Blogmas Day 13: Tag Tuesday SANTAS Tag

I thought this one would be fun for Tag Tuesday.... so here we go! I just saw this on youtube a few years ago and I looked up the questions!

S- Show us your favorite Christmas Pajamas 
I don't really have any... I just like any and all pajamas. This is a pair I used to have a while ago and I don't have it any more... but I still have fond memories of it because it was so comfy underneath all my blankets when it was super cold in my room... and on my dog's first thanksgiving he just snuggled up with me and he would not leave my side. And I thought he liked the pajamas at first, but I think he just wanted to be best friends... so here is that picture of my dogs first Thanksgiving.

See us? Being best friends and stuff? So cute! 

A-A Smell that reminds you of Christmas 
Last year American Eagle gave out free Balsam candles with purchase and that makes me think of christmas. It smells really good in the house, my dad burns it downstairs when he has a fire going and it just makes everything smell so good! 

N-Number 1 Item on Your Wish List This Year 
I don't really have a number 1 item. I'm seeing Hamilton in January... I'm good! Lol. 

T- Tell us the best gift you ever received? Ever Gave? 
I think aside from my two dogs... definitely the Hamilton tickets. Lol. I was so surprised on my birthday when I got them and I'm still soooo excited! Best gift I ever gave... hmm I really like doing the giving tree things for charity... so I don't get to see the reactions to what I give... but its always fun to shop for them! 

A- Angel or Star at the top of the Tree? 
We always have an Angel and I think that is what I'll always have because that's sort of integral to our tree. We don't do themed trees... but we always have the angels near the top of the tree... so it wouldn't make sense if we had a star!

S- Share an Old Picture of You During the Holidays 
Here I am in Disney World when I was 18!

T- Treasured Traditions- What Are Yours? 
Trying to think of ones I didn't mention for my tag last week... I like decorating the tree and placing all the ornaments in the same specific spot... 

A- A Beauty Product You Can't Live Without during the Christmas Holidays? 
Vanilla Bean Noel Fragrance Mist from Bath and Body Works. It smells amazing! I love it! 

G- Greatest Christmas Dessert You've ever had? 
Any type of cookie is kind of my favorite... and I mentioned that last week... but I'm going to mention something I didn't think I'd like but I ended up loving that I tried last year: Stolen! It's sort of like a fruit cake, but its a bread. I like putting it in the microwave with some butter on it... so yummy and sugary! Didn't think I would like it because I don't really like fruit... but this was really yummy and good! 

So yep... that is everything! Hope you liked this, I had fun with it! 

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...
