Jill, Derick & the Kids: Moving On!!

[louannems]

As ugly as that bridesmaid dress is, I think it's fine that Jill is wearing it.  These girls must have a closet full of ugly bridesmaid dresses; they may as well get some use.  It's only for church, and it saves them having to spend more money on new dresses.

My guess is Anna's because she had the longest add-on white lace modesty ruffle.  Or Jill told Jana she wanted more lace added because she is even more modest.

I also think it's Anna's. She was the tallest bridesmaid and also busty.

And Jill needs to be there because...

[Christina87]

Haha I was thinking the same thing...weird that Jill is wearing a dress from her own wedding! Still, I actually like it on her. It's better quality than 99% of what she wears, imo. Shapeless, frumpy, dark, oversized cotton shirt / top combo is her go-to, for every single occasion. I like that for once, she is wearing a slightly more formal dress, in a pretty bright color. Their bridesmaids dresses are sadly the only ones they've ever bought off the rack at a normal store, at least for Jill and Joy. Now, she needs to take a cue from Jinger and (sometimes) Jessa and find some more clothes with some structure that didn't come from the $1 bin!

Agreed. She gets a gold star for trying.

So I copied and pasted this from the Joe and Kendra page:

From the Dept of Labor:  The Affordable Care Act requires plans and issuers that offer dependent child coverage to make the coverage available until a child reaches the age of 26. Both married and unmarried children qualify for this coverage. This rule applies to all plans in the individual market and to all employer plans.

So doing a little research, because it's a Monday, hot and I have a to-do list a mile long, Jill was born in May of 1991.  Israel was born in 2015 so if Boob was still covering her on his insurance Izzy's c'section would have been covered.  However, Jill turned 26 in May of 2017 and Sammy was born in July of 2017 - meaning that Jill would have been off's Boob's insurance. I wonder if that's way Dereick was so upset that they had hospital bills.  Did Boob not remember his daughter was turning 26? or did he know and tell them that they needed to find their own insurance and they didn't? or with her at around 7 month's pregnant could they not find a plan to pick them up since there was no sign of prenatal care that was remotely affordable?  Hmmmm.  Or they just thought that another birth would have them basking in People covers and TLC money and they wouldn't have to worry about it.  Curious.

Why did they pay for Jill's airfare to be there?  She wasn't a student in the course.  She has Derick on a very short leash and he can't go anywhere without her tagging along. He's a wimp.

I can see Cross Church wanting Jill to be there with her husband.  The program is probably always looking for more marks students.  Her presence shows that the program is not too onerous for a married man with a family.  The church probably also sent some single men as well.  I can also see the church wanting to capitalize on the Duggar fame and Derick is worthless to them without his wife.

Except he was upset about paying medicals bills for a year post-Izzy, not Samuel. I'm sure they're still paying those. 

[Future Cat Lady]

If he had problems paying medical bills, where did he get the money for the "internship"?

I don't understand that if they are going to wear an undershirt can they not match the coleur so it isn't so glaringly obvious or for f*ck's sake just stop buying blouses that you need to wear a modesty tank top under.  In 14 kids they had all of these sewing machines set up like a damn sweat shop and all the older girls were sewing, if you can't find something at the thrift store than make it.  Oh wait, I'm sorry that includes common sense, initiative, work and understanding modesty - and these are the Duggars, so my bad.

[PradaKitty]

In the picture of them at church all of them have ugly footwear.  Okay Dullards, pony up for decent shoes and shoe polish. 

Jill, your outfit doesn’t end with just your dress (which also sucks...)

 Cathy, if you’re going to wear sandals, please have a pedicure!

But then we wouldn't know they're being modest. They'd be like almost every other woman around.

Derick has yet to post anything that any evangelical church I've gone to wouldn't agree with. The more media savvy ones would never specifically target people as Derick has, but they'd make generic anti-trans & anti-gay family posts & be more specific in Sunday School and Bible Study classes.

They’re going to the SBC convention that, until just last week, was going to have Paige Patterson as one of their keynote speakers. Patterson believes that abused women should stay in their marriage and pray for their husbands. He doesn’t think women who are sexually abused by men should go to authorities, especially if that man is attending church. So, yes, lots of Derick’s beliefs fit right in. 

[Marigold]

A little off the immediate topic of pit stains and lazy Derick...

So I couldn't sleep and was deleting stuff on the DVR.  Guess which episode I have?  Jill's entire birth of Izzy.  So I watched the whole episode looking for hints of where a hospital birth was the plan.  I tried to keep an open mind and really look for the hospital birth plan that apparently we all misinterpreted. 

 Both of them clearly state ,repeatedly, that they are planning a home birth.  Over and over.  The only reference to a hospital birth is when Jill says a hospital is her back up plan and then read out her wishes if she needs to go to a hospital.  I saw no hint of them pretending to have a home birth just because TLC & Jim Bob wanted them to say it for ratings.  They had two midwives there and they discussed a home birth.  jill and Derick gave the midwives a tour of their home so they would be familiar with the house. 

Does Derick not know that he was filmed?

