Could I Be A Full Time Binge Watcher?

Good Morning!

Wouldn't you love to be able to have your retail therapy session covered by your insurance?

Be a stay at home Dog mom?

Get to be a Full Time binge watcher?

Yeah me too!

Lately I have felt like that's all I have been doing... the binge watching....

Which I love!

No commercials....

No waiting for the next episode.... unless you finish the season and there is more to come...

I am looking for a new show to binge watch and was wondering if you could help me?

My plan this weekend is to just chill....

So I am going to need a new show to help out with that!

Here's a list of everything I have binge watched within the last month.

Prison Break; Seasons 1-4 On Netflix and then the 3 new season episodes

I was so hooked and kept asking myself Why I hadn't watched the show when it was on regular TV back in the day? Michael and Lincoln are such a great team and well not that bad to look at.  I will say though it was hard for me to see Michael ( Wentworth Miller) not as the swim team member that turned into a fish on Buffy The Vampire Slayer. If any of you can remember that from so long ago. (Season 2 Episode 20 Titled Go Fish) Oh and Sara (Sarah Wayne Callies) because well I see her as Rick's wife Lori on Walking Dead. The story though was so cool how it all played out! The 3 new episodes have made me very happy to see that the show hasn't changed!!

Grace and Frankie : (Season 3)

I never thought I could laugh so hard at "old ladies"! If you haven't watched this show it's a must. They live is such a beautiful house and are kinda of like the " odd couple" kinda of living.  You know one messy one proper. Anyway, in this season Grace and Frankie are trying to get their Vibrators on the market. Yep... you read right. Super funny! Definitely a must see! Not going to say any more because I don't want to spoil it for anyone!

13 Reasons Why : (Season 1)

This show has been posted on my news feeds in social media because of some many people watching it. This show is a REAL show.  the Real kind of feeling you get from watching This Is Us. It's a young girl in high school who shows you the 13 reasons as to why she committed suicide. Now it looked like normal school life.... its what happens. It was great to see it really shown what happens in schools now a days because it's true it is what was happening in middle school which is why I begged to Home school for high school. It does get a little gruesome because they show the girl committing suicide and They showed a rape took place. Not only was it just about the suicide they touched on how the one raping didn't think of himself as raping the girls. I feel like the show is a must see for all young boys and girls to show them this is what goes on... DON'T DO IT! Make the change!

Stranger Things : (Season 1)

I don't even know what to say about this show besides it was STRANGE! I liked it though! Some twists occurred which makes me ready to watch the next season when it comes out for sure. 

Big Little Lies : (Season 1)

I just finished this show! 7 episodes! This was one of my favorite show I have seen in a very long time! I mean the very first scene they show people dressed like Audrey Hepburn! How could it not be a Kick Butt Show! This show has such an AWESOME CAST! Which is what drew me to watch the show. Reese Witherspoon Who I have loved in so many movies... Legally Blonde...Sweet Home Alabama....Cruel Intentions....Four Christmases....This Means War...Walk The Line... and so on and so on..... Nicole Kidman who I'm really not a fan of... not just because she is married to Keith Urban my dilike for her was before he came into the picture....Shailene Woodley who is the lead in some of my favorite movies the Divergent movie series with Zoe Kravitz who is also on the show as well.... and Alexander Skarsgard which if any of you True Blood fans miss him as Eric... well Watch this show! The show had to me a kind of Pretty Little Liars feel to it so very much suggested a must watch for you PLL fans! Many Twists and turns on the show and I am so ready to see the next episode! The finale was one that was very vocal through! Mostly saying " I told you! I knew it!" Then with a " OMG! NO WAY!"  Must watch!

Oh also I watched Big Little Lies on the Fire Stick TV thing we have... I really don't know much about it to even explain what that is...

I married a nerd so... yeah...

Alright, so if any of you have any show suggestions that will top those.... Give them to me!

If you have watched these shows... I would love to hear your thoughts on them as well!

So Comment Comment Comment!!

Hope you all have a great day!

Pop Tart Appetizer anyone?

Hello!

3 more days!!

How many times have you watched the trailers on Netflix?

Twice everyday right? 

I know I'm not the only one?

Anyway.....

Now Pop Tarts are a must for your Gilmore Girl party... why? Well duh, Lorelei sat them out as an appetizer for the Chilton study group Rory had.  

Now personally I would stick with the store bought ones... I am a sucker for the Chocolate Fudge Pop Tarts... No one better mess with those if I am on my Pop Tart kick... Me on Hangry Status is nothing compared to my Pop Tart love!

Well these Taco Pop Tarts are perfect Twist to make for Gilmore Girls or your Taco Tuesdays!!! 


Beef Taco Pop Tarts

Ingredients:

2 boxes of refrigerated pie crust (total of 4 pie crusts), at room temperature
1 Tablespoon of Olive Oil
1/2 onion, Thinly sliced
1/2 pound of Ground Beef
1 Table Spoon of Taco Seasoning
1 cup of Cheddar cheese


Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 F and line two baking sheets.
Working with one pie crust at a time, unroll onto working surface and cut into six rectangles. Repeat with remaining crusts.
(should make about 12 rectangles)

In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil until hot .
Saute onion for 5 minutes. 
Add beef and cook completely through like you would when making tacos.  
Add Taco seasoning and combine well.
Remove from heat and let cool.

Place six pie crust rectangles on one of your baking sheets. 

Spoon Beef and Cheese on top.

Top each with a cut crust and gently press around the edges. Use fork to make pretty edges.
make a few incisions on top to help let steam escape.

Once all Pop Tarts are filled and topped and made to look pretty, Bake for 15-20 minutes. 

I would serve with some Sour Cream and/or Guacamole if you wanted to make it real Taco Tuesday style.

If you make these Let me know what you think!!!

I'm sure I could eat Tacos every day!!!

What about you?

The Rory

Good morning everyone!

Here is the next post to helping you throw The best Gilmore Girls Binge for the new show to come!!

 I know a little early to be discussing drinking... but... It's 5 o' clock somewhere and this has been the longest week and it's only TUESDAY...

 I got super excited though when I found this recipe!!! 

I am going to have to make this either for the girls to come over for the Gilmore Girls binge or for Me, Myself, and I to try. 

I mean how cool is it to try stuff from your favorite TV show?

Remember Rory's 21st Birthday party?!

Well Emily made her a signature drink for her party she threw her....

Called....

The Rory

1 oz Chilled Vodka

1.5-2 oz Pineapple Juice

0.5 oz grenadine

SHAKE!

and top with a float of champagne.

Add a cherry or lemon spiral for your garnish .

Now if you are like me... you are probably asking what does float of Champagne mean... Well you know how you learn something new everyday... well here you go...

Floating means to pour gently on top of the drink. Floating refers to the fact that you want the liquor to "Float" on top of the other ingredients. In this case you want the Champagne to float on top.

You also don't stir the drink after adding the float.

So of course it has to be a little complicated since well Emily picked it right?

I can't wait to make it and share with you my thoughts on it and I want to hear yours if you make it as well!!!

Now I was going to just do these posts on Tuesday... But I have found more recipes so.... Eek! There may have to be a Gilmore Girls Week to prep you for the Binge watching!

Gilmore Girls Post 1    

Please share what you are planning to do for your Gilmore Girls Binge party!

Whether you are going all out or eating a pop tart..... I want to know!

I am so super excited!!!

I CAN'T WAIT!!!!

Hope you enjoy this post!!!

Have an awesome day!
