November 2016: It List

Here are some of my favorites this month!

1) Late Night TV- So after the events of the election... I figured I would watch as much Late Night TV as I could... so I've been trying to watch just about every show. My favorite is Stephen Colbert... so far. I also really like John Oliver though. Seth Meyers and James Corden are really funny. I like Jimmy Fallon a lot. I started watching Samantha Bee too... so yeah. That is a lot of late night tv... I will probably watch more just because its easy and its fun... and a good way to keep up with the news in a satirical way. If you want a lighter satire I'd say Jimmy Fallon and the... darkest satire is probably Sam Bee or John Oliver because they're on cable and can kind of tell it like it is.

2) Sugar Cookie Egg Nog- I almost don't want to even mention this because its hard to get and its really really good... we've been buying as many as we can when we see it... so if you live in Central Jersey... sorry for the low stock and also don't buy it because I want it! Lol. But yeah... it is amazing! I love it. They haven't had it in a couple years... but they brought it back, and now I'm happy. Lol. I'm not even saying the brand because... I'm selfish. It's Hood. Lol.

3) How To Get Away With Murder- That twist though!!!!! Was not expecting that at all... I'm a little sad... but I think its a good twist and I'm curious to see how the rest of the series goes.

4) Hamilton- If you're wondering if I still like Hamilton or not... I do even more now! I listened to it so much during the election... and its helping me have faith in the world and I feel like I have a new appreciation for it.

5) Super Carlin Brothers- I love these guys! They have really interesting videos, now they're mostly about Disney and Pixar, which I also love... but the first couple years they just had conversations and it was really interesting and I like just having on Super Carlin Brothers while I do things like clean my room or something because it is just a lot of fun.

6) Joanne by Lady Gaga- Great cd. I actually just did a review on it right here and I think its really good. Its kind of different and I really liked it! Its a good one!

7) Johanna's Christmas- Speaking of Joanne, Johanna's Christmas is a coloring book I got recently that I've really been liking. It gets me in the christmasy mood and its just a good one! I really like it a lot!

8) Simply Christmas By Leslie Odom Jr- I'm going to have a review on this soon enough, but I really like it! He has a nice voice... and Ave Maria just brings tears to my eyes. Its a beautiful cd and I recommend downloading it or streaming it if you can.

And I think that is everything! Hope everyone is having a nice day!

Byeee!

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...

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...

How To-sday: How To Arrange a Bookshelf

Ahhhh arranging a bookshelf. If you thought you knew how to do it you're probably wrong because I just did it wayyy better! 1) Use it For DVDs  I don't always keep a lot of my books... so many of my book shelves are really DVD shelves. So yeah. 2)  By Genre...  You ever think "Hey I'm in the mood for a horror Movie" and all you're finding is rom coms? Fear no more! Just arrange your dvds according to different genres. I have a section for Romantic Comedies/Chick Flicks, Horror and serious movies... on that shelf I also have my X Files DVDs and Tim Burton Movies because that fit there... One shelf I have cartoons, kids movies and holiday movies... one shelf is comedies, next shelf is TV... and I think that's it. 3) Give Wes Anderson Movies Their Own Shelf-  The only movie that didn't fit in my collection was The Royal Tenenbaums... Couldn't figure out where to put it... so it might get it's own shelf. Maybe I'll get other Wes Anders...
