Carole has always been fairly straightforward about not being food driven. She has now surrounded herself with two foodies in Adam and Bethenny. Although I thought her idea for a book with Adam was a snore -the whole reluctant vegan thing while giving interviews on what she consumes claiming she eats hot dogs and some crepe layered cake that is anything but vegan, she has never seemed to be excited about food. Supportive of Adam but not food in general. I thought Carole would be all in with dim sum as a lot of it is finger food.
My husband spent a great deal of time in France. So I thought I would accentuate some dish with herbes de provence (which contained lavender). After a few bites he asked me what was in the stew and the herbes de provence. He then mentioned then lavender reminded him of his grandmother's soap (not in a good way). All I could ask is why are you eating your grandmother's soap?
I have a really rude joke, but I'll pass on it.
-----
There is a difference between being food driven (she probably Ubers to keep from cooking?) and polite?
Carole may not like what she is eating, but for fuck's sake - act like an adult or tell someone you aren't 'into' Dim Sum.
Go get a granola bar and a carrot or cucumber, Those are 'sexy' veggies?
I have seen ten year olds with better manners and bearing than most of the haus ho's - Another funny side to the story?
How much of a 'pal' is beffy if she doesn't know that carole's "food drive" ran off the road, flipped over and caught on fire?
--------------
I love to go out with my friends and have them complain, make faces and just be a bitch/bastard to me, on my dime.Call me old-fashioned, but I kinda like when people aren't such a bunch of fuck-ups.
Rogue Haus Fraus just make me laugh and point?

By omission, I guess?
But I suppose it is lying when one eats a dish they didn't enjoy at all but still tells the chef "Yum, it was delicious!"
At least you wouldn't get invited back to have another type of food or dish you didn't enjoy...
Again, Bullshitting is just another form of lying.
Hahahahahaha,
I bowed out like a gentleman, l thanked her for inviting me in to her home and for the work she did to prepare the meal.
I think it would have been rude to have gone on about how the food sucked. Who am I to discount the work and thought she put into the meal?
I could have made faces or talked about the Noodle Workers in Noodleonia who are being abused to put out more noodles - let's all look at the video on youtube - after the meal?
Caarole and most of the rest of the cast DO NOT own one iota of common sense or manners.
They are quick to judge - Isn't gossip about lu and tom, Jason and Frenchy, and Do's old man just a form of lying?
Oh no, it's not a lie, it's gossip.
Or in Lu's case?
Saving herself from herself!

Not if you keep telling people you like their shitty food, when you really don't...
Yes, honesty is a virtue. I guess lying to spare other people's feelings might be as well. Who knows?
And when did that happen?
I apologize if I gave the impression that I told anyone I like a dish when I hated it.
Is it lying if you don't mention the fact that the food sucked?,
----
Or maybe I should have made faces and went on and on about something that put me off, like carole?
Again, Bullshitting is telling tall tales and talking smack.
Lying would be something like telling someone that they have a wonderful sense of humor, when in reality they are pretty bland and boring?
Like beffy and scarehole, They are tons of funny, but if we were the butt of their indifference and stupidity, we'd be aghast at their behavior?

You are missing out. I bet you that if I were to cook you a delicious boudin blanc or boudin noir, you would be asking for second!
I tricked my husband into eating tripes, kidney and balls. It is all about the sauces and presentation. ;-)
My wife will cook a really good meal and then pick it apart.....
"I didn't leave the veggies to cook long enough/I didn't put ------ into the dish/I was too bland."
After about 50 meals, dissected that way, I told her to look for two things.
If I don't clean my plate, It sucked
If I go back for seconds, It didn't suck.

She make a chicken dim sum dish last night.
I told her, Dim sum good food you cooked last night.

My son had the best reply to one of his college roommates he brought home one time after he stated that he did not like biscuits and gravy (I made them for breakfast, which, if I do say so myself, I can make really well - at least to our taste!) I was in the adjoining room when I heard his friend say he didn't want any (being a good host, I would've fixed him something else,) but before I could offer him anything, my son said "you will eat it, and you will like it!" He ate it, and he liked it! My son wasn't about to have me come in there and fix him something else, especially after the guy stayed in the shower for 45 minutes and used up the hot water! He was not a good guest.
And you have a GOOD son.
I was raised with a mom that told us what we were eating and if any noise was made about the meal, we were asked not to participate in the meal and to go to our rooms, I learned not to be too picky when I ate out, as a matter of fact, it pushed me to try other kinds of food/cuisine.
---
My friend was Italian and when I went to his house before we went out on the town, his mom - Concetta - would start in with the, "sit down, eat, you are NOT leaving until you eat".
"No, thank you, I just ate.....'
"Whasdamatter? you doan like 'Talian?"
Three minutes later, I was sitting at the table with a plate in front of me.
When I finished cleaning off my plate, she offer me a refill and if I declined?
"Whasdamatter? you doan like my cookin'?"
I was going to eat, no questions asked?

