Sweet Fellowship: Duggars and Friends (aka the Bates Family and Other Featured Families Thread)


Message added by Scarlett45

If a person/family was never featured on any of the Duggar shows, and is not related to the Duggar family by blood or marriage, they do not need to be discussed here..

The Politics Policy is still in effect. A participants social media is NOT an invitation to discuss their political view points. Consider if discussion of certain social media posts will cause you to violate the politics policy BEFORE you hit the "Submit Reply" button.

We may all agree that David Rodriques is quite unfortunate looking, but let's refrain from comparing human beings to apes, its got way too much of a loaded history- please review the new Inclusion Policy updated May 1, 2022 , which details guidelines around discussing body type, capabilities, physical appearance etc. Additionally, using body size as an insult is not allowed.

The only religious book with those initials that I can think of is Doctrine and Covenants; but that's part of the Book of Mormon and I doubt Jill is familiar with it.

The quote about the fields being ready to harvest is from the Gospel of John in the regular Bible, but it is found at 4:35 not 4:4.

yes latter day saints

I would say jill saw it posted by someone else and reused it not knowing the source.

Jill should be spending some time with Exodus 32 these days. Her god's thoughts on false idols and what happens when he sees they are "stff-necked people are pretty clear.

Stiff necked - We are spiritually stiffnecked when we are hardhearted, stubborn, rebellious, or prideful.

You do not want to die and leave David alone do you? He will marry a blue haired woman who actually has a job. And can cook actual meals and not yellow greasy slop… 

 

Get well so you won’t leave David all alone.

Some sad news to report. Hallie Coverett Judge had a falling out with Ellen today over recent events. Hallie's post saying she both hated and loved Ellen was sad. Ellen was in the wrong with her gloating. I can see why it upset Hallie so much. 

They're no longer following each other on IG (they were earlier in the day).

Hallie also said something like Ellen loves politics more than she loves her family.  That made me think that they've been having issues for a long time.   Poor Hallie.

I don’t blame her. Team Hallie.

I felt this way about my dad before he passed away in 2019. Sad.

Just to lighten the mood away from politics.

Old post from Jill Dec 2020 on what they do with the seasonal pumpkins they buy. They are for decoration and then....the horror begins. Is baking pumpkin seeds with globs of butter a real thing?

"Our yearly tradition. What we do with all of decorative pumpkins we set around outside to decorate for the Fall. Yum.

-Pumpkin Seeds

-Pumpkin Pies

-Pumpkin Soup"

I've roasted pumpkins seeds for years.  First you clean them and get the pumpkin goop off them.  She didn't do that.  Then lightly spray oil on the seeds or shake them in batches in a bit of oil. No glops of butter.  I shake a bit of seasoning over most trays.

I saw a recipe with melted butter. Jill is too lazy to even do that. And yes, they need to be cleaned!

I have tossed mine in a small amount of oil.  I don't see how butter would work as well.  And I feel like those uncooked pie crusts are abnormally dark, like gray?  Maybe they have an added ingredient I don't use??

Is she maybe using whole wheat flour?

My mom used to make pumpkin seeds for us when I was a kid.  Aside from thoroughly cleaning and rinsing the seeds, she'd lightly coat the baking pan with shortening or even use spray. Then, she'd spread the seeds out and sprinkle salt on them.  As others have noticed, pats of butter wouldn't distribute evenly and might burn before the seeds were done.

i looked back to see. pancake mix is shown. Weird but that still wouldn't make it gray🤷‍♀️

And that is (well was) a well known brand. Maybe they added something to it to turn it dark like that? Some plexus product?

Are we supposed to be so openly gleeful as great Christians? Where is the empathy for the other side? 

Because the other side are sinners and not the right kind of Christians. When you are the right kind, you can be all smug and happy because you are going straight to heaven when you die. God loves you best.

She's had those decorative pumpkins out for how long?    Where animals can chew on them and other things then just cuts them up to make ugly pies?

 

 

Welp, now we know why Ellen is still in Jill's Plexus downline.   They deserve each other.

Turned out Ellen isn't as accepting as we had hoped she'd be of her liberal, atheist, LGBT child.

I know you roast the seeds (I never have). I looked it  up and it seems you can toss them in light oil before hand but not pats of butter thrown on top. Correct me if I'm wrong. 

I have toasted pumpkin seeds, and you are correct.  Just a little oil and some salt and toast them in the oven.  It is easier to go to the store and buy toasted pumpkin seeds, however.  I don't like all the mess.  I have never seen seeds or nuts "toasted" with butter.

That kitchen is a mismatched shit show.  There are 3 different backsplashes in that one little corner.

That’s not butter.  It’s an off-brand margarine, I’m sure.

If you’ve noticed, they’re now slicking Gideon’s hair back too.  Gawd, I feel so sorry for that poor baby.

I went back and looked at the pictures.  Are they leaving the pumpkin slim on the seeds and just cooking them in margarine?  And she lets her kids eat them?  I understand not wasting food, but I would think I would put my time and resources into cooking something more substantial than slimy seeds and gray piecrust.  But what do I know.  I had stranger food than that at my grandma's house (worst cook ever).

I just made some pea soup in the InstantPot, and I discovered that one of my cats loves peas.

Not a fan of pea soup (I have tried) but I love bean soup of any kind. 

My cat, who eats pretty much everything, leaves peas alone.

The "right kind of Christians" I know think they are going to be airlifted to heaven, leaving the majority of earth's people behind to suffer. No dying involved. I'm pretty sure Jill and David are in that camp because they talk about the glorious rapture. 

Jill's piecrust reminds me of something Earth Mother Christian Kelly Havens would make with buckwheat flour and chia seeds. Looks hard to chew and worse to swallow.

Is Philip photoshopped into that picture as he was in the wedding photos? He looks out of proportion  to me.

the whole picture is a photoshop fail by Jill "I have a knack for graphic design" Rodrigues. Or whomever put it together.

Jill's FB page is just a treasure trove of bullshit right now.  Does anyone else get the impression that Jill thinks she's actually going from living to a whole new place?  She makes it sound like you just move.  Fill up the golden U-Haul kids!!  Mahmo's on her way to 666 Narcissist Road, Heaven 12340.
