"I am so *@&#*($ embarrassed." Becca says to Arie. And we felt it. We really felt it. As he waited on all the cameramen to walk into the room before he broke her heart right there on National TV. "I hope you get what you want." She says as she gets the courage to look him in the eye, "It's clearly not me." Then, like any self respecting woman would when faced with cameras in her face, she says out loud to no one in particular, "Okay. I'm done," and leaves to pack her bags.

A Christmas Prince is Both The Best and Worst Movie I Have Ever Seen

I am a sucker for a holiday-esque Hallmark type movie, and let me tell you that the new Netflix Original A Christmas Prince did not disappoint, and yet disappointed all at the same time. It actually took me a couple days of processing to really bring you all the thoughts I had while watching it. This movie is good fun. The plot is predictable at best, and yeah it's beyond cheesy, but who even cares? You will watch this tonight and probably three times before Christmas. Why is he a Christmas prince?

Delicious Food

It's the one day of the year where we can believe in the paranormal. Believe in ghosts and zombies, and princess firefighters. Believe that there are scary things that go 'bump' in the night, and that men cursed to wear hockey masks for all eternity are going to come back from the dead to get'cha.
