What's with this kid and knives? And what's up the the "adult" in the room? This is just very strange. I hope I don't see him on the ID channel in a few years.

Did the video show that Jeremy was home during the entire video? He may have been out doing whatever job he does. He may have been sitting in the living room the entire time. Jinger may have decided to do this video alone. Who knows? I just don't want to jump to any conclusions unfairly.

Temptations dinnerware is an odd "selling point". They are sold on QVC, and, based on passed experience, I can firmly state that they chip very easily and are certainly not anything special. I got rid of all of mine. Janelle used to show her food on Temptations plates and bowls, and they were always chipped. I had a baker crack in the oven and ended up with chicken juice all over the oven and floor. I just think it is interesting that she chose to mention Temptations in the ad. I have never seen the brand of the dishes in the cupboards mentioned before.

Are Mennonite dresses in style now? I don't think I have ever seen anyone besides a Mennonite lady wear that style. It doesn't seem that that yellow dress would have a very wide customer base.

I wouldn't be surprised if Jill wore out her welcome on these cruises. Maybe she doesn't have a spot on purpose and her name is on the do-not-include list. I'm wondering if the company has received complaints about her advertising content and they figure she is just too much or too dangerous to tolerate any longer. "Already full, sorry" would be an easy way to avoid the problem.

My cats used to start crying very early in the morning (1AM), and one would jump on me demanding to be fed. I solved the problem by getting an automatic feeder. One of my cats has no teeth, and she will throw up if she eats too much at a time, so my feeder is set for a small amount of kibble every 6 hours every day. No more crying or jumping during the night. The midnight feeding keeps them happy, and keeps me happy, too. They know exactly when the feeder is going to drop food, and they know they will always be fed. And I know exactly how much they are eating. One of the best purchases I have ever made. (My toothless cat LOVES her kibble, and will throw up if she eats soft food. They both can hear the feeder start to drop food before I do.)

I don't use my KitchenAid for baking, but I do use it with the attachments for grating cheese or spiralizing. The ice shaver attachment is pretty good, too. If anyone makes their own pasta, the sheeter works well. I have used the apple peeler, too. What I respect about KA is that they have been in business for many, many years, and all of their attachments fit any model if their mixer. They may have changed the actual mixer, but the attachment hub has always remained the same. New attachments will fit any mixer they have ever made. (Unlike cell phone chargers...) Not that Jill would EVER make pasta or peel apples for pie. Sprialize zucchini?? Totally out of her vocabulary.

I would not be at all surprised if Jill is posting these poems herself and then forcing a picture to post. She MUST be the center of attention at all times.

A "one-size-fits-all" ring? How does that work? I find even the stretchy rings too big. And what an odd thing to pair with an "outfit" that you are selling. Was she selling just the sweater in this presentation?

I think I heard a warning about raw milk. I wasn't really listening, but I think it had to do with bird flu. They were telling people to avoid raw milk since bird flu is affecting cows. Maybe not, but I think that is what I heard.

I am afraid it is Plexus itself that is pushing the advertising boundaries. That chart Jill posted looked to me like it might be something the company gave her to use. I don't understand why no one is paying more attention to these companies. I feel very sad for people who are paying a lot of money to find a "cure all", and that there are people like Jill who are ready to take their money.

This looks like it could be medical advise to me. Unless it has a high alcohol content, I very much doubt that it would help depression, or allergies of any kind. Plexus is just like the old patent medicines without the alcohol or opium. I'm not sure of the ingredients, so I don't know how much actual harm it can do (except convincing people to stop taking doctor-ordered meds or treatment), but I am quite sure it doesn't "cure" anything. It does take people's money, and I'm afraid that many people are sacrificing their real meds or treatments to pay for it.

Linens, I think. Maybe books.

I have a friend that has an absolutely gorgeous kitchen. A magazine wanted to show it, until they found out that she has never used it, and, in fact, she does not cook at all. She and her husband eat out every meal. She uses her oven for storage. But she still spent thousands on a kitchen remodel.

Perhaps they all got sick from off-brand ice cream that they stored incorrectly.