I am sure some view her using a BEC lens, it happens to all the HWs, not just Bethenny or Heather. I base my opinion of Bethenny on her own behaviors, what I have seen throughout the many years she has been this show/her own 2 shows and her Talk/Radio shows. She is not a nice person, she uses and abuses most people around her then discards them when they are of no further use to her. As for Heather, I like her and I admit, she wasn't perfect, she was far from it but she wasn't selfish/cruel like Bethenny is and I never saw Heather get enjoyment from destroying a person, Bethenny gets her rocks off doing to others.
As to the weight of charges leveled against Jason, until he is found guilty, he is presumed innocent, and the charges are misdemeanors plus 1 possible minor felony (equating out to the level of a misdemeanor). I think some here have already found him guilty even though none of us know both sides. Yes, it is possible that he went off the rails even though we have never seen Jason do that before. But we have seen Bethenny try and twist things in her favor before, she refuses to admit she does anything wrong, she tends to blame her victims for "making her go there" and she tends to run when it is time for her to face the music. Bethenny does not believe in compromise, it is her way or the high way in all things. That has served her well in business but it is not healthy or realistic in ones private life, which is why she burns through people like she does IMO.
As for the fact that having charges filed against Jason automatically means where there's smoke there's fire, that simply isn't true, I have seen (firsthand) how little it takes anymore.
Wait a minute, You are innocent BEFORE you get a chance to get into court and prove you aren't as bad as the charges filed against you?
I think the court of public opinion is just as flawed as the assholes that run it? ; )

It's never easy breaking up with a Housewife, is it? You've been through so much together; the confessionals that made you cringe, the procedures you wished they didn't have (and some you wish they had). The alliances they formed with housewives you hate, leaving you feeling lost and confused and betrayed -- how could they do this to you? And where did all the fun go? -- you give so much, and what do you get in return? Bad clothes, bad hair, bad behavior. Shit, whole bad seasons. The kooky become crazy. The contented become smug. The publicity goes to their heads, and their heads go up their asses. But you stick it out, you gut through it. You come here and you argue on behalf of your housewife, because that's the way it's always been. But soon after, you notice the things you say you like about her are all in the past. And then she does something - that one thing -- and you realize, the end is near. And that afternoon at work -- at home - on the bus - you let a post critical of your housewife slide by, without comment from you.
And then another... and another... and then you post something critical yourself.
It's over. You're just not that into her. Now she's just a housewife that you used to know.
LOLOL, Denial and then Acceptance.
IT'S tough when you have to 'bury' a housewife you have known and loved.

Do you wrinkle your nose, like it's poop though? LOL!! Please, just say no and move on. Boring Carol.zzzzz
Thank you.
It would have been TOO adult-like to make a statement like,
"Lavender? I don't think I have ever tried it, I don't think I'd like it."
Or instead of making a face - like those a two year old eating mashed peas or pulverized beef from a jar makes?
------
Basic food manners are simple,
IF I invite, I will let you choose where we are going.
IF you leave it to me?
I hope that you will eat (or try to eat) what we went out for.
IF you do not like it, I expect you NOT TO MAKE ME FEEL like an asshole, someone who is trying to poison you or make you sick.
I also expect you to be honest, but polite - I am not going to shame you or make you feel like shit for not eating.
I might ask you some questions about your aversion to whatever it is you don't like. I am not going to embarrass you for not eating, make jokes or shame you.
It really doesn't matter if that meal is home cooked or eaten in a restaurant.
I am going to behave myself when I am at the table (Which means I am not going to whine, make faces, pick at my food and then talk about the 'cruelty' to the animals or plants on my plate)
I don't really give a flying fuck about your disgust, your food allergies or the reaction you had to eating Pixie Sticks, because you cannot do Red Dye #6.
It's pretty simple, Just behave yourself and when you feel like making faces or acting like you want to induce vomiting with a pantomime of sticking a finger down your throat?
Go sit at the kiddie table, there's only adults at this space.

