I can picture him as the type that would do that (based on those news segments). Complete with crocs. 

 

eta: wasn't there a service dog that gave birth in an airport recently? Maybe he's always at the ready in case there's a veterinary emergency.

I guess that I wouldn’t be a happy guest because I don’t care for that brand of champagne. I’d rather a Tattingers or Bollingers. Well you could talk me into some Dom Pérignon Lol. 

[SuprSuprElevated]

For me, the kitchen is the soul and gathering place in the home, and thus a place of warmth.  Her cavernous kitchen is cold imo.  Looks like something from Sons of Anarchy.

[biakbiak]

Good lord the fact that she uses the large big fridge in the actual kitchen to just hold 10 glass bottles of juice and baby champagne and crams the actual food in a smaller hidden fridge says so much about her and none of it good. 

Not for nothing Veuve Clicquot is the champagne we would buy in college when we wanted to feel fancier because it was still comparatively affordable so I don’t think that fridge is as impressive as she thinks it does. It also reminds me of the wine fridge they have on one of the Below Deck boats.

Best is the $3000.00 coffee machine that she tries to show, pretends to start pressing buttons and then realizes that she doesn't know how to use it because she doesn't like coffee. Good Grief.

Vueve is actually my favorite, but I agree it’s silly to have all of the same.  I like to try different kinds and see what they’re like.  Hopefully it was just for the shoot (and she got the bottles for free for promo purposes) because it does look pretty with all the same bottles.

ITA. I guess she thinks of herself as cute and amusing but I find her so bloody affected all the time. I wonder if Terry ever says "enough" or has been emasculated to the point of nothing more than 24/7 of "Yes, dear."  

[SuprSuprElevated]

If you get the chance to catch them on Evine while hawking the skin care/wellness (barf) product line, you'll note how Terry most just stands there in his scrubs (barf), while heather rapid fires the pitch.  Commerce imitating life.

[SnarkKitty]

I know Heather is low key hated, but I LURVE her and her kitchen. I live for white marble and a cool white-dominated kitchen. I describe my own kitchen as whiter than the KKK. I really loved that fridge with everything decanted in etched glass *swoon*, my dream. I love a beautiful interior. It helps I don't have kids around to buy for anymore. My dream is a glass door fridge ala Yolanda *FOSTER*(whom I high key hate). I'm getting one, IDC.

Lurved the glass-ed pantry, I try to decant as much as I can into glass jars too! And that dumbwaiter! Uh, SMARTwaiter! So is the trough in the island for ice and keeping necessary dishes cold. You better host, bish!!  

The only thing I disliked about the whole tour was her invoking the K-KLan and their stupid cookie jars. Where's my invite, Heather? Was mine the one that was lost?

OK, I reluctantly admit that I looked at the pics of her kitchen several times. I’m looking to remodeling my kitchen soon and she does have some really cool features. I love love love the trough in the island. What a fun, perfect feature for entertaining. I also love Veuve. ❤️

I also loved Yo’s glass door frig @SnarkKitty but I’m too free spirited (unorganized) to ever pull that off.

Wow.  I guess I know what YoYo's Malibu Barbie kitchen wants to be when it grows up.

Heather really has outdone herself (and just about everyone else on the planet).  ;-)

[SnarkKitty]

@AntAnn I love making my fridge look appetizing with the door shut; if I could see it without opening the door I'd keep it even nicer. Lucky you, I live for a good kitchen renovation. (And I too love Veuve! I wish I could spare the room for a full wall of "champs." But I do keep a bottle of Prosecco in the fridge at all times chilling. I'm about that "champs" on a budget life!)

I think Heather's fridge looks sterile, and not in a good modern way. It's as if one wouldn't dare pour themselves a glass of whatever was in the decanters lest the hostess blow a gasket over the uneveness of liquid levels. All I see is the first part of Sleeping with the Enemy.

At least Yolanda's fake fridge looked inviting.

To me Heather's second fridge was much more interesting.

Yes I'm one of those who pauses the TV just to take inventory of what is in the refrigerators, pantrys and cabinets of housewives and others.

I still cannot wrap my head around the idea that a cosmetic surgeon banks enough cheddar to build that museum.  I'm not mad or jealous or anything like that, I'm intimidated by the thought of all that marble.  I just can't comprehend the massive amount of money required for debt service, maintenance and upkeep, staff... I would imagine that the monthly property taxes exceed my family's income in our best year.

I do too! It always amazes me that there are very few personal items in the rooms. I know I live in clutter but no magazines, mail, kids stuff, or anything that doesn't perfectly match the decor. Doesn't anyone have a piece of family furniture or art, sofas or anything that isn't sterile? Especially the kitchens, hardly anything on the counters. I just don't believe it, better yet, don't want to live that way.

