Wonder Woman

Wonder Woman is an awesome movie. The movie goes through the origin story of Wonder Woman. The movie is a truly empowering movie especially of/for women. The movie is set during World War 2.

I'm trying really hard not to spoil the movie. There are some definite twists in the plot. You find yourself engaged in the movie even though you know the good guy/girl always wins. It is an overall great movie as well as theatre experience. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.



Sparkle out!



Ps. Wonder Woman's Armor sparkles as she fights

My Dad is Awesome!!!!

Dads are amazing! I know that I didn't do a father's day post on Father's Day, but I wanted to spend the entire day with my dad. While I'm talking about Father's Day, I made breakfast for my dad and my family. Then we snuggled on the couch and watched him play videogames. Then we watched part of his favorite movie. After that we went and watched Wonder Woman(comment below if you want a post about the movie) in the theatre. Then we went to a sushi linner(lunch for dinner). Then we went to Barnes and Noble and then to a twilight round of miniature golf. We had a really fun day!

Anyways, he is leaving for a couple of days for a business trip, so I wanted to spend as much time with him as possible. So last night after dinner, my dad needed to run some errands for his trip and I went with him. We went to a couple stores for the various things we needed to get. We walk in to the grocery store to get travel soap, deodorant, etc... Then just because we could, we walked to the ice cream section(why not).

Background!!!
So I have my all time favorite ice cream. It is the Ben & Jerry's Cinnamon Buns ice cream. For years (YEARS!!!) I could not find it anywhere. Every time I go to a grocery store, I go to the ice cream section and look for it.  

Continuing....

I tell my dad that I always look for my favorite ice cream and it is never there!! He asks what flavor and I describe it. He scans the ice cream reading the labels out loud.
"Cinnamon Buns" he asks
"What?!" I reply.
He found it!!! I couldn't believe it and still can't believe it! He found the ice cream that I had been searching years for. It was never in stores and it so happened that the day I was at the store with my father that he happened to find it!! He is truly amazing!!

That is why among others reasons that my dad is the best in the world.

P.S If your ice cream gets super cold in the freezer, the ice on the outside can seem like it is sparkling!!

Dorothy Must Die series

Dorothy Must Die
By: Danielle Paige

I just finished the fourth book of the Dorothy Must Die series. The series is overall amazing. Danielle Paige, author of the Dorothy Must Die series, incorporated the original Oz characters from Frank Baum's books(Wizard of Oz volumes). There are also multiple prequel novellas about the many characters portrayed in the Dorothy Must Die series and how Oz came to be so twisted.

Paige provides a twist to the classic Oz. The story takes place in the present as you follow Amy Gumm, protagonist, as she embarks on her journey in the twisted Oz and other classic places where she finds herself and her purpose in Oz's future through out the books.

I wish I could tell you more, but I wouldn't dare spoil the plot.

P.S. Dorothy's shoes in the book sure do sparkle. 

Allergies

Allergies 

The flowers outside are blowin'

The sinuses inside are flowin'

It's warming up 

Flowers in a cup 

Allergies are a bloomin' 

Allergies are hard 

Trees and flowers blowing far

Cough Cough Coughing Cough  

Bright blooming flowers await

Golden in the warming sun

Summer is nearing 

Rain is a falling 

Summer allergies are here

May and June are near 

Rain is falling sheer

Pollen is spreading 

Allergies are growing 

Sinuses shout "I'm here!"
