... but this was my favorite episode so far. The story between Adam and Barry was really funny. Beverly tries to make Hanukah Christmas, her dad dresses as Hanu-claus... its funny. Its very nice in the spirit of the holidays.

The Middle- Not my favorite of The Middle's Christmas episodes... but it was pretty funny. Sue deletes all the family photos on the computer and everyone is upset about it. It kinda showed how Technology has changed things. It was good. I liked it.

Dr. Ken- I don't love this show... but the Christmas episode wasn't bad. I thought there was a kind of funny twist at the end where the one woman was the master scheduler and just blamed some random guy in the building. Reminded me of the episode of 30 Rock in Boston.

Last Man Standing- I only kind of watched this and Dr. Ken cause I don't like those shows that much... but this had a good message behind it. Do things for others, not for yourself. It was nice.

Snowed in At The House Of Mouse- I watched this on Netflix this week and I loved it. I just wanted something on in the background while I was cleaning my room, and I got hooked. Lol. I love the classic  Pluto cartoon they had, they had a good Nutcracker with Mickey and Minnie, and Mickey's Christmas Carol, which is one of the funnier ones! Really nice and heartwarming. I liked it a lot.

House of Villains- This is the Halloween House of Mouse episode. I started watching it after because it was suggested and I wanted to see it before it left Netflix for the year lol. I thought it was fun. If you want something family friendly that everyone can enjoy, this is good. It has classic cartoons and new ones that are funny. I really like it!

Mickey's Once Upon a Christmas- This one was also really good. The three stories are really nice. Some Disney twists on classic stories. The first story had Hewy, Duey and Louie wish for Christmas every day and learn that its not about the presents or the food. Goofy and Max learn to believe in Santa Claus and Mickey and Minnie learn that the best gifts are time with each other... so all heartwarming tales. Really fun to watch.

Mickey's Twice Upon a Christmas-I only watched the first story in this I didn't like it as much though. It wasn't quite as Christmasy and I don't like the animation as much.

Modern Family- This was funny. I'm glad Andy and Hayley are finally together. That was good. Andrea Martin was really funny in it. It was really funny all around. Not the most family friendly holiday episode... but its still good and funny.

Black-ish- Also really good. I don't think they should have made fun of Rainbow so much for volunteering though, cause that sends a bad message... but the message of the show was a good one overall and this is one of my current favorite shows, so I loved it!

Byeee! Hope you guys check these out and like them!

Weekly Wrap Up 7.30.17

Sunday 7.23.17  Sunday was a really good day… it was kind of a lazy day for me… but my dad pretty much finished most of the painting in my room… he ran out of paint before he could totally finish it up… so he’ll finish that up soon… my mom is going to the paint store tomorrow… so hopefully he can finish it up then.  He also made some really fantastic barbecue pork… it was going to be pulled pork… but the pulling process didn’t really work… I kind of prefer the texture of it sliced instead of pulled…. idk. I like pulled pork… but this sliced pork was really delicious and flavorful and good.  We went for Starbucks and Ice Cream too… which was fun. Starbucks sends a lot of bonus stars offers after 2… so even though we go in the morning- we have to go after 2 because then we’ll get bonus stars, which my dad uses in New York because it’s a little more expensive there.  And then the ice cream… nutella ice cream with crushed oreos and marshmallow…it was del...

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...

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...
