Come on back tonight for a little chat

"What do you think of my new table, Bethenny? I had originally wanted to spell out Zarin Fabrics but Brad said it wouldn't fit."
We're going to need to talk--not only is there a new episode of Real Housewives of New York City tonight, but immediately following is the Real Housewives of New Jersey preview special. It's like a dream come true!
Here's a little feast for the eyes (and YES, Zoila appears to be wearing her uniform on the red carpet):

Manzo and the Mafia???
"Mr. Manzo’s father, who weighed 350 pounds but was known as Tiny, ran unsuccessfully for mayor of Paterson before buying the Brownstone in the 1970s. In 1983, he was found dead in the trunk of his Lincoln Continental with four bullet wounds to his chest. The crime was never solved."

I missed the New Jersey HWs--must catch it soon.
I thought Kelly was going to swallow up Max on that date--her mouth is like an endless cavern.
Jill's condo made me dizzy.
And I had to laugh when the Countess said Simon looked like an "80s aerobics instructor"--it was spot on!
All you tardy bitches can catch the RHONJ preview on Bravo's website. That show is like tater tot casserole -- it's so gross, but I just can't stop.
OMG! I just watched RHONJ preview, it's intense. Caroline acts like she's gonna have somebody disposed of if they step out of line! Oy Vey!
Cricket - That is exactly the thought I had when I saw the preview. They seem like a very closed off group of family relationships. I'll give it a chance but if it's just a bunch of yelling, family tiffs and over the top shopping nonstop I'm outta there. I like the other 3 HW franchises but they are all individuals and not related. Like Caroline said "I don't like you before I like you."
As soon as I saw...Caroline, I think, and her mentions of being a close family, I kind of screamed at my tv that they were basically The Sopranos. Welcome to New Jersey.
(And, being from Jersey myself, these women in no way reflect the whole state. Just North Jersey. They do tend to act like that.)
I wonder how long it'll take Jill to realize that her "POP" table can be rearranged to say "Odd"?
Fitting.
Btw, I live in the town next to Franklin Lakes, NJ
-be afraid... Be VERY afraid.
Enjoy, lovelies!
