Kate is a twit...Thanks for the links.

Kate did seem more relaxed than she did in Baltimore. I have to say that in those skinny jeans you can really see how thin she has become.

I'm not sure, but... I think we're being bullied, here.

Well, thank goodness this doesn't apply to me. I'm not psychotic, just paranoid, according to one of my multiples.

"Paige is so lucky to have met me. It's such an honor for her."

====

I thought that too. Her body language in Paige's twitter pic looks like she's saying Well here I am. Feast your eyes on me.

I wonder if TFW would have done this on her own or if the Wingman advised her to do it. Kite, invoit er to join yu. It wool be gude for yu imige or whatevah.

I guess she'd better clean up her act if she wants a cooking show. What a mess!

@kateplusmy8 Changing the way folks perceive U one face at a time...#LoveIsInTheMix Winning in Canada! :)

Oh, Milo, Milo, Milo. You're talking through your hat again. You said that the world loves Kate. Canada loves Kate. So if they are changing the way they perceive Kate, then that means their love is turning to dislike...or it means that Kate was disliked before (how can that be??!!) and now folks are becoming fans.

Which is it?

He cleared the way to bully people by first stating that in order to stop bullying you have to bully back or be a bully. Now he gets to say anything he wants because he sees himself as some kind of super bully hero. Brilliant in his mind I guess, but in reality, egomaniacal and quite delusional. There's a chance he's going through some mid-life crisis himself.

Was there anyone at the signing who was over 21?

Bullyville is a hypocrite and only in it for the money. I thought Kate did pretty well on The Marilyn Dennis Show. Better than usual anyway.

Robert: when is that book coming out? Enough with the teasers.

_________________________________

Thanks for posting the link. Thank you to everyone who takes the time to find and post all of the links to the pics, twitter and videos. I love watching them. Mostly the happy ones.. I am not good at locating them on my own, and I try to find them every time.

The Katie video was disturbing. I don't think even KG liked the set up on that one. Something was off like she had to agree with KC using the kids, or else the interview would not take place. I don't think that was KG's idea.

Again, it brought tears to my eyes to see paige so happy and over joyed. I dunno, it all seemed genuine to me. When my daughters have been able to meet their idols in person, it has mean the world to them.

Oldest daughter and I were invited to a closed private concert with "Breakfast with David Bowie, when she was 13 years old. It was the most exciting thing ever for her, and I loved it too. It was actually breakfast with him at a closed upscale Buckhead Bar, at 7;30 am, and he talked with all of us, a crowd of maybe 50 people, ate with us, and then gave us a mini concert. I could tell being a mommy, that paige was really excited.Like we were with David Bowie.

She looked beautiful, like a young Rachel Ray. lol She is young, all kids make mistakes on social media, and she has not repeated her mistakes again, that I have heard of.

Kate was good to her, and that is all that mattered for that one moment. Kate reached for Paige TWICE to hug her, not the other way around.

I also think Kate did a good job on the show with the demo of the muffins. She did seem more relaxed.

In regards to green pants, I meant she would not be condoned for going there to stalk or cause trouble. Once you have been courted by the star, had your book signed, and pic taken, it is time to move on. Steve did the right thing by stopping her, being chatty and smiles but all business, and by still doing his job to help her to move on down the line.Thanks for the explanation layla.

for some reason, it did seem possible that it could have been her other devoted fan from down south, who might be afraid to tell her who she was, and that woman wanted to come to her house at night one time. Fans are unpredictable. I have seen them go crazy before.

Suzee said...

I wonder if TFW would have done this on her own or if the Wingman advised her to do it.

Or, if the show's producers hadn't encouraged it, too.

Suzee said...

Thank you for your reply. I still question why someone wouldn't be allowed to stand and talk to TFW especially since there wasn't a crowd of people waiting to have their books signed. It's all about image and not allowing fans to chat in that relaxed setting doesn't send the right message to me, anyway.

Ohhh, I think I may have just answered my own question. Paige was given special access to TFW, but the green pants fan couldn't stand and talk to her at an almost deserted book fair? Both are exuberant fans. The difference? There were no cameras filming when Ms Green was there.

Well, well, well. Looks like our former wife saved her venom for e-talk, airing tonight, 7 pm eastern on CTV.

Not sure if the link will work. Was channel surfing last night and stopped to watch a bit of it. TFW is starting to look like these women, especially the one on the far left.

Upstater said...

I gotta say if she continues to market herself as a "mom" and not a 4-year divorcee or a reality tv 'stah' and stops talking about Jon (and halts the lawsuit) or the personal life of her kids and continues to dress casually without the high heels, she may have a better chance at success. There's something about this new persona that's way more appealing to the masses. But I think it's too late.......

