Weekly Wrap Up: 8.14.16


Favorites 
The Office- I decided to re-watch the office this week. I really like that show, I'm doing a throwback thursday on it soon... and its just really good. Great show. Happy to be watching it again! 

Tropicana Peach Lemonade Juice- I've still been loving the watermelon juice... but the Peach Lemonade is really addictive too. It tastes more like oranges than peaches... but its really really good! I really recommend it, I think anyone that likes oranges and lemonade would probably really like it.

Cotton Candy Grapes- I don't think I need to explain this. Cotton Candy Grapes exist... and they are just as delicious as you would think they would be! 

Snippets from the week 
-Monday I went out with my mom and some of our friends. 
-Tuesday... I went in the pool and read some of Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates... which I don't think is a book made for me... lol. 
- Wednesday I didn't do too much. I had a whats up wednesday that was really funny because my wednesday was disgusting.
-Thursday I went out to lunch with my mom and dinner later in the day.
-Friday was kind of a crazy day and my aunts came over to have dinner and look at pictures from my sisters wedding. 

TV Highlights 
TV was really good this week! American Gothic was great this week! I watched the Office a lot, there was a Fresh Off The Boat Marathon. Good week! 

Noteworthy Snacks 
I've mentioned them already pretty much. Lol. I had some good brownies this week too.

And good pizza. White pizza with tomato and basil... lots of good stuff. 
News and World Events 

Alex Rorigez announced that he is leaving Baseball. This is all I've heard on the news all day.

Some idiot scaled Trump Tower in Support of Donald Trump... I don't care who you're voting for, if you scale a building in todays day and age... and it the heat we've been having. He's an idiot... don't even give him the time of day for the news. He had his 15 minutes.

I don't know if this is new news or not...but Universal now owns the rights to the Harry Potter series and JK Rowling's future works. What does that mean? No more Harry Potter Weekends on Free Form. Instead they will be on Sci Fi. As well as Fantastic Beasts and where to find them. Seems more fitting. I honestly never watch Free Form since they changed the name from ABC Family. Lol. So that says a lot about the name.

Thomas Gibson was suspended from Criminal Minds after having a physical fight with one of the writer/producers over creative differences... so that's a thing.

There were also creative differences between Brittney Spears and a director of her newest music video and fans are angry that she's not showing that video... but here's what it boils down to... Usually if there are creative differences, its not the best video. If Brittney doesn't want to show it, its probably not the best... so fans if you see it, chances are good you'll be disappointed. But then again, I'm not really a fan of hers... so maybe I'm biased that way.

The new American Horror story theme still seems to be quite under wraps... but its being teased everywhere. Looks like its about some sort of demon baby and its called 6. Sarah Paulson is confirmed to be returning for sure.

Macy's will be closing 100 stores and Ruby Tuesday will be closing 95. There's a Macy's in the fancy mall by me that I could see closing... I can't see it closing in my regular mall because its pretty popular there. I think all the Ruby Tuesdays by me should be closed... they're disgusting. There was a worm in my mom's salad years ago and they were like "Well do you want a new salad" ... so that kinda sucks. And then there was a pigeon in the restaurant when she went another time and they were trying to smack it with a broom and they were getting dust all over... so yeah. If Ruby Tuesday wanted to clean their stores, maybe they'd be a little more successful. Same with Macy's more or less. Lol.

Thoughts 
Some days are just gross... like actually "picking up dog crap all day and cleaning it" gross. And that's probably better than having a poopy day in the metaphorical sense.

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...

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...

Some Pretty Funny Mini Stories That Happened Recently

Okay... so I feel like I have a few stories to tell... a lot of random funny things have happened this past week or so and I just feel like telling them... so yeah. Hope these are interesting. The Penny Pincher  This actually happened a while ago. And some backstory: My mom and I babysit my niece on weekdays and my niece is a toddler- who is pretty easygoing- and I don't really mind watching her on my own...but somedays it gets a little long and it's nice to have 2 people there. Anyway she had to go to the grocery store to get a tomato sauce... and we like a particular kind of tomato sauce... some woman actually took that tomato sauce out of her cart and put the generic version in her cart because "this woman knows tomato sauce and this stuff is the same." It really wasn't the same at all... the type I think had diced tomatoes and that isn't what we needed for the recipe or something like that. The tomatoes were different and it wouldn't have worked wi...
