Ramona has said that she purchased the house before she married Mario. Not sure how the issue of the NY city apartment was settled. Maybe she bought out his share of the equity.

I'm sure the proceeds from selling all that dog bling is funneled right back into the rescue and if she's like most of us in rescue, she's reaching into her own pocket to help off-set expenses. But that doesn't preclude the point I feel LVP wanted to 'play' boutique owner and rescue wasn't the initial priority. And I say that because the store is more about the merchandise than the dogs who need new homes. I do also believe she's truly an animal lover and gives her own pets an amazing life. In my rescue community I'm surrounded by people who are genuine advocates but their rescue efforts are all about themselves. But as long as animals are being saved, it's all good.

Weighing in on the Lucy story. I run a rescue and our contract requires an adopter to return the animal to us if it's not working out. We will relinquish our claim and allow them to rehome the pet with a friend or relative. The main thing is we don't want the dog or cat to end up at a kill shelter. We've had adopters who've dumped dogs at the local pound without bothering to contact us. The shelter traced the dog back to us via the microchip and we've retrieved it. Seems to me that Dorit did tell Lisa she was rehoming the dog and Lisa didn't insist on it being returned to Vanderpump Dogs - and it only became an issue when the dog ended up at a shelter. I'm also guessing that Dorit wanted that particular dog based on looks and LVP didn't apply the same adoption application standards because of their friendship. Another LA rescue had a similar issue with Chris Pratt and Anna Faris who surrendered their dog to a kill shelter instead of returning it to the rescue. There was also a $5K penalty in that contract which Chris and Anna ended up paying. From the prospect of someone who runs a rescue, Lisa has a retail pet store that also offers a few dogs for adoption. The main business appears to be a pet boutique. Anyone here operating that way would be considered a puppy flipper not a rescuer. Just saying. While they quarantine and observe the dog for a week, which is a good thing, I didn't hear anything about them being in a foster home. A dog's health and behavior is best observed if they're in a home environment instead of a cage. I like Kyle's new haircut. Dorit looks like she's attempting to out-logo Erika. LOL

Eva, here's a suggestion for the third time you go dress shopping - don't take the cameras along, that way you're not obligated to include any of the other housewives. Hard to believe Gregg's kids are in their 40s when they're dressing like teenagers. And that is not an attractive bunch. I like the relationship between Shamari and her mother and how she gives her credit for working hard to provide for her family. If she's a OB/GYN physicians assistant, she's no dummy. Porsha's farting scene was TMI and nobody cares. Leon for the win. As usual. Mama Joyce continues to be foul. Khandi and Todd weren't buying her revisionist story about lemons. She meant it as an insult and should give up trying to backpedal.

It was hard to concentrate on what Jackie and Delores were discussing because I was too distracted by Delore's gold necklace disappearing and reappearing. The continuity monkey was asleep during the editing of that scene. The ladies all looked lovely in their dusty pink bridesmaid dresses, but Marty looked like he'd slept in his suit. Danielle has been engaged 20 times and that's the slub she married? His relationship with his adult children obviously isn't damaged that badly if they were at the wedding.

Do you mean Veruca Salt, the spoiled brat who wanted her dad to buy her one of Wonka's golden geese?

There has to be more to Dennis' empire than that hot dog cart with four walls. Unless the watches he's handing out like Halloween candy are Rolox not Rolex.

I love fruitcake but only the one made by Claxton. Last night's challenge made we want to break into my stash.

NeNe Leakes publicly rips husband, calls him 'mean, grouchy, evil' NeNe Leakes' frustration with her marriage has reached a boiling point, and she's airing out the couple's dirty laundry on social media. https://www.msn.com/en-us/tv/celebrity/nene-leakes-publicly-rips-husband-calls-him-mean-grouchy-evil/ar-BBQjTO9?li=BBnb2gh

I wonder if there's more to the requirements than simply willing to pay their fee because D'Andra said she tried to get into that program but wasn't accepted.

She converted the kid's playroom into his new bedroom which didn't make sense because he could've slept in the master bedroom as she's not there.