I guess the wrong words come out when you're under pressure during a live interview.
A couple weeks ago, RHONJ's Melissa Gorga was on with Hoda and Kathie Lee promoting her new book about marriage (ladies, shave you pits, don't EVER let on to your man that you poot and poop, and wear tight yoga pants, NOT baggie sweats to keep your man!!) and she said that people have the wrong "conception" about her and her husband.
Yup, conception.

capecodmama said...

jus4u...10 Your daughter was 13 when she met David Bowie. Big difference between 13 and I believe posters have said Paige is 19. Yes it was nice TFW invited her on stage but if one of my daughters at 19 was constantly waxing poetic about a D-list former reality personality, I'd be concerned. I'd wonder what was missing in my child's life that she felt the need to get so engrossed in the life of someone that she didn't even know.

Tucker's Mom said...

Lalalalala said... 160
OK, I can't stand to hear Kate say she has broken her FOOT anymore. She said it twice in the same interview. I have broken my little toe twice and three toes on the same foot at one time. Each time the pain was so excruciating it brought me to my knees. I had to wear a shoe-bootie each time and I limped for at least three weeks. I could not, at any time wear any kind of shoe for six weeks.
*******
I hear you. I fractured my radius (wrist) a dozen years ago and I was absolutely shocked at how long it took me to use my hand again. I was casted for 8 weeks and it took 6-7 weeks for me to write with that (dominant) hand again!
I've treated literally hundreds of wrist fractures in my career, and I can tell you that I have a whole new perspective and respect now!

More than the perky "girls", that photograph demonstrates just how much plastic surgery Kate's had.
She looks nothing like she did on J+K+8.
Wow.
She's got to stop with the pulling, tucking, nipping and filling.

Mel said...

What's with that gathered top? I've never seen anyone who has such a terrible sense of what looks good on them. And she does it every time. Never fails.

Why is that? After a while most people develop a sense of what flatters their body. But not TFW.

What she chooses is so mediocre....on anybody. But it looks worse on her. With her body type she needs to choose styles carefully. A lot of styles aren't going to look good on her.
And the shoes. They hardly ever look good with the outfit.

She absolutely has NO sense of how to put an outfit together, let alone have it be appropriate for the occasion.

She should ditch that security guy and hire a stylist.

She also said she's thin because she eats but uses "proportion control".

She does look much better dressed casually in jeans and flats.

Tucker's Mom said...

And, Kate has definitely had a nose job.

Tucker's Mom said...

*****
She's not thin, she's undernourished and is setting a terrible example for her girls.
She's on record saying what she typically eats in a day, and it's nowhere near enough fuel for a mother of 8, who claims to run double digit miles.
Scotty-- can you "beam" a man into Kate's kitchen, "Star Trek-style"
Kate has no elegance, charm or polish. Instead of her bellyaching answer about continual questions about Jon, she could just say "hey, I know people are curious" and every answer to the "next man" question is so negative!
I can't imagine any guy finding that alluring. It's like they're screwed from the get go.

Paige said she was up until 1;00 a.m. crying because Kate was leaving...WTF. Did I read that right??

Anonymous said...

I'm kilo, a new poster but I've been reading here for a very long time.

I haven't seen anyone mention this about TFW's muffin demonstration yet. She does not know how to make muffins. You only need to stir the batter for 10 to 20 seconds until everything is just blended and there are still some lumps. Using a mixer and over mixing for as long as she did will make the muffins tough. At least that's what I've always heard. I just stir mine since it is so much easier.
Also, the tops of the finished muffins should be gently rounded not flat.

Her so called cooking was just irritating me so much I had to post. Sorry for the interruption.

Did a little googling for muffins using the title of Kate's recipe from the Marilyn page. Found 5-6 very similar recipes. Shocking, isn't it?

And what's on the calendar next week? Oh right, your twins turn 13. No, I meant career wise. Blank page?

Cruisin Just As Fast As She Can Now said...

I also think Kate did a good job on the show with the demo of the muffins. She did seem more relaxed.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&

Did you see the last photo...the one of how she dumped the mix into the muffin pan? lol! She may have been more relaxed, but good job? She can't talk. If someone does a good job, they at least are articulate. The strings of "ums" have to go before anything she says or does in an interview is "good." It's so distracting. You just find yourself wanting to count how many she can say in a minute.

I agree with the person who said that there's a big difference between a 13-year-old with stars in her eyes over an idol, and a 19-year-old who worships the ground someone walks on, to the point of having what...5,000 photos of an almost 40 year old divorced mother of eight. As a parent, I'd be very concerned about an obsession like that. She finally met her, and it's something she will always remember. But continuing an obsession like this just isn't normal. One might end up like, good heavens, Milo!

Jumping In said...

Just took a peek at the Bethenny website, and there is a clip of TFW's appearance. Have I underestimated Bethenny? I may have just witnessed Kate's biggest 'um' moment in a very long time. Mind you, this is a 30 second clip, but it's the most direct question TFW has been asked in a very long time.

Sorry the link isn't clickable.

What career might that be? :)

Let's throw tomatoes said...

Sharon Osbourne once said that plastic surgery is very addictive. I think Kate is constantly having work done to herself. People would be shocked at how much! She doesn't spend money on clothes and shoes but she spends a lot of the children's money on plastic surgery. She's had work done from head to toe!

Talking about all the work she's had done, why does her face look really thin in the Book fair videos and fat on the Babble pictures of her in Canada? Did she have Botox over the weekend?? Does Botox work that fast?? She looks really different.

