Weekly Wrap Up Thanksgiving Edition: 11/27/16



Favorites 
I honestly don't remember my favorites... this week was kind of a blur... so let's just kinda wing it?

The Middle- I thought that this weeks episode of The Middle was good. It was sad... but good. I was surprised that they kind of "went there" with the Axl and April story... but I liked it!

Charlie Brown Thanksgiving- I love this! It's so cute to see Snoopy cooking up "Thanksgiving dinner." I love it!

Simply Christmas by Leslie Odom, Jr.- I listened to this while cleaning the bathroom. Really good! Definitely like it a lot!

Life Scribbles
-Monday I went grocery shopping with my Mom at a place called Delicious Orchards... I think they don't usually open on Mondays... but they're pretty crazy the Monday before Thanksgiving... and yeah. They were packed. We also went to Target and some other grocery stores. I ate Onion Soup... it was a good day. 
-Tuesday I think I ate food again... lol.
-Wednesday I helped my mom clean and chop and we had dinner out and it was yummy.
-Thursday was Thanksgiving.
-Anddddd Friday and Saturday I got sick. 

TV Highlights 
Other than what I already mentioned... Colbert and Life in Pieces... which I'm starting to like a lot! 
Noteworthy Snacks 

News and World Events 
Kanye West showed up hours late to his concert, played about 3 songs and went on a 15 minute rant about Jay Z and Beyonce hiring people to kill him... and then checked into a hospital for exhaustion. His tour dates have been cancelled and I believe people are getting refunds already... so... yeah...

 Speaking of music: The AMAs were on! Lots of great performances, I was super impressed with Shawn Mendes... I don't know why I wasn't expecting him to be good... but he was really good. Green Day too. Selena Gomez gave a really great speech and I'm proud of her. She's someone I thought maybe wasn't the swiftest cat in the wild... but she seemed very smart, mature and together.

Mike Pence said that he didn't take offense to the cast of Hamilton speaking their mind... Revolutionary!


The Cars 3 trailer was released... this doesn't seem like a big deal if you've seen Cars 2... but trust me... watch the trailer! It seems like this is going to be the dark side of Pixar that we haven't really seen in the Cars movies... I'll link it in the clickables. 

Thoughts 
Thanksgiving and the Holidays are always kind of unpredictable. A few years ago I was waking up early to go shopping on Black Friday, then I was working it, last year I was getting my Bridesmaid dress for my sisters wedding and this year I was sick and slept through most of it... you can never tell what will happen... so just try to enjoy what you can and take care of yourself.

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...
