Blogmas Day 8: Christmas Movie Bucket List

Since I already did the Christmas Bucket List... here's a list of Christmas Movies I want to make sure I watch this year!

1) Merry Christmas Charlie Brown- 

 This is always what I like to see first at Christmas time. It just gets me in the holiday spirit and I just like the message of the Peanuts Gang learning what Christmas is all about. It also shows Charlie brown getting kind of sad when everyone else is happy for Christmas because Charlie Brown wants something more than just decorations and presents. It's super cute and one I always have to watch. I did kind of watch it already... but I need to watch it again for sure. I was setting up my new phone at the same time.

2) How The Grinch Stole Christmas- Cartoon Version 

 I really love this one. I did see most of this movie recently... but again- I was also on the phone and stuff... I just got the DVD recently and I'm excited to watch it again and again now instead of just when it's on TV. I also bought the Jim Carey version of the movie... but I don't think that's going to be a priority movie for me this year... I'll try to watch it... but there's a lot I'd like to see.

3) Muppet Christmas Carol 
I love this movie. It is my favorite Christmas Carol... I know I have the DVD somewhere... but I just repurchased it because I can't go without seeing it this year. I like the movie too much!

4) Mickey's Christmas Carol 
I did just watch the Duck Tales Christmas Special... so I thought this would be a fun one to watch sometime soon. I like watching this with the Snowed In At The House of Mouse Special. It's cute. I love it.

5) Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer- 
Usually I try to watch this one early on too... but I haven't watched it just yet. I have it recorded though and I'm excited to watch it.

Some Honorable Mentions: I need to watch The Santa Clause 3 all the way through. I watched The Santa Clause last year and I love The Santa Clause 2... so this year it'll be Santa Clause 3's year... and I actually like it because I like Martin Short more than I used to and it's got a good message if you're a little tired of the "Buy this buy that" of the holidays.

I also want to watch some of my favorite rom coms that I used to watch every year... but idk if I've seen them in a while. The Holiday and Love Actually are the 2 I'm going to watch sometime this season. Maybe tomorrow.

Also sorry... today is December 10th and this is Blogmas Day 8... I was in New York on Friday and I've been sort of in recovery during the weekend... but also working which is hard this time of year. I'm going to try to be more on my game the rest of the month. Maybe I'll do a little more today and tomorrow.

Bye!

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...

Throwback Thursday: Crazy Ex Girlfriend Season 1

One of my favorite shows is the very underrated Crazy Ex Girlfriend... and when I say underrated I mean the ratings are bad... I'm pretty sure there is a lot of critical hype that is very real and worthy of that sort of hype... I honestly didn't watch it live at all this year until the finale... it was all in my DVR... I had lost a little bit of interest to be honest after the first episode... but I bingewatched it all in one day pretty much and it was great... but that's season 2... let's go back to Season 1. If you're only familiar with Season 2... Season 1 isn't quite as dark. It's definitely more silly than Season 2. It isn't like the darkness and the drama isn't there, it just isn't quite as dark. I have a feeling the show is getting progressively darker, and the Season 2 finale was definitely the darkest so far. The show is meant to be a different spin on a Rom-Com. The girl moves across the country for a guy that has a girlfriend alrea...
