It List! February 2017

1) Crazy Ex Girlfriend- I bingewatched the second season from my tivo in about a day... and it was really good! I think the first season was a little funnier... but I liked the second season so much that I actually went back and watched the first season again and now I'm watching season 2 again... even though I just watched it all... the CW is an awesome network to watch on netflix... highly recommend.

2) Jane The Virgin- Jane the Virgin is a very quick show... storylines happen and they're very dramatic and none of them ever really get solved but it's all very quick because it is a telenovela and it does follow that style... I'm guessing at least. American Soap Opera's are a lot slower than this... but this is all quite quick... I feel like Jane's relationship and marriage to Michael kind of slowed everything down a bit... and the stories were really cute and nice... but then... that storyline ended and now it's kind of back to being very quick and dramatic and they just did everything in a nice way. I really like it!

3) The Great Comet of 1812- After seeing Hamilton in January and re-watching Crazy Ex Girlfriend I realized I just really liked musicals... and this one is what I've been listening to a lot lately! I'm listening to the original off broadway musical cast because the Original Broadway cast recording is not released yet... I'm sure it will be... so Josh Groban isn't in what I'm listening too... but Philippa Soo is and that's awesome! If you look up the Comet of 1812... the venue is actually really cool. It was shown in a small dinner theater and the actors were running around the aisles and it made it almost interactive... I think the broadway version does that as well... but that must have been super cool to see!

4) A Dog's Purpose- I saw this movie and it was really really cute. I cried more than I cried in any movie ever... it was really good. I have a review on it somewhere on this blog... so I won't get too into it... but it's a good movie!

5) BLT LunchBreak Podcast- This is just a super funny podcast. I watch The Tim Tracker on youtube, he's in this podcast and it's just a really fun one! I like it a lot! It's just 3 friends catching up, talking about theme parks and dunkin donuts and other things... it's pretty cool!

6) Joanne by Lady Gaga- I love this cd! I'm seeing Lady Gaga pretty soon, so I've been listening to it in anticipation and excitement... but it is just a really really good one! I love it!

7) Dr. Teal's Relax and Refresh Eucalyptus Spearmint Soothing Bath Soak w/ Pure Epsom Salt- This smells really nice and it's just a very relaxing scent. I've really been loving it this month... I think I'm actually almost out... so that is a little bit upsetting... but it is a really really good bubble bath. Epsom Salts are supposed to be good if you have sores... I don't love bath salts... I prefer bubble bath... so this just works really well for me.

8) Daytime TV- I kind of like daytime tv... I like game shows a lot. The Price is Right and Let's Make A Deal are great... Millionaire is pretty good... I LOVE The Chew... Carla Hall is queen... and I've just sort of been watching it a little more. I've been at my sister's house a lot and usually The Chew, Millionaire and Right This Minute are on... so that's what we watch (along with the baby) and it's pretty good. It's something I think is worthy of a favorite this month.

9) Life in Pieces- This is always kind of a favorite on these It lists because I have it on a lot and it doesn't really get old. I don't get tired of it at least... it's a really funny show... I would recommend checking it out!

10) The Santa Clarita Diet- I forgot about this because I watched it all in one day... but it is a really great show and deserves to be mentioned on this It List! I really like it, highly recommend watching it... it isn't really that gory and it's just easy to watch all in one day. It's a little creepy... but it is a good one!

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...

Man Crush Monday: Jimmy Fallon

Jimmy Fallon is one of my favorite talk show hosts... and I pretty much like all the late night talk show hosts... so that is saying a lot. (I haven't actually watched James Cordin yet, but I have a huge crush on him from Into The Woods, so yeah. I also have a crush on Seth Meyer though... And all the comedy central guys... ugh. Lol. and obviously Jimmy Fallon. Lol.) So yeah... this is saying a lot that he is one of my favorites. 1) He genuinely acts like he has the most fun job in the world-  Jimmy Fallon is always really excited about the show. He pretty much does have the most fun job ever, and he actually appreciates it. He was on SNL, and when he left SNL for late night he was excited and proud of his job, and now on The Tonight Show he's very happy. 2) His Ice Cream Flavors are good- This one is completely random... but I feel like having Ben and Jerry's make an ice cream flavor after you is a really big honor and a great responsibility. You can tell a lot about a...
