The Thanksgiving Tag!

I haven't done a tag in a while... so here is one that I found right here. 
1. What is your favorite Thanksgiving side dish?

Hmmm tough choice... but I really love Stovetop Stuffing. I think I've blogged about this before... I don't care how fancy your stuffing recipe is... chances are I will like Stovetop better. My mom also makes great Sweet Potatoes with walnuts on top... so yummy! 

2. What is your favorite Thanksgiving dessert?

Hmmm I feel like this always changes. My sister makes a really good pumpkin Tres Leche cake... and anything my cousin Amanda cooks. She is a professional chef, so whatever she makes is just amazing. I have a feeling she might be working this year... which is sad, but she's amazing! 

3. What does your ideal Thanksgiving outfit look like?

I like Sweater dresses. It's fancy but you can still wear leggings so its still comfy. 


4. What is your best Thanksgiving memory?
When I was like 5 I believe my parents and my sister and I went to the Thanksgiving Day Parade and I had on this really cute purple jacket with a black fur collar and one of the clowns in the parade said "I like your jacket!" And I was star struck! Lol. And still TO THIS DAY I remember it and it was amazing! 

5. Least favorite Thanksgiving dish.

Probably vegetables... but maybe this year I'll try some. There was one year I kind of liked Turnip. 

6. Do you have any quirky Thanksgiving traditions?

Nothing Quirky really... I kind of have to see A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving though! I think I'm going to convince my parents that having KFC the day before thanksgiving should be a tradition... because last year the day after Thanksgiving my mom and I went to Staten Island too look at dresses for my sisters wedding. We didn't get home too late... but we were kind of exhausted and my mom just said "What should we have to eat" and I said "KFC!" And it was the best meal ever. I think the day before Thanksgiving might work out better for us though! 

7. Where do you and your family usually celebrate Thanksgiving?

Usually at my house. The year we went to the Macy's Parade we went to my Grandparents house. 

8. What do you love most about Thanksgiving?

I love how loud my house gets. Everyone is talking and laughing and having a good time and it gets really loud and its kind of fun! 

9. What do you think has changed most since the first Thanksgiving?

Shopping definitely! I don't think the pilgrims intended for people to stop actually even having Thanksgiving so that they could go shopping early... although, I think the Pilgrims were just in it for maize... so I'm sure they would appreciate the deals. 

10. What are you thankful for?

Friends, family, dogs... the fact that I seem to have good luck winning random contests, the Target Dollar Spot and other dollar stores, the leaves that are changing and the nice weather we've been having, Alexander Hamilton, the Obama Biden Memes... lol. There's a lot I guess. 

And here is the Addam's Family Values Thanksgiving scene. Its my favorite. Here it is! 

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...

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 Books: Horns by Joe Hill

I picked this book up not too long ago because after seeing the trailer for the movie and seeing it was based on a book I thought "Hey, that looks good. I should read the book." Then my friend gave me a Barnes and Noble gift card for my birthday and I thought "Hey I wanted to read Horns, I should grab that." And I did, and I had to read it around halloween of corse! So this is my kind of horror story first of all. I love that the universe it takes place in is very realistic and very small-town. If you've noticed in some of my other book reviews... I like mysteries that take place in small towns. And its very believable because the world and the characters are all so real. I think its a good book just for that. The book starts out with this guy Ignatious, or Ig a year after his girlfriend Merrin is murdered. He grows horns from out of his head... for no real reason. And then a few chapters in we find out who really did it and then we find out why and that thi...
