I (Jeni) don’t eat much fast food anymore… but I will always love Taco Bell. Always! I have some upsetting news, friends. Take a deep breath. You have 1 week left to enjoy some favorites. Taco Bell is getting rid of 9 of their menu items, to “make ordering easier” and “make room for new items.” Easy Shmeasy! New Shmew! Leave the menu alone!!! Here’s what’s leaving
- chips & salsa
- Beefy Mini Quesadilla
- Chipotle Chicken Loaded Griller
- Double Decker Taco (nooooo!!!!! My FAVORITE!)
- Cool Ranch Doritos Locos Taco
- Fiery Doritos Locos Taco
- Double Tostada
- Power Menu Burrito
- XXXL Grilled Stuft Burrito
Which of the menu items leaving will you miss most?
Are you a horror movie fan? Even if you aren’t, do you love Halloween movies? Freeform has released their full programming schedule for the 31 Nights of Halloween! If you aren’t familiar with this annual tradition, Freeform offers a schedule of family-friendly Halloween-themed movies throughout October.
This year, Hocus Pocus will play 27 times! Plus, The Nightmare Before Christmas, and The Addams Family will be showing. The Scream trilogy is my favorite, though. See go HERE to read more about it!
What are your favorite scary, horror or Halloween movies?
These adorable Birthday Calendar Boards are only around $20 right now! There are several different options for styles, and they would totally make a great gift!
SILLY SCENTS!! This 10 pack of dual-tip pens (so you get 20 different colors and scents!) is only $5.99! Go HERE to see the scents!
The new Lady & the Tramp live action trailer is out! The dogs are pretty cute… even if I (Sarah) am not a fan of dogs in general!
What do you think? Will you go see it?
Ha! This is a pretty cute mug, right!? It’s a pancakes & syrup mug! Too bad every time you put your mouth to it, you won’t TASTE pancakes and syrup. But if you (or someone you know) is a fan of pancakes… this is the mug for them!
What’s your favorite breakfast food?
Did you know that you can get a beautiful FLORAL Instant Pot!? You can! In two different designs! As popular as these are, we are both surprised that there aren’t more options and designs. But these are really, really cute… and on sale, which makes them even cuter! 🙂
What do you make in your Instant Pot?
It’s still pretty hot out there, all over the country. Which means it’s still Slurpee season! 🙂 7-Eleven just released a new flavor – Nerds! It’s a mix of Strawberry and Grape Nerds flavors, so it’s sweet and tangy. Sounds pretty refreshing, too! Mmmmm!
What’s your favorite Slurpee flavor?
These might be the most unique socks I (Sarah) have ever seen. They are Sheer Mesh Flower Socks and the majority of them are see-through, with the exception of the pretty flowers! There are some other versions with characters and foods on them, but these are my favorite, for sure!
Socks or slippers? Which type are you?
HELLO, Delicious beauty!! This Pizza in a Pan recipe is seriously amazing, you guys. I (Jeni) figured it might just taste like spaghetti – but it doesn’t! It tastes like pepperoni pizza! And even better, you probably have most of the ingredients at home already. Skip delivery and make this. You’ll be happy you did! I’m making it again tonight for dinner 
What are your dinner plans tonight?
Don’t forget to join us every Wednesday evening at 4pm EST for Happy Hour!

The sheer mesh flower sock are amazing. I am checking them out now online.
The birthday calendar boards are a pretty way to remind me of all the birthdays in my family. And who doesn’t love a good Slurpee? I need to check out that new flavor.
We don’t eat at Taco Bell a lot, but the Doritos tacos will be surely missed by most of us. When I wear slippers, I almost always wear socks. Is that weird?
I was never really a Taco Bell aficionado but my son sure is. I’ll have to tell him about this. And, omg, the meme with the public phone – love it!
My favorite breakfast is eggs, spinach and waffles. I also love bagels and cream cheese.
I try to stay away from fast food, too. Taco Bell always brings me back, though. I can’t say no to their delicious, quasi-Mexican food.
What?? I Hope they have some form of the grilled stuffed burrito. I love that. Maybe they can just make it Non XL. I’d be fine with that.
I must try the Nerds slurpee. I’ll check out the 711 near us.
I think my husband is in a serious depression over the exit of the double decker taco. He may have even shed a tear when he got the news. I am signing up for Disney + just so I can watch the new Lady and the Tramp. I hope it’s a good one!
OK I 100% need that birthday hanger! I am always forgetting peoples big days and have to make up for it. I would probably need to hang it right in front of where I sit lol.
I’ll have to check out some of the Halloween movies they’re airing on Freeform. Hopefully there will be lots of classics!
I’m glad the Taco Bell Power Menu items are staying. They are my favorite!!
I am so excited that Halloween movie season is here! It is so fun to lay down and watch a good movie when it is cool out! Love it!
I didn’t realize the trailer for Lady and the Tramp was already out! Gah! K, gotta check it out when hubby gets home – I wanna watch it with him!
Yum! That Pizza in A Pan is really mouthwatering! I love to have this soon! And that pancakes & syrup mug is really cute!
Wait Ive never seen the trailer for Lady and he Tramp.
That mug is so cute for pancake lovers and also the floral instant pot. I have an aunt that would seriously love both!
I am so excited for Halloween and all the movies. It’s one of my favorite times of the year. They always have such great movies on.
Thanks Fairy Godmother, perfect meme! So on the Taco Bell thing, nothing they’re removing is something I generally eat there. I am a picky gal, but I do love a soft taco from Taco Bell – they are the bestest ever! ARound our area Taco Bell is always attached to KFC, so I do get both options – mashed potatoes from KFC and a supreme soft taco from Taco Bell. YUMMMY
I am not a fan of horror movies but my cousin loves them. I do love Disney movies and I look forward to seeing Lady and the Tramp.
Oh man I love the Ranch tacos. My favorite breakfast is sausage and pancakes. I also like when my daughter make sausage and biscuits.
Lady & the Tramp is a movie that my kid will be happy to watch! Love the trailer!
These are really great finds! Love that birthday calendar board.
Saturday night is pizza night over here and that pizza in a pan sure looks delish! Will save the recipe and will add it on the menu. Nom!
How dare they take away the cool ranch taco! That item has made me return to Taco Bell.
Those sweet scents of markers sound good. We just saw their line of gross scents, which were pretty crazy! They had dirty sponge, dirty work boots, and other gross stuff!
I need to get one of those Instant Pots! They look so pretty, I love floral theme!
I’m sad that Taco Bell is taking away a bunch of my favorites too. I’m glad they aren’t taking away their slushees though. They are delicious.
I’m going to have to find a 7-11 with the nerds slurped. They need it where you can add real nerds to it too. I get a nerd slush at Sonic from time to time. Yum!
I love those sheer mesh flower socks! So cute! I also think I’d love to have a floral design instant pot. It would look so pretty on my kitchen counter!
