Is anyone else as obsessed with tracking Martha Stewart’s comeback as I am? Her morning show, “Martha” and “Martha Stewart: Apprentice” are both programmed on the DVR. I am sure that Oak does not appreciate this, but I had to compete with the excess Stargate episodes somehow!
Anyhow, today’s Martha was a great episode. She had the guy that played Charlotte’s wedding planner on Sex and the city AND my TV boyfriend, Jamie Oliver, as guests. !Ding! The highlight of the show had to be when Martha and Jamie were concocting an italian pasta dish and Jamie asked her to “Pass over my sausage.” They had a great shot of everyone in the audience snickering. Martha caught onto the joke and asked “which one?” to which he replied, “The smaller one.” Oh yes. Daytime TV has gotten downright raunchy.
I am not as impressed with the Apprentice show yet, because the main reason I watch Martha Stewart is to learn some “good things.” She could have least dismissed the first contestant with a stern, “You are NOT a good thing” instead of the mild handwritten criticism. Pump up the drama, Martha!
I have been seeing an abnormally large number of scrunchies lately. For the guys or the fashionally uniformed — I am referring those hair elastics that are covered in fabric that were fasionable in the early to mid 1990s.
So, yes. I thought that scrunchies have been socially (or fashionably) unacceptable for at least the past 5 years. Am I off on this? My personal scrunchy collection hangs in my closet but hasn’t been touched for quite some time… and I wore them past their prime as well.
There was even a Sex and the City episode in which they explained that you could tell if the person was from New York by the presence or absence of a scrunchy. Perhaps this news has not travelled this far south yet… I am getting tempted to write to Samantha Thompson Smith (the fashion editor of the local paper, the News and Observer) to tell her to broadcast that all scrunchies should be discarded or put in the back of the closet immediately.
