Well tonight’s RHOSLC sounds like a doozy. I am planning to stay completely Team Meredith on this. If anyone were to question me about how I grieved my FATHER or questioned me about the services I would never speak to them again. I don’t understand why this is such an issue. Even if there was no formal memorial, which I imagine there was, there is no excuse for all the gossiping and innuendo. Everyone knows her dad DIED. Whatever she did to grieve that is not something they should spend anytime with on TV. Was nothing happening in their lives? Are they just trying to deflect from that? Stop it!
We Are Sprinter Vanning Away From Beautiful, Beautiful Zion
We begin at breakfast on the last day in Zion and everyone is still ganging up on my girl Meredith. So many people wearing sunglasses. Why? That is confusing to me as why people buy peanut butter that you have to stir. I accidently bought that kind on my panicky trip to Whole Foods and it’s stupid. I’ve spent two days trying to make it in to real peanut butter. It’s crucial for Banjo’s meds. I’m annoyed. I’m going back to Skippy if I ever get to a grocery store again. I need so many things but I just can’t get out the door. Update, I’ve been through some things before this recap so I may make it short.

Why is everyone so horrible to someone whose father died? I don’t care if someone treated me like shit for years. HER FATHER DIED. That is all you need to know. Stop this! Why am I the only one on this page? Maybe I am on the wrong side because even Mary is on her side. Meredith is screaming at everyone.
Okay I am sorry but there is a lot going on here right now and I cannot finish. I’m so sorry, sometimes real life happens.
Sending you Strength to handle whatever is coming your way this evening.
Same Tamara! Hug to you and ear scratches for Banjo. Hang in there, my furry boy is on up there too. I am feeling you. You are a good doggie mom. After reading here all of this time I’d say that Banjo has MANY “aunties” & “uncles” that send love his way. ❤🐶❤🐶
Hope all is well – stay safe
A. hang in there, Tamara. We’re all sending hugs
B. Did anyone else notice at the beginning of the episode / when Lisa is ranting as Jen is sitting on the bed… there is, at first, a pair of Silver (Betsy Johnson) Sandels on the table next to Jen. Shot switches to Lisa, who hasn’t stopped screaming, to the other ladies trudging inside, back to Jen, etc. Suddenly Camera pans back to Jen as she yells LISA! I HAD YOUR BACK. and shoes are nowhere to be seen.
I wonder how many takes were needed to get that perfect ‘HERES YOUR MIC BACK’ moment.
Yup and there was a boom in the room. Lisa is so overproduced. I also thought her saying she has more money than anyone there was super distasteful.
Everyone was running to comfort Lisa and be understanding but nobody was understanding that Meredith took two days to grieve her father before returning to bat shit crazy accusations.
I’m with you 100% on the Meredith issue. I’m especially irritated with Whitney hammering at Meredith bout the memorial service. I don’t know what you’re going through, but I hope things get better soon.
This has to be production driven. If Meredith was really upset as she says she is, then she would not have signed up for season 3. Why would she sign up for season 3 when she hates everyone now? The Meredith we all know would have disengaged and never spoke to anyone every again, yet she is filming and friends with all of them.
How crazy was it when Mary was talking to the window and said Heather looks inbred? Mary’s comments were very offensive. Plus, everyone in her church was worshiping her and not the Lord. This was so disgusting.
Whitney is getting on my last nerve. Her voice and behavior is bad. There is no excuse for it. I don’t want to see her and Justin getting it on next week. I loved this show, but feel it has too many episodes.
Worrying about you, Tamara.
Hoping you have the strength to get through your troubles.
Take care of yourself and banjo. Sorry to hear you are going through a difficult time. I hope today is better.
I think this whole conversation about the date of the memorial date is production driven. Very insensitive story line.
20 episodes of RHSLC is a lot. I thought it would be the reunion episode by now.
I totally get you about the peanut butter. My dirty boyfriend bout a jar of that when he stayed here over the holidays and now he’s home and I’m stuck with it.
TT, I wish I could go to Publix and shop for you and drop it by. I live in Nashville. I actually could do that one weekend!
Take care, and thanks for all your great posts.
