Blogmas Day 9: Things I thought as a kid- CHRISTMAS EDITION!

So I thought for today's post it might be kind of fun to talk about some things that I thought when I was a kid that I realize as an adult aren't exactly how I thought. Now I know what you're all thinking- am I talking about Santa? No- Santa is totally real and I know he's probably too busy to read this blog this time of year... and it's not that popular of a blog... plus I think The North Pole has Wifi- but I'm not 100% sure... but either way Merry Christmas Santa!

Anyway... on to the thoughts!

1) The Song "Little St. Nick" was about a Small Santa 

So I don't know if anyone remembers the "Now That's What I Call Christmas" Cd and the commercials for it... but they did show a cartoon of what looked to be a little St. Nick. So I thought maybe he was for Little Christmas or he delivered gifts before christmas or something.

I like the song a lot... but it does seem like a fun idea for a little St. Nick to deliver presents before Santa visits.

Honestly... this is a little silly- but that's the only thing I can really think of! I know there's probably more that I thought when I was a kid that was Christmas related... like lines in certain movies or something like that that I got off and I never noticed it... but this is the only "oh that's kinda cute" story I could think of.

I thought of this from one of the newer Charlie Brown Christmas movies that they played after the classic one recently... Sally thinks Santa Clause is Samantha Clause... and I just thought that was a cute little thing that is something a kid probably does think. And that's cute.

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...

Blogmas Day 12: The 12 Days of Christmas Gift Guide

So I thought it would be fun to do a gift guide that every gift corresponds with the price. So like for the first day of Christmas $1 gift that would be good and then up from there. These would be good stocking stutterers and things I just think are unique. $1- Solar Powered Dancers!  My mom loves getting the little dancing solar powered people. We get most of ours from Dollar tree... other dollar stores have them too, they're super cute and fun for $1. Its good to put near any plants that you have that way you know they're getting sunlight. It's a good gift. $2- Mini Coloring Book!  At 5 Below they had some mini travel sized coloring books for $2. I thought these were pretty cool. I got the Botanical one I believe. Really cute and fun! I would recommend! $3-   Ceramic Truck w/ Christmas Tree  I saw this at the Target Dollar Spot and I thought it was cute and would probably make a great gift. If you know someone who has a truck or likes the sort of "rustic C...

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...
