    🥤 Cool Out Beverage Company: Sip & Chill

    I had the chance to try out the Cool Out Beverage Company, and when I tell you these drinks hit the spot — whew! 😋 Their flavors are a vibe all on their own: Strawberry Sunrise, Coolata, Pineapple Dream, and Mango Tango.
    Each one is tropical, refreshing, and reasonably priced — perfect for cooling out after a long day. Trust me, you’ll want to grab them for your next picnic or chill day on the patio!

    🎬 Cece on the Scene: Netflix Pick of the Week

    This week’s Netflix highlight is The Woman in Cabin 10. If you’re into thrillers, suspense, and “wait, what just happened?” moments, this one’s for you.
    I read the book (gave it a solid 4 out of 5 ⭐️), and the movie held its own — also a 4 out of 5 in my bookworm opinion! 📚 Books usually have that extra magic, but this adaptation definitely didn’t disappoint. Pop some popcorn and add it to your movie night list!

  • Cece On the Scenes: “Untold: The Liver King” – A Raw Dose of Reality

    Hey hey, everyone! You know I love diving into stories – whether they’re powerful, controversial, or just downright wild. So for this week’s Cece On the Scenes, I ended up watching something unexpected: “Untold: The Liver King.” And whew… let me just say, I still don’t know why I pressed play – maybe it’s the journalist in me, always curious about people’s journeys. But y’all… this one took me for a ride.

    Let’s rewind a little. If you’re not familiar, the Liver King – real name Brian Johnson – blew up online for his primal lifestyle, eating raw liver, testicles (yes, you read that right), and living like a modern-day caveman. I mean, imagine someone mixing fitness influencer vibes with prehistoric grit – that’s him. It was giving Neanderthal meets Instagram fitness guru.

    At first, I was just cringing through scenes of him chomping down raw organs. But as a storyteller, I pushed past the shock factor. I wanted to understand why he lived like this and what message he was trying to send. He preached ancestral living: strength, discipline, and getting back to nature. Okay, cool. But here’s the twist – he also claimed his shredded body was 100% natural. No steroids. No enhancements.

    Then came the bombshell. He was on steroids. Expensive ones. And fans who believed in his “all-natural” lifestyle felt betrayed. Honestly, so did I. Not because I wanted to eat like him (you will never catch me in the woods gnawing on liver), but because I hoped his truth was real.

    Still, it made me think. What do people trade for fame? For influence? Was it all a performance or did he start with good intentions and get lost along the way?

    And what’s even more layered – it’s not just him. His whole family was in on this rugged, primal brand. It makes you question where authenticity ends and marketing begins.

    Would I live like that? Absolutely not. I need a bed, a shower, and some lemon pepper wings, okay? But it was thought-provoking. It’s one of those documentaries that makes you sit back and reflect on identity, pressure, and the stories people build for the world.

    So now I’m asking you – have you watched it? What did you think? Was it eye-opening or just too bizarre to take seriously?

    Until next time, stay curious.
