Mockingbird

Meh.

Ditto on the KY girl. I would be happy with either Kelsey or Eric winning.

If anyone is still watching Top Chef and saw last night's episode with guest judge Abe Conlon, hey, I know that guy! I've known him since he had a day job working at Whole Foods and did popup events to try to get going as a chef. Now he's all Hollywood and gone is the man-bun. Heh. One of my most fun, interesting, and delicious dinners ever was a Halloween event, which was themed Little Sock Hop of Horrors and included costumes, attitude, and dancing. Each course of food was a high school class with a horror take, i.e. Biology class was a frog pinned down with arms and legs stretched out and some blood on the plate. No frog in the dish - each body part was some component of a delicious dish. His restaurant is Fat Rice in Chicago. We brought a foodie relative there a few years ago and he still says it was one of the best meals of his life.

I couldn't resist. https://www.target.com/gift-registry/giftgiver?registryId=8a390b73adb943619f044444b46b2ae3&type=GENERIC&occasionType=HOUSEWARMING It's for a housewarming. Ultra strong toilet paper. 'Nuff said.

I didn't like the blue one either. The sleeves were too long, wide, and yes, tlh9, oddly thick. And with the all the material on her arms, the hemline was too long. Maybe she's looking for a new career as a schoolmarm. And AVorlon, there will never come a time when I'm unable to find a criticism of Julie's outfit.

I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your Possum, tlh9.

Tomato don't understand irony, do they? They think they've been betrayed because their alliance members didn't stab one of their alliance members in the back like they were instructed.

I don't buy the ficus story either. It makes no sense. It wouldn't have been that hard to throw that together for the veto comp. Who knows how long he was telling them he wanted out? They could have gotten him to delay his exit until they worked out a suitable (that's debatable) story. I think they also would have promoted the shit out of Mooch being a ficus if he was and he would have been giving all kinds of stupid DRs about it.

I'm not sure someone quitting ("I'm not a quitter.") qualifies as a shocking new twist.

He's an "actor" and from his IMDB page, it looks like he gets regular work. Weird. He seems really familiar to me, not OLD trial-watching me, but I can't imagine I've watched any of the titles listed for him. He seems likable enough. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0005073/?ref_=fn_al_nm_1

Was one of her many babies a girl? A girl with a lot of dolls dressed in frilly nonsense? Did Julie think the toybox was her closet?

His exuberance makes me tired.

Aw, man. Some scary news from Kevin: I hope everything turns out ok.

The tribe swap is too soon, but that doesn't bother me nearly as much as the new "we have to name our alliance" nonsense.

Word on the new team: https://themuse.jezebel.com/karlie-kloss-and-christian-siriano-have-joined-the-new-1829663762 Nina is the only one returning.
