Weekly Wrap Up 5.14.17


Favorites 

Girlboss- What a great show on Neflix right? It was just well done… well paced… sort of a show about nothing but the plot of it was also really good… I was kind of surprised… I didn’t love it at first but then I got really into it. It’s pretty good! I would recommend it! 

Stop and Shop Guacamole- OMG! This Guacamole is awesome!!! It just tastes sooo sooo good! My mom tasted it in store and no one else was eating it… but she got it and thought it was delicious. It’s a little spicy but it just tastes really flavorful and good. Must have for any party this summer… except idk if my family likes Guac all that much. 

Frappuccinos- Frappy Hour was this week… and I enjoyed every bit of it! Didn’t get to Starbucks in time every day it went on… but man! When I did it was amazing! The S’mores frap is my favorite and the Midnight Mint Mocha is my favorite after that I think. Great stuff! 

Easy (netflix)- Kind of a weird hidden gem of Netflix. It’s a show mostly about sex and relationships. It was suggested to me after watching Girlboss and I was bored so I kind of watched it. It is an anthology series, so each episode follows a different story with a different couple… and a lot of them are kind of… not that relatable for me tbh… but a lot of the episodes were really good. The second episode is about a young lesbian couple that just gets together and the one girl is vegan and an activist and the other girl tries to get more into that stuff… but she just can’t… and in the end the activist girl accepts her and it’s really cute. Orlando Bloom was on an episode, Marc Maron was on an episode… there were a lot of people that you would recognize. I’ll probably do a review on this… it isn’t my favorite thing I’ve ever watched… but I did finish it and it is on Netflix and a lot of the episodes are worth watching. 

It was also definitely made to promote Chicago tourism… because it just felt like a promo for Chicago… so keep that in mind. Lol. 


News And World Events 
American Idol is coming back to television… this time it’ll be on ABC and the host will still be what’s his name… Ryan Seacrest lol. And it looks like Katy Perry is in the talks to be a judge… I’m not a fan of reality shows… I am a fan of Katy Perry though… so that might be something I’ll watch. 

Jim Parsons from the Big Bang Theory got married this weekend to Todd Spiewak… who looks a lot like Jim Parsons tbh… lol. Congrats to the two! Jim Parson’s has a maltese so he is clearly a genius in real life too and deserves all the happiness in the world! 

Sean Spicer hid in the bushes... this is a legit thing that happened. 


Noteworthy Snacks 
Stop and Shop Guacamole… omg this is amazing! 

The Cookie Straws with the S’mores fraps at starbucks… so good! 

Music 
A Million Reasons by Lady Gaga and the album Vices and Virtues by Panic at The Disco! Love the Lady Gaga song and I just listened to the Panic album before… and these are just great. Can’t pick one… so I’ll pick both! Lol. 


Quotes 
Last week I picked a quote from Up… this week I’m just going to show this picture from Up because I think it is one of the most beautiful moments in any animated movie ever 


Thoughts 
I posted my thoughts yesterday… but it’s always fun to watch something you never heard about on Netflix or listen to an old CD that you used to like!

Brittani Louise Taylor's Latest Video - Idk... I've been watching her videos a lot lately... so I wanted to show some love! 

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...
