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!

Scribbles about TV: Jane The Virgin Review!

This I think is a surprise hit, so of corse I needed to watch it for myself to see! It's been getting a lot of critical buzz because it has been reviewed as "one of the best pilots of the season" and I also have been hearing a few critics saying that they don't think it will last because the word "virgin" is in the title... which is stupid. There is nothing wrong with being a virgin and if a show is good, its good and people should watch it... plus this did bring pretty high ratings for The CW so the critics that said that can suck it! Lol. Overall I really liked this show. One thing thats been bothering me a lot about the new Fall shows is that the characters aren't interesting enough. Especially the female characters. I thought that this showed a lot of really strong female characters that were interesting. This had a pretty big cast with A LOT of stuff going on for a pilot and most of the characters were female. That is a powerful thing to see on TV...

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...

Man Crush Monday: Jimmy Fallon

Jimmy Fallon is one of my favorite talk show hosts... and I pretty much like all the late night talk show hosts... so that is saying a lot. (I haven't actually watched James Cordin yet, but I have a huge crush on him from Into The Woods, so yeah. I also have a crush on Seth Meyer though... And all the comedy central guys... ugh. Lol. and obviously Jimmy Fallon. Lol.) So yeah... this is saying a lot that he is one of my favorites. 1) He genuinely acts like he has the most fun job in the world-  Jimmy Fallon is always really excited about the show. He pretty much does have the most fun job ever, and he actually appreciates it. He was on SNL, and when he left SNL for late night he was excited and proud of his job, and now on The Tonight Show he's very happy. 2) His Ice Cream Flavors are good- This one is completely random... but I feel like having Ben and Jerry's make an ice cream flavor after you is a really big honor and a great responsibility. You can tell a lot about a...