It would be interesting to start a list of all the work she has had done. I see at least ten. If she doesn't run out of money she's going to end up looking like Joan Rivers when she's old!

I agree that it's probably too late, but this latest "mom" look is much more appealing than the sex pot look she's been going for.

getofftwitter said...

I said earlier that Kate looks like she had a boob job recently. One does not get big boobs, when one gets thin. Women usually lose their boobs, unless they have fake ones. And Kates, have bloomed, in the last couple of months, very big & perky. Kate might, have had a boob job, when she was MIA, a couple of months ago. Remember, she disappeared, for a time. We all thought she took the kids somewhere and she didn't.
And as for Kate"broken foot" sorry if it were broken, she would be on crutches or that leg/foot cast that one can walk in. If she spranged the toe or jammed it, they would bandage to toes together. And she would be walking with a limp, no matter what happened. To me it sounds like she got PO'd that Jon, got on the View , and she didn't. LOLOL

I wonder what she made on Steven & Chris show? Or did she just talk?

OrangeCrusher1 said...

She used a mixer for her muffins. Nope, that is not how you mix quick breads, muffins, etc. Mix lightly until all ingredients are blended together, maybe 30 stirs of the spoon. She is so not a natural in the kitchen.

Paige was crying until 1 am because KG was leaving town? She's 19? Poor boyfriend, he needs to run away now.

This is what isn't normal...a 20-year-old (is that how old she is?) girl with a boyfriend, awake at 1 a.m. crying over an almost 40 year old woman. Girl crushes such as this may be common in pre-teens and young teens, but they are short-lived, as kids move on to the next one. As they mature, they outgrow this, as they make new friends at school, graduate, go off to college, get involved in school activities and focus on their own careers. I would have thought Paige would have left this behind by now, but it certainly doesn't appear to be the case.

NPR is doing an interesting series on digital privacy.

http://www.npr.org/blogs/alltechconsidered/2013/09/30/226835934/your-digital-trail-and-how-it-can-be-used-against-you

An excerpt: (bolding is mine)

Many people don't know their medical records are available to investigators and private attorneys:

While many Americans are under the impression that their medical records are protected by privacy laws, investigators and private attorneys enjoy special access there, too. There are three ways the government and civil attorneys can try to access personal information: a search warrant, which requires the government to convince a judge there's probable cause of a crime; a court order; and the easiest, a subpoena.

And from http://cironline.org/reports/easily-obtained-subpoenas-turn-your-personal-information-against-you-5104

Many Americans would be surprised by how easily local law enforcement, IRS investigators, the FBI and private attorneys can reach into the vast pool of personal information about their lives with little more than a subpoena, which no judge needs to review.

Hi Kilo, welcome.
Yes, overworking batter will make it tough. Not desirable.
Speaking of Kate's recipes, I took a good look at her pizza mega recipe and if anyone makes it, even scaled down, be aware that 6 teaspoons IS NOT equivalent to 2 packages of yeast.
A packet of instant yeast is 2 1/4 teaspoons and a packet of bread yeast is 1 teaspoon.
Recipe:

TAGSCOOKING KATE GOSSELIN RECIPE
Kate’s Homemade Pizza

Makes 4 (19-inch) Pizza Crusts

A note from Kate: I love cooking healthy, organic, and inexpensive meals. This recipe allows us to have a somewhat healthy pizza night, and I can even accommodate each topping request. I usually make three pizzas: one with cheese, onion, green pepper, and pepperoni; one tomato basil (feta cheese, fresh tomato, fresh basil, and a few drops of olive oil); and one with “everything” (cheese, pepperoni, onion, mushrooms, black olives, and green pepper). It’s a sure hit every time Mom plays “Pizza Parlor”!

Ingredients:

4 cups warm water (105 to 110 degrees F on a kitchen thermometer)
6 teaspoons (2 packets) bread (or pizza) yeast
11 cups white wheat (not whole wheat)
flour, plus 2 to 3 cups for
surface while rolling dough out
2½ tablespoons raw sugar
⅓ cup extra virgin olive oil
1½ teaspoons salt
9 cups pizza sauce
Desired toppings

What does a surface for rolling dough taste like? Do you grind it down before putting in the dough? 1 1/2 tbsps. of salt is not nearly enough for 3 hugs pizza. Must taste like cardboard. The sugar should be about double to feed the yeast and activate it, and raw sugar is no different health-wise than white sugar. It just costs a lot more and dupes like Kate buy it because the name connotes "healthier".
Why not say that you can use white sugar, what most people have in their cupboards?
Her sauce is a disaster. Way not enough sugar to balance the acidic tomatoes and vinegar. Who the frick uses chicken base in pizza sauce? Blech.

OK, I was going to give Paige a pass on her immature idolizing of a woman twice her age, but this is beyond the pale. This is like, Chris Crocker lunacy.

With someone with "natural" breasts this will not be the case. As you diet (for weight loss) your breasts will shrink and sag. However, Kate's breasts are not real so perhaps as she has lost weight she has had to "adjust" her good bra.

