Just some Real Housewives of NJ TV thoughts

Season 5 Episode 16 – The Blonde Drops a Bombshell…

Well everyone is tired of twitter attacks… we got it.  Can this story line end?

Richie Wakile can rock a pair of colored glasses like no other man.

During the lunch Teresa, Melissa, Joe, and the parents (minus Giacinto Gorga) they had amazing seafood platter thing and omg it looked soo good… that lobster on top, whoa!  I really want to see everyone get along like that.

I LOVED Teresa’s blue jacket outfit and bag… unfortunately it’s not up at http://www.bigblondehair.com/real-housewives/rhonj/ where I can usually find out where the housewives get their clothes.

Were Joe and Rosie not hilarious together?!  They really should hang out a lot more.  “if we both planted our eggs”  “do I have eggs to or what do I have?” ahh I died.

I loved when Kathy yelled!  “Start pickin them up I can’t do this right now!!” I could relate completely.  I will seriously purchase Kathy’s cannoli kits totally… as long as they aren’t like $40 – oh I just looked and they are $40… ehh I don’t know Kath.  Kinda steep.

I like the awkwardness surrounding Melissa’s singing.

Caroline Manzo has a migraine… I REALLY love how human Caroline is.

I love Jacqueline and Chris Laurita’s relationship – they are so great!

I was so proud of Jacqueline after speaking.  I really love her and her story.

UGH, the episode ended with Penny (the new Kim G.)  Why is this a story line… also her hair is so fake it drives me crazy.  There’s no way she just happened to be there (I know it’s reality tv).  And the previews for next episode has more Penny ughh.

Thursday Thoughts

Today is Thursday and it’s time to link up with Jen at Ramblings of a Suburban Mom…

I framed NF’s first painting last night.  I love it!

Big Brother started last night and I wasn’t intending on watching it… but since it was on when The American Baking Competition usually is on – I watched it.  Annddd that’s all I need is one episode and I’m hooked.

My early favorite is Rachel’s sister, Elissa.  Rachel is from one of the only other seasons I’ve seen.  I watched that season while I was pregnant.

That’s Rachel, Elissa’s sister.  The most entertaining person on big brother ever (at least that I know of).  And they look A LOT alike.

LAST night, after big brother, was The American Baking Competition… my newest favorite summer time show (I hope they have another season!!!).  My three favorite contestants right now… (yeah I have three)…

Elaine Francisco, James Reddick, and Francine Bryson.  I would be happy if any of these three won the competition.  Ah even Darlene Pawlukowsky winning would make me happy.  So the show’s down to  5 people and I just realized that I’d be happy with anyone winning except Brian Emmett.  Sorry Brian if you’re reading this (the contestants have been finding my blog).

Last night James Reddick made a chocolate souffle in the technical bake challenge.  The recipe for it is here.  He had never made one before and he won the challenge… I was SO happy for him!  He would have been star baker if he hadn’t totally screwed up the show stopper.  You can find all the recipes that CBS.com puts up here.

On the Bachelorette this week… Ben was sent home.  Bye bye Ben!

Anyone read the Real Housewives blogs?  The comments are BRUTAL!  I read the blogs sometimes and then think about commenting… then I read some of the comments and I think whoaaaaaaaaa… don’t really wanna jump into that cyber cat fight!  Why are they so harsh and crazy?!  People are wayyyy to into Teresa’s drama.
