Smash Season 2 Episode 8 “The Bells and Whistles” Liveblog

Smash_Title_Card

Ok, folks. Here we go. The second-to-last Smash live blog. I love to hate watch this show, but not enough to stay home on Saturday night to watch it live. This episode is called “The Bells and Whistles.” I’m sure it’s about Gay Kyle and Jimmy Who joining a boys choir. Or begging for change on the street. Or aliens. Hell, it’s probably all three.

See ya in the comments! Continue reading

Smash Liveblog Season 2 Episode 7 “Musical Chairs”

Smash_Title_Card

Another Tuesday, another shitty episode of this shitty TV show. Turns out NBC has finally figured out what we’ve known about this show all along and has decided to move it to Saturdays starting April 6. So we’ve got this week and then next to suffer through this together. The show’s showrunner, Josh  Safran says the season finale will also be the series finale. (h/t to DottieB for the info.)

Anywho – this week’s episode is called “Musical Chairs.” I’m sure it’s about Jimmy Who going to IKEA to pick out some new furniture for his apartment. Continue reading

I Made That: Homemade Cheez-Its

store boughtLike any normal red-blooded ‘Murrikan, I love Cheez-Its. Recently, my roommate started the Paleo diet and I scored nearly a full box of these cheesy wonders. I thought it would be a wise idea to store them at my desk for those times in the day when I need a little snack. BIG MISTAKE.

When I opened the box between morning snack time and lunch, I thought “oh, I’ll just have a couple.” A couple turned into one handful, which turned into another and another and another before I put the box in my desk where it would be too much trouble to reach in for just a few more. Then came afternoon snack time, the appropriate time for Cheez-Its. I could not control myself and ended up eating about half of what was left. By the time the end of the day rolled around, there was only about a quarter of the box left. “Good,” I thought. Just enough for a snack on Monday and I will never bring the entire box of Cheez-Its to work again.I posted of my gluttony on Facebook and a friend reminded me of the recipe she sent me for homemade Cheez-Its. I felt adventurous this week and decided to make them again using this recipe. Continue reading

Doing Lay’s a Flavor: Reviewing Chicken and Waffles Chips

Like many other Super Bowl viewers, I saw this Lay’s commercial during the course of the game. I was very intrigued at the three new flavors, especially the Chicken & Waffles. I’ve had spicy chips and garlic/parmesan chips before, but never chicken and waffles. When I came across all three flavors in Wal-Mart last weekend, I decided I needed to try Chicken & Waffles.
