Just sayin'. First ladies usually plan menus with WH catering staff. Is that so offensive?

Not sure what's offensive.  Just making a silly comment. I thought the headline was funny, but clearly I am easily amused.

I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.

Melania Trump Is Using Ingredients From Michelle Obama's White House Garden at Her First State Dinner

First Lady Melania Trump is embracing the spirit of bipartisanship for Tuesday’s State Dinner with French President Emmanuel Macron and French First Lady Brigette Macron — at least, when it comes to the menu and decor.

The Office of the First Lady released details about the Trump administration’s first state dinner on Monday, revealing a menu that features greens from the White House kitchen garden, which was planted by Michelle Obama in 2009, and a china service that will include pieces from Bush 43 and Clinton’s services.  ...

I would say I was drunk last night but I wasn't drinking...just too many tabs open I guess

Oh man. You'd better be careful. The Mods might think you are hijacking a thread and unleash all sorts of grief on you.

I'd hate to see a noobie get into hot water.

Some of those dudes have ugly wives.

BTW I don't understand why Tim Cook doesn't have a date? You would think he could get any woman he wanted.

Just visited a news site where the big story was about Mrs. Trump's white hat.  I thought it looked good on her. 

But then again, she could wear a burlap sack and still look good.

The absence and the importance of Hope Hicks is sorely felt this evening.


President Donald Trump reportedly made Hope Hicks, now his communications director, steam his pants while he was still wearing them and scolded her when she forgot the wrinkle-erasing device.

I disagree.  Circle gets the square.

Yes, there's snark ... but pretty good considering it's CNN.

First lady Melania Trump goes full-on French in Chanel for first Trump state dinner for France
USA Today, Apr 24, 2018

First lady Melania Trump's choice of gown for her crucial first state dinner — for France — was a glittering silver-and-black sheath with spaghetti straps, cutouts and sparkles everywhere from that most French of all fashion houses: Chanel.

Mrs. Trump's gown was described as a black Chantilly lace haute-couture gown, hand painted with silver and embroidered with crystal and sequins.

The Trumps welcomed French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife, Brigitte Macron, at the North Portico of the White House for the second day of their three-day state visit shortly after 7:30 p.m. ET.

Mrs. Macron was wearing a creamy white gown by Louis Vuitton with gold beading details including a cinched waist and a lattice design across the bodice, arms and shoulders.

“Gunmetal stilettos...!!”

I hate Ivanka’s dress with all those stupid ruffles.  She always has to go over the top in a way that falls flat.  Too bad she can’t learn from Melania.
