Blueberry Orange Pancakes (+cooking video!)
{ NEW COOKING VIDEO! }
Before I get started with this weeks Bachelorette recap, can we please take a moment to really soak up how lovely these pancakes look?! They are fluffy, flavorful and the perfect summer weekend treat. I love them so much! And this video shows you exactly how easy they are to make!
Now to the good stuff. Last nights episode of the Bachelorette! It kicks off with Becca having deep chats with Chris Harrison but since the show only uses Chris as filler, I fast forwarded through all of it. You know all Chris is thinking about is his golf game, so what’s the point? Then it turns to Blake who says that he’s no longer falling for Becca, he’s actually in LOVE with her. They’ve been on one real date at this point. Blake is strictly business. He knows how this show is suppose to come together and he’s wasting no time with the end goal. It’s quite overwhelming, even though he’s still my favorite.
The episode starts with Colton getting the first one-on-one date. Here’s the thing about Colton – Becca is super into him for one reason and one reason alone…he’s hot AF. And she mentions it 3789310 times throughout her date. Nothing about him being kind or intelligent or caring, nope, it’s strictly how attractive he is. At one point, she describes him as a Greek God. Little does she know that she will find out later that he’s still a virgin and act completely appalled by it. Anywho, they go sailing and conk fishing. And in the conk, you can pull out some slimy weiner type thing and eat it. That’s exactly what they do. It made my stomach turn. Anything that is phallic-shaped and that slimy should be left in the ocean, in my opinion. Leave it alone. At the end of the date, Colton mentions that he’s still a virgin and Becca has to take a minute to breathe by herself. It was that or she had some bad gas that she needed to pass on her own and the producers passed it off as her being offended by his virginity choices. Either way, she seems stressed out by it. Which I would be too. Taking someone’s virginity at 30 years old is quite the responsibility. And not one that I’m interested in.
Next date – Garrett. Garrett seems incredibly slow. He’s the guy who came in saying he’s obsessed with Chris Farley, and he honestly talks like Farley does in Tommy Boy. I found out pretty early on that Garrett liked a ton of offensive stuff on instagram posts like ones that mock women, posts about immigrants, and also school shootings. Maybe Trump was using Garrett’s instagram that day? Oh sh*t, things got political. Well, sounds like Garrett is not only a dumb dumb, but he’s an ass ass, too. But Becca is obsessed with him and the way he smiles like an adolescent boy. So I think he will definitely make it to the last two, maybe even the end. They go in a sea plane for the afternoon then out to dinner where Becca sports a long pony with 4,000 extensions in it. That’s probably why they didn’t do a ton on their date – getting those extensions in for dinner must have taken hours. The dinner is spent with Garrett talking badly about his ex-wife. I’m sure she’s LOOOOVING watching this show as Garrett tells the world that she has an anger problem. Supes fun. The date ends with them playing in the ocean in pitch black. No thank you. That’s how you get stung by a jelly fish and have to pee on each other during your romantic date. Garrett is probably into that, though.
The last one-on-one is Blake. Blake is my favorite but I can’t tell if it’s just because he’s from Colorado. That’s probably it. Blake is spiraling at this point, doubting everything with Becca. But he overcompensates with his dance moves and I dig it. I like white guys who dance erratically. It’s so uncommon which makes it quite mesmerizing to watch. Blake finally lets Becca know that he has trouble opening up because his parents got a divorce in high school and his mom was having an affair with his basketball coach. DAMNNNNNN. F*cked up. His mom is gonna be PISSED when she’s sees this episode. But for real, f*cked up. He then goes on to tell Becca that he’s in love with her and Becca tells producers that she feels the same way and wishes she could say it to him. At first this made me believe that Blake wins. But producers like to throw you off and make the main character look like a d*ck, so I’m guessing his doesn’t win. And I’m real sad about it. I haven’t seen or heard any spoilers, but I really hope Blake makes it all the way instead of creepy Garrett.
Lastly, it’s Wills, Leo and Jason on a date all together. I knew before they even went on their date that she was going to kick off Leo and Wills. They had no place there. Wills barely opens his eyes when he’s talking so it’s hard to know if he’s just bored with you or exhausted from having to hang out in the Bahamas. And Leo has more hair than Becca. I could never date someone who had more hair than me. I’m pretty sure I’m losing hair for no apparent reason so my envy and hatred for Leo would grow daily. And I’m sure Becca felt the same. All four of them play sand volleyball (my nightmare) then talk with Becca. Leo is scrambling and kissing her as much as possible. So she dumps his ass. Then Wills barely opens his mouth to talk, so she dumps his ass. Which means Jason gets to go to hometown dates. Leo doesn’t seem that sad probably because he has his stuntman and soft porn career to go back to. But Wills is destroyed and he finally shows emotion for the first time the entire season. He cries a lot. It’s quite upsetting. I liked Wills. He seems chill AF.
So now we are down to Colton, Jason, Garrett and Blake. I think Colton goes home next. Then Jason. Then I think Garrett wins. But not to worry, Blake is probably getting 1000 DMs a day at this point and getting hit on daily at Orange Theory here in Denver. He’ll be fine. Who do YOU think wins? Don’t tell me any spoilers, please! I’ve worked hard to not find out spoilers this year.
