Weekly Wrap Up 3/12/17

Favorites 

The Most Popular Girls In School- I started watching this show again recently... I think I saw Brittany Matthews Facebook page for National Women's Day and I just thought "Ohhh that was funny... I'm going to watch this again." And I have been... and Brittney Matthews is my Spirit animal. 

Divide by Ed Sheeran- Ed Sheeran is so talented. *dreamy sigh* this is just such a good cd. It has a lot of Irish sounding music and some Spanish-sounding music and some rap... and some other stuff... that's the only way I can describe it... it's really one of the best cds out recently... I love it! 

Friends- I was kind of just mad at the world on Wednesday... for no real reason... just the time of the month... anyway... the only thing not making me mad was Friends, the TV show. Idk why I was like "yeah... I'm going to watch friends now." But I think I'm going to start watching it again... I'll probably do Throwback Thursdays because that's what I do... and it'll be good! I like the show a lot and it's been good! I pretty much watch it nonstop every few years and then I get tired of it and don't watch it for a year or 2 and then I watch it nonstop again

News and World Events

Wednesday was International Woman's Day... I did some blogs on that on my Feminist blog... so that was good. I'll link that in the clickables maybe. 

Mac Cosmetics will now be sold at Ulta stores... I think that's kind of cool... I'm a little shocked... but I'll be more inclined to try Mac products now that they're at Ulta and I can get points for it. It's kind of a bad thing for Mac but a good thing for Ulta! 

Other makeup related news Anastasia Beverly Hills had a robbery in their labs. Apparently it was 4.5 Million Dollars worth of the Modern Renaissance Palettes... which is probably my favorite palette... so just be careful if you're buying a Modern Renaissance palette from Ebay or something... be careful of that anyway... but especially now. Lol. 

Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck called off their divorce! They're working on their marriage and decided to stay together! Good for them! I hope that the two are happy together. Everyone says she's one of the nicest people in Hollywood and I don't really like Ben Affleck and what he did to her... but she loves him and she always praises him as a father... so I'm glad they've worked things out. Props to anyone that works on their relationship! I'm sure that it 

Speaking of the Afflecks... Brie Larson has spoken out about not applauding Casey Affleck when she presented his Oscar win... by not speaking about it. She said that the action spoke for itself. Affleck settled out of court for a Sexual Assault case while filming the movie he directed with Joaquin Phoenix... Denzel should have probably won anyway. I didn't see any of the movies... but Denzel should have probably won. I do still kind of want to see Manchester by the Sea because I love Michelle Williams... but yeah. Denzel! 

In Celebrity donation news: Some of the Cast and Crew of Hamilton donated a portion of the money that they made on Wednesday- International Woman's Day- to Dress for Success. And Chance the Rapper donated 1 Million Dollars to Chicago Schools. 

Noteworthy Snacks 

I had some good lasagna this week... 

Chocolate Coconut Dove Eggs. Yum. 

Music
Aside from the Ed Sheeran CD, Crazy Ex Girlfriend Season 2's soundtrack. Pretty good! 


Quotes
"It's like a Cow's Opinion- It Doesn't Matter. It's Moo." - Joey Tribiani explaining a "Moo Point" on friends! 

Thoughts 
It's always fun to revisit things you used to like a lot... that's what I've been doing a lot lately at least. I've watched Dr. Horrible and Chicago again and then 2 of the things I mentioned as favorites this week are old favorites!

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...

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...