*Okay what’s up with my typing?? My SOMETIMES boyfriend BOUGHT the peanut butter. He’s not dirty, LOL
I’m not sure if I’m happy to hear that, or not! 😂
Exactly. I was thinking of all the ways he could be dirty
Me too—-good dirty 😉
LOL Y’ALL! Y’all made me laugh out loud and snort my coffee! Thank you. I needed to laugh SO much. It just hit my funny bone and gave me the giggles! 😂
Ha ha ha! Glad we could bring a chuckle! 😂🤣
That gave me my laugh for the day, Barb!
Glad I was able to bring a giggle today! 🤣
I believe the sunglasses might compensate for not having their eye makeup and eyelashes on first thing in the morning while having to film. Especially after a rough night. And when the lights go on in their bedrooms super early (per Kyle on Real Housewives Girls Trip)
– Nothing can change a face more than those lashes and covering up the circles.
Stirring peanut butter is stupid and I made that same mistake, Anyone questioning someone’s memorial service for their father is just mean.
Sending wishes for peace o you.
I bought that oily organic peanut butter by mistake and it keep leaking out of the top of the jar no matter how tightly I screwed it on had to keep a towel underneath the jar in the pantry because it made a huge oily mess. I didnt really want to throw this $6 jar of peanut butter away but I eventually did. What a pain in the neck.
Whitney really lost me on this one. I don’t understand why she is missing the point that questioning Meredith on this (in the name of allowing her to “clear the air”) is as problematic (if not more so) than someone pulling in her father’s illness. Arguably, because both she and her father made the choice to film about his struggle with addiction, that would be more “eligible” for conversation amongst the group. I don’t recall Meredith’s father ever filming, and outside of it being the reason she wasn’t on the sprinter van, she really didn’t bring his death onto the show.
Moreover, whyyyyyyyyyy are they acting like the ONLY WAY the feds would have known where Jen was is via Meredith?? This is Jen “I am on a reality tv show” Shah, not El Chapo. If they hadn’t picked her up that day, I think they would have figured out where to find her the next… or the next… or the day after that… or the following week.
The “Meredith tipped off the feds” storyline is so tired and making some of my favorites look bad.
I agree…who cares who contacted the Feds?! Trying to figure out who did it takes away from the actual charges. Let’s focus on the charges and not who may or may not have tipped off the feds.
I promise NO ONE tipped off the Feds. This order came down likely that morning, and set into motion for all these agencies to GO GET HER. If they were to rely on a private party, it could put that person at enormous risk. Which would make them liable to be sued. It just isn’t done that way. (Pulling my hair out at the inane shite they’re concocting against Meredith.)
I stan M. Marks.
I thought Meredith had a good point when she said, if she had tipped off the FEDS to her location, she would have wanted to be there to see it all go down.
How is it that we have an alleged felon facing decades at Camp Cupcake, and a cult leader, and yet week after week we get women harassing the woman whose father just died?
Agree ~ the hammering of Meredith regarding her father’s memorial was stupid. It probably was production driven as it stinks of “puppy gate” and all the other contrived story lines in housewives history. Having said that, I’m not sure why Meredith didn’t just answer the damn question and put the whole thing to rest. My dad has passed. If people on a reality tv show were asking me about when his memorial service was, I would tell them. Honestly, what’s the big deal? They aren’t questioning the circumstance of his death, just when the memorial was. With all the other things going on in this franchise (cults, homeland security, etc.) not sure why this deserved so much time and angst.
Still my favorite franchise right now! Too bad Jen is in so much trouble ~ she cracks me up.
TT you are so right about the oily peanut butter problem. Hope all is well with you today!
Dear TT, sending you and banjo best wishes
As RHOBH relentlessly dragged grieving LVP,whose brother committed suicide. So this castmate conduct is repeated..smh.
You and Banjo are in my prayers TT… They need to stop with the Meredith tipping feds off junk… they’ve been looking at Jen for 9 YEARS or so… I believe they know where she is! The feds are pretty accurate when it comes to that. Its going to be interesting to see what/if Mary faces any future legal issues regarding her situation. Additionally, why would Mary be commenting on social media about next season and stating she’s still part of the cast? Will they just use her for a few episodes and then rid of her if it’s true? Or is she just trying to maintain relevancy until after the reunion… same with Jennie even though we know Bravo has dismissed her from the franchise… will she be confronted then edited out?
