Underrated Things/People #1

So I thought I'd just shout out a few things that are underrated in different categories... and then we'll see what happens. Lol.

Movie: Dark Shadows 
This is probably not the #1 most underrated movie... but that's what inspired the post. The Blu Ray was on sale at Target for $5! I love this movie and for $5 I love it even more. I thought Johnny Depp was great as a vampire. I thought Eva Green was really funny and bitchy and just awesome... and I just really liked it a lot! So yeah... for $5 sign me up.

Singer: Nick Jonas 
Can we all just appreciate that Nick Jonas is grown up and is now kind of hot? And not only that, but he has a hot voice. You could kinda tell when the Jonas Brothers had that song Burnin up... and then when he did the "I still get jealous song..." The guy is hot and awesome and underrated.

Actress: Nia Vardalos 
Nia Vardalos hasn't been in many movies and she's more of a writer... but she's my favorite! I think I've seen almost every movie she's been in and I just think she needs more recognition... she's awesome!

Show: The Goldbergs
 The Goldbergs is a really great, heartwarming and funny show. I feel like its overshadowed by Modern Family and blackish... which are also great shows... but I like The Goldbergs more and want a little more love for it.

Book Series: The Princess Diaries 
When everyone was reading Harry Potter in school... I was reading Princess Diaries... and I continued reading it in all of my schools pretty much. Elementary School, Middle School, High School and College and even after... lol. Its just a great series of books and it always makes me smile. I'm a lot like Mia and I think thats really cool. Harry Potter is cool too... but I will always have a special place in my heart for The Princess Diaries Book Series. The movies are good too... but the books are wayyyy better!

And I think that is all I'm going to talk about now. I'll probably do more of these soon... maybe very soon. Its just been a long day... usually I have my posts ready to go at 7:30... not so much the last few days... so yeah.

Byeee!

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...

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...
