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!

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...

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...
