Weekly Wrap Up 2/21/16

Favorites 
Hamilton Soundtrack- I've got to mention this again cause I've been listening to it Non-Stop! Lol. After the Grammy's performance I just couldn't stop listening to it... and its amazing. Not tired of it. There are so many characters and so many songs that I always find a different character to like and sympathize with.

Deadpool- I saw this movie and reviewed it and I really liked it. I've gotta say Deadpool is one of my favorite fictional characters and I just really liked the movie. It was pretty cool.


Anastasia Beverly Hills Self Made Palette- I didn't really want to include any beauty favorites here cause I do have a beauty blog... but this palette is just amazing. The quality and the colors are all so versatile. I didn't think I was going to use it much, so I just "shopped my stash" for it... but its amazing. I've created so many different looks with it and I just really really like it. It makes me feel nice.

Highlights 
I saw Deadpool on Friday and went out with my friends. That was fun. Saturday I had to go with my mom to take my dog to the vet cause thats a two person job. He had something in his ear and it was getting infected... poor little guy. He's fine though, he's acting normal and himself and he should be fine by next week. And then my sister's dress fitting happened and then we went out to dinner... so yeah. That was the most stuff that happened.

TV Highlights 
I missed a lot this week. I saw the Wednesday comedies on ABC and Grey's Anatomy... and some of scandal and I half paid attention to How To Get Away With Murder... but I missed most things. I missed X Files and OJ Simpson... so I need to catch up! I was so looking forward to the OJ show... and X Files is just good and it was the 2nd to last episode... but it was up against the Grammys... which had bad ratings... so I'm guessing people were tuning into The X Files Instead.


News 
Tyra Banks shared her first photographs with baby York this week. The baby is just as beautiful as his momma and the photo is so stunning, I have to share it with you right here.

In sad News, Kesha was not able to be released from her contract even though she accused her producer of rape. I've seen things saying Chris Brown still has a thriving career when he's beaten women and Kesha is being silenced because of it. And it is really sad because I know this can't be the only case. I'm sure this is happening all over the world every day... and we need to change that.

Kanye West is apparently deeply in debt and some fans have raised gofundme's for him... actually made 4 Grand... so thats a thing. Also there is kind of a war going on between him and Taylor Swift and Calvin Harris... again... so yeah.

Foods Worth Mentioning 
So I had a lot of foods that are worthy of note that I didn't necessarily want to include in my favorites... so I'm going to shout some things out.

I will have a full review of the Starbucks Butterscotch Latte tomorrow... but it tastes exactly like it sounds. Straight up Butterscotch Latte.

I had Reese's Pieces when I went to see Deadpool and those were amazing.

I also had really good chicken and shrimp in peanut sauce... it was so good. Its one of the best meals I've ordered in a long time... I loved it. Peanut Sauce is good... but yeah. This was just awesome.

I had really good Chicken Marsala from 2 different places this week... so that was amazing.

And my dad got chocolates from this place in the city called Leonodis I believe and they have belgium truffles... and they have some chocolate hazelnut and white chocolate hazelnut things that are all really good. I just like Chocolate and hazelnut. If its Hershey Kisses Deluxe or Ferroero Rochers... they're just always good. I like them a lot.

And I mentioned those Special K Cereals... but they are DELICIOUS! I love them .The Nourish Cereals... so good. I've really been liking the apple raspberry this week. I love the Coconut one but... something about the apple raspberry is yummy too.

World Events 
Fashion week ended this week. Lady Gaga walked the runway for Marc Jacobs. It seemed like most of the runway shows had a lot of neutrals... which I do think will be in... but I think Neutrals with a pop of color or rainbow. I saw this Betsey Johnson bag that looked like the quilted Chanel bags but it had like a little bit of rainbow in it and I said "Yes. This is going to be trendy this season." I'm thinking Suicide Squad is going to sort of bring Harley Quinn type of style back in... and this seemed like a Harley Quinn bag a grown up could use.

The Grammy's were this week and those were fun to watch! I liked all the performances. I did a review... I think I mentioned this but the highlights were Hamilton, Gaga and Kenderick Lamar.

The Westminster Dog Show was this week too. I love dogs. I didn't watch this, but I love that they have new breeds and it seemed like an exciting show and I saw something that said "Everyone says they have the best dog and everyone is right." Or something like that. So true. All dogs are the best. My Spencer and my Lucky dogs the best!

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...

Top 10 Dating Tips/ Suggestions

So I've been in a relationship for about 2 and a half years... but before that I was single... for a very long time. And I was on dating apps for about a year or so before that... so here's what I learned from those apps. If you want more specific relationship advice I have from being in a relationship... that one might be a little harder but I guess I could do a blog on that too? Idk... I'm not an expert but I think I have some good tips.  Find an App That Works For You  I feel like not all apps work for everyone. I started on Bumble- and I like the app. I love the idea of girls taking the first move- but... I HATE making the first move apparently. So I would just match with a bunch of guys... and never really knew what to talk about. Plus I like having A LOT of info in my bio and Bumble just doesn't give enough space for me. I only went out with 1 guy from Bumble I think and it was bad.  So after that I tried Coffee Meets Bagel... which is terrible. Maybe depending on...

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...
