Five Below Haul! Snacks, Writing Supplies and more!

Alright- so I've been going to 5 below... kind of a lot now. And I don't quite remember everything I bought from there... but I do have the receipt for one order and I can kind of remember some other things I've bought recently... so yeah! 

First off... let's start with the snacks! 

I got a S'mores candy bar from the brand  Chuao. I really like this brand and they usually have a good selection of flavors at Five Below. This one was really good and you could taste all the s'mores flavors! 

I also really like the Reese's Take 5 Bars... Take 5 Bars are already really good- combine it with Reese's and it's amazing. I also grabbed a reese's Fast break bar because... those are underrated too and that was also really good. 

And they had White Chocolate Twix and that sounded delicious... 

And when I was at the checkout I saw they had Almond Pockey... so I grabbed that too! 

Okay... I think that's all the snacks I got now onto some random things... 

I've been doing Yoga a lot lately- so I grabbed a Yoga book. It's from Anatomy of Fitness and it is 501 Yoga Exercises. I've been doing Yoga With Adrienne videos- but I thought this might be a good way to see the different poses a little better and see what they look like and maybe practice without doing a yoga video. 

I also grabbed the movie Paranormal Activity 3... weirdly this is my favorite Paranormal Activity Movie. I liked the first one too- but idk if I could watch that one again... and I didn't really like the 2nd movie and the fourth movie was okay but not scary and... there were too many coincidences in that movie. It was a little weird. And I never saw the last movie or The Marked Ones... so I can't compare it to those. 

Anyway- for $5 it was worth it. 

I also grabbed an Amiibo of Celeste from Animal Crossing. You guys know I love Animal Crossing and Celeste is one of my favorites!!! 

And the rest is all paper supplies! I got this one really cool sketchbook that I've been using as a bullet Journal... and it's been good and I like having a nice big book for it. 

Next up I actually got 2 packs of my favorite pens- the Pilot Frixon Erasable Gel Pens. These write sooo nice... but they're really expensive. Here even I think they were $5 which is kind of a lot- especially since the pack only had 1 black and one blue pen... but I thought I'd use it and I was excited to find it kind of useful and I think it was cheaper than Target's. 

I also got some Marble Mechanical pencils because I thought they looked pretty. These break off easily because of how it clicks up and down instead of having the turny thing on the tip of the pencil to control it... but I still thought it was fun. 

Anyway this was a nice, fun haul... and I really liked the stuff I ended up getting. 

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...

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...
