What Did I Do In January?

So- I thought a monthly wrap up type of post might be fun... I didn't do everything I thought I'd do this month... I don't think I accomplished everything I wanted to... but still! I think I did a lot of fun stuff... and it's going to be good.

So first off- I wanted to post daily in January... didn't do that. I missed the 12th, 14th, 15th, 21st,22nd,25th, and 26th... so I feel like I owe you guys a week of double posts... but I did have some excuses. 1) I have been super tired after work. I was opening a lot this month- which I do really like... but it makes me tired at the end of the night most of the time... and I don't really get to do anything else. Also- I get 2 days off a week... and usually when I get days off I spend them away from the computer. So... there's that too.

I don't think I actually saw any movies in theaters in January... there was nothing really that good out. The last thing I saw was Mary Poppins Returns and that was on New Year's Eve. I did see some movies on Blu Ray... one was Free Style starring Corbin Bleu... which my boyfriend bought for me for Christmas knowing it would be a terrible, terrible movie that we could enjoy together... and we didn't lol. It was a TERRIBLE movie. We also watched the movie Family Man with Nicholas Cage... which I reviewed right here- but it was cute... and better than I thought it'd be. We also just watched The Lego Ninjago movie- which was allright and Sorry To Bother You... which was incredible and I need to watch it again. Ohhhh and we watched Tangled- which was also really fun. It is my favorite Disney Movie and he really liked it too... and that's a fun movie to watch for a date night. Ohhh and Nutcracker and the Four Realms... less fun. Also a bad movie: Life of The Party with Melissa McCarthy. There was not a lot to the movie... and I just don't think I needed to see it... or own it. It wasn't quite as silly as The Boss and it wasn't as good as something like Tammy... just for references. Honestly Melissa McCarthy's  Ghostbusters was A LOT better. So... not the best.

I watched The Lego Movie on my own... and that one was really great. I love that movie... and I haven't seen it in a while and I forgot how much I loved it. I need to watch the Batman movie cause I haven't seen that full movie.

Anyway... I'm sure there's more stuff I did that I want to talk about... but tbh right now I just want to sleep... so I'm just going to stop writing there. Hope you guys understand and maybe I'll do another part of this soon. Lol.

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...
