Add It To My List

To Buy: Fight The Power pin ($10- junk-o.com)
I've never been a big pin person, but I would be if there were more like this. There's also a "Fake News" one available, and coming soon "Resist" and "Nevertheless, She Persisted."
Fight the Power:
To Download: WTForecast? app
My new favorite weather app. Effective and funny on the daily. If you're not cool with all the colorful language, you can change the setting to less or none. Available for free in 20+ languages (including ig-pay atin-lay)!


For Your Furry Friend: KONG Cat Hugga Wubba, Cat Toy ($3.09- Amazon)
Kristen previously recommended this, and I am seconding her recommendation. I got this for Keebler's birthday and he is OBSESSED. Best $3 I've ever spent. Also pictured: cat wine. He was less thrilled with the Moscato and has yet to try the Pinot Meow, but my friend's felines loved it. Also available for dogs. 

To Watch: The Handmaid's Tale (Hulu)  4/26
Obviously, I can't watch this until I've read the book (which I just got fo free Amazon Prime Reading- woot!). And I know nothing about the story at all, but it's received great reviews and has Alexis Bledel and Joseph Fiennes, so I'll be all in. Have you watched this yet?

First Dates (NBC) 4/7
Brought to the U.S. by Ellen DeGeneres with narration by Drew Barrymore comes First Dates, a reality series where you get set up on a blind dinner date and figure out if you want to meet up again or not. I've only watched the first two episodes so far, and I'm loving it. People be cray, man.

Married at First Sight (Lifetime) 4/20
Finally! After FYI/A&E dropped the show, I thought all hope for a return was lost. However Lifetime picked it back up- huzzah! I love getting a glimpse at people's lives/relationships (why I love blogging too!). Have you been watching this one? See where the past couples are now!

The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks (HBO) 4/22
Another one that I've put on hold until I read the book, which has been on my TBR list since 2012. So maybe it didn't' get the best reviews, but I'm interested in the story and there's Oprah.

Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt (Netflix) 5/19

To Eat/Find: Cookie Dough Eateries
I had no idea this was even a thing until I saw it on Miranda's post. A place where all they sell is raw cookie dough. Now yes, I know I can make my own, but obviously I have to try theirs as well. SO MANY FLAVORS AND OPTIONS! I found one in NYC, but apparently they exist in Fl too.

What are you recommending this month?

  2. The Handmaid's Tale was an extremely impactful read. I read it over 20 years ago and have never gotten over it. I will watch the show.

    Pins are my new thing. I love those. Thanks for the link.

  3. Love the fight the power pin! Maybe a cookie dough place will open up near you soon! I have been following the one in NY on Instagram for months, so when I saw the one was opening here I flipped out, ha ha.

  4. I have been meaning to read Handmaid since...high school? And just have repeatedly failed to get around to it. I want to read it before watching the series too... tell me about this free Amazon reading thing?

    YAS Kimmy Schidt returning! Can't wait.

    I also need to know more about this cookie dough experience. Where in the city is it?!

  7. The Handmaid's Tale and Henrietta Lacks were both great books. I am banned from Hulu (I keep forgetting to cancel it and get charged) but I need to get a trial and binge it. I need to look into that cat toy, though my cat is super picky and hates most things... but for $3, it's worth the risk! I'll be in NYC next week so I am off to see if my hotel is near the cookie dough place. Fingers crossed! Thanks for linking up!

  10. I love WTForecast! Mine today says: "Fix your fucking attitude. It's going to be cloudy all fucking day." Why does this make me giggle so much?!? Simple pleasures.

    I need to check out that kitty toy.

    I love that pin!!

  11. I heard about that cookie dough place and have been dying to go back to NYC to try it. I hear its awesome!! I so am adding The Handmaid's Tale to my reading list, I think I would prefer to read the book than watch the show.

  12. I love that pin! I've never heard of Junk-o, but now I want it all. Patti Lapel is another fun one. I've been adding all theirs to my list too. I just put that cat toy in my shopping cart! The Handmaid's Tale is on my list. It feels like ten shows came out at the same time and I can't keep up! My book club is watching Henrietta Lacks at my house next week! It was my pick last month and I just finished the book a few days ago. OMG. I want a cookie dough place!!
