But if you cook all of the stuff together, all at once... ...props to Blue Apron for being able to laugh at itself ("I'm paying to COOK this MYSELF?" LOL). We're a Plated family, but Blue Apron is in my good books in case we ever want a change.

Wait a second. Didn't Kelly just get out of rehab, along with Streetchild? Why, then, are they both at a party where Intoxicating Substances are present?

This. My favorite Italian restaurant (curiously, owned and operated by a Croatian family!) has this dish that is basically spaghetti dressed with good olive oil, anchovy, and lemon zest. Freshly shaved parm for on top. So simple, but off-the-chain delicious. I don't like any dish that is just drowning in cheese. I, too, noticed that the wife has significant weight issues herself. Near the end of the show, Michael was either her size or even somewhat smaller. I was also irritated by her attitude. First she complained that he did nothing. Then when he turned it around and started to be engaged by life, she complained that he was hard to keep up with.

I'm in the minority here, it seems: I like Ryan. I didn't think it was posturing or posing when he was banging on the door for assistance or outraged at Jeremy's "treatment." Jeremy could have very easily died, had his appendix exploded. Hell, they didn't even know (or care to know) if it had. This leads me to wonder if Clark County has had inmates die while in their jail due to inhumane treatment. Walking around in excrement and being denied the very substance that is essential to human life almost had me believing that this whole thing was one of those psychological experiments they do to explore human dynamics and breaking points.

Horrible. Horrible. Horrible. I wish someone had thought to use their phone time to call the television stations in Indianapolis. I am quite sure the media would want to hear about those appalling conditions. Something tells me that media interest might get the whole lot of them off of their fat asses to get those men some water and to get the shit water cleaned up properly. Horrible.

The truth is, I like Cambrie more and more with each episode. She really does seem to care about each girl, and it was a fun treat that she rented out the water park for the afternoon so the kids could kick back and have some fun.

No Heifers: Losing Weight With The Baltierra Method

That wedding dress makes her look like she is covered in white mold.

Alexei belongs to Loren now. The parents need to get a grip.

Catelynn, if you are reading this: Yes, living with a mental illness is terribly hard. You can do it, I know that you can, because I have been doing so for the past 16 years. There are a lot of people in the world who are mentally ill. You certainly aren't alone. And while a mental illness presents many, many challenges, you can still find your way to a happy life. Believe me. The "man" you are married to seems to think that mental illness is something you can turn On and Off at will. This is, frankly, as ignorant as it is dangerous. One of the most challenging aspects of being mentally ill is how unpredictable it can be. I know. Take this year, for example: I was taking my meds regularly, and going to therapy regularly...when all of a sudden, my meds stopped working. First I went into a mania. Then I went slamming down into a depression that landed me in the mental hospital. It sucked. It sucked so bad. But unfortunately, that is sometimes how it is. You need to make sure you understand that, because it's obvious that Tyler doesn't. YOU CAN LIVE A HAPPY LIFE WHILE DEALING WITH A MENTAL ILLNESS. You need to take care of yourself. You need to surround yourself with people who genuinely love you and will accept you just exactly as the wonderful, screwed-up, darling, mentally ill woman that you are. You need to love yourself and accept yourself enough to view your illness as just simply a part of you: you, wonderful you. It's an illness, after all. (Would you hate on yourself if you had cancer?) You deserve better, honey. I think you know what I mean. Take care, Bethster.

Hi, Tyler! Shouldn't you be caring for your infant daughter? You suck at life, by the way.

Hey Jorge, you felt you had to go to Russia to find a bride (I originally typed "broad") because American women are so terrible, right? Feminazis, and all that nonsense? They don't take care of their husbands? Right. Enjoy cold pasta sauce on bow-tie noodles with your little blow-up doll. I'll be too busy making sauteed tilapia with roasted broccoli for my husband tonight. With strawberry shortcake for dessert.

I hate Kelly so much. So, so much. Model, my ass.

Scott is the only one who gives a damn about Rob.

Here is what bothers me about the story: So you have five robbers in the apartment, and one of them is armed. Why go to the time and trouble to bind and gag Kim, and put her in the bathroom? Time is of the essence in a robbery, one robber had a gun, Kim was terrified, why not just hold her at gunpoint while the other robbers ransacked the place (or went for various items quite methodically)? In, and out. The goal of the robbery wasn't hurting Kim in any way (otherwise they would have shot her). It was her stuff that they were after. Being held at gunpoint would have been sufficient to subdue her while they robbed her. It's hinky.
