Special to the Shame Squad: The SAG Awards

Meryl Streep goes for "Sexy Librarian" with the glasses and shoes, and "Chico's Model" for the dress.

Amy Adams, honey, they forgot to finish your gown.

Luciana Damon gets points for making her dress out of a tablecloth from my mom's dining room, but loses points for forgetting to iron it.

Emma Thompson lost a bet and had to wear this.  "No really, I love jeweled parrots on my dresses!"

Remember these rattan chairs from the 80's?  

Natalie Dormer painted them black and upcycled them in to sleeves.

Rita Moreno is All Harley on the top, All Chinese Restaurant Curtains on the bottom.

Kerry Washington couldn't decide which 80's Mother-of-the-Bride Dress she liked better, so she wore one half of each!

Ariel Winter's dress is fine, but apparently she thought she might get hungry during the awards and made her own snack tray.  I kind of feel like there's a plastic baggie of Cheerios hiding in her cleavage.

We GET IT, Mayim Bialik, you're weird.  But you'll never be as weird as Helena Bonham Carter, so just take off this lace and satin disaster right now.

Is Alfre Woodard dating Alfred Angelo?  She looks gorgeous...for a mid-90's prom model.

Cat Blanchett just came from a very fancy lobster dinner.

I need some Advil just to look at Malin Akerman.

Lena Heady goes for that "Prison Chic" look.

I bet Zoe Kazan thought, "you know what would make this aqua and black disaster better?  A bow."

Jane Krakowski has decided to cover one shoulder and one eye.

Patricia Arquette recycles her old dress from her high school madrigal singing days.

Julie Bowen is ready for Halloween!  A weird, very geometric Halloween.

Q: What's Sarah Paulson hiding under her skirt?
A: All of her Botox needles.

Is Mindy Kaling wearing a rope around her waist?  She's pretty much phoning this one in.

Amanda Peet, it's like you're trying to end up on this blog.

Why minimize your waist and hide your cankles when you can do the exact opposite, Edie Falco?

And finally, they both look lovely, but are Sibel Kekilli and John Bradley an item?!  
If so, good for you, John Bradley.

Freezer Meal #2 - Maple Pork Tenderloin with Apples

This is the second part of my foray in to freezer meals - the first part can be found here  for Cheesy Shells and Italian Sausage. Today we're making a pork and apples recipe adapted from The Pampered Chef.  I love this one--it's so easy to assemble in advance, most of the ingredients you likely already have, and it couldn't be easier to fix the day you want to eat it (dump stuff in pan, bake). So yummy.  And pretty. Maple Pork Tenderloin with Apples For this you'll need the ingredients below.  You probably have the oil, vinegar, garlic, brown sugar, mustard, and bags in your pantry!  You can also easily divide this recipe if you usually only cook for 2-3 people at a time (that's what I do when I make it). 2 pork tenderloins , about 2 pounds total - they can be expensive, so pick these up on sale 3 apples - I prefer honeycrisp but use what you like, or take one of these suggestions 1 small red onion 1/4 cup canola oil 1 clove garlic , press...

The Olympic Outfits of Johnny Weir, rated

The Verner girls are back, 4 years later, to discuss the outfits of Johnny Weir. (And the crowd goes wild!) Since writing about his Sochi wardrobe , it has been one of my top posts of all time. Other highly rated posts include a post about the palaces of Hawaii , how to pack for vacation , a Pampered Chef cheesy pasta recipe , and Meghan Markle tiara predictions . You guys are an eclectic group. Speaking of eclectic, let's talk about Johnny's overall look. First, let me start off by saying that yes, I know that Johnny looks like a cross between the Hunger Games, Pee Wee Herman, and Colonel Sanders. So obviously, I've seen that one post on Twitter about it. And that meme on Facebook. And that thread on Reddit. Johnny is not one for subtlety. One year he said he was going to go with a "not-so-literal" interpretation for his Kentucky Derby hat, and he then literally wore a crown of roses and a mint julep on his head. Basically, Johnny would not know subtl...

Baseline

Oooh look, I came back!  It's time for our first update on how "New Year, Old Me" is going. This week was pretty much documenting a baseline where I logged what I ate (for science!  Okay, not really--for pattern identification!), did a lot of stretching because my piriformis, psoas, and QL muscles are jacked, and tried to identify some changes I could make. Let's get right to... What I'm eating 'Tis the season for leftovers!  We try ( try  being the intent here) to minimize our food waste by keeping a running list of things we need to use up on the fridge.  And this week we actually made it through everything except the coleslaw and the applesauce (the coleslaw went to a landfill, while the applesauce lives to fight another day). My, my.  What pretty handwriting. Leftovers never sounded so lovely. I had some leftover ham from Christmas, Observed  on the 30th with my parents, and then some leftover fresh broccoli from a veggie tray my SIL made for ...
