Beverly Hills Housewives fund dueling birthday parties

This week Kyle and Taylor both held events for their daughters' birthdays.  Kyle kept it kid friendly with animals, a train ride, and a bouncer for her two year old Portia.  Meanwhile, on the same day, Taylor held her daughter's 4th birthday event, none of which daughter Kennedy seemed to be interested in, though it cost in excess of $60,000 for the tea party production and live band that sang Kennedy her own song that the band had written specifically for her.

Who are these parties really for? Kyle's party seemed more kid friendly while Taylor's extravagance showed her style and personality while her daughter looked completely overwhelmed and quite frightened by the production. I do have to say, Taylor's dress was amazing, and I'd wear it any day!

I have to be honest, I wouldn't mind attending one of their expensive parties.

And, is it just me, or does Taylor's face (especially that top lip area) look wayyy too over operated on? I think it looks horrible. If she'd done nothing I'd bet $10,000 she'd look better right now. Definitely more human, if nothing else.

Beef curtains for breakfast! - Atlanta episode recap

So the newsest episode of The Real Housewives of Atlanta started off on a nice beefy note. Kim Zolciak appeared as the special guest on Kandi's Internet show called -----. They discussed so called "beef curtains." I seriously wonder if the two of them were not on the show together, would Kim really have been a guest, though I suppose talking about cheating (the topic of the show) is probably not so foreign to her. I truely don't know how anyone can seriously be her friend however. I find her beyond annoying, though entertaining enough to watch on television, which often go hand in hand.

Phaedra + a pickle + a camera? did you guess pregnant photo shoot? Probably not. I really enjoy the idea of a pregnancy photo shoot and Phaedra looked cute but, c'mon, seduction with a pickle is just too Snooki style. And Snooki certainly doesn't live in million dollar mansions. I think I agree with the whole "Boughetto" comment made by Kandi in the previous episode and this action only confirms it!

At the end of the episode the wives - or erm, women who once married rich, gather at Cynthia's house for a party. Kim, surprise surprise, doesn't show using the same excuse she used when not showing up to Kandi's performance last season, "my kid is sick." It's a good excuse most don't question however i doubt this is true. She just didn't want to go for whatever reason.

This last issue really annoyed me - Phaedra spoke of how she was being induced at 34 weeks because she doesn't want to be pregnant. Seriously? It's sickening. She didn't seem worried about the development of her child. It seems to be more of a novelty to her than the life of a living person. I have to agree with NeNe on this one - "keep him in there until he's ready to come out!"

O yes - that sugar in the "va-jay-jay" bit - does that work? I've never considered putting a food item up there and don't think I ever will - but it's mildly interesting. Watch out for a yeast infection!