As long as Luann and Sir Camel aren't caught humping at Beautique, Tom's cool with their relationship.
Slight difference, especially at a restaurant versus sampling food someone prepared at home just for you.
And being honest also could mean potentially avoiding future situations where you have to keep lying to the person about how much you "enjoyed" their food/the food at the restaurant.
Having manners, couth or the ability to choke down a little humility is beyond any of those chuckleheads.
I can tell the planet is heading into times of better manners, etiquette and that people have halted making excuses for the lack of?

IF I take someone out for a bite to eat (I am picking up the tab) I'll ask them what they want to do.
I will save the 'new experiences' for someone I know I will have fun with.If we do go out to a new place/experience? I sure as shit hope my lunch date doesn't act like a three year old with an aversion to green beans, when we hit the Green Bean Café and Bistro.
Food/meals are supposed to be a binding experience - Its kinda nice to sit down/order/sample food without someone making faces and commenting about how "NASTY" something sounds or tastes.
What ever happened to keeping your trap shut or how's about having a grown up discussion about what you don't like?
Or how's about sampling a dish/food without making a face, comment or squirming in your seat?

I love Pancit.
I was doing some side work for a Filipino couple and they offered to cook me lunch. I told them I liked pancit and a few days later, I was sitting at the table eating lunch with them
Now, I had discovered the dish at a pot luck and found a Filipino eatery a block away from work where I could get my fix, it was just the kind of dish I love.
When I took the first bite of the woman's dish, I knew that I didn't like it. She had made it with a sauce that I just couldn't.
I got thru the meal - that one dish was one of the top ten worst meals I have ever eaten - and it didn't kill me. As a matter of fact, I felt badly later on that I lied to her and told her the food was good.

Most of the behavior I see coming from the HWs is mostly bad manners/behavior.
None of these asswipes know anything about manners....

There were no FOODIES in the 90s (at least, not the way it is now with Instagram and Yelp) and yet characters on 1990s Americans sitcoms made a HUGE point of ordering Chinese food left and right, CONSTANTLY. They even ordered it on Roseanne, a show started in the 80s, which was based in Illinois. CAROLE. LIVES. IN. NEW. YORK. To pretend there isn't a racial tinge to the way she was acting in Chinatown is ridiculous! I've been to NYC ONCE and I've been to Chinatown in NYC. How has it not interested her all this time? She hasn't had DIM SUM? It's 2017! This has nothing to do with not being a foodie. I'm not a foodie, I don't care about food, yet living in Toronto I've had most cuisines possible. Indian, Thai, Chinese, Vietnamese, Hakka, Szechuan, Jamaican, Korean, Caribbean at large, Greek, Italian, Mexican, Japanese, Laotian, Malaysian (This is all in Toronto. I'm talking about the types of foods that are most popular in my city. This is part of regular life. And I have a looooooot of allergies. Starting with I can't even eat eggs or milk.) Jesus. Maybe when I was 16 I hadn't , but now I certainly have. Being an adult. She's 53.
Sorry, You never had Mex food until you sat at my mom's table.
For the rest of my life, I will never be able to eat rice and not think about my mom.

Sadly, it isn't. It isn't at all. Bigotry should never be considered "a bit much". It was typical of too many Bravo shows & too easy to dismiss as nothing much It was casually homophobic. I guess maybe it's something that even Satan Andy pointed it out himself, so even he would disagree with you, as I strongly & strenuously do.
I have a problem with "my gay husband" and "my gays" horseshit.
The people that use that terminology are punks - Notice that when they start with the labeling they get this bossy/bitchy attitude and start to snap fingers and point at shit.
And what bugs me even more? The people who laugh and giggle at the terms.

Bethenny is that person who has to make everyone feel/look less than she is so that she feels superior to everyone in the room. She is the type to give you a hand up by giving you her cast offs then reminding you that you would never have been able to do it on your own like she did.
Yep.
We have seen her 'manners' when it comes to speaking in front of the people she is talking about?
She is also THAT person that stops to help you with whatever your dropped on the ground, then walks away muttering and laughing about what an idiot YOU are. within earshot.
What I love about her is her IDGAF attitude - that is the first thing that gets burnt off during a reentry from high earth orbit.

