Superbowl Smackdown! Superbowl 51

Hamilton wrote the other 51!!! Jk... that's just what I think of when I hear the word 51 now.

This didn't seem like it would be the most exciting Super Bowl ever. It was the Falcons second Super Bowl ever and they've never won... so it seemed that this would be kind of a cased closed, easy win for the Patriots... who have won Superbowls several times before.

As it turns out... the Falcons kind of kicked ass in the game up until around the 3rd quarter. It seemed impossible for the Patriots to win after that... but The Patriots were able to tie in the 4th Quarter and then won when the game went into overtime in the First time in Superbowl History!!!!!

But now to the fun part... What'd I eat? Lol. I don't know if I've done this in the past Superbowl Smackdown's in previous years... but I thought I'd do it this year. We always have the same things for the most part. Chli in sort of a "do it yourself" type of way. We have all sorts of taco bowls and toppings and things for the chili. And we have a sandwich platter from a really good deli near us... we had chips and dip, cheetos... Doritos I think... and Chicken Wings. Hot wings and a Honey Barbecue Chicken. Super good... until my dog stole one of the Honey Barbecue Wings and I put the dog germs one down with the other ones... which was dumb lol. We had finished eating the wings by then... but still. And for dessert we had a trifle that my mom's friend made and ice cream cake and crumb cake... I just had the Trifle... but it was all really great! I was so full from all the other food!

I didn't pay much attention to the commercials because of the party... but I did see a few before and after the game itself. The Melissa McCarthy Commercial was really great. There was one commercial that was about a girl driving a car that I think I'm going to have to do a whole post on because it sounded empowering... so expect that on Scribbles About Feminism soon. The Budwiser commercial about immigration was really good and powerful. I liked the ones with the celebrity yearbook photos... although that didn't really sound like Steve Carell. There was one with a dog for Budwiser that was really really stupid. I thought most of them were pretty good, none super funny and memorable... but I liked them a lot! They were all good!

And after the show... the new 24 series 24: Legacy. I didn't watch it, I saw a little bit of it tonight though and it sounded great! I'm going to watch it for sure!

Alright... just finished Jane The Virgin tonight... omg... reaction tomorrow! Was not expecting that!

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...

Uhhhh... Where Have I been?

 So it hasn't been that long- but I did mention that I wanted to keep this more of a daily-ish blog than I have in years past... and my last post was the  4th and today was the 11th. Did I give up on my resolutions already?  No/Sort of... sooo basically I was kind of considering the real start of the new year January 5th... I was very busy with work things up until the 4th... the 4th was the big work event that I had to do... and then after that I could focus on whatever I wanted to focus on... and my blogs were going to be the number 1 thing that I focused on for sure... I might miss a few days... but surely I'd do something for this blog right on the 5th after the big work thing was done... so just leading up to that as long as I post something- everything is good right?  Nope- I realized my room design... needed some refreshing. And then one project turned into several projects and then that took a few days... I think I started on doing stuff on Wednesday of last ...

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...
