Automne April 26, 2020 Share April 26, 2020 The design makes it look like it’s supposed to be displayed in a cabinet and not actual dinnerware to be used. Given that it is likely to be cheap junk that would easily chip, scratch, and break from normal use, you probably should only display it. 3 Link to comment

CharlizeCat April 29, 2020 Share April 29, 2020 (edited) I thought Sarah Ferguson was stripped of her "Duchess" title. I was watching a YouTube documentary (produced by royal biographers in the UK) about her over the weekend and I thought I heard that when she "fell from grace" and divorced Andrew, she also lost her royal title. I always liked Fergie. I thought she was fun and a breath of fresh air into the stuffy royal family. Back in the '80s, when Fergie was a spokesperson for Weight Watchers, she gave a presentation at my workplace. One of her hostesses who she was meeting with brought in her MIL's sterling silver tea service to give her a proper English tea (as far as Yankees could!) Everybody who met her said she was lovely and gracious. As her meetings were with departments on my floor, I kept hoping I'd run into her in the "loo!" 42 minutes ago, Kohola3 said: I am equally sick of the endless episodes of Chopped which I hate.

chabelisaywow April 30, 2020 Share April 30, 2020 (edited) Shelter in place makes you do crazy things. I bought the audio version of her book. There were many chapters devoted to her courtship with Ladd AKA Marlboro Man. Did her brother Mike pass away? I thought he did - but a google search doesn't confirm.

Dineen May 2, 2020 Share May 2, 2020 Yes, you are too old for this! https://www.facebook.com/thepioneerwoman/videos/246352583389764 Yesterday at 9:17 PM · Road ballet is my new evening hobby. I’m working on my grand jeté, but it isn’t pretty and I need more time to perfect the art of getting my bottom off the ground. This is a little more difficult considering it is no longer 1987. So here’s a little Waltz of the Flowers. I’m too old for this and I don’t care, which is a nice feeling. 1 Link to comment
Dineen May 2, 2020 Share May 2, 2020 (edited) What a disgusting grilled "sandwich" she just made. High in fat and calories-enough to put anyone in a diabetic coma. Instead of saying "holy, holy, holy" it should be "coma coma coma." And I don't believe she cuts her own hair-even an inch. Wouldn't her hair be very uneven-cutting your own hair is hard to do well.

Dineen May 6, 2020 Share May 6, 2020 I saw a few of her shows today, several in a row. In one of the staying home episodes, she did make a funny joke-the one about her kimono could be used to scare away a preditor. Although no one should wear that by an open flame. Did she wear that to hide weight gain? I don't know. She was very clumsy in last few show where her kids tape the show. She doesn't do that with her normal professional team. I saw a show with Ladd cooking. I wonder about their marriage. The Marlboro woman said that it is not a real marriage, it was more of an arranged marriage because the ranch needed an infusion of cash. That is really a business arrangement, a marriage of convenience, and medieval in my opinion, and for both of them, a tragedy in a way if it is true. I could not imagine being sold off like that.

CharlizeCat May 8, 2020 Share May 8, 2020 I remember Marlboro Woman. She had this crazy website where she had Barbie dolls re-enacting life on the ranch. I think Marlboro woman was BSC. She came up with all kinds of weird stuff. She had "Ladd" (Ken doll) having a gay affair with a ranch hand. Then, she had him having a secret affair with a Native American princess who somehow lived on the ranch. The Lucille Ball Barbie doll played Ree. It was nuts. If you think we harsh towards Ree, MM was downright vicious. She also told some outlandish story that she won some kind of contest to go to the ranch, but her kids had head lice and Ree uninvited her. I don't even know if that's true and in any case, the decent thing to do would be decline the invitation or ask to reschedule. Head lice is very contagious and all of the Drummond kids had to have been pretty young. I believe her website no longer exists. If Ree & Co. sent her a C&D letter, I would applaud. I don't care for Ree, but sheesh ... What bothered me most was that somebody had so much time on their hands that they would go to such lengths to try to defame somebody. I had to admit that MM did a pretty spot-on job with her make-believe depiction, but enough is enough! Good riddance. 2 Link to comment
Dineen May 9, 2020 Share May 9, 2020 1 hour ago I remember Marlboro Woman. She had this crazy website where she had Barbie dolls re-enacting life on the ranch. I think that was a different website, I can't recall the name. But it wasn't The Marlboro Woman website. Marlboro Woman did not use the Barbie dolls. The doll stuff was kind of funny. I remember reading somewhere that Ladd was romantically involved with a native American girl, and they had a child together, but he did not marry her. I don't know whether or not this is true. It might not be, because if it was true, how could it be kept out of the media? I remember the Marlboro woman lives in Tulsa, so it is possible her extreme dislike was due to a bad interaction with Ree, or someone in her family. So much hostility does not come out of nowhere. People who don't screw with others rarely have enemies. I remember reading about a different food blogger who was invited to the ranch. I remember she was from the east coast, and had been looking forward to it. When she got there, she was ignored, and said that Ree didn't have much food in the house (!!!!!!!) and that things seemed off. She also said that she could not shake the feeling that Ree "was somehow being used." Now that is interesting. The almost no food in the house when you are expecting company.....HMMMMM. And having kids, and a lot of money. I will try to find the name of the food blogger who wrote that. I do know that it was written a long time ago. Link to comment
Dineen May 9, 2020 Share May 9, 2020 It was the Pie near woman. It popped into my head. There is also a different website "The pioneer woman Sux," that was good too. The Pie near woman is also on twitter. I will try to find the website. 2 Link to comment

