We could only buy hard liquor from package stores (that is still the case) that were dark and forbidding (now they are well lit and huge) and we couldn’t buy alcohol on Sundays (that only changed a few years ago). I don’t think we have curbside pick up at package stores, but I know we do at Joann Fabrics because I send my hubby there at least twicE as week (stuck at home because I am high risk). Right now you can even order cocktails with your to go order from restaurants- wow, what a huge difference demographic changes and time can make in terms of me being able to get my adult beverage of preference 😁 3 Link to comment

I also remember when they finally lifted that mandate - you could buy liquor from a 7/11 like beer after 12:00 PM on Sundays. Funny true story. Grocery store shopping has been a nightmare in my neck of the woods. You wait on line for up to an 1 1/2 just to get in and then there is nothing on the shelves. Forget about those weekly flyers - they are useless nothing is there. The one section that I never have problems with is the produce section. Why - because most people don't know how to cook. Give someone a head of brocolli and they'll look at it like it's an alien life form. But the frozen food aisle with brocolli in nukeable steam bags - those are GONE. Anyhoo - I wanted to make chicken picata and I needed lemons. I go to the store and not one lemon not even any limes which I could have used as a substitute. So I decided to make roast chicken instead. It wasn't until I was on my way home that I realized it's not that all the lemons and limes were sold out because people know how to cook dishes with them. It's because what people do know how to make are MIXED alcoholic drinks using lemons and limes. 7 hours ago, Door County Cherry said: It's less about attitudes changing and more about hospitals not wanting to be overwhelmed by alcoholics in withdrawal during a pandemic. Agreed Door County Cherry! That's what happened in NY. The hospitals were so overwhelmed by COVID patients there weren't enough beds. All bars are shut down. I don't know what the EMT's, police force or the hospitals would have done if they had to deal with people in the throes of alcohol withdrawal on top of everything else. Sorry - this is the LVP thread. I know I rag on LVP and Ken quite a bit - I don't like them much. But I do think they make great TV and I do hope their businesses survive and I do hope they are healthy and their pets are okay. 8 Link to comment

Seriously though, I think LVP has plenty of real work - aka not vanity projects funded by her hubby - that she's plenty busy with that and the train wreck that is VRs. She never needed this show to begin with, and she was the only one who didn't need it, and hence walked away. The Ho's that have real money and real jobs can walk away, like Adrienne Malouf. As for her watching, I hope she is, and I hope she's laughing and laughing and laughing at Vyle getting her just desserts with this stellar editing job!

suomi May 24, 2020 Share May 24, 2020 Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum Lisa Vanderpump commented after Kyle Richards posted about her beefs with costars Garcelle Beauvais, Denise Richards, Erika Jayne and Dorit Kemsley. “Trying to think of one time anyone defended me,” the former child star, 51, tweeted on Wednesday, May 20, as the drama played out on the latest episode of the Bravo hit. “Like maybe now would be a good time [Lisa] Rinna #rhobh.” “Errr you did have a very good friend @LisaVanderpump but when she was mourning and going through a difficult time you all turned on her like a pack of wolves…….” a fan replied. “True dat,” the restaurateur, 59, responded in a comment captured by Bravosnarkside on Instagram. https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/lisa-vanderpump-weighs-in-on-kyle-richards-drama-with-costars/ 1 4 6 Link to comment

ShawnaLanne August 3, 2020 Share August 3, 2020 (edited) So Cedric did an interview about LVP and Ken which basically stated his last straw was being asked to eat the staff meals at one of their restaurants. Okay, I totally believe (not) that he gave up a free house in Beverly Hills because of that and Ken and Lisa didn't kick him out. Lol. On the other hand, I can't remember the reasons they gave for kicking him out, but I'm sure they were shady. Everything about that relationship/friendship was off. Too much of a power differencial. He claimed that Ken was a huge cheater and liked to visit prostitutes, which I can see. He also claimed Lisa had a big makeout session with the Captain of their yacht, which I can also see. What I don't understand is why these people think it would matter. I don't watch the Real Housewives for their morality and their actions didn't hurt anyone else. They didn't fake cancer and run a scam. They didn't try to destroy someone elses marriage, they didnt accuse someone of wanting to slip another person a mickey to rape them. I really don't care, as long as no one else is damaged what people do in their private lives. High stakes stuff, not a supposed planted article about dog placement. Last year and this year the coven failed to understand this. I will turn on liking someone on a dime if I perceive them as being a bully. See Slurinda and the last two years.
