Scribbles About Food: TGI Fridays Bon Bons in Mexican Hot Chocolate

I feel a little mixed about this... These are good... and like yes I'd eat them again... but there's a lot wrong with them.
They could have definitely made these... more appetizing looking than this. Lol. 

This is it when you bite in. 

First off... they're really tiny and they don't look appetizing at all... lol. They say that 2 is one serving and one is 180 calories... I don't understand what counts as 2 because they're all different sizes... so that didn't make sense to me and I had 3 or 4 maybe? idk.

Also the packaging of this is weird... It says tear here on it... but that's not easy to tear... and it's just sort of in this plastic bag... which just seems weird... idk. I'm not sure what the reasoning behind this was. It's hard to keep in the fridge like that. There's no resealable aspect or anything... it's just the worst packaging and I think TGIFridays could improve a lot on their packaging for all their items... but this one doesn't make sense to me at all.

Anyway the actual flavor is good. It isn't too spicy... but the kick is there and it kind of brings out the chocolate nicely... it just tasted good that way... but I don't feel like I'm satisfied with my dessert choice of the night... I might still eat ice cream because... this was just a little too tiny and not my favorite thing... lol.

So overall... idk packaging fails... but the product wins overall... and I would probably try a different flavor too.

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...

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...
