Hump Day Update: Weekly Favorites- Food, TV, Snacks and More! 9.27.17

What I'm Watching 

Netflix: 

I started watching Lady Gaga's new documentary Five Foot Two... I haven't finished it yet as of the time writing this... I started watching it at like 2 in the morning and I just haven't been able to finish since I wrote it. It's not a bad documentary- I actually think it's super interesting and I look forward to watching more of it... I just haven't been able to yet. They did it kind of like Grey Gardens.

I would also love to finish watching AHS Freakshow this week... it's almost off of Netflix... I want to do a Throwback Thursday on it tomorrow... so far I've only watched the first episode... so ugh... but I like this season... if I don't end up catching it all on Netflix I'll probably end up buying it and reviewing it eventually.

Regular TV 

I did watch all of the Monday Night shows on CBS... they had some great comedies. The Big Bang Theory was pretty good this week... I liked Young Sheldon a lot. I liked Me, Myself and I a lot more... I think these 2 new shows were the highlight of this comedy night. I did not like Kevin Can Wait- I think that since Erin Hayes was fired... it just isn't as good. I have a review of Young Sheldon up now... just posted it yesterday and I'll have a review of Me, Myself and I next week! If I had to recommend just one though- Me, Myself and I. I really liked it!

I also watched The Good Doctor... which I thought was good- I just don't find myself paying much attention to the "medical" part of medical shows... and this was pretty much all medical talk... so it wasn't my thing but Freddie Highmore is great in it and it really is an interesting show. Very well done in my opinion... I know they just had a special on real doctors that had Autism... I'm a little more interested in that now that I've seen the show.

I watched the premiere of This is Us... that was really great. It's been so long since the finale- but it felt like no time had passed... which is kind of awesome.

And American Horror Story Cult... this week was scary but there were a lot of pretty funny moments too... I liked that they showed the gym because the gym is almost a cult itself. Lol. I'll have a recap of that on Monday or Tuesday!

News 

Kit Harrington aka John Snow is engaged to his costar Rosie Leslie. The two played a dysfunctional couple... I guess you could say on Game of Thrones... so cute?

In other couple news, Phillipa Soo got married over the weekend to another broadway star and Idina Menzel married a broadway star also over the weekend... again... not sure who it is- he's also known for some Disney movies including the singing voice of Max in A Goofy Movie... so yeah. That's pretty cool.

Pit Bull sent a private jet to Puerto Rico to transfer cancer patients so that they can continue treatments. That's pretty awesome!

Food 

I just ate some pretty delicious Mac and Cheese.

I tried the Maple Pecan Latte from Starbucks... I'll have a review on that pretty soon- but it was really good!

I had some Pepperidge Farm Thin and Crispy chocolate chip cookies... those are pretty delicious.

Favorites 

I got some new clothes from Old Navy that I've been liking a lot! I've only worn a couple... they have longer shirts and dresses that I like to wear with leggings. They're comfy and cute.

The Iphone 8 is another new favorite! I just got it this week... the camera is pretty amazing! I'm really impressed with it! I would recommend getting it if you're wanting a new phone or if you're thinking about it.

My painting from Pinot's palette! If you haven't seen it yet, I posted it on my Weekly Wrap Up post... I love how it turned out. It's super pretty and fun and fall-ish.

Other Stuff 

Snapchat filters don't recognize glasses because the technology for the filters was originally used for pilots. This isn't true... but if you say it interestingly enough- people will believe you... so I did that a few times this week.

Anddd that's it!

Hope you guys like this!

Byeee!

Scribbles About TV: Jane The Virgin Finale Review (SPOILERS)

So.... Can we talk about all the twists because there were a lot! I didn't even see all of them coming! Alrighty we start out in typical Jane The Virgin Mode with Jane's choice between Raphael and Michael... I'd be okay with either but I think I'm team Michael. Jane has a weird moment with Raphael and thinks she's better off without him and just having him be the father of her child. She's also starting to have some feelings for Michael again. Then she almost has the baby on the bus and some woman helps her and gets the bus driver to take her to the hospital. Rogellio and Xo are in Vegas and they get drunk and can't remember what happens, but they make it just in time to see Jane deliver a baby boy. I knew it would be a boy! Lets pause on that a little and go to Michael and his ex partner/friend with benefits who comes back says she has a lead on Sin Rostro, gives him an address where the plastic surgeon is and by the time Michael gets there, he's de

Disney Store Closing Haul

So if you read my post from yesterday- you know that I love The Disney Store, but it is unfortunately closing. I did pick up some things from the store that I thought I'd share with you guys! I did get a couple of t shirts. One is a Star Wars shirt, which is technically a men's shirt but I thought it looked really cool and I don't like that Disney doesn't carry the same things for men and for women. For the most part they look unisex to me and a lot of their men's stuff has characters I like better. Like the star wars shirt for women was grey with pink lettering and had no pictures, but the mens shirt had a really cool metallic silver logo on black clothing with pictures of all the new characters and Luke inside of the letters... much cooler! So I got that! The other shirt I got is really funny and it has Sleeping Beauty on it and it says "I Woke Up Like This." Which I really liked! Super cute and funny and my niece likes it when I wear shirts with c

Scribbles About Life: 3.10.16

Soooo... I don't really want to post about my day... but I don't really want to post anything else either. I started writing something about female characters in movies and TV... but I just didn't like what I was writing and... idk... I was a blog writing machine this week and now I feel defeated. I wrote a ton on Monday and Tuesday and now I just don't feel like doing a post today... but I want to write still... So I'll talk about things that I guess are on my mind lately... Idk. So I got this Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor... and for some reason... I'm addicted to the way that it smells. Idk why, it smells like cherry medicine... but I also sort of like it. Its more cherry than medicine... and I can't smell it on my lips... but Idk. I keep smelling it in the tube. I got some cute stuff from American Eagle yesterday too! I got a dress and a romper... I do not own any Rompers... except this one... but it looked good on me and it didn't make me look f
