Original Article

Posted By: Harlowe, 3/14/2024 4:20:03 PM

Meghan Markle has launched a luxury lifestyle brand American Riviera Orchard with a glitzy Instagram video. [Snip] Her new project is said to have been in the works for more than a year--and feature 'all the things that are close to her heart'. [Snip] The announcement comes on the same night as Prince Harry and Prince William are set to make a rare joint appearance at the Diana Legacy Award event at the Science Museum in London--but neither will be in the room at the same time, even virtually.

Comments:

Although harboring a personal aversion to things “Meghan,” this article is being posted to exhibit another “coincidence” in the melodramatic life of Meghan and Harry—“coincidence” being the numerous times their escapades have tended to eclipse scheduled, meaningful Royal Family events while demurely or vigorously denying any personal influence in having purposefully intended to distract or usurp Royal Family events. Launching an alleged year-long project on an evening paying tribute to Princess Diana with a scheduled live appearance of Prince William seems a bit beyond “coincidental. / Might Yogi Berra’s perspective be a consideration? “That’s too coincidental to be a coincidence.”

A lifestyle and cooking brand that will feature 'all the things that are close to her heart'. Sort of like a cross between Martha Stewart and the Oprah. The horror.

AS we tune in today, ( someone cue up the cheesy organ music ) we find that Sparkle Markel Farkle believes that she is the new queen of kitchen/ living arts. Martha Stewart need not be afraid. The Dukette, filled with envy and no sense of reality will be trying convince her 10 followers that California has the same cache as The South of France. Good luck with that. Poor Prince Harkle , he had so much and now winds up with cut rate scullery help. Will the Duke ever wake up and get back to his real life? Will the Dukette ever get over herself? And what about the leverage kids Arkle and Larkle, will they ever know that they're game pieces? For that answers to these and other worthless questions tune on tomorrow, next week of next year for another chapter of " The Unmerry Wife of Windsor ", seeking privacy but appearing everything for cold hard cash.

Yawn...Meghan's too lazy to make anything; she'll probably have someone else create these products and pass them off as her own. It's her modus operandi. Besides, we already have QVC and HSN not to mention numerous other shopping sites from which to choose. Her name and title isn't that much of a selling point, either; it's just another venture pitched by this narcissistic grifter which will go nowhere soon enough.

Thank you #3. You are a creative wordsmith. I anticipate a recipe for 'Traffic Jam for people waiting to meet ME.' Can I compete? Microwave Jam (no sugar) Ingredients • 1 cup berries raspberries, blueberries, blackberries, or a mix rinsed • 1/4 tsp corn starch Instructions 1. Put the berries in a large glass bowl. If you are using blackberries and they are large, cut them in half. Toss the berries with the cornstarch. 2. Cover the bowl with a dinner plate, and microwave for 3 minutes. Give it a stir. If your jam is still very runny, pop it back into the microwave for 30 second intervals. Be careful, it will get quite hot. 3. Spoon the jam into a clean jar and let cool Store in the refrigerator, the jam will firm up as it cools

Wondering when she will be Today"s Special Value on QVC. Maybe one of their 24 hour cooking days where she can be featured over and over again. Jam? Really? LOL OMG what a joke these two are. Not reading her book or blog, listening to her on Netflix or eating her jam. My goodness but she looks silly doing these things. But go ahead she has the right to do what she wants as long as she wants.

Hey, I kind of like Martha Stewart, liberal that she is. At least her recipes are good. Meghan will hire out someone to come up with content. There will be nothing creative or original. I look for her recipes to be some disappointing stuff re-hashed from the women's mags. Those two are Eddie and Wallis all over again.

GA judge just gave Trump a legal “wink

President Trump just notched a legal win that may shed some light on the bizarre decision made by the judge in the Big Fani dismissal case. In a moment that felt suggestive in a “wink and a nod” kind of way, Judge McAfee not only granted Trump a substantial triumph but also opened the door for rectifying his own unjust ruling by approving Trump’s appeal request in Georgia. It appears as if McAfee wanted to wash his hands clean and defer to a higher court, almost as if he was encouraging Trump’s team to seek an appeal and give Big Fani the bum rush right out the door.

The main source for the data has been the Hamas-controlled Gaza Health Ministry, [Snip] If Hamas’ numbers are faked or fraudulent in some way, there may be evidence in the numbers themselves that can demonstrate it. While there is not much data available, there is a little, and it is enough: [Snip] While the evidence is not dispositive, it is highly suggestive that a process unconnected or loosely connected to reality was used to report the numbers.

Former President Donald Trump posted a $91.6 million bond Friday after losing writer E.

[Snip] Trump faced a Monday deadline to put up the money he owes in the case, as he had 30 days after the judgment on Feb. 8 to either pay cash or post an appeals bond before Carroll could ask the court to enforce the judgment and seize Trump’s assets.

That’s up from a collective 16 percent of sales being electric and hybrid cars last year. The rule is a cornerstone of the Biden administration’s climate agenda, as the cars and other light-duty vehicles it regulates currently make up about 17 percent of U.S. planet-warming emissions.

Ties were important because they gave a sense of authority but ties also showed that a man wants to belong in society. As Benjamin Franklin said, “Eat to please thyself, but dress to please others.”

Hours after the Supreme Court gave Texas officials permission to jail and prosecute migrants suspected of crossing the U.S. southern border without authorization, an appeals court late Tuesday blocked the state from enforcing its controversial immigration law known as SB4. In a late-night order, a 5th Circuit Court of Appeals panel dissolved a pause that it issued in early March to suspend a lower court ruling that found SB4 to be unconstitutional. The order reinstated a ruling from U.S. District Court Judge David Ezra, who concluded in late February that SB4 conflicted with federal immigration laws and the Constitution.
