Her cooking shows on public tv are actually quite good.

Satire. Mary Katherine Ham is a very talented and funny writer.
Is this the female version of man-spreading?
Also, this is the first time I ever read an article that centered around a pie plate. I never knew that pie plates held such cachet with the womanfolk. I now know what I’m getting my wife for Christmas. I hope I get a plate worthy of a homemade blackberry pie. I do like my blackberry pies!
It is definitely an upper crust pie dish.
Then why does she fall into usage of trendy cliche terms like “throw shade” multiple times?
I swear, that is one of the more annoying turns of phrase to come into vogue.
The expression ‘throw shade’ has been around for a while, but it exploded in popularity after recaps of a 2010 episode of RuPaul’s Drag Race used the phrase to describe a competition of epic takedowns.
“People who are drawn to pose as a New England WASP are the worst of the worst. Hillary Clinton “herself” is one of them.”......
They actually think their poop doesn’t stink.
Actually, this article is a wonderful diversionary news article. I am so sick of reading about Hillary! and all of her evil actions and all of Trumps problems.
Satire. She is using upper end slang to mock both Stewart and her fans. Teasing with cultural appropriation. MKH is always a good read.
For a brief time Martha made housework interesting and make the mundane appealing. In the beginning, she was all about doing everyday tasks - making the bed, organizing a closet, hand washing clothing, baking a pie - with a "purpose" and "mindfulness".
Then she started making the big bucks...
I always thought it was gross to gesture using the fork with which you’re eating.
You don't show up late, unannounced, uninvited.
You don't insult the host.
You don't leave early, abandoning the dish. You stay, help clean up, and take it with you CLEAN when you leave.
... and that's a good thing!
Resplendant???? Har!
I figure it would be old and dry anyway.....
The magazine hasn’t been interesting to me in years. It originally contained a lot of more homely, rustic DIY stuff; and her decor was more informed by Colonial/Early American sensibility. Then she got very rich, the ‘climber’ in her came out, and she seemed compelled to make it all more elite and sophisticated.
It’s not fun anymore.
Very witty writing!
“It is a grave mistake to care about any of these people.... or anything about these people.... heh heh”
So true. So true.
Check Snope Dog.
if you want to read a fun book on Martha, check out “Just Desserts.” :)
“Also, this is where I stopped reading.”
Then you missed this...
“D’Agostino’s people responded by telling Page Six it was a “cheap Pyrex number”...”
Pyrex? I’m not a Martha Stewart fan, but I know enough to realize she’ll probably return to prison after she’s cut this guy’s genitals off with a Wusthof 6” Utility Chopper.
Sounds like a win-win to me.
