In September, episode 15-4 of Cook's Country on PBS featured Tater Tot Hotdish. It was explained as having been developed during the Great Depression as a way of stretching the food budget. Hosts Julia and Bridget loved it.

An improved version without the cream of mushroom soup and with parmesan incorporated with the cream sauce.

Maybe Jana needs her own thread as a token of the respect she’ll never garner as a single woman in Gothardland.

How about both hop in the plane close the door really quickly and fly off.  Abbie: "Where are we going?" JD: Cayman Islands. We're elope. And we're not coming back! Abbie: Wait we need

Wow, so this is what, the fourth guy to publicly release a statement denying involvement with Jana? That must be doing wonders for her self-esteem.  These guys are starting to piss me off, though

Dehumidifier, the link you shared was from WSKG-TV. Are you from Binghamton? That's my hometown (well, actually, Johnson City is) and I used to work at WSKG about 30 years ago!

Exactly.  They are smug and self righteous and shove their perverse version of Christianity down everyone's throat but they can't even seem to live the life they claim is the One Best Way in a way that makes their choice look positive or even happy.  It's just one big sad mess.

They now have broccoli cheddar tots and they are not bad. Has anyone tried them? I doubt the J crew has heard of them.

I've tried them...they are decent, but, I have to admit that I do like tater tots, and have to keep myself from buying them, because I'd probably eat the bag in two sittings. Sometimes I splurge on a bag when Mr Jyn is away. I've also made zucchini tots from scratch for the Grand-Jynlets, and they go over well.

I'm tot neutral. I don't mind them, but I don't seek them out. 

That sums up how I feel about them.  A few weeks ago I had a skillet at Perkins that had "smashed" tots.  It was very good.  It was smashed into small crispy bits of potato that were really tasty.

What luck! The LI PBS station WLIW (21 in the NYC area) is showing this very episode at 3:30PM today, per the guide. In addition to the tater tot hotdish, it features corn strippers, buckeye candies and Wisconsin butter burgers. Check your local PBS station!

I agree! I sometimes have mixed feelings when we tear into the women about their housekeeping because their spouses can and should pitch in and share responsibility for the filth and chaos we've seen. I firmly believe everyone should know basic cooking and cleaning and laundry stuff. That's just basic adulting skills.

But at the same time, they're the ones harping on and on about these divisions of labor and preening over how superior they are for their beliefs, so it's also a matter of holding them accountable to their own weird rules. Y'all have one job, and you can't even do that right. 

Yes. These are people that constantly lament about gender roles and women’s work- but NONE of the women seem to excel at the tasks they are supposed to be able to do! (Except for Jana, who seems pretty handy at decor and gardening) And given there are so many of them, and it’s a HOLIDAY, the effort just looks so poor. Of course not everyone is going to be the most excellent cook or housekeeper or decorator, but between all of them (again besides Jana) can they put something together?

 

Also the men in the Lonely J’s can cook too. Or go to the store and bring in put away the groceries so someone could cook it. Work was often divided by gender among my elders but the older men did DO things until they were physically incapable. What did any of the men at home do to help prepare for the holiday? Shop? Scrub the floor? Garbage duty?

Referring to "garbage duty" reminds me of Anna smugly bragging that was FF's domain, famously adding, "At least I HAVE a husband." 

That aged like milk. 

And I think she was lying, or at least greatly exaggerating. I simply cannot believe that lazy slob regularly took out the garbage. This is the guy who made her carry the luggage on their wedding night and who routinely strutted ahead of her in public, leaving her struggling to herd all the kids by herself. 

I could see Josh taking out the garbage once in a blue moon and then expecting her to lavish him with praise and thanks (and pouting like a child if she didn’t), but not as a regular chore.

The guy spray-painting the car was downwind, so he must have been inhaling the paint spray. 

Seems like a lot of trouble for nothing.  I never will figure out the allure of these gender reveals.   

It gave James a chance to show off his mastery of heavy machinery. 🙄

The first picture tells you everything you need to know about what a rip roaring good time everyone is having. The smiles, excitement, and wonderment leap out at you. Norman Rockwell couldn’t do it Justice. 
 

Every night is family night for this family. How is this different? Not many marrieds made it. At least Jill, Jinger, and Joy have stepped somewhat out of the herd mentality.

Why they made that dining room so narrow has always bugged me.  Add a foot or two to make access to the table easy and please, please keep the bathroom door closed.  Why that was stuck there was another mystery.

What a joyless crew.

Could it be because it was a pre fab home? Maybe they couldn’t customize it to meet their needs. I agree with you, close that bathroom door, rubes.

It was a customizable steel frame home they made from multiple kits so it was fully the Duggar design which means Jim Bob set it up to be a long skinny room.

Little Fernie - her hair! I wonder how long before Jessa insists she has wavy/curly hair like her siblings? I think Henry and Ivy were around 2 before the curls were forced.

I must go back to school and learn how to read because I read this little Fennie getting her fur permmed. But then I remembered that my kids gave the dog a makeover and dyed the white cat purple with Grape Kool-Aid and I understood.

Even with the smaller crowd they're using disposable dinnerware. Their stryofoam will be in that landfill forever. 

What is it with these people and styrofoam? I refuse to use styrofoam products, they disintegrate if you try to cut anything on your plate, it's wasteful, and it's tacky. I don't think it's cheaper than paper plates. What is the attraction?

If it wasn't for his hateful beliefs, learned helplessness, and arrogance, I would feel bad for Ben. Derick is a lawyer, Jeremy will have a good for nothing PhD in divinity, but he will grift his way into a cushy job, and maintain the LA lifestyle.

What does Ben have? He is a pastor of a church without a congregation. He and his wife sank thousands remodeling a house they do not own. Even if the deed is on their name eventually he is stuck. A baby every two years a la Anna Smuggar. What a terrible existence for someone who was so bright eyed and bushy tailed when he began courting the "hot Duggar daughter." What a waste of a college degree. No ambition there, just resentment towards Jessa.

Austin will never be interested in pursuing a college education and that's fine.  I don't think everyone is college material, and if there is no interest a degree is worthless. But Austin hustles, builds houses, goes on hunting trips, is a small aircraft pilot, and ski dives. Of the sons in law Ben is the only one who has no sense of direction, no friends, no hobbies, nothing to show for after selling his soul to the devil JB. Papa Seewald must be so proud of his first born son.

I have only used a styrofoam plate maybe once in the last 10  years. We were on vacation and went to the local grocery/liquor store (this was in the real boonies) and bought a coffee cake for breakfast the next morning as we were leaving super early. That is all they had and they were cheap at a $1. I brought them home but hated to use them for anything but maybe a snack.