New posters, please pay attention to the dress code! Post menopausal, wear whatever you like, but crocs and muumuus are recommended. I have green crocs! And a friend last week wad wearing camouflage crocs! Of course, they also have a Duck Dynasty welcome mat, and t shirt, and mailbox cover, and garden flag, and bought all of the clans books at Costco.

WTH? She better watch she doesn't trip forward and land on those puppies. They'd probably break her fall though! Seriously, how can she continue to lie about implants? YES they look humungous. Is there not a procedure where they can re-inject saline into someone's implants? I'll have to google that

Tucker's Mom said...

Sorry, I have to add to the pizzapocalyspe recipe:
In a large pot, mix together all of the ingredients and bring to a slow boil for
2 to 3 minutes; lower the heat, and simmer on low, uncovered, for 1 to 2 hours.

1-2 HOURS?? Pizza sauce takes 5 minutes, 10 tops. There's NOTHING that gets better tasting by cooking it to death. It's not like caramelizing onions or making a demi glace.
The irony is that Kate's selling this book as quick and easy recipes for moms, when mom is going to be feeding the kids at 9pm if they make this sauce!

Oh, can we do more malaprops! Ms. Malaprop has her husband and I have my Brazilian friend. Recently she told me that she had come to this country in 2000, so immigration was easier being in the days before 7-11.

I agree whole heartedly about the pizza sauce. When I read her recipe I was like "you have to be kidding me!" I recently googled pizza sauce recipes because I had extra garden tomatoes, and all of them had the same basic formula: tomatoes, olive oil, basil, oregano, sugar, tomato paste (to thicken), garlic, salt, pepper. Pizza sauce without sugar is acidic! And adding vinegar goes against the principles of pizza sauce. Ditto chicken broth (WHY?!). Blegh.

NJGal51 said...

I wonder if its now going to be a fight to the death between Em and Paige to see who has most favored nation status. Not to be outdone by Paige, Em has tweeted that she's going home this weekend to cook TFW's recipes. When my son was in college he was only 7 hours away and told him that he was always welcome to come home on a weekend but encouraged him to stay at school and do things with his friends. After the first few weeks of homesickness he settled right in and enjoyed college life. I know all kids are different, but Em, stay at school and have fun with your friends. You're only young once, enjoy life.

Every Tuesday is pizza night at our house. Sometimes we order in and sometimes we make our own.

I agree, Tucker's Mom, her proportions are way off. I may make her pizza dough just to see how it comes out. I noticed on the Katie Couric show that it looked really tough and dense as Katie was rolling it out. I also noticed that the crust was really pale when she pulled it out. Usually, when my crust has come out that way it's because it hasn't cooked enough. She might want to prebake her crusts, then put the toppings on it and cook it just until the cheese melts.

These are a few recipes that have worked for me in the past. I like Ree Drummond's recipe as it's a thinner, crispier crust:

Sorry, I have to add to the pizzapocalyspe recipe:
In a large pot, mix together all of the ingredients and bring to a slow boil for
2 to 3 minutes; lower the heat, and simmer on low, uncovered, for 1 to 2 hours.

1-2 HOURS?? Pizza sauce takes 5 minutes, 10 tops. There's NOTHING that gets better tasting by cooking it to death. It's not like caramelizing onions or making a demi glace.
The irony is that Kate's selling this book as quick and easy recipes for moms, when mom is going to be feeding the kids at 9pm if they make this sauce!
-----------------------------------
Hmm...disagree about this. I come from an Italian family and it's ingrained; tomato based sauces are like soups, the longer they spend time in the pan getting to know each other, the more flavor you get in the end. Just my opinion. I'm not a master chef. But I've always cooked pizza/spaghetti/tomato based sauces for a long time. I just throw everything into the slow cooker for 3+ hours, and not think about it again until I get hungry for dinner. :)

Plus, again, I researched pizza sauces recently and a lot of them did say simmer from anywhere from 30 minutes to an 1hr+.

OrangeCrusher1 said...

Vinegar in pizza sauce? Tomatoes are already acidic enough. You add a pinch of sugar to cut the acidity, you do not add more acid. And yes, every working mom needs a pizza sauce recipe that simmers for 3 hours. Sorry, forgot TFW is not actually a working mom. Still.

Skin laser and chemical peels: not sure how extensive but she did have horrible skin before skin care.

Botox and fillers: Obvious

Nose job: According to Tucker's Mom

Millicent said...

Many Americans would be surprised by how easily local law enforcement, IRS investigators, the FBI and private attorneys can reach into the vast pool of personal information about their lives with little more than a subpoena, which no judge needs to review.
****
I will only address the part about "private attorneys" having access to someone's medical records. To my knowledge, that only happens when a civil lawsuit for personal injuries has been filed. The plaintiff has put at issue their injuries, which they are claiming were caused by the actions of the defendant(s). So once a suit is filed and served and everyone appears, the defendant's "private attorney" will usually issue subpoenas for the plaintiff's medical records, based on information the plaintiff provides (i.e., "I was injured in a car accident, and I got treatment at ABC Hospital, saw my own doctor, got physical therapy, chiropractic, etc.) A judge does not have to review these subpoenas, unless the plaintiff's attorney objects to any of them, and the two attorneys are unable to reach an agreement. Then the judge might have to hear a motion to quash.

