Weekly Wrap Up 3/25/17


Favorites 

Sing- This is such a cute movie! I got the blu ray and watched it this week... it's just a cute little feel good movie. Not as much actual singing as I thought there would be, but all the singing is really good still. And it's just one of those cute ones! I recommend watching it! 

The Most Popular Girls in School- This is a great web series... I think it was a favorite last week or a few weeks ago... but I finished it... and I'm already watching it again. It's really funny. 

Trial and Error- This is a great show! I had it as a favorite last week... it still keeps getting better. Highly recommend it. 

News and World Events
Chuck Berry died... which is sad. He was an amazing talent and he really did invent Rock and Roll... which is the basis for so many other genres of music... it's very sad.

First day of Spring Happened... so there's a thing.

National Puppy Day was this week. Technically it was the 23rd, but Spencer would argue it's also the 24th... and the 25th... and all the other days of the year. 

Someone on Wheel of Fortune was solving the puzzle. The Puzzle read like this A Streetcar Na_ed Desire. He guessed K... It went viral. The answer was of corse A Streetcar Named Desire!

Noteworthy Snacks 
Cannoli Chips! I'll have a review on those soon! 

Chobani Flips... 

I had some really great Bagels this week! 

Music
I listened to Ed Sheeran a lot again... I like the song New Man right now! 

Quotes

"This stage is about to explode with major Piggy Power!"- Gunther from sing 

Thoughts 
My baby niece has started smiling and I got her to give me big smiles... and that was the best! 

Clickables 
My thoughts on marriage

Lin Manuel Miranda's Puppy - He wrote Dear Theodosia based on how he found his puppy. It's a really sweet story.

Snoopy- This is a cute image I saw on puppy day. \

Trial and Error  as of right now you can see all 4 episodes on NBC.com... which I don't think you need a cable provider for. If you do have cable, NBC is pretty good on having every episode available on demand. I definitely recommend checking it out!

Byeee!

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...
