Style Update

Shows to Binge Watch

• Home Free just started.  Love this show on Fox...it's reality show where people are buildilng/reno houses and the final winner wins a dream home.  The catch is each week they work on a home and a person is elimanted...the elimanted person ends up getting the home for a week.  Everyone is a winner!

Random Updates

• You know I've been looking for a new house, maybe I should buy David Arquette's house in LA.  But you'd think for 8.5 million you wouldn't have a shared vanity in the bathroom
• Justin Bieber got into a brawl after game 3 of the NBA finals..not sure who started it
• Opening box office numbers for Finding Dory-- $136 million, knocking Shrek the Third from top animated opening weekend at $121 million
• The Khloe Kardashian paternity issue is rising again, amid rumors that the prison guard overheard Khole begging OJ to take a test and he refused.  Both of Robert's ex-wives says he confessed Khole isn't his. She doesn't look like her sister, but I don't look like my sister either.  Here is a side by side of her and rumored fathers, as well as Robert Kardashian

L to R-OJ Simpson, Alex Rodan (Kris' hairdresser), Lionel Richie, Robert Kardashian, Khloe)

Trader Joe's Update

(Random, yes!  Needed, yes!  Since we have a new TJ that opened, I'll share my favorites)

• I don't love a lot of the pre-made sandwich stuff at TJ's (I'd go so far as to say I hate the sushi) but the tofu spring rolls are yum-o...it could be the peanut sauce that makes it.