Anyway, the person whose records are being sought in this instance should be aware of the situation, because their own attorney should let them know of the fact. It's not done in secret. Most attorneys will serve their client's interests by insisting the subpeona for records be limited to only those areas claimed to be injured, and often limit them as to time frame (for five years pre-accident up to the present, etc.)

Hi Kilo and welcome!!

I agree with you about the way TFW makes muffins. I've also been taught to stir the ingredients just until blended. I can't imagine how tough and chewy hers must be. LOL

Millicent said...

Kilo said:
I haven't seen anyone mention this about TFW's muffin demonstration yet. She does not know how to make muffins. You only need to stir the batter for 10 to 20 seconds until everything is just blended and there are still some lumps. Using a mixer and over mixing for as long as she did will make the muffins tough
*****
Exactly, and that's also what most recipes will tell you. But a "cooking expert" like Kate who thinks she ought to be given a cooking show, should also know that and pass that information along as she is mixing the batter. This isn't news to any of us here, but if someone from the Food Network happened upon that demonstration, I'm sure they would have been unimpressed.

Talking about all the work she's had done, why does her face look really thin in the Book fair videos and fat on the Babble pictures of her in Canada? Did she have Botox over the weekend?? Does Botox work that fast?? She looks really different.

She had her makeup done by a pro for the tv show, but for the book fair it looked like she did her own plus the studio lighting helped her look much better than the poor lighting at the fair.

Tuckers Mom,
Thanks for posting the recipe. Gosh, what a mess.

From your post above:

Makes 4 (19-inch) Pizza Crusts
...A note from Kate:
... I usually make three pizzas

Which is it TFW? Do you make 3 or 4 pizzas? And, if you make 3 but the recipe yields 4, what do you do with the extra dough? Do you freeze it? Do you throw away the extra?

... flour, plus 2 to 3 cups for surface while rolling dough out

This is a lot of extra flour if all she's doing is using it to roll out the dough on the counter. All I can think of is the photos she's posted and how white the crust still looks after it's baked and how awful it must taste. Gawd

I went out to lunch with my neighbor the other day and she brought her two youngest after she picked them up from school.

I was surprised how stretchy it was since I've never made my own.

Yet there's no new post here and this is all very old news? Admin -- is there a glitch in the system, or did you have a new post scheduled that didn't go up for some reason?

I still call it "homemade pizza". What people don't know won't kill 'em. ;)

But even still, when I roll out my "homemade" dough, I just sprinkle flour on the counter and on the top of the dough mound. I don't even measure it out. Who does that? And 2-3 cups!?!

Kate's dough has no spring because she isn't developing the glutens. More salt would be helpful too.

Jon said that Kate decides health insurance and school. He certainly does have a say in how his children are being raised. He's brought filming up to a judge previously and I assume he'd do it again.

Even Jon admits the kids miss the trips, not being on tv.
Filming= trips, freebies, more more more toys, clothes (the girls would love it more than the boys), crew members to engage with and play with them and most importantly, a much happier Kate for a mommy.

Tucker's Mom said...

The kids are old enough and they have asked, when are we going to do TV again?"
*****
Which highlights the FACT that the kids could never have consented to filming as babies/toddlers/very young children. Despite Kate's continual protestations that the kids want to film and if anyone wants to stop, the show would end.
At 9 years old, they're STILL TOO YOUNG to understand the ramifications of showing their lives on tv, where anyone can view them in all their private moments forever.

Of course the kids would say they want to do tv again if she included the word 'trips' when she asked the Q. I don't blame them; other than outings with Jon they've been pretty much confined to their own 23 acres since taping their last episode.

TV = trips, fancy restaurants, front of the line at parks, plane rides, limos, lots of new clothes, vacations, vacations, vacations. But, I'll bet you she'll have her hands full getting them to do re-takes, interviews and follow the 'script' plus it'll get worse as time goes on. No matter how many times she says they want to do another show, a series just isn't gonna happen.

First of all, no one is going to be offering Kate (alone) or Kate plus her 8 money makers a television deal.

Second, just because Jon does not currently have "legal" custody doesn't mean that Kate gets to make big decisions regarding the children without his input. And if he believes she's making a decision that is not in their best interests, he can go back into family law court and ask that the custodial determination be changed to allow him veto power over such decisions. It's not written in stone, never to be changed. I predict should Kate try to pull any such shenanigan, Jon would be down at the court filing for modification.

She feels sympathy and empathy for Jon, which you know, the root of that is love.
And she fosters a relationship between the kids and Jon cause, you know, it's important.
She makes my head spin ala Linda Blair in The Exorcist.

A possible conversation at TFW's house.

Kids: "Oh mommy can I please have_________. Oh mommy can we do _____ or go to _______"

TWF shrieking : "No!!!!!!!!!! The only way you will get that or do that is if we get a TV show!!!!!!! I can't afford those special things without a TV show!!!!!!!!!"