Growing up, one of my friends lived in a lovely home where the front room was off limits, the fabric furniture was covered in plastic, and the tables had drapes on them -- all taken off only for holidays and company. I feel like Heather's new squat is the 21st century version of the plastic-covered sofa: the carefully curated refrigerator is for show and *squee! look at that* but the family uses the crowded one with the bottled salad dressing and rarely open the fancy one's doors. And they live in a few rooms and have their respective bedrooms but certain downstairs areas are kept pristine and camera ready.

Well, right now, my kitchen table is full of mail, bills, doctors appointment reminders,  MRI discs, etc.  My counters aren’t with nothing on them as I never have enough closet space or a big pantry.  Let’s not forget, Heather probably has a cook, as she can’t fry an egg, maids, cleaning women and whatever.  So, what the hell does she have to do in the house, except give orders.  And, I’ll bet she doesn’t even do laundry .. it’s probably sent out, and I’m sure she doesnt even know what an iron is.  Yeah, I would love Terry too.  P.s.  Since the kids are gone now, we mostly love to eat on trays while watching t.v. In the comfort of our den.  That’s how we roll.

The malpractice insurance is high, but they largely get to avoid insurance reimbursement for payment. Except for reconstructive surgery and when a patient can tie the need for a cosmetic surgery to an underlying medical issue (rhinoplasty for a sinus and breathing issue or breast reduction for a back issue), most people are paying cash or financing their surgeries. Plastic surgery practices don't need to have big billing departments filled with medical coders and utilization nurses. They aren't dicking around with insurance companies about what the company is going to pay. A patient walks into the office saying I want bigger boobs. The doctor asks how big, figures the cost for the implants, how much for the facility fee (which is probably his own ambulatory surgery center), the salaries of his staff, adds his overhead and adds his profit percentage. He turns back to the patient and says $6000. No negotiating with anyone.

Neurology, cardiology, and orthopaedic surgeries might cost more, but they have to deal with hospital and insurance stuff.

Plastics is a cash business.

Love it !  My fridge is on my bucket list.  On one chair hangs two pocketbooks, one tote bag and a sweater, haha.  I need company coming to get going, but lately I don’t even want company .. too much trouble.  Let’s blame the Post Office.  Husband doesn’t give a shit as long as he eats and watches his sports.  I’ve had it.  Like Lauren Bacall said in “The Mirror Has Two Faces”,  “I’ve made my coffee”, now I do nothing.  Hahahahaha.  No, we have to blame this thread, actually.  On it every time I sit down.

[walnutqueen]

Heather's sterile "home" makes my teeth itch.  Sleeping With The Enemy vibes, indeed.

The last time I paid someone to clean my house was in 2012, when my Mum visited.  Now that she's dead, I can only imagine her ghost tsk tsking at the science experiment that is a cobweb - I'm waiting to see how long it can grow.  And dust bunnies?  Forget about it - I have dust elephants. (the same people who cleaned my house back in 2012 also broke my brand new Dyson vac, so I do have an excuse - I mean, besides my disabled arms).   ;-)

First of all, these women have money to buy new and redecorate whenever their heart desires.  After three kids thru college, I can buy a new toaster.  Secondly, they all have cleaning women.  That would be my dream for someone else to clean two bathrooms.  Bet they send laundry out too.  Then there’s the outside, which they have Gardner’s.  They also don’t save clothes forever.  They buy new every season and throw away the old (l or 2 yrs) I assume.  Sure they can show their houses, because everything is new and sparkling clean and neat left from the housekeepers.  Heather Dubrow is not stupid.  She saw big bucks when she met the Doctor and snagged him.  Now she has whather heart desires.  Over the top, IMO.

Handbag, purse, suitcase, backpack, tote bag, chefs roll...so many to peruse. ;-)

The best ones are those where it's a spur of the moment purse dump. You get to see a snippit of their life in objects. 

Sometimes you come across "logo/name loving strivers" trying to out glam each other. 

One of the best searches is Nathalie Leroc's watercolors of what people carry. Once she hits 1000 she's gonna publish a book. I've been waiting a long long time for that book.

Kate Spade also put out a purse dump book a while back. I had to buy it. I also bought one on chef's refrigerator contents.

I'd be curious to see housewive's purse dump. The closest we ever got was when Lisa V. got Kyle's purse wet on a plane and she had to dump.

I don't peek into cabinets, iceboxes or purses just to snoop because it's a terrible invasion of privacy but I will look if they post it online or they expose it in front of me.
