Ahhh I didn't do day 12 of Blogmas!

I'm sorry about that! I think I'm going to change my blog a little bit and make it a little more scribbles about life-y and actually make time to write about my life... sometime during the day. I think Monday's will still be more of a "Story Time" thing for the most part... I still want to do Chart Chats and reviews...I may do some reviews on my youtube channel... but that can be kind of difficult because in my Star Wars video people were spamming my comments and I didn't like that... so yeah.

Anyway I thought I would still talk a little bit about my Christmas. It was really good, it was my first Christmas like this... As far as I can remember- I've always stayed at my house for Christmas- this year we went to my sister's house... which was really nice. I got to see my niece who was a little sick, but she still had fun playing and opening up some presents.

The dinner was delicious... we had turkey and I actually tried brussel sprouts and they were actually good. I don't know if my sister made them or if my brother in law did them... but he cooked them in bacon and it tasted amazing.

Today I was at the mall... I got a new comforter... It doesn't match my room as well... but I'm limited in options for a twin sized bed... and it was cute and warmer than what I have on now... the next few days are supposed to be freezing cold.

I looked at Sephora Inside JcPenny... I wish my mall had a regular Sephora in it. The selection just isn't that great and I don't really like to order online from Sephora because sometimes more fragile things break... so that just kind of stinks... but yeah. It's hard to find things in store anyway.

I filmed and edited a lip swatch video for youtube too... which is exciting. And my next video will be reviewing an eyeshadow palette... which is also pretty exciting.

Soooo yeah! Hope you guys like this post and I'll see you later!

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...
