Blogmas Day 7: Scribbles About TV: Festive Favorites!

So I thought that I would just talk a little bit about some of the TV shows that have been on and some of the specials for the holidays.

First off the Disney Fairy Tale Weddings Holiday Magic special... this was really sweet. I like that they didn't show as many couples this time... they focused on 2 couples... I thought that felt a little more special. The one couple was one that we saw Propose on the last Disney Fairy Tale Weddings special that they had... and their wedding was really beautiful and the wife surprised her new husband by hiring a choir to remind him of his Mom- who passed away and used to sing in a choir... it was really sweet. The other wedding... wasn't really my thing- but it's still beautiful to that couple and it was really sweet and special. I got emotional at both stories... it was a cute special. I'm excited for the Decorating Disney special as well!

On ABC they have 2 shows around the holidays that are always fun to watch: The Great Holiday Baking Show and the Great Christmas Light Fight... I haven't been watching The Great Holiday Baking Show as closely as I have in years past because they changed hosts... and I'm a HUGE fan of Nia Vardalos and Ian Gomez- so obviously I preferred their hosting. I don't know who the new hosts are- I haven't watched it enough to say either way... but I prefer Cousin Nia (we're both Greek.) So that's something new that I'm trying to get used to.

The Great Christmas Light Fight... I usually half watch. I hear the stories- I look up to see the light... don't always get the full story... but that's been pretty good. I like seeing these houses and looking up to see if there is anything like that around my neighborhood.

I liked all the holiday episodes of TV that aired this week. I really liked The Middle's last Christmas Episode. Modern Family didn't do a Christmas Episode this year- but it was still pretty good. I didn't see all of The Goldbergs or Speechless but those were good tonight. I liked The Mayor and Blackish also... American Housewife was good. Fresh Off the boat was funny and cute... I just liked all of the shows and I recommend checking it out!

So... that's everything! Hope you guys like this!
Byeee!

Scribbles about TV: Jane The Virgin Review!

This I think is a surprise hit, so of corse I needed to watch it for myself to see! It's been getting a lot of critical buzz because it has been reviewed as "one of the best pilots of the season" and I also have been hearing a few critics saying that they don't think it will last because the word "virgin" is in the title... which is stupid. There is nothing wrong with being a virgin and if a show is good, its good and people should watch it... plus this did bring pretty high ratings for The CW so the critics that said that can suck it! Lol. Overall I really liked this show. One thing thats been bothering me a lot about the new Fall shows is that the characters aren't interesting enough. Especially the female characters. I thought that this showed a lot of really strong female characters that were interesting. This had a pretty big cast with A LOT of stuff going on for a pilot and most of the characters were female. That is a powerful thing to see on TV...

Top 10 Dating Tips/ Suggestions

So I've been in a relationship for about 2 and a half years... but before that I was single... for a very long time. And I was on dating apps for about a year or so before that... so here's what I learned from those apps. If you want more specific relationship advice I have from being in a relationship... that one might be a little harder but I guess I could do a blog on that too? Idk... I'm not an expert but I think I have some good tips.  Find an App That Works For You  I feel like not all apps work for everyone. I started on Bumble- and I like the app. I love the idea of girls taking the first move- but... I HATE making the first move apparently. So I would just match with a bunch of guys... and never really knew what to talk about. Plus I like having A LOT of info in my bio and Bumble just doesn't give enough space for me. I only went out with 1 guy from Bumble I think and it was bad.  So after that I tried Coffee Meets Bagel... which is terrible. Maybe depending on...

Some Pretty Funny Mini Stories That Happened Recently

Okay... so I feel like I have a few stories to tell... a lot of random funny things have happened this past week or so and I just feel like telling them... so yeah. Hope these are interesting. The Penny Pincher  This actually happened a while ago. And some backstory: My mom and I babysit my niece on weekdays and my niece is a toddler- who is pretty easygoing- and I don't really mind watching her on my own...but somedays it gets a little long and it's nice to have 2 people there. Anyway she had to go to the grocery store to get a tomato sauce... and we like a particular kind of tomato sauce... some woman actually took that tomato sauce out of her cart and put the generic version in her cart because "this woman knows tomato sauce and this stuff is the same." It really wasn't the same at all... the type I think had diced tomatoes and that isn't what we needed for the recipe or something like that. The tomatoes were different and it wouldn't have worked wi...
