Scribbles About Life: 10.17.16

My first day as a 25 year old... here's what happened!

I woke up super early... I did makeup that was a little weird, different than what I usually do... but still nice and yeah. It's Ravenclaw inspired and it will be on a blog coming soon.

Then my mom and I went to Costco. She needed to return something and we looked around a little bit. It was fun.

But then we needed coffee... so we went to Starbucks! Which happens to be inside of a Target... so we looked at Target! I got Crayola Markers and the book Big Little Lies by Liane Moriarity... Idk what its about but its for my book club.

And we went to AC Moore to look at halloween decorations and stuff and then CVS because that's always fun.

We were going to go to a Greek place that we liked... but its closed apparently, which is really sad... so we went to a different Greek Place and that was good too.

Then we went to my mom's friends house and talked a little bit.

Then I went home and colored. I got a few new coloring books for my birthday and the one I was currently working on was Gullivers New Travels. Its not based on the book Gulliver's Travels per se... its by James Gulliver Hancock and it shows a town and it looks like there's kind of a story to go with it... so I've been working on that today...

And yeah. That is about it. Have a good night!

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...

Blogmas Day 12: The 12 Days of Christmas Gift Guide

So I thought it would be fun to do a gift guide that every gift corresponds with the price. So like for the first day of Christmas $1 gift that would be good and then up from there. These would be good stocking stutterers and things I just think are unique. $1- Solar Powered Dancers!  My mom loves getting the little dancing solar powered people. We get most of ours from Dollar tree... other dollar stores have them too, they're super cute and fun for $1. Its good to put near any plants that you have that way you know they're getting sunlight. It's a good gift. $2- Mini Coloring Book!  At 5 Below they had some mini travel sized coloring books for $2. I thought these were pretty cool. I got the Botanical one I believe. Really cute and fun! I would recommend! $3-   Ceramic Truck w/ Christmas Tree  I saw this at the Target Dollar Spot and I thought it was cute and would probably make a great gift. If you know someone who has a truck or likes the sort of "rustic C...

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...
