Scribbles About Food: Pop's Garage

So this is a long overdue post! I went to Pops garage a couple of times... once I had Quesadillas and they were delicious... this time I got a Chimichanga and it was Cinco de Mayo (actually Cinco de Quatro, but you know I'm secretly Lucielle Bluth so it's all the same. Lol.) so of corse I got a Margarita! Let's get right into it!

I'm going to start off with the Chips and Guac. I don't have a picture of these... but it was really good. It wasn't too spicy, it was flavorful and fresh and it just tasted really yummy. They didn't give a ton and there weren't too many chips with it either... but it was still enough to share. I was in a group with 5 girls and we were all getting big dinners too... so we were hungry, but we needed room for dinner and our desserts... so yeah. It was plenty lol. The chips were good too... they were thick and not too salty.

Next up: My Margarita!!! I got the Island Margarita because it sounded coconutty and that's what I wanted in my life that night! And it was coconutty and it was blue and sweet and just delicious! I got it with salt because I can't tell if I like Margarita Salt or not tbh... lol. I feel like it's weird to taste salt when you're drinking and get a lot of salt... but it's a little too sweet without the salt- so I guess I like it... idk. I just like drinking and this was delicious!
It was even more delicious than it looks. 

And the Chimichanga... this was amazing! It's basically a fried burrito. I got the Chicken one- it comes with Olives but I got it without and it came without! When a place is super busy if it has olives I might avoid ordering it just because I feel like they'll still put olives on it... and I hate olives... but it wasn't busy and there were no olives!!!! It was delicious and flavorful and cheesy and really really delicious. I never knew Chimichangas were fried burritos... it's really yummy!
Hey now, hey now... this is what dreams are made of. 

And that's just all I had. I had dessert at an Ice cream place nearby... their dessert menu was a little lacking. They have Churros and Choco Tacos... which I like but they were kind of expensive and it didn't seem like it was really worth it... wasn't anything different. So we went for ice cream instead! Anyway... that's it. I don't remember the Ice Cream too well... so I'll review that place another day... but let me know if you've tried this place. I give it a thumbs up, I'd go back... its amazing!

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...

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...
