Scribbles About Food: The Original Cannoli Chips- Cookies and Cream and Powdered Sugar

So this is a relatively low calorie snack that is delicious and sweet. It's from a family owned business, with a family recipe which is really awesome.

These have "No artificial anything" they also have No Trans Fat, they're Non- GMO, Nut Free... so these are pretty allergy and diet friendly. The Cookies and Cream ones are 90 calories... I didn't check the original ones... but I think they're low calories for the most part and they have a pretty good serving size too. 8 chips is one serving size... which is a good amount for these. It is also certified kosher. These fit a lot of food restrictions and diet restrictions... these would taste great in some kind of dip... that would be less diet friendly but if you put these out at a party without dip... people would probably love them just like that also.

The Cookies and Cream ones remind me of the 100 Calorie Oreo Snack Packs that they used to have... idk if they still make these or not. The cookies and cream are super chocolatey and the powdered sugar makes it nice and sweet and flavorful. There is kind of an odd after taste to these... but they're pretty good regardless. It's something I would definitely buy again and eat.

The Powdered Sugar flavor is even better. It's just a plain cannoli chip... but its just better. These would taste amazing with ice cream or cannoli dip or something... but I LOVE them on their own anyway. This is a perfect sweet snack that's just so good. I don't even really miss the dip with these, that's how good they are on their own!

So I think I kind of like the regular Cannoli Chips you could get at the grocery store better than the Cookies and Cream flavor... but the Powdered Sugar flavor is Wayyyyy better than those that come with the cannoli dip... so this is just a really good snack. Highly Recommend... definitely something I'll eat again!

Byee!

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...

Throwback Thursday: Crazy Ex Girlfriend Season 1

One of my favorite shows is the very underrated Crazy Ex Girlfriend... and when I say underrated I mean the ratings are bad... I'm pretty sure there is a lot of critical hype that is very real and worthy of that sort of hype... I honestly didn't watch it live at all this year until the finale... it was all in my DVR... I had lost a little bit of interest to be honest after the first episode... but I bingewatched it all in one day pretty much and it was great... but that's season 2... let's go back to Season 1. If you're only familiar with Season 2... Season 1 isn't quite as dark. It's definitely more silly than Season 2. It isn't like the darkness and the drama isn't there, it just isn't quite as dark. I have a feeling the show is getting progressively darker, and the Season 2 finale was definitely the darkest so far. The show is meant to be a different spin on a Rom-Com. The girl moves across the country for a guy that has a girlfriend alrea...
