Ashley 'AJ' Jewell Rest In Perfect Peace
NeNe plans a race "Heeling the Sole" for her domestic violence charity. The handful of partipants all sprinted in high heels. Including NeNe's husband Greg and Honorary Hotmess Dwight, who wore 6 inch stillettos and a black poom poom shorts jumpsuit. Uhm, yea.
Moving on, Lisa visits Kandi and they have a talk about how Lisa doesn't want Ed to return to the NFL due to his serious injury.
Sheree shoots a promotional video for SHE by Sheree. She wants to show the video during the show. Dwight, whom Sheree enlisted to "help" her, disagrees saying the video has no place in the show. Dwight is obliged to assist with the show and claims to be " a gift from God sent to Sheree".
Sheree reminds viewers that the collection is SHE by Sheree not "He by Dwight". Just imagine if it was...

The Real Hot Messes of ATL Recap
In this week's episode of the Real Hot Messes of Atlanta, Kim takes Big Poppa back admitting that she "doesn't want her girls' lifestyle to change". The good intentioned mother asserts that she is "not ashamed of dating a married man, its just a piece of paper." In the next clip, she purchases a $19,000 ring courtesy of the paper bound Big Poppa.
Sheree plans her independence party and intends for the focus to be "all about her". The final production is a far cry from the helicopter entry she had originally envisioned, before she nearly came to blows with the event planner. At the party, she unveils a rather beautiful, larger than life portrait of herself. How Sheree!
On a sad side note--Lawrence, Sheree's hairstylist, showed up to the female only independence party dressed in hot pink, stretch skinny jeans and red heels.
Kandi's performance was brilliant in the Pocketbook Monologues. After the show, Dwight offered his acting skills if ever there were to be a Tool Box Monologue. I have faith in Our Father that no such tragedy will ever be written!
Lisa advised Kandi to stay out of the Kim and NeNe "Tardy for the Party" song drama. But the whole situation boiled over at Sheree's party when NeNe "got all crunk" with Kandi in the typical neck-rolling, lip smacking NeNe fashion; after NeNe told Kim that the song wouldn't sell without her.
In this episode, it was revealed that NeNe, is writing a memoir that will be, according to her co-author, a whole plate of neck bones. I'll leave that right there.
Final synopsis- A Hot Mess... as usual.

When It Rains...It Pours!
If you have friends or relations in West Georgia, take a moment to check on them. Streets I travel, and stores that I visit on a daily basis are completely under water! Nine people have lost their lives in this flood and thousands of others are without homes. I complain about being inconvenienced, but I am truly humbled by God's power and grace.
I will be recapping The Hot Messes of Atlanta tonight. Keep checking. Stay Fab.

Is SHE serious? SHE by Sheree.
Sheree has barely reworked the most simple of contemporary shapes. She and SHE by Sheree would have been better off if the Real Housewife had opted to just fund or invest in an existing project of a real fashion designer. In the last episode, Sheree mocked fellow houswife Lisa Wu Hartwell for doing precisely that. I know... right?
On a positive note, it is good to see Sheree taking the initiative to create her own source of income, since her $1.1 million divorce settlement, from ex-hubby NFL player Bob Whitfield, fell short of her initial demands.

Lobster for Lunch
The Real Hot Messes of Atlanta
Sheree said "I have the body of a hot 25 year old". Well, thats amazing since, I'm sure we all agree, if Sheree isn't 46 then she's 50! What was up with her hair at the alter ego party anyway?
Is NeNe's real name Nelson? The fact that she initiated the idea of the cast participating in an alter ego photo shoot is quite ironic since she is about the most two-faced person on TV these days.
Who sniffed raw sugar and told Dwight that he is the Queen of fashion and/or style? He mocked Lisa's Closet Freak fashion show, and offered his expertise to Sheree for her upcoming SHE by Sheree premier. He needs to get somewhere and sit down!
At the alter ego unveiling, on her way to smoke a cigarette, Kim missed a step in her Dolce and Gabbana's and fell face-first down the stairs. Yet, she remained at the party, bloody and bruised, with a swolen ankle. Kim should have been "Tardy For the Party" and gone to the ER.
Kandi helped Kim record her debut single "Don't Be Tardy For The Party". Is it just me, or is Kandi just too talented and descent to be in such poor company?
Lisa and NeNe are BFF's for now.
Well that about sums it up! A Hot Mess as usual.

Booties on a Budget
Bye Bye Big Blue Bus!
I am happy to share that today Hubby did something good for the environment, neighborhood property values, and our pocketbook. After months, no--at least a year, of nagging, whining, hint-dropping and flat out hell raising, the Big Blue Bus is finally gone.
We purchased the monstrosity about three years ago, to facilitate a business venture. The 1999 Twilight Blue Chevy Astro Van was nicknamed the "Serial Killer Van" by my 13 year old daughter and her neighborhood friends. The van cost $1000 and was driven for 2 years and +/- 200,000 miles. That being said the Big Blue Bus served it's purpose like a champ. And, now it is out of my driveway and off to the junkyard to be chopped up, melted down, and otherwise recycled! At present, I'm lobbying for the funds to be applied to my Fall wardrobe spruce up. Stay tuned...

Dinner for 6 for $12. I'm a bad MamaJama!
Tonight's dinner menu includes: Citrus & Herb Marinaded chicken, smashed red potatoes and wilted baby bok choy. Yes, it sounds delicious. But the whole meal only costs about $12, and that's Divine.
3 tablespoons fresh ginger, peeled and finely chopped
1/2 bunch fresh parsley
2 tablespoons fresh Cilantro, finely chopped
2 sprigs fresh Rosemary, leaves only, finely chopped
4 large green onions, chopped
Baby Bok Choy is a kind of cabbage, rather common in Asian cooking. The taste is that of a mild spinach with the crunch of ordinary cabbage. It is delicious and inexpensive; and could not be more simple to prepare.
