Target Tuesday: What I Miss About Target

So while I know Target is still open and considered an essential business... for what I go to Target for- it doesn't make sense to go there. I don't think they should be open other than for groceries- so as much as I love Target and as much as I'd like to go there just to see what they have or just be in there... I know its not right and I can get anything I want from Target online... as you guys can tell from my other 2 Target Posts. Tomorrow I might put what I LOVE about Target's website because it is all the joy of Target from your home.

The Dollar Spot 

The dollar spot is very fun to peruse and see all of the decorations. I haven't been buying as much from the dollar spot recently, but it is one of my favorite places to check out around holidays and I love seeing how people decorate using items from The Dollar Spot. This is also known as Bullseye's Playground... which leads me to my next point.

Bullseye 

Bullseye is so cute!!! I miss seeing him around the store- I love how they show him digging and wagging his tail in Bullseye's playground... I just think he's the cutest! I miss seeing his little face!

The Book Section 
I have bought 2 books recently... and before everything happened I had bought so many books I really don't need to be looking for books anytime soon... but I LOVE BOOK SHOPPING! I always look at the covers of the book- I know you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover but when you're book shopping you totally should- and then I read the description and the praise for the book and I go "ohhh this looks cute/fun/interesting... I need to read it!" Target always has some great deals on books too so I'm sad I can't see them in person... but I have bought some books online so I'm happy about that.

The DVD/ Blu Ray Selection 
I love buying DVDS and Blu Rays but right now the only way I really buy any are if Target has them on sale. Whether it's something I've seen already or something I really want to see or I'm kind of intrigued by... I'll usually get it if Target has it for a good price. On Black Friday I think one of the best things I've ever bought was all 3 John Wick Movies... these movies are just so good!

The Makeup Section 
I don't always buy makeup from Target... but it's so easy to just get makeup or some brushes or something when you're there. I wanted to get one of those brush frying racks from Sonia Kashuk and I regret not buying it.

Along with that... I miss the bath and body products. I miss Hand Sanitizer in general right now... but they had some nice shower gels I feel like I should have tried. Now they're not really keeping a good stock online so it's hard to say when I'll be able to try some of them.

The Snacks 
I really liked that seasonal Sugar Cookie Milk target's brand Market Pantry had... I'd totally love seeing more of those. I also really liked the Archer Farms trail mixes... and the seasonal Wondershop trail mixes... I guess if I was buying snacks I could go to Target... but it's not the same.

I can't wait till Christmas Time! Plus I miss going to self checkout and seeing a candy bar that I wanted and getting that... Target is magical.

The Clothes and Accessories 
I love going into target looking for some sort of vague accessory or top or something because I feel like 9 times out of 10 you can find that very specific thing you're looking for at Target. I wanted a fluffy bag for the winter- went to Target thinking "Maybe I'll have some luck" and I DID! I was so excited it was even better than what I could have pictured and I love it!

And just seeing the trends in clothes and everything... Especially lately I've been buying a lot of clothes and jewelry from Target and I just always really have good luck. I get a lot of compliments and... it's just fun.

That is everything- I hope you guys like this! Let me know what you like about Target and I'll hopefully be back tomorrow with another post!

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...
