Weekly Wrap Up 4.23.17

Favorites 

Life in Pieces- They just put the first season of this show on Netflix! I’m excited! If you’ve been following this blog for a while, I didn’t like the show when I first saw it… so I didn’t watch most of the first season. After that it became one of my favorite shows that I watch over and over again… so I’m super happy to watch it from the beginning now! 

Bullet Journal- Trying to get my life together… so I made a more fancy planner… and I’ll probably share more about it when I do it more often. It’s fun and a fun way to plan and get things together. 


News And World Events 

I know a lot of stuff happened this week… all I’ve heard about is Aaron Hernandez… and that pisses me off. So… yeah. 

Here’s some funny news… a radio shack just closed… a lot are closing right now… but this one in Reynoldsberg Ohio is making news for telling off it’s customers in a Facebook post… and it’s kind of hilarious. I would not recommend doing that at all… but it was funny. I’ll have a link in the clickables… strong language warning though. 

I didn’t post last week… so I never got to talk about the Star Wars Trailer… that was pretty awesome! 

Noteworthy Snacks 
I haven’t tried the Unicorn Frap yet… but I feel like that needs to be mentioned here. If I tried it before it goes away… there will be a Scribbles About Food on this I’m sure! 

Music 
It was a Sh*t Show from Crazy Ex Girlfriend… its been stuck in my head all week! 


Quotes 

“And when you speak, my knees get weak
I can’t believe what I’m sacrificing
But let’s get real, we know the deal
So darling let’s not tip-toe
This thing we had was not just bad, it was a sh*t show” - Crazy Ex Girlfriend 

Thoughts 
I was going to mention this in Scribbles… I don’t think I did- but there was this episode of So Weird that basically is responsible for my indecisiveness. So Weird was Disney Channel’s (sub par) response to Are You Afraid of The Dark. They had an episode about parallel universes and in the show the main character chooses what juice she wants to drink in the morning… and that effects the rest of her life…not just her day. In one timeline she spills the juice… and any time I spill something I think “Ohhh wow… maybe that wouldn’t have happened if I had gotten something different.” and it’s just funny to think of. After re-watching it I realized… it wasn’t that good lol. It’s funny how scary something is when your a kid and then as an adult it’s like “well that was lame.” But that’s kind of what happened.

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...