Who cares who tipped them off? If they are trying to play detective, they SUCK. And the line that stuck with me was “Your urine smells, you need to drink more water!” Huh? Who smells someone’s urine and then comments on it? I believe it was Meredith, I cannot keep these women straight. I am looking forward to watching Teresa & Jennifer to lose their shit. They got it coming, with all of their opinions about everyone else’s marriages. I miss the old days of RH.
Have you tried grocery pickup? I am going to try it tomorrow and see how it goes. I HATE going to the grocery store, and my daughter uses it all the time. She has 3 little ones, and she pulls up, texts them, and out they come with her order and put it in her van, while she waits with the kids still in their carseats. I wish they had had this when I was raising 3 kids.
I am sorry you are having a bad time, we are all here for you and Banjo-
Nancy, I have fibromyalgia and osteoarthritis in my knees. It is so painful to walk on concrete floors the stores have. During COIVD, I broke down and tried online grocery delivery and grocery pickup. The are good in a pinch when my pain is just too much.
TT, hope you and Banjo are hanging in there. We’re here for you!
Tamara, we do worry about you. If it is depression, please ask for help. My mom has disability issues and has just let her depression take over. It’s even worse right now because my amazing, godly grandmother passed this weekend.
Some people think that I am crazy, but I am here teaching today. I am working tomorrow morning because I have an observation scheduled, and I have been getting ready for it for weeks. I just wanted to get it done. I am literally leaving from school to go to my church for the visitation and then funeral.
I hope you and Banjo are going to be fine.
I am sorry about your grandmother. I hope your work responsibilities get caught up the way you need them to be and that you are soon in the comfort of those you hold dear.
Condolences on your loss. I hope you’re observation goes ok. 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Regarding peanut butter, I’m the on the opposition here I see of preferences.
Natural peanut butter is just peanuts and sometimes salt. That’s it. Skippy’s second ingredient is sugar then four different additional oils – hydrogenated vegetable oil, cottonseed, soybean and rapeseed. Common in other brands are gmos, mono-diglycerides, and some even add dairy which I am allergic.
Advice regarding natural peanut butter – do the initial stirring together, then keep it in the frig upside down to keep it mixed.
I totally agree! I grew up With Skippy and love this brand. But now I buy Smuckers Crunchy and stir it up!
It is trouble, but if you keep it in the refrigerator, it is fine. The ingredients are peanuts and salt.
It is so good!
So who was watching WWHL and felt like Whitney was channeling Debbie Gibson? Debbie Gibson now, not 1980’s Debbie
I read this somewhere and YES!!!! – It’s interesting how Whitney can make up an entire conspiracy theory about why Mary & Meredith weren’t on the van, but seems to just accept Jen’s innocence at face value
There were A LOT of show ponies on display. All vying for the MOST.
Now that the cult talk is out in the open, and her trying to buy their silence failed…. Mary purposely tried to keep a low profile and desperately hold on to the only fool left in her deck of cards – Meredith.
The scene in Mary’s church was very disturbing. It unequivocally shows the hold Mary has on those poor manipulated souls!
Does it matter who called the Feds if there is credible evidence of wrongdoing?
I can overlook some of the reactions being overblown because of the amount of liquor involved but why do Meredith and Lisa act the way they do? I was team Meredith, then Lisa wasn’t as horrible and now I have no idea. We know Mary is a cult leader and Jen may be a criminal. Heather and Whitney are more like the average housewives doing their thing but Meredith and Lisa keep me guessing. Which is why the show is so good.