Poor Brandi and her failed plan to get so wasted that Leanne would be forced to call her an alcoholic. If she was so concerned that gossip about her drinking was going to jeopardize the adoption, maybe she ought to stop providing fodder for people. I believe Leanne when she said she's not calling adoption agencies and giving them the heads up. LOL Stephanie had second-hand embarrassment for Brandi. I think she'll eventually distance herself from that hot mess without anyone else's interference. Kam said, "I could care less." Pet peeve when that quote is wrong. She admits she doesn't have an adventurous palette and there's nothing wrong with that. At least she's not a snob and pretentious about that particular issue. They didn't need to go to Denmark for a cooking lesson or beer tasting. I did like D'Andra's hair being tied back while they were baking (which is something I do when I'm cooking) because I hate seeing shows where women with long hair have it loose. I keep thinking of what might be falling into the food. Yuck. D'Andra continues to be bitter and argumentative. She needs someone to ask her, "Is that the hill you want to die on?" because she seriously needs to chose her battles more carefully. Were those records from Cary's cousin? I'm betting none of them have turntables at home.

Easter of this year was on April 1st. Melissa's birthday is March 21st. As she was walking into her party at Rails she said something about it being too cold for March. If Margaret's 50th birthday was April 9, 2017 that means her ballroom hasn't been cleaned up for a year.

Maybe Leanne didn't want to invite D'Andra to the dress shopping but Rich convinced her to do it, so that's why it was only the night before. While I didn't like any of the dresses she tried on, she does have a good figure. Same with Stephanie who looked good in her original wedding dress. I'm glad their youngest didn't lose the $45K ring. I thought him dropping it and it rolling into the lake was going to happen. I think Travis contributes to Stephanie's lack of self-esteem by probably constantly reminding her of the fabulous life he's created for her. D'Andra's excuse for not upgrading to first class wasn't believable. If she didn't want her mom to be upset for putting the additional cost on the company card, she could've used her own. And 'the day after she turned the company over to her' line was stupid because nothing had been done officially yet. At that point it was still just a promise from her mother. Of course I don't understand if Hard Night Good Morning was created while she was in college, why it's still part of mama's company more than two decades later. Why was Mama Dee shit-stirring by telling Brandi what Leanne said when last episode she was lovey-dovey with her? Cow. I agree with the people who say that Leanne is hurt because Brandi used her when she wasn't speaking to Stephanie and as soon as that friendship resumed, she not only dropped Leanne but went right back to badmouthing her at every opportunity. I don't think Leanne actually cares about having a relationship with Brandi, she's just hurt by how it went down. Kam's scenes with Court were awkward as usual. But then I remember that some of the relationships between other housewives and their spouses seem to be the same, so maybe the majority of the hubbies (who aren't camera whores) are simply uncomfortable. Cary should've Googled more info about Denmark because I'm sure she could've sent something in the invite basket besides pickled herring. (Yes, I know she sent Danish. Another cliche, but at least a better tasting one.)

Gina really laid on the thick Jersey accent with her pronunciation of dawg. Funny how her parents didn't sound like stereotypes. Every scene with Emily and Shane looks like an awkward first date. As she loves his parents so much, maybe that's why she stays married. So Vicki does know where Michael lives. Steve's feelings about marriage are the same as Shane's about having another child. I love Shannon's new place so much better than her 'stately manor' first home. And of course ... Archie. Best dog in the HW franchise. Tamra's worse than Gretchen who only left Jeff once to go to Bass Lake, whereas Tamra constantly abandons Eddie. Yes, it's her job and he probably reluctantly accepts that, but from his demeanor, it obviously bothers him. I do like seeing Jolie volunteering without being forced to do it. Being affected by it is going to make her a better person as she grows up. So kadooz (tm Ramona Singer) to Kelly for her effort to raise a child who's not selfish and spoiled like so many other privileged kids.

I have some that I found at Home Goods. If you Google it, you can find them on several websites. https://cigarandwineaccessories.com/trinkware-set-of-2-wine-glasses-rhinestone-diamond-studded-with-silver-rim-long-stem-16oz-10-inches-tall-elegant-glassware-and-stemware/

If Sparkle Dog fails, Courtt can write off his investment on his taxes. I know someone whose husband financed a store for her that sold British food and she was always looking for ways to spend money because it was supposed to be a tax write-off. When the store became profitable anyway, she closed it. I wish people wouldn't shriek around animals. That poor little Joey. Brandi shouldn't worry about the adoption getting approved because it's probably a foregone conclusion even though her own kids bad-mouthed her. I don't think Leanne bought anything at Brandi's pop up - and good for her for not bowing to the pressure to buy something she didn't like or want. Cary and her raincoat for her handbag was lame. If it's that delicate, leave it at home during inclement weather. I agree with RedInk - D'Andra is friends with Leanne because she can feel financially and socially superior with the bonus of believing she's magnanimous being friends with someone who's poor by comparison. Stephanie's bathroom is both gorgeous and ridiculous. Does anyone really spend that much time lounging around in their bathroom? She's trying to be nicer this season, but her baby voice still grates.

