Bridesmaid Diaries: The Last Few Days

So I mentioned the Rehearsal Dinner, and then there were 2 days until the wedding... so I figured I'd talk about what we did those 2 days. Thursday was the rehearsal dinner, Sunday was the wedding, Friday and Saturday were the "Bonus Days", which I would just say take your time and enjoy. Do something fun and relaxing for yourself. Have some fun!

Friday 
Friday was fun! Stacey and I went to the Salon near us, which is Spa Disneyworld... they have everything! Stacey stayed there a little earlier and got a facial. I went later and got a manicure and pedicure... and it was the best. Lol. My feet have been feeling so much better since that pedicure, I swear! They blistered a little bit at the wedding, but it didn't hurt to wear I couldn't walk the next day because of that pedicure it was amazing! They put a hot neck pillow on your neck and a cooled eye mask on while they were doing the pedicure... so nice.

And we got a gel french manicure... it was just really nice. It was a fun day.

We also went to one of the hotels and left the overnight bags for the guests at the hotels. We did that on Saturday also. And we ate food at a greek place thats like a greek chipotle... and it was delicious!

Saturday 
Saturday we mostly just hung out. My parents got us donuts for the morning, and my dad and sister ate at a healthy-ish place near us. My mom and I went to take my Aunt who doesn't live around here to buy a jacket because she didn't bring one and she was cold on her train. Then we watched Troop Beverly Hills and my parents took a nap and then we went out for dinner... and we had salads because we didn't want a nervous stomach.

Then my dad and I worked on our speeches because we work better under pressure... so we were waiting till the total last minute and our speeches turned out great! I was happy with it. I'm going to print it out with a fancy font and frame it and put it in her room next time she stays over here.

And then the morning of was pretty good! We were all happy, not really nervous or anything... just happy! But I'll get to that next time! Lol.

Byeee!

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...
