Scribbles! : 4/8/17

Scribbles: 4.8.17 

Saturday 4.1 
April Fool’s Day! I watched Trial and Error with my mom and grandmother… and it was really funny. I love that show and could watch it over and over and over again. And then we went out for Hibachi and that was really, really good too! We had a great time! 

Sunday 4.2 
I went out for lunch with my parents and I had chicken fingers and a milkshake… then I went to Ulta… went babysitting at my sister’s house and then for dinner with my friend and her puppy and I had chicken fingers and a shake again pretty much lol. It was great! I had a Fried Chicken Fingers and Sweet Corn Mash Bowl from Brick Wall and a Nutella shake for dessert. 

Since we went with her dog, who is a super adorable Corgi puppy… everyone stopped by and said “OMG he’s the cutest!” And… it was a little bit much… lol. We still talked and had a good time… but seriously if you see a bunch of people approach someone with a cute dog… maybe let them live their lives and admire from afar. And don’t pick up their dog! Some woman kept picking him up and she kept telling her “He doesn’t like being picked up,” and it was just like at some point we were about to go “Hey, back the F*** off!” Just ask before petting and never pick up anyone’s dog. You never really know how a dog is going to react to a new person… and when you train dogs you have to hold them a little differently and there are ways to pick them up… so don’t do that to a strangers dog because you just don’t know. If it’s family or friends that is different… but otherwise, just ask before petting and don’t pick the puppy up. 


Monday 4.3 
Today was the first day of babysitting at my house for my baby niece… so that was a lot of fun. She likes anything that starts with the letter B and stories about her Mommy and Daddy… so I have to remember that! I got some blogging done too… so that’s good. Not quite sure how I want to do “Shannon Does Stuff” this month… we’ll see. I have something in mind… but idk how it will work out! 

Tuesday 4.4 
Today was babysitting again! She was good most of the day, she fell asleep in my arms for a while. She cried kind of a lot… but that’s okay! My mom read her a book that I picked out for her and really liked it! I just kind of saw the cover and said “This is pretty!” So we got it for that… but the story itself was really really cute too and the illustrations were all beautiful! It’s called Will You Be My Sunshine by Julia Lobo and illustrated by Nicola Slater. I’ll insert a picture. My mom knows a lot about kids books- she has friends with kids and grandkids and she worked at a book store- had also never heard of it and she loved it too. It’s so good! Highly recommend if you know a baby… lol. 

Wednesday 4.5 
Last day babysitting this week. My niece is the cutest. She has such a sweet little smile… and she cries a lot, but for the most part she's a really happy baby. Definitely a cutie. She thinks anything with the word B is funny… it’s just funny to find something a baby finds funny! It’s just super cute. 

Thursday 4.6 
Today I worked on my instagram mostly… didn’t do a whole lot. I went to AC Moore… I wanted to get into planners… but 1) AC Moore doesn’t really have the planner selection of other craft stores… I don’t think AC Moore is as large of a chain as Michael’s or something… but I didn’t get anything… I don’t think I’ll be doing a crafty planner because craft stores are kind of terrible. Lol. Maybe I’ll do a blog about that because… people LOVE coupons and don’t seem to care if they hold up a line. 

Friday 4.7 
Didn’t do a whole lot today either… went out for dinner. I discovered my love for reviewing the Chobani Flips… I take pictures of the lids and post them on Instagram… they’re so good, and just fun to talk about. I think I’ll have a “Chobani Flips: Ranked” Post! 

Alright… I think that is everything! Hope you guys like this! 

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...

Blogmas Day 12: The 12 Days of Christmas Gift Guide

So I thought it would be fun to do a gift guide that every gift corresponds with the price. So like for the first day of Christmas $1 gift that would be good and then up from there. These would be good stocking stutterers and things I just think are unique. $1- Solar Powered Dancers!  My mom loves getting the little dancing solar powered people. We get most of ours from Dollar tree... other dollar stores have them too, they're super cute and fun for $1. Its good to put near any plants that you have that way you know they're getting sunlight. It's a good gift. $2- Mini Coloring Book!  At 5 Below they had some mini travel sized coloring books for $2. I thought these were pretty cool. I got the Botanical one I believe. Really cute and fun! I would recommend! $3-   Ceramic Truck w/ Christmas Tree  I saw this at the Target Dollar Spot and I thought it was cute and would probably make a great gift. If you know someone who has a truck or likes the sort of "rustic C...

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...