Tamara, I appreciate your recaps on all housewives. I find myself unable to watch anymore. All HWs used to be fun. But am I the only that feels all these shows have become mean girls on steroids? It’s one thing to gossip and get in small fights but these “little girls” are so mean and hurtful. Outing cheating husbands when young children are involved? Questioning a parents death? If you talk to so in so you’re not my friend etc. If these women are so smart how is it that don’t realize and FBI investigation takes years? And then they are all so proud of themselves for outing someone? Getting physical fights, It’s disgusting and cringeworthy. Would anyone reading this actually be friends with people like this? There r women in my neighborhood that are positively awful and I stay as far away from them as possible! Someone please enlighten me. Thank you
I wish I could enlighten you, Arya, but there’s just no explaining their behavior. If anyone I know acted like that, I wouldn’t be friends with them. My youngest sister is almost that obnoxious so I cut her out of my life.
They have truly become someone jumps on a random comment made, and they make a season of it.
I was actually thinking that it has become a whole bunch of nothing. Episode after episode is “mutual talking” on my cc, and no substance or entertainment.
I don’t want to hear fighting over and over again. Stressful!
I am going to read the recaps for RHOC only, rather than watch, because it has become that annoying. RHSLC is going that way as well.
Thank goodness for recaps.😊
Wow, just now watching the show. Lisa really lost her fucking mind. What the fuck? Did Lisa just say she is fucking richer than all of them and doesn’t need to be here.??? I forgot how crazy this whole scene was. Mary muttering alone about Whitney looking “inbred”? She is so jealous of Heather and Whitney she can’t see straight. I feel horrible that I could not recap this epic shitstorm last night. There is too much going on over here right now. Nothing serious, just of lot of different things at once and it’s more than my Covid mind can process. How is it that Meredith and Mary is a thing? Why does Jen have dirt on Meredith? I am so confused.
Unpopular opinion alert, I am still team Meredith.
Also, Mary is downright creepy.
If Lisa is so rich, why is she wearing the ugliest jeans I have ever seen? Also, she is lying about speculating about Meredith’s memorial. Meredith is starting to look like she is hiding something about the memorial. But who cares? Her father died. That is really all they need to know. If they buried him in the backyard, or had a huge memorial really isn’t this important.
How does Mary get to ride in her own SUV?
Seth is weird.
Why do all the people in SLC have such ugly jeans?
At this point Jen doesn’t know that Stuart has rolled over on her. LOL. She’s an idiot for going to court. Everyone else has taken a plea deal.
Oh Lord. I stopped watching this before the Mary in the Church scene. She hasn’t had a service in a year? Her uncle or cousin or some relative said she’s only ever been in church a handful of times. This is so creepy. Apparently, the cult members all wear white. This is totally insane.
Utah is really beautiful. Whitney and Heather are going to Meredith’s house for some sort of spiritual cleansing. Or passive workout. Or something. What is this? Why isn’t Meredith doing it?
Oh it ends next week. The we get to the world’s ugliest reunion looks in history.
Again, so sorry for the aborted recap. I’m going through some things But, I am fine.
Great comments, Tamara. As far as the memorial service is concerned I think the confusion was caused more by Lisa & Heather not really listening to Meredith when she told them about the memorial. When Heather & Whitney finally did get to discuss it with her she said the memorial was on Monday and she flew Vail on Tuesday. She was there (in the bathtub) when the others got there.
This episode was off the rails batshit crazy. I don’t hate Meredith but I’m not here for her supporting Mary. The whole memorial storyline is has been pushed sooo far. Regardless of the day Meredith was probably with her family. Unless she was fucking half of New York lol. I cannot wait for the reunion- this may be the one for the record books.

Thank you for updating and I’m sorry you’re having a rough time.
I hate what everyone is doing to Meredith. Ditto on Mary and the rest. I don’t get it. They have so much fun and then the drama. Ugh.
You have me email and I will prime deliver you Skippy. I also use Instacart. I have a son with autism and crying babies are his trigger and I have lupus. It’s more expensive but worth the anxiety. Even during rough financial times.
I’m serious about the skippy. ♥️
(I used paragraphs for you!)
Ha! the peanut butter is the least of my problems at the moment. But thanks,
Hoping by now all is ok!
I am with you on this disgusting questioning of Meredith. I normally like Whitney but this was too much. I wouldn’t want to be on a bus full of non supportive ladies after a memorial service.
Jen needs to fire her lawyer. What terrible advice take the plea the feds will throw the book at her.
