flyingdi February 21, 2017 Share February 21, 2017 Some of these kids that never show emotion are putting it all on display. Examples-Jessa and John David. Liked John David`s," She better not forget us" speech. Liked Josie`s "Jeremy will be a good husband and they'll have a good time." Did not sound like something a six year old would say. 2 Link to comment
Bayarea4 February 21, 2017 Share February 21, 2017 My favorite moment so far was when Josiah[?] said the big V stood for "Vuolo," and Jason playfully corrected him. "No. Voilà." My jaw dropped. Jason knows French? There's hope for him yet. 3 Link to comment

Spencer Hastings February 21, 2017 Share February 21, 2017 (edited) I love it when TLC trolls. When Jinger left the airport with Babe, someone made sure to get a shot of the big ol "Protect yourself from the Zika virus!" sign. Beautiful. Which boy asked Cindy if she was in love with the V? So great! I can't with Jeremy's whisper voice. It irritates the heck out of me. Jinger can be really cute sometimes. Her "I'm not nervous. I'm chill. I'm talking a thousand miles per hour!" before the wedding vibes were refreshing. She also didn't waste any time ditching the sleeves next week! Go Jinger, go!

BitterApple February 21, 2017 Share February 21, 2017 So my husband was working on his computer while this was on and about 2/3 of the way through he said "How do you watch this? They just keep repeating the same shit over and over." Yeah, that about sums it up. I have to admit that by Duggar standards this was a pretty decent wedding. Michael and Josie were adorable walking down the aisle. Jinger was a cool bride. No diva antics and she seemed appreciative of everyone's efforts. Finally, how much hair do you guys think ended up in those cupcakes? Do none of those women own hair nets or rubber bands? Hello, OSHA violations. 8 Link to comment

Barb23 February 21, 2017 Share February 21, 2017 7 hours ago, what said: BUCKETSBUCKETSBUCKETSBUCKETS OMG shut up! As well as "STRESSED." Joy was stressing me out by constantly saying it. I can't believe all the hoo-ha about the "V". It was nice but it took 2+ days & how many people to move & construct it for just a 1 hour (if that) ceremony. I wonder what became of it. Did Joe bring the refrigerated truck to haul it back to the TTC for the after party (along with the 1/2 ton tree trunks)? If I was Cindy I'd be pissed about the buckets too. After texting 4 of them to remind them to bring the buckets& them replying they would, they end up forgetting them. Then when they get the buckets they are filthy including a mouse carcass. I'm sure the Jag was from the field known as Duggar Motors. Can't believe all the loose hair in the food prep. Haven't these women heard of hairnets or at least ponytails? The wedding cake gal was grossing me out with her long loose tresses. 6 Link to comment

Ben did that to Jessa at Jill's or one of the Bates girl's weddings first. Are they fucking Neanderthals or what!? All that was missing was them clubbing them and dragging them off by their hair! It's someone else's wedding...bridesmaids and groomsmen will not necessarily be married to or courting one another, as most bridesmaids are single. They are simply performing a function for a formal event...not having sex with one another, so why the outrage? Just get together at the reception already! Even Queen Victoria couldn't always be escorted by her husband due to tradition and protocol, and she was the fecking queen of the wealthiest nation at that time. Sometimes, Bin and Dreck, ya just gotta fall in line with protocol and good manners. 8 Link to comment
Portia February 21, 2017 Share February 21, 2017 10 hours ago, dorcastrilling said: During the rehearsal, while they scanned the church, I swear there sat Josh, face turned sideways. Also, why do all these people call the altar the stage? Why do you call the stage an altar? ;-) Different types of churches have different terminology. In the Lutheran churches I grew up in, we used the word "altar" to describe not the raised front part of the church (which you seem to be suggesting) but the table that was the focal point of worship and that held the communion elements, offering plates, crucifix, etc. But I've never heard anyone in an evangelical church call anything an "altar." (If there's a table, it's usually called the "Lord's supper table," in my experience.) In those churches I usually hear the raised front area of the sanctuary/nave/auditorium/whatever called the "platform," but I don't think it's surprising that it gets referred to as "stage" since so many modern sanctuaries have a somewhat theatrical design. Anyway, long story short, I can't get judge-y about minor variations in vocabulary. Different strokes. 3 Link to comment

