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!

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...
