Once Upon a Smoothie

Fun back story for the week:  At my parents' house, the only reason one would ever own a blender is to feed bum lambs.  Seriously. (don't ask)  Bad news when you live there and want a milkshake, good news when you don't live there and they've given up on the bum-lambs-as-money-making-venture.  So we in inherited the clearly never-again-necessary blender a few years ago . . . and it promptly rusted itself beyond usability last summer as I tried to make some frozen hot chocolate.  Heart breaking, let me tell you.  Anyway, the blender has finally been replaced and I'm thoroughly enjoying it with a semi-health kick of tons of smoothies (and a few milkshakes).  So tonight my drink of choice for our little game is a lovely blueberry-banana smoothie courtesy of pinterest.  Yay!


~ Previously: I kind of expected Snow to get her hair back, not gonna lie.

~ Yay, a Grumpy-sode!

~ Why do they need to "prove themselves to the prince"?

~ Well that little mini-seizure can't be good.

~ Why does the town suddenly look like a war zone?

~ PINNOCHIO!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

~ TEAM EMMOCHIO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

~ Regina you have sooooooooooooo not forgotten where you got that hat.

~ Regina calls him Charming, Snow calls him David.  So interesting . . .

~ So the Whomping Willow apparently has a cousin.

~ It's almost frightening how good she is at playing evil Regina and not-evil-younger Regina.

~ I wonder what happened before if anyone tried to leave.  We never saw anyone actually succeed, you know.

~ He is so not going to have a plan in two hours.

~ Throwing candles in empty fireplaces is a well known way of magically lighting them. :-)

~ I kind of figured Jiminy would try to talk to her.

~ Aawwwwwww, Snow's in her Disney dress!  (sort of)

~ I think I like it better all blue like that.

~ Wait . . . last season Snow as an adult still thought Daniel left Regina . . . PLOT HOLE!

~ or . . . psych.  Blargh.

~ Betcha Rumplilocks gave her the book.  Her last name is Mills, after all.

~ "You need your mommy's help."  Ouch.

~ So FTL DOES still exist!!  I knew it!!

~ Turning green?  Wizard of Oz reference?

~ This Cinderella commercial has me wanting to see what's happening with CinderAshley&Co.  I know hers was a pretty minor storyline last season, but I really liked it.

~ Oh, come on.  Rumplilocks is not a hard name to say.

~ I really like Regina's dress here.  And her hair.

~ Just how much does Rumplilocks know?

~ TOGETHER?!?!?!?!?!  What does that mean?!?!?

~ The prince doesn't know him, but David remembers reading Alice in Wonderland.  That's gotta be trippy.

~ You know, Rumplilocks, a locked door might make that closed sign a little more effective. :-)

~ Charming has such a cute smile . . . *melt*

~ I wonder is Rumplilocks would lose his memory . . .

~ Well that escalated quickly.

~ Regina doesn't want to use magic and end up like her mother.  Now that's irony, right there.

~ Purple eyes . . . I think Regina just turned into an omnivore Twilight vampire . . . lol.

~ "Gramps."  Ha!  Somewhere out there the tv gods heard my pleas.  Too bad Charming didn't hear/react to it.  Now if he'll just call Regina grandma . . .

~ I love Ruby.

~ CALL HER GRANDMA HENRY!!! CALL HER GRANDMA!!!!!!!

~ Charming/Hatter showdown = a lot of hot anger. :-)

~ If he's running away shouldn't he have at least shut his door?  Very odd that Regina didn't even go after him.

~ Ah, so the Whomping Not-Willow made the trip over too.

~ Just call her grandma already Henry.  That'll show her.

~ "I don't want to be you."  Now that's ominous considering the last flashback.

~ That is a sparkly dress, but those hip flouncy thingies are slightly ridiculous.

~ Pushing your mother into a mirror/portal which immediately breaks has got to be worse than seven years of bad luck.

~ I'm a little surprised that everyone wants to leave knowing they'll forget everyone.

~ Great speech, Charming!

~ "As we shall do again."  Shall is such a good word.  It's a shame you don't hear it much outside of fairy tale-ish/Shakespeare-ish stuff.

~ So I didn't mention it earlier, but the shot of the Blue Fairy (who apparently goes by Blue?  weird.) reminded me - Whale's crack about are the nuns still nuns or can they date now?  First, wouldn't everyone remember that the nuns are fairies and understand that they're still off limits? (at least I think they are.)  And could that maybe be a clue about who he is?  Except I can't really think of any playboy-type fairy tale characters.  I would guess the Wolf in a predator/serial dater/womanizer sort of way if Red hadn't already claimed that role.

~ I love Rumplilocks' FTL voice.

~ "Someday you'll do something for me."  I wonder what it is . . . or if she's even done it yet . . .

~ Either this is a trick or she's had quite the little epiphany with that flashback.

~ 98% sure I don't believe the line about wanting to redeem herself.

~ Your mother-in-law asks you to take care of her son, who is also your grandson.  Lulz.  I'm adding any trippy family moments like that to the drinking game.

~ Bra'tac found Pinnochio!!!  Well . . . only sort of it looks like.  But I love them both so, YAY!!!

~ Keeping the book . . . make that 98.78% sure the redeeming myself line was crap.

~ CALL HIM GRANDPA HENRY!!  CALL HIM GRANDPA!!

~ Well that's not good.

~ Is that Snow's castle in the distance?  Looks kind of like it, on the shore and all.

~ Well, hello step-great-great-grandma.  You haven't aged a bit.

~ WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!  GAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And on that note, I suppose we'll all spend the next week wondering how Cora got from the wherever the mirror portal sent her to this corner of . . . well, whatever realm Mulan and Aurora are in.  And why she's in the dungeon there.
