Barnes And Noble Haul!

 For some reason I thought this was going to be like a huge haul... cause this is more than I typically buy at Barnes and Noble... but it didn't actually end up being all that much stuff... so I wonder if there was something else I'm forgetting about or... what it is lol. I just bought a lot kind of. 

First things first I got the new Grady Hendrix Book- The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires. I really loved Horrorstor by the same author and I want to read his other books before Halloween. I tried this last year... but I think I'm going to try harder this year lol. 

Then I got a Meditation Magazine. I haven't been keeping up with yoga as much as I should be lately... but I need to get back into it and I did really like the Meditation aspect of Yoga as well... so I would like to include that in the practice also. 

I saw a book table that I thought was a sale table... but it wasn't... but it had a book called The Wig, The Bitch and the Meltdown by Jay Manuel. I think he's from Project Runway or some fashion show... I forget which one but yeah. This looks funny and different. I'll read it sometime soon. 

And I got #GirlBoss from Sophia Amoruso. I've been wanting to read this for years and I couldn't find it for the longest time... which is so funny because this is a really popular book. I remember when it first came out it was EVERYWHERE and everyone used to love NastyGal when Sophia owned it... so it was kind of sad when they stopped having it everywhere. 

And I got some Caligraphy Paper because I have been getting into Caligraphy and Cardmaking recently because I don't really want to buy cards with the pandemic. Plus it's just fun and creative. 

I think that is everything! I hope you guys like this and know what to expect me reviewing and reading sometimes soon. 

Bye!

Blogmas Day 12: The 12 Days of Christmas Gift Guide

So I thought it would be fun to do a gift guide that every gift corresponds with the price. So like for the first day of Christmas $1 gift that would be good and then up from there. These would be good stocking stutterers and things I just think are unique. $1- Solar Powered Dancers!  My mom loves getting the little dancing solar powered people. We get most of ours from Dollar tree... other dollar stores have them too, they're super cute and fun for $1. Its good to put near any plants that you have that way you know they're getting sunlight. It's a good gift. $2- Mini Coloring Book!  At 5 Below they had some mini travel sized coloring books for $2. I thought these were pretty cool. I got the Botanical one I believe. Really cute and fun! I would recommend! $3-   Ceramic Truck w/ Christmas Tree  I saw this at the Target Dollar Spot and I thought it was cute and would probably make a great gift. If you know someone who has a truck or likes the sort of "rustic C...

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...

Scribbles about Books: Horns by Joe Hill

I picked this book up not too long ago because after seeing the trailer for the movie and seeing it was based on a book I thought "Hey, that looks good. I should read the book." Then my friend gave me a Barnes and Noble gift card for my birthday and I thought "Hey I wanted to read Horns, I should grab that." And I did, and I had to read it around halloween of corse! So this is my kind of horror story first of all. I love that the universe it takes place in is very realistic and very small-town. If you've noticed in some of my other book reviews... I like mysteries that take place in small towns. And its very believable because the world and the characters are all so real. I think its a good book just for that. The book starts out with this guy Ignatious, or Ig a year after his girlfriend Merrin is murdered. He grows horns from out of his head... for no real reason. And then a few chapters in we find out who really did it and then we find out why and that thi...
