A Weekend In The Life: My Mom's Birthday+ Father's Day Weekend

So I had a particularly fun weekend and I thought that I would share a little bit about it! I'm writing this on June 18th and my family just celebrated My Mom's Birthday and Father's Day... so I'll explain what happened.

Friday Night: Mom's Bday Party 

This was fun. We went out to a restaurant we frequent at least once a week and we had some of our friends and our family with us. It was a lot of fun. My sister and her husband were there with their baby- and she's just a ton of fun and my best buddy.... so we ate at the restaurant and then we came home for cake and she was just having fun and walking all around. We watched some Sesame Street... it was all really good!

I had really good tortellini and then the dessert was my mom's favorite chocolate coconut cake.

Saturday: A Day Inside With Guests 

Saturday was a little more of a lazy day. We didn't really intend for it to be a lazy day... but we were waiting for my sister to come over for the day and then we didn't really do anything. But we had some fun. We watched some things on TBS... it started out with the movie Keanu with Key and Peele... which my mom and I love and I think my grandmother liked it too. Then we watched my new favorite show: The Joker's Wild with Snoop Dog. I just kind of left it on because it was in between Keanu and Friends, which was on next... but I did such a good job guessing the answers... I need to go on this show! I would probably win a lot of money. Lol.

So yeah then we watched Friends and my sister came over so we watched some Sesame Street and a little bit of Seinfeld... and I feel like I always need to explain Seinfeld episodes to people because they're new to me even though its been on forever... and they're all really funny. In this one Jerry gets a new car and he goes to a valet and the valet has really bad BO... and then that makes the car stink. And then he and Elaine end up stinking too... and it just gets on whatever or whoever is nearby like its an entity. It is really funny!

And then we had Chinese food which we brought in from our favorite restaurant and that was great. So overall... it was a fun day and I'm happy we watched The Joker's Wild because I love that show!

Sunday: Father's Day 

On Father's Day we went out to one of my dad's favorite restaurants- Bahrs... they were busy and they had a somewhat limited menu but it wasn't that limited. It was good though anyway. If a dad got a lobster he could get a free hat... which is great. My parents and I all got the Soft Shell Crab and idk what my grandmother got... but the crab was delicious.

And then we went to Nicholas Creamery for Ice Cream which was really great. I had the mint chocolate chip... it was really really minty! Definitely different than any mint chocolate chip i've ever had before!

And then I went home, took a nap, and then I had to transfer my t shirts that I had in one thing of plastic drawers to another because the one I had was breaking... so that was kind of hard but I'm glad I got it done... because after that I just watched Spider Man: Homecoming and then some of season 2 of Search Party.

All in all fun weekend even though I didn't do too much... I also did a lot.

I'll probably have another one of these really soon because I'm having an exciting weekend this weekend too!

Bye!

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...

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...

September 2015: It List

Now that I do weekly favorites, I feel like these will be less surprising... but still. Some good things. 1) Pumpkin Spice Lattes- Its the most wonderful latte of the year! Lol. All the yes. Soooo much yes. Its so creamy and pumpkiny and delicious. It was what has been missing from my life for a long time and now its back and I think they get more and more delicious every year. And I know last year people were like "pumpkin spice isn't cool anymore." Have you had any? It is delicious!!!! I'm a big fan of the PSL. 2) Arrow- I've been wanting to watch this show for a while. The guy that plays Oliver is not only hot, but he was really funny and good on a talk show I saw him on... so that made me like "ohh I need to watch this." I'm also not super into comic books or anything, but I do like Batman and DC movies at least more than anything else and I didn't really realize that there were so many tv shows in the DC universe right now. There are a f...
