Throwback Thursday: Friends Season 1 (June 2017)

I feel like this is something I'll end up re-reviewing in a Throwback Thursday... more than once... just because I watch Friends all the time... and it just makes me happy so I think if I can watch one episode of Friends a day at least... I'll be a little more chill and happy overall... so I'll have 10 of these... and I might do them again in a year or so... we'll see.

Anyway Season 1 is a pretty solid season for the first season of something. There were some dud episodes that I haven't watched as many times as something like "The One Where Chandler Takes a Bath" ... which is my second favorite episode... but it's in my favorite season... so I've watched it quite a bit. It's a good episode!

Anyway I think my favorite episodes are towards the end of the season... which I never really noticed before... but I really love The One With The Poker... this is kind of a classic episode that I think is underrated because it's so early! The One Where The Monkey Gets Away, The One With The Evil Orthodontist, The One With The Fake Monica and The One Where Rachel Finds Out are all really funny and just good episodes overall.

I also love The One With The Blackout, The One With The Boobies, The One With George Stephanopolis, The One With The Butt, The One Where Underdog Gets Away and The One With The Monkey. These are all pretty great and again... I feel like a lot of these are underrated because they're just so early!

I feel like I maybe relate to this season a little bit better than I have in the past because I'm about the same age as they are here now... which is weird. I've never watched Friends and been about the same age as them... so that's pretty new. I identify a lot with Rachel right now... because it just seems like everyone else sort of has everything together and Rachel doesn't really have a plan anymore... it's just very relatable to me right now lol.

So yeah... the episodes might not be the most memorable ever... but they are all really great and definitely underrated. I think as a whole I do kind of like Season 1 more than Seasons 2 and 3... Season 2 and 3 episodes seem to be what I always see whenever I turn on reruns on tv... and they have some kind of meh episodes... and the show just got a lot better when Monica and Chandler got together... it just makes more sense that way.

That is everything! Hope you guys liked this! I'm already on Disk 2 of Season 2... so that will be coming soon also!

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...

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...
