Some Throwback Favorites+ Why I might not be posting a lot next week!

Sooooo... here are some of my current throwback favorites... I'll explain why I may or may not be MIA this week at the end of the post... but yeah.

First and foremost- what I'm snacking on right now: Polly O String Cheese. These are great. Costco had a big bag for $7 and my mom picked them up and they are amazing. I just found out there are people that just bite them instead of pulling the string cheese... that's wrong. I'm sorry- if you do that we can still be friends... but that's just wrong. Lol. Just kidding! but... it's wrong.

Secondly Jack's Mannequin Everything in Transit... Loveee this cd. I just listened to it in full last night... it still gets me. It's one of my absolute favorites. I just kind of heard this band at Bamboozle and thought they sounded pretty good... so I bought this CD and it's one of my favorites! Glad I check out bands on a whim sometimes!

And Lady Gaga... Mostly I've been listening to The Fame and The Fame Monster... great cds. I haven't done a Throwback on The Fame Monster yet... but I did with The Fame. The Fame Monster is great though- it has Telephone... which is one of my absolute favorites!

I have 2 TV Favorites also. First off The Drew Carey Show... this show is kind of stupid but I kind of love it. The episodes with Kate especially are my favorite... I just love that actress. She's so funny and she's in a lot of shows I don't love... but I love her in them. Scrubs isn't my favorite, Cougartown not my favorite... but she's someone I'll watch in a lot of different shows. She's so sarcastic and great.

And my second is Will and Grace... I cannot stress enough how much I wanted to be Karen when I was little... and I feel like I'm so close to actually being Karen... I just need a rich husband... lol. I'm pretty proud of myself. I haven't done an official Throwback Thursday on this yet because I want to watch the whole series through from the beginning... and that is extremely difficult to do because you can't really get it on DVD anymore. I know my sister has the first season... I'm sure they'll release them on Blu Ray or re-release it in some sort of cheaper set (compared to what box sets used to cost) because I really want to own it... this is another show I'll never really get tired of...and I'm thinking with the new series it will be more readily available somehow. I know people love Gilmore Girls and were so excited for that to be on Netflix... this is all I want. But I want it on DVD... so make that happen please!

I think that's everything I have to mention here... so now onto why I won't be blogging a lot next week most likely.

I kind of like these blogs to be a little more spontaneous- I'm not opposed to pre-writing if I have something good to post... but it isn't my favorite thing to do. I'm also trying to figure out what time I want to schedule posts... I'm not sure the 2am posts are really working for me... I might do in the morning at some point... I'm not really sure.

I also am seeing Lady Gaga Monday and Tuesday I will kind of be recovering from that... The rest of the week I'll probably be going back into my actual bedroom because my furniture will be back in there... so that I'm going to try to do quickly... but I'm not quite sure how that will go... once I get into my new room- I hope to be a little more creative and write a little bit more... I have a really nice desk now... and it's just going to be a good little area for me to chill and have some fun... so that should be good.

So that's why I may or may not be back next week.

Bye!

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...