Dineen May 9, 2020 Share May 9, 2020 (edited) The Pioneer Woman - Ree Drummond 22 hrs · Scenes from this Saturday’s “Staying Home” episode, shot entirely by my pookie heads. (Every now and then I check a camera angle to make sure it’s not pointed at the ceiling, but it’s 99% in their hands.) This week’s show is fun, because Ladd, my boys, and my father-in-law show up and an impromptu arm wrestling tournament unfolds. Everything’s a competition, man! (Oh, and swipe forward for the dishes I make, uh muh guh.) Family and food...It was a delicious day for many reasons. I hope you’re enjoying these shows, and I hope you’re doing well.

Dineen May 17, 2020 Share May 17, 2020 I am bored on this very rainy day and did a google search. Saw this about the princess: The Drummonds have a long history of being cited by police for 100+ mph driving. I guess when you have lots of money you can get off pretty easy and multiple times. Until one of them ends up killing someone and gets sued for millions will it stop. According to an Osage County court clerk in the state of Oklahoma, cattleman Ladd has been pulled over “a total of 25 times” – and that’s just in one county! According to an Osage county clerk, Ree’s license was suspended for six months in 2001 following her failure to pay off a ticket she received for failure to carry insurance 1 Link to comment

Dineen May 17, 2020 Share May 17, 2020 Just what I want to envision... Ree's huge pale feet. Barf! I once watched her make peanut butter and jelly sandwiches on her "cooking" show. How is that a recipe? Most of her dishes are things like browning ground beef and putting them on tortilla chips to make nachos, you don't say?! Silly basic stuff. I don't know how she has a show. You're doing better than me if you made through even one episode. I just can't handle that ugly mug of hers and flip to another channel every ti Also, tons of cheese and butter, in every single dish! Paula Deen the Second. I don't know how anyone can stand to listen to that woman talk. It's like fingernails on a chalkboard to me. And a total fake. I truly do not know how she has a show.

I have a few friends with food blogs that are seriously talented and also lovely, self deprecating, hard working and beautiful. I don't know how this woman has a show and these others don't. Fully funded by her rich husband. He's the sexy hard-working ranch hand for sure, but total trust funder. She got her hooks in that and I believe that's the only reason she's on the air. Fake Fake Fake. I love the Food Network so it's on a lot but I change the channel as soon as I see her but not before I watch for a little while to laugh at whatever silly recipe she's about to make.

patty1h May 23, 2020 Share May 23, 2020 Why did Ree have to use dinosaur shaped chicken nuggets in today's show? She is so annoying in her infantilizing of her kids. These are grown-ass women in college, with boyfriends, and she giggles at the fun of serving them chicken marketed to young children. I know Ree has a brother with special needs and my opinion is that she grew up in the habit of speaking to him in an upbeat and hyper-peppy way and she just is not able to turn it off. On the other hand, whatever daughter was behind the camera today responds to Ree's perky statements with the deadest monotone I've heard in a long time. Ooof, it was painful listening to Ree sounding like she's on happy pills and her kid sounding like she just woke up. 1 1 Link to comment
Dineen May 24, 2020 Share May 24, 2020 The Pioneer Woman - Ree Drummond 1 hr · I just wanted to let you know that you can bake frozen chicken nuggets (regular or dinosaur shaped; I used both), then top them with a little spoonful of good marinara, grated Parmesan, a tiny sprinkle of Italian seasoning, and a quarter slice of provolone, then broil them until the cheese is melted and serve them on a platter with fresh basil leaves if you want a super elegant appetizer to serve your guests. (Or just a dang snack for your kids.) Bye this is from her facebook page. Is she defending her dinosaur nuggets? Even regular chicken nuggets are not "super elegant." Does she read this blog? We will never know. I agree that she can be annoying when she giggles and makes stupid jokes and acts like she is on anphetamines. 3 Link to comment

She did saute a couple of fresh vegetables, then added a packet of taco seasoning, ground beef, a can of beans, frozen corn, and a jar of salsa. Then she topped it with a bag of Fritos. All that was lacking were a cocktail and a tablescape. 3 1 Link to comment