There's a segment of Bethenny's show with Kate at the link below:

http://www.today.com/entertainment/bethenny-grills-kate-gosselin-where-her-money-went-8C11323906

Kate says SHE socked the money away for the kids college and stressed it. Guess she heard what Jon said about putting 80% of the money made from the show into a trust.

"It's tough to get pizza parlor color and blistering at home, but using a pizza stone or pizza metal helps a lot." (117)

Well, not all pizza parlors are the same, let me tell you. I went to a PIzza Hut with my teenage son, once, and ordered a calzone. While waiting for our meal, my son went to the men's room, passing in front of the open kitchen to get there. When he came back, he sat down, a little flabbergasted: "I don't want to alarm you, Mom, or anything, but... You know that calzone you ordered? I just saw a batch coming out of the oven: they were all pale and white. And do you know how they get them all golden and appetizing?? They spray paint them." I just wouldn't believe him (That kid was always pulling my leg...), so I went to see for myself and sure enough here was this young guy armed with a can of some kind of aerosol spray making my calzone all cute and pretty, lol.

swimgirl said...

I read an article on NBC about the Bethenny interview. The article said that TFW admitted SHE put the money into their college funds. Interesting, since Jon just said on the view that HE put the money into the funds. Her stories change more than the weather. She must really think we are all stupid.

AussieGoldenLuv said...

I learned in 8th grade home ec never over mix muffins. Most muffin mix boxes say the same! Also, I've always mixed the dry ingredients first so they could be well mixed before adding liquids. The liquids would get mixed in a separate bowl then blended into the main bowl. Lastly, when adding fruit or nuts to a quick bread, toss them in flour first to keep them from shrinking. I wonder if the tops are so low because of over-mixing?

PatK said...

During the pressing questions from Bethenny, there was a quick flash of Kate's usual pursed lips and dart-shooting eyes at one point. I love it.

Since most questions for Kate have to pass pre-approval, how did she agree to this line of questioning?

I think Kate should get another show. I really do. I'm being sincere about this. I think it should be called 'Breaking Kate'. I'm going to call Vince Gilligan about this because it's right up his alley and I know he'd do a fantastic job. You have a seemingly normal person with many, many demons inside them and then as time progresses the main character (Kate) destroys everyone in their path for the love of money. With Kate it would be for the love of money and fame. Support me on this people. I'VE GOT AN EMMY AWARD WINNING SHOW. I will mention you all during my Emmy speech. I'm writing it as we speak. Damn..I'm a freakin' genius.

That, and she uses only whole wheat flour, which turns out denser baked products that do not rise as much as AP flour.
When I use WW flour, I use it in combination with AP flour. Straight WW flour yield too dense a result for me.
2 Tbsp. crushed pecans? Why bother? That's a paltry amount of nuts, which boost the protein in the muffin.
I've seen many recipes of Kate's that call for minuscule amounts of certain ingredients. lIke using 1/2 to 1 tsp. of feta in her wrap.
That's just stupid. Why bother?
It's like she's got a serious phobia of fat and salt.
The salt, I don't get. She won't add the proper amount of salt (pizza dough) as a discrete ingredient, but she'll dump a half dozen cans into one recipe and use other highly processed foods which are loaded with sodium.

Green Pants had already gotten her book signed. She just kept coming back over and over. I noticed her because of those bright green pants, plus she had the 2008 reverse mullet. After seeing her a couple times, I started paying attention.

Oh, dear-- Marilyn Denis show. TFW needs to remember that when she has an inch of dark roots showing, she really needs to keep her head up. Looking down at the mixer like she did--all you could see was that stripe of dark hair.

She's still begging for a new show? Must be a day ending in "Y". We've been hearing that since long before K+8 ended. She didn't even wait for the show to be canceled to start dropping hints about a dating show. One thing I wonder, though--if there is some non-compete clause in her TLC contract, that would only apply to similar shows, right. She and the kids couldn't take the same show concept to another network. But she has begged and pleaded for a dating show, travel show, talk show, cooking show, fitness show, etc, etc, etc for years now. Those are not similar enough to be stopped by a non-compete clause. The only thing she couldn't do was something just like K+8. So, all of those other efforts were shot down, and it was not due to any interference by TLC. All she's got left (that has not been rejected by every network) would be something in the same format as K+8. Which got crappy ratings and showcased bad behavior by TFW an, at the end, the kids. Judging by the Katie show clip, the kids' behavior has gotten worse. Her only option right now is to sell a show based on her shrieking and having meltdowns, and the kids spitting, hitting, sulking, or fighting. A format that has already failed. Good luck with that one, TFW! You'll need it.

Tucker's mom is right. You don't have to make your nose smaller, just fix the imperfection(s). Jennifer Aniston got two nose jobs after divorce with Brad and you can hardly tell.

I'm not going to mention her plastic surgeries anymore because I don't care, but Kate quit crying poor and scamming gifts out of people and companies! If you don't have money stay away from the knife!