Beth wanted a child to 'correct' the mistakes of her childhood but she's just making different ones with Bryn. I hope she did let Bryn stay with her dad during this immediate aftermath of Dennis' death. I've had my grandchildren (ages 6 & 8) all week while my ex-DIL is dealing with taking her grandmother off life-support (she died yesterday) and now the funeral arrangements.

Ramona's master bathroom needs remodeling. Who still has tile countertops, white tile floors and 'Hollywood' strip lighting above the vanities? Also the formal dining room chairs and the kitchen chairs are the same design in different colors. I did like the round crystal chandelier but it would've worked better with a round table. Matching bedside tables and lamps are considered old-fashioned now. Same with the round table draped in a floor-length tablecloth. If she consulted a decorating book for ideas, it must've been an old one. I understand keeping it simple for renters, but she's only renting it for one month out of twelve. (Unless she's got all the knick knacks in storage.) And white is not the best color scheme if she's concerned about damage.

People paying $165K per month to rent a house want high end furnishings. I don't think Ramona's worried that a rock band is going to trash her house, so that's her reason for not spending a lot on the decor. As for Beth's place looking a lot better - not necessarily. I've seen much nicer closets on the other HW shows. And I thought the dining room table was way too close to the kitchen island. At the lipstick place I thought Lu put her foot in her mouth trashing Ramona's place which looks fairly similar to Beth's own color scheme. Doris did look her best at the tour-de-FrankelManor but her haircolor is still too white. The lunch with John was awkward as hell. Or should I say, as usual. She always comes across as if she can barely stand him. Maybe it isn't the construction zone next door that's causing potential renters to offer less for Sonja's townhouse, but the yard covered in dog poop that she can't be bothered to pick up. She said the poop was exposed because the snow had melted. I guess she was planning on leaving it there to be covered again by the next winter's snowstorm. Tinsley needs to be on a show about former sorority girls in their forties who never matured past freshman year in college. While Ramona does look good, of course the photo for the skincare line was still photoshopped. They all are. Which is why so many women are disappointed when they can't achieve the same results as the celebs peddling the products. In some ways I can't blame Beth for saying she's no longer going to support vanity projects that will probably never actually materialize. But then she shouldn't expect support for her never-ending Skinny Girl crap. If Carole believes Adam is still interested in her and wants to rekindle their relationship it's because he keeps showing up when the cameras are around. Next week is Sonja's 'big reveal' and apparently Dorinda's audition tape for admission to clown college.

These are the same women who leave their dog's poo on the floor of a friend's home.

I also live in Phoenix and it airs at 9pm. Our cable provider is Cox.

I thought Vicki's wet patch at the airport might've been from the spilled tequila - but then again, I think they drained their glasses so there wouldn't be any spilled on the floor. And TMI but it's possible to pee yourself a little after taking a hard fall. I tumbled in a parking lot and did.

Bethenny basically has the same problem that Halle Berry has with her baby daddy Gabe Aubrey. They both tried to turn what should've just been a sperm donor arrangement into an actual relationship. I feel sorry for both men who've been minimalized in their children's lives. I wonder if Ramona bothered going back for the wheelchair or if she left it in the road. Luanne really looked like Sophia Vergara. The arrangement of roses did look like something that would be on the altar at a funeral and the hideousness was compounded by the initials (and something a high school guy would send his girl) but the card accompanying it was sweet. Some people who split for a brief period and then reunite don't 'deduct' that from the total time they're together. I know someone who split with baby daddy #4 went back to baby daddy #3 and then returned to #4 and they just celebrated their 8th anniversary without mentioning the gap. Loved Dorinda's colorful dress and even liked the gladiator style sandals. Just not together. Someone needed to tell Carole they weren't in New Orleans and it wasn't Mardi Gras. Sonja was kind of a non-entity this episode. As far as the house. I'm wondering if it's a bit difficult to find a place big enough that will allow filming? I'm shocked there was no fighting over the rooms despite Tinsley's necklace lottery. Which was a cute idea. I don't know why she apologized for them being made of silver instead of gold. Who cares? It was a nice, personalized gesture. Although I don't understand why she said she couldn't afford to get the gold versions considering how much money she seems to blow through.
