Jesus was Jewish. Hyram.

I’m guessing it smelled like Coppertone.

Bobby was very Zen and did you notice that you never really saw him move his legs? Like he would float from space to space as if on a hoverboard, and there’d be a scene where two or more of the housewives would be going at it and he’d just appear, suddenly, quietly, and no one would be startled, like I would be.

Too late to the game, and grey, but I feel like I must give a nod to all the commenters like you who I really enjoy reading. The staff goes up and down and there’s always been lots of turnover but some of the commenters have always been top-notch.

Didn’t something similar to this happen on the Real Housewives of New York? Did you grow up to be Sonja Morgan or “Countess” LuAnn de Lessups? Although I can’t believe that either of them has ever been to a bookstore, let alone worked in one. But the naked Venezuelan horse trainer in the Hamptons has RHONY written all…

Yes! It’s Hanukkah, the Festival of Lights.

One of the first things anyone who takes an economics class learns is that “economics” is derived from the Greek term for “household management.”

When I was broke in college I decided to host a birthday dinner for a British friend of mine. He wanted something quintessentially American so I made the “classic” hamburger helper, a “salad” of iceberg lettuce, beefsteak tomatoes, and blue cheese dressing, and TWO Betty Crocker mix cakes. I fed eight hungry…

If you have access to a decent deli liverwurst can do a passable impersonation of pate.

Pinkham is over on Wonkette!

It’s the crystal champagne bucket that takes it up a notch. I was in a Williams Sonoma once looking at bundt pans (don’t judge, lots of them that you find elsewhere are crap, and by the way RIP Chuck Williams, who lived to be 100) and the woman next to me said to her companion, “That seems like a lot for a jello mold.”

Have ever tried cooking out of Mid Century Menu? Friends and I have, several times, and I would never make anything I tried again. As far as we can tell:

That, at least, is edible.

To experience the full horror, allow me to translate the ingredients for the filling (the “Soße”.)

Did your mother use leftover spaghetti?

Dick Cheney once famously said, “Reagan proved that deficits don’t matter.” Richard Nixon once said, “In a sense we are all Keynesians now.” Franklin D. Roosevelt reined in spending in 1936 and America’s Depression worsened in 1937. The last two times America saw a budget surplus was in 1999 and 2000, when Bill…

Something tells me that when Andy Cohen was growing up in St. Louis he didn’t attend First Presbyterian.

The world needs far more plumbers, carpenters, masons, electricians, mechanics, members of the trades of all sorts. The world doesn’t need any more viral marketing change agents or savvy content curators or dynamic disruptors who are thought leaders and influencers. (Note: For those in the first sentence you don’t…

That dog is the best. That pillow though…

That’s a cropped version of the image that appears on the cover of Yoko’s “Season of Glass” album, which was released shortly after the murder. Just for the historical record. Hard to imagine that was 35 years ago already.