So sick of her crap and lies!

Tweet-le De Tweet-le DUMB said...

Usually cooking programs and interviews with people who cook something on the show have a finished product on display that was cooked BEFORE just to show what it looks like when done since the cooking segment doesn't usually take as long as it does to cook the item being featured. Did Kate actually bake those muffins before the show? I figured they were something baked before and placed there.

Tweetle, I'm guessing that a production assistant prepared those muffins prior to the show, according to the recipe, for display purposes. Either way, while I think I might like the banana/cranberry flavour combination, they looked like hockey pucks!

Jon doesn't need Kate's pity. That was just a low blow.
I also think the protestations about "fostering" the relationship between the kids and Jon was a slam that implied that she's forcing the kids to go see and spend time with Jon and when they get older, some will choose to not see him.
It's as though Kate sees herself as the only parent who is parenting. Jon just has a "relationship" with them.

That happened about ten years ago and Pizza Hut is a well known pizza franchise here, up North, so I doubt it was really dangerous. StilI, since I prefer my food untampered with if possible, I filed the whole incident under "false representation" and never set foot again in there. But you got me wondering, so I just googled "food coloring spray" and, wouldn't you know: they do exist! In every color imaginable, even in a light brown that could very well be named "golden calzone shimmer". What a world, what a world...

Yep, she's done that, too. What hasn't she said at one time or another? I sometimes get really curious about what her die-hard fans really think of all her story-changing she does with each interview. They obviously watch all the interviews because they tweet about how AMAZING she looks. Maybe they keep the sound turned off so they don't have to hear the lies.

gotyournumberKate said...

I just watched the Bethany clip too. Just when you think that woman (Kate) can't piss you off any more that she already has there she goes again. She goes on about how important she feels it is to encourage the kids to have a relationship with Jon. She says she doesn't ever want the kids to feel she has hindered or stood in the way of having a relationship with him. I guess suing and constantly bashing him is ok though. THEN she has to add "when they get older if they don't want to do it anymore, that's their business....." WTF? Who says that? Why wouldn't they want to continue to have a relationship with their father when they get older?

She "has empathy and pities him"? She makes me sick. Why does she pity Jon? Because he's not living in that big mansion any longer? Because he works a mediocre job? Because he doesn't have internet or cable? Because he lives in a cabin in the woods? Because he's happier without her? Because she can no longer control his every move? I'd love for her to elaborate on that one. I get the feeling too that Bethany understood every word she said because they are 2 peas in a pod. Kate, if you read here, know this....you are the one to be pitied. Jon is a thousand times better off than you. Karma has already reared it's ugly head at you and it's only the beginning. Your looks are already showing the stress you are under. By the time you are 45 you will look like an old, haggard woman because of all the hurt and pain you have caused others. You have used and used people for your own greedy gain. It's all coming back to haunt you and it shows.

I think she worded it, "I, PERSONALLY put money away...." She wanted to make sure she is credited for that after Jon said he put 80% away. What an awful, awful life she leads constantly trying to make herself look better than her children's father. She will die doing this.

I'm putting my money on "children's books author". Remember? Not so long ago she tweeted that she had five of them, -count them, five!-, in the works. And all were being written on her pink phone. I must say I was really impressed when I read that. (Not.)

Anonymous said...

When she was (tape) interviewed on E-Talk (CTV) earlier this evening, she said she will be glad when the time comes that she is no longer asked about Jon.

This doesn't jibe with the comments she taped for the Bethenny show to be aired tomorrow where she doesn't appear to be reluctant.

Then again the evidence doesn't appear to match a "broken foot" either.

I agree with "Smoochie" (#158) 50 people, many of whom are impressionable teenagers, out of 35 million does not equate to national popularity in Canada despite what Milo imagines.

On the other hand, things that should just be a pinch she piles it on. I can't remember which recipe on Amazon but I noticed it called for a Tablespoon of tarragon. Well that would over power the entire dish and ruin it, I don't care what it is.

Does she taste her food? Does she even make half those recipes? Some of them are just plumb ridiculous.

Layla said...

Sleepless In Seattle (156),
Green Pants did not seem fashion-forward enough to be able to successfully pull off the crocs-knee socks-muumuu look. She still had a lot to learn. She was mid-to-late 40s, heavy-set, green pants and an oversized gray sweatshirt, salt-and-pepper hair (brown and gray) in the oh-so-flattering reverse-mullet cut. When she'd come back, it looked like she was trying to engage TFW in conversation. After a little bit she'd wander away, and then come back over and over again. She looked giddy just to be near TFW. After about 3 stops, Steve would see her coming, and walk out to intercept her before she got to TFW. He'd chat her up for awhile, and eventually she'd leave...but then she'd come back again after a few minutes. I thought--that is what the Sheeple must really be like. They see what they want to see when it comes to TFW. My impression of TFW was that in person, she looked just so ordinary. I thought that she could spend the whole day at the festival without anyone recognizing her or even really paying attention to her if she wasn't hyped up as a guest. Very, very, very ordinary and mediocre. And the flat arse looks even flatter and saggier in person. Seriously, with all the plastic surgery she's had, you'd think she'd do something about that. It was really noticeable. But back to green pants--when she looked at TFW, she saw something that wasn't there. She was enamored of TFW. She just couldn't drag herself away. Those sheeple have this image of TFW in their minds, and reality has nothing to do with it.

