Does anyone remember Josiah's address from the helicopter article? I'm pretty sure a street was listed.
Here's what I found about the helicopter landing in a neighborhood in Lowell:
The home is in a residential neighborhood on E. Monroe Ave., just west of Ward Nail Park.” But they also noted that it’s “not illegal” to land in the neighborhood.

Many times we've seen Paul ask a pointed question about a technique, but not provide an answer when the baker is puzzled. This time, he very obviously let Alice know that whisking with a wooden spoon was not what she should be doing.

Joy has posted a few IG stories today about heading to Colorado. The second story showed them with some of the older lost boys in tow, eating at Braum's and shopping for "all things camo" at Bass Pro Shops. So, if a lot of the family is in California visiting Jing, and the lost boys are with Austin and Joy, where is Hannie?

Shaun Cassidy was the only teen heartthrob that I fell for. I fell HARD. My sister reminds me that I made our family leave our weekend cabin in Big Bear Lake for home (2.5 hour drive) early enough so we could make it home for Hardy Boys. I think it started at 7:00pm PST? Bought all his albums.

After the last two over gimmicky weeks it was nice to get back to good ol desserts.
I know Alice can be a bit much but I love that instead of being upset over not being SB that she just hoped Steph would now know how good she was. THAT'S WHY I STILL WATCH!
Paul and Prue are being downright Savage with the comments here. I felt like the bakers couldn't win with the signature. Prue didn't want them overcomplicating things but God forbid they play it safe. Henry's tasted good but didn't look good, David looked good but didn't taste good. Oy.
I did like the technical. A good "lots of simple elements done precisely.". I'm just glad no one biffed it horribly.
Same with the showstoppers. I did worry for Henry since it did not look that appetizing but after the travesty of the last week boots I'm glad Priya's number was up.
Unless one of them royally screws up a Steph, David, Alice final is looking likely. I hope David gets an SB win soon. I don't see Michael or Rosie lasting, Henry could be a dark horse.
I still can't help but feel that something about this season feels off but I'm still enjoying the remaining bakers.
Here's an article from USA Today about this season emphasizing style over substance.

The Daily Mail captioned the photo of Meechelle and Jana, blindfolded and changing a diaper, as ‘one of them knows a lot about changing diapers.’
Casual readers might make the wrong assumption but all of us here know that the correct answer is JANA! 😐
Did they say it was Jana? Because it was actually Lana Swanson 'competing' against Michelle.
Just looked at the article - the Daily Mail did indeed say it was Jana blindfolded next to Michelle, but it was Lana. You can tell by what she is wearing, especially with the long necklace. She does look like Jana, though!

I’d forgotten that it’s only recently that college stadiums have allowed alcohol sales. We were at Vandy when visiting Georgia was upset. We were surrounded by very drunk Georgia students/alums who had done lots of pre-game drinking on the bus ride down. Fun to needle them - they were good sports about it!

I looked on the Razorback Stadium website, and couldn't find if there is a designated 'family zone' which would be free of alcohol (some stadiums have those areas). It would make sense that they would want to sit there, if available.
I am delighted that U of Arkansas paid the visiting team, San Jose State University, $1.5 million to come play. Arkansas expected to beat up SJSU, but instead, lost to them 31-24. SJSU plays in the Mountain West Conference, not a powerhouse conference, but still, it does include BYU and the Air Force Academy, among other colleges.
SJSU has played in 15 'revenue' games since 2010, going 0-14 until the win against Arkansas. They have generated $10.4 million, which has gone into their sports budget. I love the humiliation Arkansas has to feel.

Jinger posted a story today and held up a card that said Universal Orlando Resort.

I was actually impressed by the choice of song for Jinger's birthday port for Jeremy. Not a hymn or anthem by a Christian artist, but an interesting song called Nine Million Bicycles by Katie Melua, a Georgian-British singer-songwriter.

There's a really good documentary called Tim's Vermeer which shows one man's attempt to recreate Vermeer's photo realism by using optical devices. It's available to rent on Amazon for $2.99. I saw it in the theater a couple years ago - it is fascinating.

I had looked up the event when I saw Jer's story. It's a fundraiser for the Boys and Girls Club of Malibu. The website noted it is a paparazzi-free zone. One day admission is only $15, $20 at the door.

I love Derry Girls. My husband's parents immigrated from Ireland in 1950. His 95-year old aunt still lives in Dublin. She is like Uncle Collum, with the ability to talk and talk and talk about anything. It's quite exhausting being around her! The show does a great job of giving us the quirky characters in just the right dose.

It might actually be Jill R...I'm sure I've seen the original of this somewhere along the line, and there are not that many other people out there whose videos on such matters I'd be likely to just randomly come across.
It's Christine Weick. Here is an article about her original rant.

She also posted a video on her IG story yesterday that showed the merry-go-around ride, and it looked like Ben standing next to Spurg on a horse.

Same here...we were stationed in Scotland from 1989-1991. Recently, though, someone in one of my Facebook groups was talking about donating plasma as an option as apparently there are people who can donate plasma but not blood. I still need to look into that.
I will definitely look into that!
-
I really wish I could donated blood, but since I lived in the UK for a year (fall 1985-fall 1986), I am not allowed. Too much risk of Mad Cow Disease being passed through the blood.

Re: Nicknames. My grandmother’s given name was Bertha. Known as Bert for 50 years. Husband number 3 thought it was short for Roberta so began calling her Robbie. That stuck to the day she died.

When I was newly married (35 years now!), my husband and I attended a talk at our church given by a couple married about 25 years. I'll never forget the wife saying she would wake before her husband, in order to put on make-up so what she presented to him when he woke would be her fully made-up self.
I was appalled. I think that was the seed of cynicism planted in me about teachings that are religion-adjacent. I should have let the church leadership know how ridiculous that talk was.

I just googled Tabitha Robertson. Appears she is the Home School Director at Temple Baptist Academy, a Christian school in Powell, TN. Tabitha heads up the arm of the school that supports those that home school. Her photo is quite good. Nothing on the website that I can find that gives any info on her as the Home School Director.

2 questions:
1) What were they eating that was in the container that says “Pearls” on it?
2) WTH would you wear earrings like that to go hiking??
Pearls packages olives.

They loves theirs with potatoes. I just can't with her. UGH!!!
I think she used the correct word here. If you're saying she should have written "their's", that would be incorrect. My biggest grammar gripe is the misuse of "it's" for the possessive "its". I'll even write an email to a reporter if they write "it's" when they mean to say the possessive. The only time "it's" can be used is if you can say "it is" in the place of "it's". And "its'" is never used.

If nothing else, I wish Jill was aware that killing bees is not a good thing. They will never sting unless they are threatened or provoked (they themselves will die if they do), and this planet needs every bee it can get right now. 😢
Lots and lots of people are making comments like yours on her IG post.

The Duggalos: Jinger and the Holy Goalie
in Counting On
I just looked at myself since you said that. You're right - I read so many negative comments over the weekend.
There is this recent post: "Oh - you erased all your 'even bigots like your donuts' comments - hard to look in the mirror huh?"
