  1. I'm enjoying this show immensely, and hope it continues to do well in the ratings so it can stay around for a long time. I also liked "So Help Me Todd", but evidently the powers that be thought it wasn't worth continuing. With Elsbeth, I sit back and suspend reality for an hour and just enjoy her quirkiness, her wardrobe, and all of the supporting cast. I don't care if the courtroom stuff was totally a farce, or any of the other things that would not ordinarily happen in the real world. This show isn't the real world, but it sure is helping me forget about the real world for an hour or so each week.
  2. A couple of seasons ago, one of the contestants was on a weekly radio show in her hometown, and she talked about her experience on the show. She did give some more detailed info about behind the scenes stuff that I didn't know, and that the viewers don't see happening. She did not win, but managed to stay on for 5 or 6 episodes. I cannot remember how I stumbled upon the radio show, but if you Google enough correct key words you might be able to find it. EDITED to add this: I dug back into my comments and found a link to the radio interview the contestant gave to a Natchez radio station if anyone is interested - https://listenupyall.com/2023/05/10/31593/
  3. Washington to Libertyville, Illinois - I got so tired of listening to the husband talk about how he wanted to be able to walk to get coffee. The man must have a coffee habit. Also, if you concerned about budget, coffee shop coffee isn't cheap. The wife was the practical one regarding $$, pointing out that college tuition would be looming in the coming years. The house they chose was the most practical for them, and I hope her parents can continue to climb the stairs from their basement apartment for many years to come.
  4. Same here. For 2 weeks in a row, my cat has been curled up in my lap sleeping, and the minute Jer began her cat imitation, my kitty bolted out of the room. I guess that means her imitation is a good one, but I do wish she would stop.
  5. Watched the first episode tonight. Wow! I wish I didn't have to wait a week for the 2nd one.
  6. I was surprised to find 30+ recordings of HH on my DVR last night. I couldn't tell if they were new or old, so I watched a few. I think the ones I watched were new, at least new to me. One was a couple looking for a bigger house for their 2 boys to grow up in. The dad was a firefighter, and I don't remember what the wife did. She described herself as a helicopter mom, and the husband was the sane one who wanted the kids to have some freedom to be kids (they were 3 & 5). She was annoying as hell, and she had spent way too much time in a tanning bed or applying orange tanning cream. That and the stiletto heels she wore with jeans and shorts made for an interesting fashion combo. Oh, she liked to shop too, and didn't want the price of the house to interfere with her shopping budget. These are the people whose retirement savings I want to see. I liked the husband's down to earth thinking. It must get tiresome living with someone like her 24/7, but they've been together 10 years, so he must not mind too much.
  7. Carl needs to get over Cassandra and move on. Even if she decides to try to get back together with him, he needs to realize she's always going to be unhappy with his job, and freak out every time something goes awry. Let her go find some professor with a safe job to keep her happy. Carl deserves better.
  8. I'm embarrassed to say that I did not guess the answer. I live 80 miles from New Orleans, Louisiana, and All Saints Day is a big religious day here because of the large Catholic population in the state. I'm a Saints fan too - even when they lose. I was kicking myself when I saw the answer.
  9. I'm glad you asked that question. During COVID I developed a bad case of eczema on my hands because of over use of hand sanitizer. It strips your skin of valuable moisture. I had to use nitrile gloves for just about everything, and had to take Dupixent injections for a year. I still use the gloves once in a while when I have an eczema flare on my hands. I'm in my 70's and the dermatologist told me that the combo of age and hand sanitizer were the triggers. As you age your skin needs more moisture. i never use hand sanitizer now, and have found a wonderful soap replacement that is unscented, and leaves your skin feeling soft. It's Amish Farm Soap and can be ordered on online.
  10. If you live near a Trader Joe's they have one during the summer months that is very good, IMO. Bakers/cooks who make them at home may not agree, but I think it's a good substitute for home made.
  11. Drives me nuts when someone says "I've never tried this before, but I have to go for it". Guess I don't have their sense of adventure or security in my cooking. Stick with what you know is my philosophy, and which is probably why I would never be on a cooking contest show.
  12. I really enjoyed this episode, and loved the ending.
  13. I laughed when Duff called out the sprinkles that the "senior" baker used in his decorations. Sprinkles should be banished forever on this show.
  14. So sorry SoMuchTV. I wasn't paying enough attention when I posted my comment. I'm blaming it on the time change.
  15. I was screaming "Baton Rouge", as I sat in my comfy chair, in my house, IN Baton Rouge.