This was an unusual episode but there was no shortage of back biting.
I thought the footage of Tom and Luann's was plenty. We had Dorinda sharing photos with Ramona, Carole and Bethenny having their marriage as center stage in their lunch conversation. The meet and greet the couple was sufficient for the purpose. I do believe the producers would have loved having a conversation between Bethenny and Ramona. I was surprised at how genuinely nice Ramona and Sonja were to Tom and Luann.
The back bites-obviously the Bethenny, Carole conversation about Tom being gay. It wasn't a rumor, it was insight based on Carole's vast superior knowledge of relationships. These two need to stop giving rumors an inception and/or legs.
Bethenny-your party featuring seafood and caviar is no reason to turn your brag about your holiday get together being better than Dorinda's roast chicken. Dorinda has been there and done the sushi chef for a very elegant formal dinner. Dorinda also has to cobble breakfast together the next day and put up with fire starters, vandals and someone eating with her fingers while promising to show a video of the inhumane treatment of the main course. My cringe-drinking Skinygirl Margaritas luge or not with caviar. How about an upscale vodka at the proper temperature?
Dorinda, who I do believe has an incredibly short attention span, your toast was about you. Telling someone to stop celebrating although honest would be akin to someone telling you to stop eulogizing your late husband. Dorinda at some point has to realize and play nice that some stuff is just for the show. I would like to see more John but Dorinda has sais she wants the attention on her.
Carole what the hell? Why was she essentially calling Tom and Luann liars over whether or not Luann cooks? Luann of all the insults did not take this one in stride: http://www.bravotv.com/the-real-housewives-of-new-york-city/season-9/blogs/luann-dagostino/luann-dagostino-being-married-to
Ramona, you got it right, going to a meet and greet is not the same as attending the wedding. You already covered this with claiming you wanted an invite so you can decline it. Really-they ran out of money? I would not spend $10.00 a head on these clowns at this point. Ramona seems to forget what she did in the Berkshires to Luann.
Bethenny calling Carole boring. Just not nice, especially after Carole disputed Ramona's claim of Bethenny calling Carole boring.
I did love that Dorinda won't let go of Ramona trashing her house. Icing on the cake-Jill Zarin calling Ramona a pig.
It's not a 'rumor' when you talk smack about someone, on tape.
It's pretty blatant what you are doing, You are out to besmirch or put someone down.
I can bet you dollars to donuts that she'd be on the twatter and calling up a lawyer to silence her hecklers if one of her castmates put her ass on the fire?
It's NOT a good look to talk shit about people, call your 'best bud' an asshole/boring and to be thought of as a turd in the punch bowl that is NYC?
And no one caught her comment to the server about the 'menage'? Seriously? You walk into an establishment ask a question and your second statement is about having a threesome because there are only three people in the room?
Her behavior goes right past the point of being juvenile - she act like a goddamned three year old that learned to say "Shit".
You can giggle and laugh about it at first, but it gets embarrassing after a while.
People are too polite, taken back or are laughing too hard at her stupidity to take the time to correct her. There is also the chance that she'll unleash a torrent of vulgarities at you in a public setting - then her and carol will leave the scene together. On the way home they make up excuses as to why her outburst was within the limits of good taste/behavior and why it needed to be done?
Their 'friendship' has the glue of jealousy, rudeness and being gold plated asshole to bind it.
Their slogan is probably, "Asshole Twin Power, Engage!!!!!"
Beffy is the female version of a that knuckle dragging fool that makes inappropriate comments to women - can't sit still, uses the word "fuck" as a noun, pronoun, verb, adjective, pronoun. She's that wannabe 'gangster' the runs up and down the block starting shit and then bailing when it comes time to put up or shut up.
"b real" is code for 'Bitch, really?'

S09.E11: A Countess No More
in The Real Housewives Of New York City
You didn't mention ANYTHING about walking into an establishment and making crude remarks to the female staff? I find it oddly refreshing to blurt out comments about vaginas and the such, especially in an ultra-aggressive manner.
The women LOVE it.
It's better when a liberated gal like beffy pulls it off, It shows a certain panache that is uniquely hers.
Imagine the fun that Pleather DooBrow would have had with this group?
The would have ripped her "bow" off and let one of the dogs shit ON the cake?
