Weekly Wrap Up: Birthday Edition! 10.16.16



Favorites 
This American Horror Story Podcast- I really like American Horror Story... but I'm also a pretty big fan of this podcast for it. I've been really into it right now in particular... so this podcast has kind of helped me with my addiction. I like it a lot! 

The Visit- I've been watching a lot of Halloween movies... this one was my favorite so far I think. I'll have a little scribbles about movies about it in a little bit... but I really really liked it! It was mostly a funny movie... but the characters were well developed and it was just a really scary end that I was really surprised by! Its really a good movie. 

This is Us- I really like where this show is going. Its only on the third episode... but its just been really really good and I'm excited to continue watching it. There are lots of twists in all the story lines and every episode has sort of a twist... and there are lots of characters but they're really great characters and its interesting to see how they all connect! I would recommend watching this! 


Life Scribbles
-Monday my mom and I got Pork Roll and Cheese at a diner... it was really yummy. 
-Tuesday I went grocery shopping... and ate pizza and went to Ulta also... so that was fun. 
-Wednesday I went back to Ulta because I didn't get the points for my order... so I needed to get those and that was frustrating... lol. 
- Thursday grocery shopping again. Didn't go to Ulta this time. Went out to dinner later. 
- Friday I went to TGI Fridays and did some birthday shopping! American Eagle and Sephora! 
- Saturday I went to Target and to a Haunted House nearby... which I'll talk about in a blog soon! 

TV Highlights 
Monday I watched The Big Bang Theory... some of Kevin Can Wait and 2 Broke Girls... which has gotten really bad now... It was always kind of a fun show to have on in the background... but now its just... bad. The jokes are a little flat, there is just a lot going on... and its just not my thing anymore. 

And I feel bad saying that because the writers and actors on 2 Broke Girls are all really funny and amazing... I just think somethings gone wrong and they've jumped the shark. 

Tuesday was Scream Queens and This is Us... which I love! 

Wednesday was the ABC shows and AHS... which I love too! I really liked Speechless this week... I think this is getting so great! 

Thursday The Good Place and How To Get Away With Murder... both really good this week! I love How To Get Away With Murder! 

Friday... nothing good was on. 

Ohhh and during the show where the 2 most important powerful people in the US Yell at each other and they show it on every channel, my mom and I watched SNL with Lin Manuel Miranda... who is the best! 

Noteworthy Snacks
Delicious Orchards Apple Cider and Cider Donuts.  

News and World Events 
Its all terrible. 

Thoughts 
If you're a woman vote! People are saying repeal the 19th... it isn't funny because it it is an actual fear of mine that that will happen! 

If you're a man... I think we should take away your right to vote... lol. Jk. But see how ridiculous that is? Everyone has a right to vote! So do it! 


Clickables 
I'm bad with clickables! 

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...
