Scribbles About Food: Olive Garden Chicken Parm Sandwich Review

So... I thought I'd review an Olive Garden Sandwich because I was curious about it since it was released. I don't have pictures of anything... I wish I did... I debated posting this because there were no pictures... but I don't think I'm going to order this again... so yeah.

Salad and Breadsticks 
First let's talk about the Salad and the breadsticks. You can get a soup or salad with every order and you always get breadsticks. I love the breadsticks! They're nice and warm and not overly garlic-y but not too garlic-y. I just like them. And I like the salad too... its not the freshest salad... it tastes good though. I like it. I get it without olives because I don't like olives.

Chicken Parm Breadstick Sandwich and Fries 
So this sandwich wasn't bad... but I don't think I'm a big fan of Olive Garden's tomato sauce... there's nothing really awful about it... but its a little much. It didn't have a bad taste or anything... it's just kind of tomato-y. I'm not sure how some tomato sauce can be more or less tomato-y than others... but this was especially tomato-y and it just wasn't my favorite.

I liked the bread. It wasn't just like the breadsticks that they always serve... it was a sandwich bread that was kind of the same consistency as the breadsticks... and that was pretty good. I liked the texture and it wasn't bad with the sandwich.

The cheese on the sandwich was pretty good... not a whole lot, most chicken parm sandwiches kind of don't have the most cheese... it is what it is. The cheese gets lost in the bread a little bit... but this wasn't too bad... it was just overwhelmingly tomato-y.

The main reason I ordered this sandwich was because of the fries... I really wanted fries that day... and I LOVED their fries! They were nice and crispy and thin... and really really yummy. Salty, but not too salty. The ketchup was where the over- tomato-yness started for real though... cause that ketchup tasted extra tomato-y... Idk if it was regular Heinz... didn't taste like it... really not sure about it.

So yeah... that's kind of everything. Not my favorite... not something I'd order again... let me check Olive Garden's Menu to see what other sandwiches they might have... they have another Spicy Calibran sandwich... not sure what that is... but it might not have tomato sauce... so yeah? That might be good... I just want to get those fries again. Lol.

BTW- This was a lunch combo where you can get soup or salad and then a lunch option. I thought you used to always get salad with it... but yeah. I guess not?

Byeee!

Scribbles about TV: Jane The Virgin Review!

This I think is a surprise hit, so of corse I needed to watch it for myself to see! It's been getting a lot of critical buzz because it has been reviewed as "one of the best pilots of the season" and I also have been hearing a few critics saying that they don't think it will last because the word "virgin" is in the title... which is stupid. There is nothing wrong with being a virgin and if a show is good, its good and people should watch it... plus this did bring pretty high ratings for The CW so the critics that said that can suck it! Lol. Overall I really liked this show. One thing thats been bothering me a lot about the new Fall shows is that the characters aren't interesting enough. Especially the female characters. I thought that this showed a lot of really strong female characters that were interesting. This had a pretty big cast with A LOT of stuff going on for a pilot and most of the characters were female. That is a powerful thing to see on TV...

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 TV: Jane The Virgin Finale Review (SPOILERS)

So.... Can we talk about all the twists because there were a lot! I didn't even see all of them coming! Alrighty we start out in typical Jane The Virgin Mode with Jane's choice between Raphael and Michael... I'd be okay with either but I think I'm team Michael. Jane has a weird moment with Raphael and thinks she's better off without him and just having him be the father of her child. She's also starting to have some feelings for Michael again. Then she almost has the baby on the bus and some woman helps her and gets the bus driver to take her to the hospital. Rogellio and Xo are in Vegas and they get drunk and can't remember what happens, but they make it just in time to see Jane deliver a baby boy. I knew it would be a boy! Lets pause on that a little and go to Michael and his ex partner/friend with benefits who comes back says she has a lead on Sin Rostro, gives him an address where the plastic surgeon is and by the time Michael gets there, he's de...
