Grace and Frankie Review

Okay, so I'm finally caught up on Grace and Frankie after several seasons! All it took was a global pandemic! Just kidding- that isn't funny! After Season 3 though... I wasn't really sure about the series. I didn't think it was as good as it used to be... but the show is always funny and it got a lot better very quickly after that season! 
an
I think Season 6 was my favorite- that is the most recent season! Grace is newly married to Nick, who is much younger than she is and she's feeling a little insecure because of her recent knee surgery- she isn't able to do the things that she used to do. She ends up getting stuck on the toilet and she has to call Frankie to help her get up! This gives Frankie the idea for The Rise Up- a toilet designed to help older people or people that had surgery get off of the toilet. They even go on Shark Tank to pitch the idea! 

The season also ends in the funniest way... and I don't really want to spoil it- but... they haven't gotten to filming yet so I'm kind of hoping they show how the quarantines are going for the gang. It would be really funny to see Grace and Frankie and Robert and Sol stuck together. They do have a table read of the first episode of season 7 filmed- I haven't watched it yet... but that makes me think that they wrote the season but haven't filmed it yet... so they might not have any quarantine episodes and they might not be able to film for a long time. 

Every character really had some great moments through the last few seasons too. Brianna and Barry's relationship is just hilarious and sweet and weird. It was also fun to see Bud get married and for them to have a new baby. Plus Coyote ends up getting together with one of Bud's ex girlfriends... and that ends really funny. Overall all the seasons are funny- but Season 6 was my favorite. 

I didn't love Robert and Sol's story in season 3... but in season 4,5,and 6 I thought they really grew and they kind of became my favorite characters and definitely one of my favorite tv couples! They're just so different but still so perfect together! 

Anyway I know I'm late to catching up on the show and I'm late to reviewing these seasons... but definitely check it out if you're looking for something to watch. It's a really fun show and one of my favorites for sure! 

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...
