Relaunching a Blog, Creating a Facebook Page, Trying to do Better!

Okay... so if you guys don't know... this was pretty much always a daily blog... but I kind of re-branded it in July and I wanted to come back with 70 posts ready to go for the next few months... and I was just feeling super inspired by everything and I wrote EVERYTHING for the most part... and I just liked doing that and I sort of went with it... came up with some ideas and stuff and then I just kind of kept going with it...

So as of right now- I JUST relaunched the blog. I'm writing this on July 2nd- so my first blog back was A Little Bit About Me and right now it's done pretty well. I shared it on my personal facebook... which is what I want to keep doing with these posts... but I also created an actual Facebook page for myself.... so you can go and "Like" Shannon Kahermanes and see all of my posts there...

Thus far: No one Likes Me! Actually I like myself... but that doesn't count right? Doing the facebook page was easy... but it was also a little tricky.

First off... I needed a profile picture. The picture I'm using for my actual profile picture right now is pretty adorable... so I used that.

It's a mirror pic in a fancy bathroom... and hopefully in the page it's cropped so it doesn't look too "Bathroom" y... It's a cute dress I like how I'm posed and my smile is fun... so yeah.

Now for my fan page- I was stuck between 2 different things... and I ended up doing a third thing entirely.

This is me in a bathtub... I feel like this is on brand for me in general...  yes I'm fancy but I'm also fun and kind of a hot mess... so I like this... but it didn't necessarily fit what this blog is about... hopefully. Lol. I feel like this blog at least gives the impression that I kind of have it together... so maybe this picture doesn't totally fit the vibe of this.

Anyway- my next option... which I was really excited about... I thought "ohhh I know! I'll just take a picture of some of my favorite things that will be featured on both of my blogs and my youtube channel... and I'll use that as the profile pic!

So that was this picture... I was pretty proud of it! Some of my first posts going back were about Arrested Development, I had one about the David Bowie Brooklyn Museum (where I got the tote bag)  also and then the Marvel movies for Marvel Monday... I have a post about Star Wars coming soon... I thought the books coming out of the tote was a good idea too... Plus some of my favorite things in general and my favorite makeup products... but then it didn't fit everything in the photo and it just didn't look right with stuff cropped out.

So then I just saw a picture of my desk on my phone... I figured that would work well enough for now... and it's cute.

It's pretty and cute and simple! I like it!

So yeah... I didn't really want to invite my friends to like my page... I just shared the page so that people could like on their own... but I think I'm going to have to invite them to it... so that's bad. Not bad... but just kind of like "Ohh... not what I thought!" So... yeah!

Also did I get 70 blogs done in that time? No. I got a little less than 60. But I was still proud of everything that I wrote and I'm excited about what's to come. I think having a bigger social media presence will be good... especially when I try to re-launch my other blog and youtube channel also... so yeah!

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...
