Kaylee does need to trim the asparagus, but overall the dinner looks good. She may be learning to cook, a skill her mother never even attempted. Jill is always too busy admiring her face in a mirror or out buying up the bag-for-a-dollar deals at the thrift stores to do anything to nourish her family.

Yet, Jill is copying this Barbie's hair, makeup, and jewelry choices. Barbie would never wear a dingy modesty shirt under her blouse, however.

As Jill described it: "THIS WAS THE SECOND RECEPTION - TO SIT DOWN, EAT A MEAL AND ENJOY THE FELLOWSHIP," as if Jill and David had had something to do with the Kellers' party. In addition to potato chips and olives for the FIRST RECEPTION, Nurie had a wedding cake, and I think the Dingus woman (Sydney?) from Joy Baptist made it as a gift. She also did the purple and green cake for Nurie's wedding shower. To show their thanks, Jill and David must have done, uh, something really, really special for the Dingus family, I'm sure. I'll bet Jill did something wonderful for the Kellers too to show her gratitude for sponsoring the SECOND RECEPTION. Jill is just that kind of thoughtful, gracious, generous woman. Just ask her.

Remember when Jill used Suzette and Mike's anniversary dinner as a way to feed her hungry hoard for free after Nurie's lackluster wedding reception? Jill has never cared about anybody but herself. Other people exist only for what they can do for her.

Poor Kaylee is dressed like a geriatric member of the British royal family. All she needs is a little white pocketbook with a handle. She gets major points, however, for little Gideon wearing his glasses.

Since we're on the subject, there's something beige or green peeking out either under the shirt or over the top of the skirt. At first, I thought it was a modesty shirt under the blouse, but maybe it's Spanx or an equivalent. If so, that skirt either has a pretty low waist or she can't pull it up any higher. Yes, Giorigo! And it's in Jill's favorite decades.

I feel really sorry for the skirt. It's obviously suffering. Jill, the attention seeker, came to an Easter Sunday church service dressed as a circus clown. Her lack of taste never fails.

Jill sure spent that Melaleuca check fast buying new clothes for herself. She'll have to revive the whipped cream boutique to get rid of some of her collection.

It's interesting that Nurie is the only one in the large group who couldn't find a plain white or beige top. You'd think with all the modesty shirts she must own, there'd be a white t-shirt "blouse" in the bunch. She could have borrowed one of Nathan's, but that would literally be breaking the women can't wear men's clothing rule.

Didn't Jill also mention brain plasticity after reading a book on the subject by Debi Pearl (!), whose credentials are blanket trainer and godly helpmeet?

I think the hutch and the stove move in and out of the dining room by season. It's time for the switch.

I'm going to assume that the company Jill is talking about here is Melaleuca. This is a Mormon founded and led company. I doubt Jill considers Mormons to be real Christians, and if she ran into any of these people in public, she would bat her greasy eyelids at them and insist they take a smiley tract to get saved in the right way. After reading Jill's qualifications for choosing a company worthy of employing her extraordinary (cough, cough) self, I sincerely hope Mela-whatever manages to screw her over in every way possible. I have no patience for either Jill or these pyramid scams, and her Weepy Jilly post would be epic.

I hope Kaylee doesn't light real candles in that house. It looks like a dry, old place that could be engulfed in flames in a minute. The barndo is bad enough, but at least it is has a metal construction and is one floor (except for the "guest suite"). Both places are filled with fuel courtesy of Hobby Lobby and various MLMs.

Jill is about as submissive as an angry camel. She just plays the meek housewife role when she wants something from somebody.

The girl in Wisconsin was someone he met at his job, I believe. The photos were of a work party. Jill apparently didn't like what she was seeing, so he was home not long after. His departure was quiet, but it seems he left before Spring Break. Covid hit, but he could have finished the semester remotely. If he had, Jill would have bragged about it. I doubt he was doing well in school. In addition to his classes, he was working and taking flying lessons. It's not a good situation for someone starting so far behind academically. The first year of community college can be an extension of high school, but Tim never got close to high school in The Best Home School Ever.