..........................

Personally, I think right now would be the perfect time for the Twist of Kate show. Maybe it's already been pitched again and it was passed on. I tend to think Kate would never consider it. When is she going to grasp the concept that America doesn't want to watch her go on vacation, date, cook or talk? But watch her wash dogs at a groomer? Ride along on a fire truck? Waitress? (haha) Pure ratings gold. People would love it and if she played her cards right, the public perception of her could change greatly.

It's been said many times here not to give her any ideas. I hope I do. If she could get the show, earn a TV income, change her image and leave her kids off TV it would be win, win, win,win. For the kids sake, I wish she would pour her energy into a project like this, rather than suing everyone who looks at her sideways and spending a fortune to do it.

Susie Cincinnati said...

Thanks, Layla. I wonder if Green Pants is anyone on Twitter or the Kate fan blogs and just won't admit that she was there playing the sheeple-gawking game.

It would have been interesting to hear what she and bodyguard were chatting about. I guess Kate really does need someone to keep the obsessed fans away. She wouldn't know what to do with such a person.

Paper Plates Forever! Yay! said...

Kate is definitely trying to win back the public with her new and improved persona on all these TV appearances. Her softer tone when speaking, saying she now has pity and empathy for Jon (she makes me sick), doing her part in fostering a relationship with Jon and the kids, losing the super-slut heels and wearing more practical footwear, dowdy tops that hide her gaunt frame, the list goes on and on. She knows she has to play this last card to get that TV show. Wonder how it will turn out. I would love to see someone make a tape of her lies. Saying one thing one day and changing her mind the next. Like the college funds. And what really makes me sick is her pathological lying claiming that most of the money they made went to college funds so therefore she resorts to using coupons to survive and doesn't buy brand name stuff. Oh. I forgot to say I think she was wearing her UGG flip flops one of her minions gave her in one of the photos taken when she had her toes bandaged. Sweetbren or whatever the hell her twitter name is would be so proud.

Millicent said...

Layla - thank you again for sharing what you saw and heard at the recent book fair/cooking demo. The lady with the green pants, while she seems harmless, would still creep me out. If anyone (male or female) were to stare at me like that, continually try to make conversation with me (when clearly Kate is in the middle of signing other people's books), and otherwise completely disregard societal boundaries - then something is off. That's what is scary - because you don't know to what extent the person is off.

My son and I are baseball fans, and our team is the SF Giants. We go to spring training, we go to regular games and sometimes I'll take him to signings. You pay your money and stand in line for about 5 seconds of time with the player as he signs your baseball or other memorabilia. And then you are whisked out of the way so the next person can have their brief turn. There is no returning to try to strike up a conversation - if you did that, you would be politely escorted off the premises.

When a grown woman doesn't get it - doesn't accept that she had her moment with Kate and now she needs to move on and let others have their brief moment as well, the mental wiring is faulty. For a person like her, clearly Kate does need someone present at signings or other public appearances, just to be a needed barrier. Doesn't mean it has to be Steve at $1600 plus expenses per day.

LifeinOH said...

I thought Kate looked pissed when Betheny asked her about the money. And notice she didn't really answer but just moved on to Jon and the divorce? She made a real point of HER "personally" putting college money away right after Jon said HE did on The View. Which is it Kate? You need college money or the kids are set?

I just watched the video of TFW on the Marilyn Denis Show. Those are not the fingertips of a woman who constantly cooks, cleans, hauls heavy sacks of chicken feed and dog food and pulls furniture out from the wall to clean some more. She has long nails. How does she keep from breaking even one? Does she have her manicurist on 911 speed dial in case she breaks a nail while installing window screens? It doesn't seem like reality to me.

Tucker's Mom said...

********
No name brands, except YEARS of freebies from Anne Taylor, Gymboree and Peace Love World, and that's just what I can say for certain.
To paraphrase "can you send more gift cards, Loft, because I 'spend' $500 a week on your clothing! I love wearing something new to my tv appearances!"
What's really stupid is that you don't have to be rich to wear designer brands, when you have TJ Maxx and Ross etc. I've got lots of designer brands in my closet, just at Maxxinista prices!
But then, Kate would have to pick through the racks of overstocks and last year's fashions.
Or hey, get in your car and drive to Franklin Mills or any other nearby outlet mall.
Duh.
Coupons aren't what they used to be. I think the days of these super-couponing hoarders are all but gone. When I skim through the coupons in the Sunday paper, I pass over 80% of the food because it's mostly highly processed.
Moreover, store brands are many times the biggest money saver, even when I have a coupon for a name brand, even if that name brand is on sale.
Does Kate not like the unwashed masses at big box stores? She only went once, and that was paid for by TLC for an episode. Right there, she could save.
That said, I don't believe she's anywhere near scraping by.
