Umbrella Academy Season 2 Review

 Okay so... this might be my new favorite show after this season. The first season was pretty good but this season was just kind of mind blowingly awesome... and I loved every second of it!!! 

So in this season the gang goes back in time to the 1960s to try to save the world from the upcoming apocalypse.  And how do they do that... well it involves JFK... I think? 

To be honest it's really hard to describe the plot of Umbrella Academy other than that it's about a group of adopted siblings with superpowers and they're trying to save the world from the apocalypse... and there's also time travel and talking to dead people and mind control and Mary J. Blige... in the first season- not the second season... but still. 

Also if you're familiar with the comics- the show is a little different. According to my boyfriend both are really great but they each kind of have their own story. So... that's good! 

Overall I really liked the time travel in this season and I liked that this gave us a look at history and the 1960s and... it was just good. I think my favorites are Klaus, Number 5 and Alison. But... I liked Luther and Diego a little more in this season than last season... and Vanya was a little more interesting and Ben was in the show a little more too... so... that's all of them haha... and they kind of all are my favorites... but mostly Klaus. 

Okay that is everything! I hope you guys like this review- even though it might not have been that helpful... just watch both seasons... and know that it picks up a bit in season 2 if Season 1 is a little slow for you. There was like one episode in season 1 I didn't like that much... but stick with it because it's a really great show overall! 

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...

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...