Absolom February 21, 2017 Share February 21, 2017 10 hours ago, dorcastrilling said: Also, why do all these people call the altar the stage? Because they're Baptists or cousins to Baptists and that's what they do or at least the ones I know do. They also call the nave the auditorium at times. The actual altar is normally a table. The area around the altar has a different "official" name that varies by denomination. For Catholics it's the sanctuary and what Methodists call the sanctuary is called the nave in the Catholic church. Lutherans and Methodists call the area around the altar the chancel. Although some Methodists resist calling the communion table an altar. They do "altar calls" at the chancel railing if they have one. Baptists I have known tend to avoid the term altar thus the stage. Most current day Baptist churches seem to avoid having a permanent table on the stage/chancel and roll in a table on wheels or a cart to use as a communion table. All of which does make "altar calls" now an interesting term. Thus the Duggars who are Baptists of one form another tend to use the stage and auditorium terminology. The church where they had the reception even converts their worship area into a reception area for rental. Thus it's not as surprising that the Duggars are not as reverent in church as many expect. They used to use a warehouse after all. 3 Link to comment

Some women breeze through menopause, and some women (like my mother) almost lose their mind. My mother told me that when she went through menopause, she felt the urge to just walk out of the house, leaving her babies and never look back. This was way back in the day before treatment and stuff. She said it took everything within her to maintain her sanity. So maybe Michelle deserves our compassion and prayers rather than beat-downs. I ragged on her too and because of what you pointed out, I am now ashamed. 9 Link to comment

I can't imagine how terribly women are devalued after their baby making years have ended. I think Michelle wants to feel invisible because that's how she is made to feel. Jill, take heed -- you may be feeling smug and self-important right now because your fertility is on display, but this is what your future looks like. 5 Link to comment
BitterApple February 21, 2017 Share February 21, 2017 (edited) One thing I forgot to mention earlier in regards to the shower. I wish these girls would realize that unless everyone gets to participate in the games, it's really boring to be a guest and sit there through endless rounds of "who knows Jinger and Jeremy best". When I looked at the people at the surrounding tables, everyone was propping themselves up by their elbows and fighting to keep their eyes open. I also agree the flower wall was a complete waste of time and energy. I actually felt bad for the kids who got roped into making that thing because you know it got chucked into the church dumpster at the end of the night.

bigskygirl February 21, 2017 Author Share February 21, 2017 I do feel bad for Michelle at times. She does need some serious therapy. Oh heck, the whole family needs some major therapy. My problem with Michelle is the fact she calls out certain groups of people and calls them child rapists and molesters and tells them their are evil and are ruining the world while she covered up the fact her son is a molester and goes along with blaming women who have been molested, raped and sexual abused by men. She also wants to take away certain people's rights and act like she is superior to everyone who does not agree with her. She loves being the center of attention and uses her children and grandchildren to get the attention. She is entitled to her opinions, but she also does not mind using others to further her religious and political opinions. Link to comment
asuwur February 21, 2017 Share February 21, 2017 Once again, in their interview at the end, Babe made it clear that he's in no hurry to produce his very own howler....we'll see if I'm wrong because next week is sure to produce an announcement of some sort; although I'm thinking based on the foreshadowing, it'll be Joy and Austin's engagement and not a Laredo Little One.... 2 Link to comment
BitterApple February 21, 2017 Share February 21, 2017 (edited) Michelle has looked heavily medicated all season. For me, it was never more apparent than during the dress buying trip when Jinger was asking her to help in the dressing room and Michelle was completely tuned out. Jessa had to practically clap her hands in front of Michelle's face to break the benzo haze before telling her to go with Jinger. I did think she looked pretty at the wedding, mullet and orange spray tan aside. That jewel toned purple was a good color for her and a nice change from the orange and lime frump shirts.

I'm not a professional baker, but for a naked cake ( one w/o frosting) I do think you can bake and freeze the layers ahead of time and put the berries on close to serving time. Berries might run, if they are on a cake too long. Cupcakes I know you can do ahead of time. Here's their cake , curtesy of people magazine. Did they have only the one cake?
