Barnes and Noble Haul... again...

Sooo... I have a book problem lol. I bought too much stuff at Barnes and Noble yet again- but I'm happy with what I bought so I have to share it. 

First thing... this is actually the last thing that I picked up but A Darker Shade of Magic by V.E. Schwab. My boyfriend loves this series and I have his other two books from the series but I think he lent the first book to a friend of his and I don't think they've read it yet so I grabbed the first book so that I could finally read it. 

I also got Heavy Vinyl Volume 2 this is a comic book by Carly Usdin. I read Volume 1 last year and I didn't know  they were making a Volume 2- but my boyfriend found it and I was really excited for it! 

I also got a really nice Rose Gold Deck of Cards. Idk why really- but my boyfriend saw them and wanted them and I really liked how the Rose Gold Deck looked and he liked it a lot too. We need to learn some card games cause these are pretty cool. 

I also got a Yoga book- which is kind of what I was looking for. I like doing Yoga Videos from Yoga With Adrienne on youtube- but I also kind of wanted a book about Yoga just to kind of perfect doing different Yoga Positions and learn a little bit more about Yoga in general. I believe this has some meditation and breathing guides too so that's really good. I haven't been doing Yoga too long- but I want to keep up with it and I thought this would be a good thing to get to keep up with it. This book is by Rachel Scott. 

Okay so I got a book on lettering because that's been a hobby of mine lately. I like to make cards and this book had some other projects also. Plus it just looked like a really cool way to make some different letters for things- so I really wanted to try it! The book is called Lettering Alphabets and Artwork by Jay Roeder. I'm really excited to use some of these! 

And the last thing I got is a little weird- but The Crystal Handbook by Judy Hall. I like crystals and I like knowing what exactly they're good for and what they can help with. 

So that is everything! It was a lot of guide books that I didn't really need... but I like having stuff like that on hand for some reason... idk. Maybe it was too much but it makes me happy and it's stuff I'm interested in. 

So that is everything! I hope you guys like it! 

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...
