My Picks: All things Entertainment!


Linking up again this week with the ladies of The Blended Blog to share my recommendations on movies, tv, and books!  With Summer fast approaching, it's the perfect time to share!! Summer reading anyone??  Movies and tv show to binge watch on those dreaded rainy days?

I tend to watch way more TV than I do movies, but I just recently saw The Greatest Showman and can't recommend it enough!!  I LOVED it!  I rented on cable and had it for 48 hours...I may or may not have watched it five times!!  LOL  I laughed, cried, I cheered, I sang along!!  Get the whole family together and grab the popcorn...you're gonna love it.



Another movie I just, just saw is Tully.  I can't say I recommend it, but I wanted to share it here to see if anyone else saw it and what your thoughts are?  I didn't hate, hate it...but I didn't like it either.  And it was just weird...so I can't even really describe it.

I'm more of a TV girl!!  And since summer is coming, I'm going to recommend my Summer Shows!  One of them is Younger.


But mostly I just love me some Peter Hermann!!


Younger is about a woman in her 40's who lies about her age to get a job in publishing, and the antics that ensue because of this!  Not a very good description really...but just watch!!  It's on TV Land and returns on June 5th!!  Binge watch now to catch up!

Suits on USA used to be a summer show, but this season, got all screwed up due to the Royal Wedding.  Meghan Markle is a star in the show.  I've been watching since season one and love it.   It's kind of another show about mistaken identity (I guess that's my thing!), all centered around lawyers at a big NYC firm.



More than movies and TV, in the summer I read the most.  Probably because during the school year, I don't get to as much.  My book quota though is pretty up there this year thanks to audio books.  My top for the year though have got to be, The Wife Between Us (read more about it here!), and  Something Like Happy (here!) I've been trying to find the happy in every day this year!!





















I am currently reading and enjoying The Address by Fiona Davis and Girl  Wash Your Face by Rachel Hollis.  Check back for my reviews!!

These link-ups are always so fun!!  Can't wait to get great movie, tv and book recommendations!!

TBB Asks: Entertainment

It's been a while since I've last blogged, but it's always TBB Asks that pulls me back in.  And today might be my most favorite topic!!  We're talking all things entertainment.



1. Comedy or Drama?  I like them both equally, honestly, but I tend to do more drama!

2. Fiction or Nonfiction?  Nine times outta ten, it's fiction.  But just on Friday a nonfiction title, The Paradox of Choice, was recommended to be and I totally intend on picking it up!


3. Movies in the Theater or at home.  I tend to watch more at home, but I do like to go to my town's little theater every few months.

4.  Musical or Play?  Definitely MUSICAL.  I recently saw Once and totally and completely loved it!



5. Which Meal of the Day is your Favorite to Eat Out?
Can I say any and all?  I am not really much of a cook, and hardly ever go food shopping so I eat out...A LOT!


6. Favorite Book Ever: WONDER... I've blogged about it lots!  {herehere, and here!}



7. Game Night?  HELL YES!!!  Usually at my house! So much fun!!  Always lots of laughs!


8. Favorite Outdoor Game to Play?
I don't really have one.  I like to just lay out in the sun reading my book or listening to music, while everyone else around me plays.

9.  Favorite TV Series Ever?
That's so HARD!!  Ever, Ever??  The adult in me wants to say Parenthood and the teen in my want to say Dawson's Creek!  HA!!  Favorite Sitcom: The Office!



10.Sitcoms Now or Sitcoms then?
I was a big fan of sitcoms when I was growing up.  Totally a TGIF fan, and Growing Pains and Webster, And Diffe'rent Strokes and Valerie's Family.  I even watched the Golden Girls and Empty Nest on Saturday nights with my Nana.  I don't really watch to many sitcoms today, I lean more toward the drama, but I am actually really liking the Roseanne reboot and I LOVE, LOVE LOVE Splitting Up Together!!

11. Miniature Golf or Bowling?
I'm absolutely awful at both!  I haven't played miniature golf in years and years, but I remember it being lots of fun.

12.  Favorite movie theater candy?  Definitely Reese's Pieces!  YUM!

13.  How do you like your popcorn? Lightly salted and lightly buttered.

14. 3D Movies?  Nah

15.  Favorite Genre of Books to Read?  Any type of fiction!
One of my most faves I've read this year!

I love these posts.  And so enjoy reading all the responses!  Head to The Blended Blog to link up with us!!


Make your Monday a great one!  And plan to link up with all us all month long as we talk all aspects of entertaining!!!!
