Weekly Wrap Up: 5.17.20

Favorites 

Friends Friday- OKAY SHANNON WE GET IT YOU LIKE FRIENDS! I love friends you guys! I have pretty much been watching it all day every day during the pandemic...and while that might be kind of bad... I feel like watching Friends really de-stresses me and... it's just something I feel like I need right now. With that- I've also realized I love talking about Friends... so I'm going to have a post about Friends every friday on this blog. Now I don't have any real structure to it... it's just anything Friends related. My favorite 2 episodes changed recently so that's what I've posted so far but I also have a character appreciation post coming out this friday, I have a list of shows that are like Friends... and I think I'm going to maybe comment on some fan theories and maybe write some of my own. Or I'll just talk about specific jokes and stuff... I have a lot of ideas. I may also start re-watching it from the beginning and post about the episodes... but that won't be something I'll do every single week on the blog... so it might take a long time. 

I feel like I've been more excited about writing and posting on this blog lately... my other blogs too but Friends Friday might be the most excited I've been for this! 

Scoob- I watched Scoob last night and I thought it was really good! I'll probably post my review on this on The Cozy Princess because I think that's where it belongs... but I think if you have kids its worth checking out but also even if you know a little bit about Hanna Barbera and you like Hanna Barbera... you'll like it a lot! It really connected a lot of the cartoons together and I don't really know Hanna Barbera that well... but I did appreciate all the characters and references from my knowledge of the cartoons. 

Charmed- I started watching this once I finished New Girl... and part of me is like "This is kind of boring... I'm not sure I can watch it." To "... I feel like this show is going somewhere" and now I find myself wanting to watch it. I feel like I still need a show to replace New Girl because I'm not as sure I'll watch as much of this as I could watch New Girl. It's a longer show and it's not like a funny show... plus it is very dated as far as special effects goes so... I'm not sure. 

These Baby Yoda Toys- 

I haven't ordered these yet... but these come in 2 packs for $15 I think... I saw someone in a facebook group that had ordered all of them and they look really cute together. I may order at least 1 pack of these... but which one? Ugh this is so hard you know I'm going to order them all. Lol. 

I think these might be from Hasbro? I'm not really sure. They're available for pre-order on Target's website and they're said to ship around the 25th... so idk. 


Life Scribbles 

Okay the biggest news of the week... MY ANIMAL CROSSING ISLAND IS 5 STARS BABY!!!! I feel like it's maybe the worst looking 5 star island of all time but still! It's 5 stars and it's going places! I'm probably going to post all about my island on The Cozy Princess this week but I'm so excited! I've worked really hard and I like a lot of my new areas! 

I got takeout from The Habit- which is a burger place. I ordered from Doordash and they had everything down really well! I was super impressed with how they had everything wrapped and ready to go. They also have a special where you can get 4 burgers, 4 fries and a salad for $25- which in reality is $33... soooo that wasn't too bad. 

Also this week I made cards for Mother's day... although it was late. I think I kind of recognized how to do calligraphy the right way and how to not get ink everywhere and on everything... so that was a good thing to do. I'm not the craftiest still... but I tried it and I don't think I'll share pictures now because I might do a post on them... but I still don't know if they came out that well so I'm not really sure. 

Noteworthy Snacks 

The Habit Burgers and fries- Those are damn delicious and I really liked eating it lol. 

Gold Peak Green Tea- So really the best is the Raspberry Iced Tea which tastes like candy... but this green tea is also really good. 

Asia Star Cafe- So this is in Tinton Falls NJ and it's really delicious. Got takeout from there this week and it was just so good. I know I've mentioned a lot of takeout places but we got takeout twice this week and that's exciting! 

M&Ms- Just the plain ones... idk they're really good and chocolatey. I've been having them a lot this week... 

Trix Trolls Cereal- Trix released a cereal for the Trolls World Tour Movie and they have swirls in the trix and marshmallows... I didn't get a lot of marshmallows in mine but it was pretty good! 

TV Highlights 

Single Parents might be my favorite show on TV right now... that had a really good finale. 

Also American Housewife had a good finale. 

I want to watch How To Get Away With Murder from the beginning again... but my mom said the finale was really good and worth watching so I should probably watch that. 

And The Masked Singer which is kind of just okay right now... I've been disappointed because there are so many people that aren't that famous on it. Idk. I'm excited for the finale on Wednesday. 

News and World Events 

HAMILTON IS COMING TO DISNEY PLUS ON JULY 3RD!!!!! I was really excited for it's theatrical release being the same as my 30th birthday but I can watch Hamilton all day on July 3rd and on the 4th of July. If there's one good thing in all of this... it's that I can watch hamilton all day in a couple of months. 

There were a lot of celebrity deaths this week also that were very sad. Roy of Sigfried and Roy died from Coronavirus complications, Little Richard, Jerry Stiller, and Fred Willard all passed away this week. I'm a big fan of Jerry Stiller- the Festivus episode of Seinfeld is one of the funniest things... ever. I quote that episode ALL THE TIME without even realizing it. It's so good. I need to watch Seinfeld from start to finish some time. 

Thoughts 

Find what makes you happy and get inspiration from that. Like me with my Friends Friday... I can't wait to write more and now I'm more inspired for this whole blog.

Scribbles About TV: Jane The Virgin Finale Review (SPOILERS)

So.... Can we talk about all the twists because there were a lot! I didn't even see all of them coming! Alrighty we start out in typical Jane The Virgin Mode with Jane's choice between Raphael and Michael... I'd be okay with either but I think I'm team Michael. Jane has a weird moment with Raphael and thinks she's better off without him and just having him be the father of her child. She's also starting to have some feelings for Michael again. Then she almost has the baby on the bus and some woman helps her and gets the bus driver to take her to the hospital. Rogellio and Xo are in Vegas and they get drunk and can't remember what happens, but they make it just in time to see Jane deliver a baby boy. I knew it would be a boy! Lets pause on that a little and go to Michael and his ex partner/friend with benefits who comes back says she has a lead on Sin Rostro, gives him an address where the plastic surgeon is and by the time Michael gets there, he's de

Disney Store Closing Haul

So if you read my post from yesterday- you know that I love The Disney Store, but it is unfortunately closing. I did pick up some things from the store that I thought I'd share with you guys! I did get a couple of t shirts. One is a Star Wars shirt, which is technically a men's shirt but I thought it looked really cool and I don't like that Disney doesn't carry the same things for men and for women. For the most part they look unisex to me and a lot of their men's stuff has characters I like better. Like the star wars shirt for women was grey with pink lettering and had no pictures, but the mens shirt had a really cool metallic silver logo on black clothing with pictures of all the new characters and Luke inside of the letters... much cooler! So I got that! The other shirt I got is really funny and it has Sleeping Beauty on it and it says "I Woke Up Like This." Which I really liked! Super cute and funny and my niece likes it when I wear shirts with c

Scribbles About Life: 3.10.16

Soooo... I don't really want to post about my day... but I don't really want to post anything else either. I started writing something about female characters in movies and TV... but I just didn't like what I was writing and... idk... I was a blog writing machine this week and now I feel defeated. I wrote a ton on Monday and Tuesday and now I just don't feel like doing a post today... but I want to write still... So I'll talk about things that I guess are on my mind lately... Idk. So I got this Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor... and for some reason... I'm addicted to the way that it smells. Idk why, it smells like cherry medicine... but I also sort of like it. Its more cherry than medicine... and I can't smell it on my lips... but Idk. I keep smelling it in the tube. I got some cute stuff from American Eagle yesterday too! I got a dress and a romper... I do not own any Rompers... except this one... but it looked good on me and it didn't make me look f
