June Favorites 2019

I just did a summer favorites not too long ago... but I wanted to do a June Favorites too because I have a lot of favorites! I did a lot in June! So here are my favorites.

The 2 books I've read this month are You by Caroline Kepnes and One Day in December by Josie Silver. I'm still reading One Day in December now- which I do like... but I'll probably talk about that more next month... but YOU was amazing! It was a quick read but a really fun read... I have a full review of that right here. I think if you like horror and mystery books you'll like it... and following it up with a book like One Day In December is great. My boyfriend is trying to read 100 books this year... I'm going to try to read 100 books by Fourth of July Next Year... so far I've read 3... but still!

My other favorite thing... possibly the favorite thing of June is Frutta Bowls. I LOVE the Frutta Bowls by me... I pretty much always get the same thing... the regular Frutta Bowl... but it is GREAT! I love it!

I also really like Orange Juice. I've been drinking like a glass a day and it is great, great great! Not sure why I said that 3 times... maybe I want it to show up like Beetle Juice... but still!

I saw 3 movies in June... Toy Story 4, Ma, and Men In Black International. Toy Story 4 was my favorite... I reviewed it on my Disney Blog right here. It had it's problems... didn't love how it ended... but I did love the movie overall. The animation was great, the new characters are funny, Forky is almost a monthly favorite all his own... its great. Ma was not bad... but Men In Black International was BAD. I'll probably do a full review on that soon... but it was the worst movie I think I've seen recently. Besides Welcome to Marwen... this was bad.

Netflix favorites... Always Be My Maybe, Umbrella Academy, Aggretsuko, Love Death and Robots, and I saw one episode of Black Mirror that was okay. And I'm still watching the show You...which is a lot different than the book but not in a bad way. Love Death and Robots is also really interesting. Its an anthology series with a bunch of short episodes that are all kind of futuristic... it's good. My favorite episode so far is Three Robots- where 3 robots explore what human life was like and they talk about things from their understanding of human things... it was so funny and clever. When The Yogurt took over is great too- that's the first episode. It gets darker after the first 3 episodes... but its still great. Haven't finished it yet... but it's great.

I loved Umbrella Academy too! I just finished it and I'll probably start the comics... possibly right after I finish writing this!

Aggresuko I'll also probably have a review on... but this season was great and that's how my boyfriend and I first bonded.

I also really like The Bachelorette... except for Luke P.


My most exciting things I've done this month... I went to Atlantic City with my boyfriend for 2 days! Our first trip together... and it was amazing. We stayed at the Hardrock Hotel- which we loved... we loved the comedy show that we saw... it was just awesome. And I can't really stop thinking about it!

I have also really been liking to visit comic book stores. I'll talk more about my adventures tomorrow... but it's pretty fun! I'm excited to read more. I just really like Comic book stores and book stores.

Also... I'm getting back into Podcasts... My favorite lately is once again How Did This Get Made. They did an episode on a movie called The Secret with David Duchovny... this is a movie where his wife and daughter go in a coma and the wife is alive in the daughter's body... and it's as weird and creepy as it sounds. I saw it years ago and I've seen the DVDS a few times... but this movie is hard to find for a reason... its bad.

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...
