Things made for the Pandemic that I bought and have used

 Okay so you guys know how some things that weren't really a thing before are now popping up everywhere because there's a pandemic... I've bought some of those things- here are my thoughts. 

MASKS 

Masks are a big thing. I have a few scarf face coverings- but I can't wear those to work... so I was wearing the paper ones that my company provided for me for a while... but then those were getting uncomfortable and they said cloth masks were more effective- so I ordered some cloth face masks from Old Navy and I really love them! Didn't know if they would be comfortable to work in all day- but they are! They might be a little hotter than the paper masks- but the paper masks got uncomfortable around my nose. Plus now I have some colors to match my outfits... so that's fun! 

HAND SANITIZER 

Okay- I usually have Hand Sanitizer on me anyway- but some new brands have come out with Hand Sanitizer lately and those are important too. I really like the Mrs. Meyer's Spray- I have the lavender one in my purse right now and it's really nice. I also like the Sol de Janiero one... I really like sprays because if something gets on your foot or your ankles- you can sanitize that easily too. I also have my bath and body works scented one... so they're all really nice. 

KEY PROTECT/ KEY SMART 

I forget what the one I got was- but I've been seeing them everywhere now- they're little things that look like keys that you can use to open doors or push pin pads. I honestly don't use mine all that much... I'm not totally sure where I put it but it is useful and now that my store has been getting them... I might buy another just to have. I'm probably going to continue using this because I also don't like opening doors in public in general lol. 

LED LIGHT SANITIZING TRAY 

The one I got was the SKETCHIEST because I got it off of TMZ's website... yep that TMZ and it came in a box with no label or anything so... it's a little sketchy but it does have the light in it and it does sanitize whatever you put in there and it works easy. Honestly there's a voice on it that's very garbled and I feel like that is why it's not highly rated... plus I don't think it actually charges your phone... but it was cheap and it does sanitize so... its not crazy crazy. 

Those are all the gimmicky things that I feel like have been made because of this pandemic that I've tried. I know there are a lot of different wipes and laundry sanitizers and things that are harder to get right now but... yeah! I Hope you guys found this useful! I think it's interesting at least. 

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...
