Scribbles About Life: My Dog and his Snowman

So I was going to post something different today... but this story is just too cute... so I need to share it.

My dog, Spencer was looking at the dining room table trying to get something the other day, and it was these snowball things we had. We weren't sure at first but we gave him one of these and he was happy.

He was REALLY happy with it though. He wouldn't take it out of his mouth, except every once and a while he would put it down and just stare at its face. It was like he was in love with it or something, it was so cute! He's a maltese, and I think he thought the snowman looked like him and maybe he thought it was like his doggy mommy or his sisters, but he just loved it! It was the cutest thing.

And these aren't really dog toys, they're very easy for him to get open and tear the stuffing out... so we'll only let him have it if we're home and if we notice he's tearing it open we'll take it away from him. And when I did take it away last night he was so heartbroken, he was looking for it more... so I ended up giving him another one cause they come in a little set with like 5 snowballs. And he was happy again. He was pretty tired though, so he just sort of cuddled next to it.

He's just so sweet and so playful with these little snowmen that I needed to share the story and I just think its cute.

And again, I wouldn't recommend just giving these to your dogs because that is not what they're made for... make sure you're paying attention to them and don't leave your dog home alone with these out because they might start to eat the fur and choke... but its cute.

Ohhh another thing that I think Spencer likes about the snowmen is the rosy cheeks. Maltese dogs can get stains on their faces, and its nothing too bothersome, the vet said it isn't serious. You can kind of comb them out, but Spencer doesn't like that and would bite our fingers off if we tried. There are pills and other things that they say work... none of it really works. Its all a gimmick... in dog shows they bleach them... but we aren't doing that. My last dog never had that either and he was also a maltese... idk what causes it... but I don't think its a big deal. Anyway, back on topic I think he thinks the rosy cheeks are like the stains on his face.


Also here is a cute picture of Spencer if you're like "Shannon, you talked about a cute dog this whole post... but there are no pictures of cute dogs in here. I need some more cute in my life!"


And here are some more pictures... just for good measure.

When he was being cuddly. 

He let me pick him up when we were hanging out one day. 

Spencer appreciates that Too Faced doesn't test on animals, so he tried to grab the Cyber Monday Mystery Bag. 

him as a baby! So tiny! 

and here he is chillin with Woodstock. 

Bye! Hope you found this adorable!

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...

Throwback Thursday: Crazy Ex Girlfriend Season 1

One of my favorite shows is the very underrated Crazy Ex Girlfriend... and when I say underrated I mean the ratings are bad... I'm pretty sure there is a lot of critical hype that is very real and worthy of that sort of hype... I honestly didn't watch it live at all this year until the finale... it was all in my DVR... I had lost a little bit of interest to be honest after the first episode... but I bingewatched it all in one day pretty much and it was great... but that's season 2... let's go back to Season 1. If you're only familiar with Season 2... Season 1 isn't quite as dark. It's definitely more silly than Season 2. It isn't like the darkness and the drama isn't there, it just isn't quite as dark. I have a feeling the show is getting progressively darker, and the Season 2 finale was definitely the darkest so far. The show is meant to be a different spin on a Rom-Com. The girl moves across the country for a guy that has a girlfriend alrea...