I've never seen a recipe for something called "Easy Chicken and Noodles" where the actual chicken is listed as "optional". I think a more truthful name for this dish would be "Easy Sodium and Noodles".  And they always ate this with a big salad and fresh fruit for dessert? Liar, Lair, Pants on Fire! (or should that be "Liar, Lair, Prairie-Skirt-With-A-Modesty-Ruffle on Fire!"?)

So many questions for Chef Jill! Like can we use non Mexican boullion? If I want to add chicken to chicken and noodles, how much? Enlighten me with your skillz!!!

 

She seriously is about two weeks away from posting a recipe for toast at this rate. 

[humbleopinion]

 "Homemade bread" at the Dugg compound was store bought French bread split open and slabs of margarine inserted...then bake until browned...

Salad was straight out of the bag then drowned with salad dressing....

The only flavor in the recipe above is salt.....

Condensed Chix soup-salt

Boullion-salt

You would taste the same amount of chicken in this gut busting recipe if Jilly just waved an unopened  can of chicken meat over the pot....

[Nysha]

That recipe doesn't make any sense. It would be easier and probably cheaper to just go with 5-6 large cans of chicken noodle soup and put in a few drops of sriracha or some chili pepper flakes if you want it a bit spicier.  

[BitterApple]

Holy shit, is that 10 Tablespoons of bullion? That stuff is so salty, you only need to use it sparingly at most. And that's in addition to all that canned soup?! Does Jill give out blood pressure medication for dessert?

[allonsyalice]

What if I don't want to make glorified soup for 18 people? 

[doodlebug]

That ‘recipe’ is an abomination! Why not just cook up a half dozen cans of chicken noodle soup, add a cup of salt, and be done with it?

My father used to make chicken noodle soup from scratch like his mother used to make. The main ingredient? Chicken! A whole one, right in the pot with water, carrots, celery, mushrooms and onions. No canned soup, no bouillon cubes; just real, fresh ingredients.  He and my grandmother would both be weeping to think that anyone would call that concoction chicken noodle soup.

[ginger90]

Yup easy chicken and noodles. Chicken is optional ??

[yogi2014L]

Easy chicken and noodles with optional chicken. WTF. Literally cans of soup from the grocery store would have more nutrition- many of them have vegetables in them. And can actually be pretty good if you don't mind the sodium. I used to eat a can of soup for lunch back when I was on a diet- I would take it to work each day. Easy and filling and low carb ha. Then I stopped being lazy and tried to eat real food. You can usually find cans of soup on sale 1 for $1 so for 20 bucks you can feed 20 people if you get the "good" kind of soup. I would rather eat a can of progressive soup than egg noodles in chicken water. grossssss

She is hopeless. Why can't she go on pinterest and search for chicken soup and try to make something that people might actually want to eat? The worst part is this isn't a " how to cook if you are dead broke" and all you can afford is water bouillon and noodles, it is to feed a crowd!! Does she think anyone in their right minds would feed this to guests?

I was at the grocery store today. There was a magazine with a headline, 5 ingredients, 15 minutes. I would bet all of the recipes were better in every way compared to Jill’s. I didn’t buy it, google is my friend.

[lookeyloo]

Real chicken soup is the easiest thing to make. I make it on a regular basis and I don’t like to fuss. The worst part to me is taking the chicken off the bones because a whole chicken or chicken with bones and skin on really does make the best soup. I wonder if they would like the taste of something real.

[humbleopinion]

Even if it dawned on Jilly that adding shredded chicken off the bone from a store bought, store prepared rotisserie whole chicken and maybe add 10 stalks of chopped celery would make the taste of this salt bomb taste better than adding another bag of noodles to soak up the salty sludge...she is committed to following the recipe she cut and pasted...

Calling bullshit.  We saw them eating in early years and they never had fruit and I would like to see their definition of big salad.  Now onto the recipe.  I do not make chicken noodle soup.  Not a big soup person but I have made homemade other types of soups.  I can see using canned/boxed broth but I am not understanding the condensed soup addition.  It is making me thirsty just reading all of the sodium that is in that.  I am sure its not bad, but more effort please if you are trying to market yourself as a homemaker.  That niche has already been filled with Ree Drummond and Sandra Lee.

The only time I ever recall seeing fruits and vegeables was during their early 14&Pregnant Again special when they still lived in the Johnson Rd. house. I remember thinking the only reason they splurged on real food was because TLC probably paid for it and Boob was doing his damndest to sell the "wholesome family" shtick in hopes of getting a regular series. Aside from that, it's been slop casseroles and instant oatmeal all the way.

Jill's trying to get a show for herself and her piece-of-dog-shit husband.  It's going to be called The Hopeless Homemaker.

Seriously, I'm floored at her idiocy.  I didn't watch the show in the early years, so I rely on you folks for those horror stories from that time.  

She's so clueless, it's really sad.  Anyone who tries to make her abomination version of anything is just pitiable.

Well, I suppose you could try cutting the recipe into quarters, but since that would probably require higher math, it's probably safer to just make the whole thing and toss out the leftovers. 

Seriously, though...how is this even a recipe? There's nothing real in it at all. It even says the single onion can be replaced by onion powder and the actual chicken is "optional".
