Weekly Wrap Up 8.16.20

 It's my boyfriend and my 2 year dating anniversary today! Two years ago we went to PF Changs and saw the movie Christopher Robin and it was the best first date ever! Anyway- here's the weekly wrap up! 

Favorites 

Umbrella Academy Season 2- This is such a fun show! I have a review of it coming up next week... but just know this isn't an easy show to review... so just watch it and let me know if you guys love it as much as I do. I liked the second season wayyyy better than the first one. 

We Bare Bears- My boyfriend made me watch this show! It's really cute and funny... I only saw the first  2 episodes I think... maybe the first 3... yeah the first 3 I think... but it's really funny and a lot of the voices are famous comedians. So yeah! That's great! 

Bath and Body Works- Bath and Body Works is like my happy place lately and I've been buying A LOT from there and it's all really good stuff. They have a new Aromatherapy Line that I like a lot- and they have a lot of really great new fall scents. Great stuff that I definitely recommend checking out! 

Life Scribbles 

I went to work this week... I had the weekend off which is great. 

I switched where my makeup is to my other room and now I have my notebooks and papery writing stuff on my desk in my room... so this is really nice! 

And... other than that... I had a wrap from a restaurant I like... I shopped a bit... didn't do anything too crazy but I had a good week! 

Noteworthy Snacks 

I've been going to Finn's kind of a lot lately... it's a place that once I eat at I can't really get enough of and lately I've been ordering something called the Hawaii Five 0... which is a Chicken Caesar Wrap and I really like it. It's something I didn't think I'd like- but now that I've tried it I might order this from more places. 

I also had a cookies and cream Twix Bar... which was alright- but the Oreo Bars are way better. 

TV Highlights 

General Hospital is back on!!! Finally something new! But they have a new Sam... who I don't really like and a new Nicholas who I think was on the show before... but I don't like him as much as the other Nicholas. It's stuff I'll need to get used to but I probably won't really watch the show enough. 

Thoughts 

I'm just really happy and I have been for 2 years!!! 

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...
