Real Housewives of New York: Let’s play catch up!

I love Carole! I am glad she is beginning to see how LuAnn is. She called LuAnn the “one-upper”. She said LuAnn, will, “one up you and raise you some crazy thing”. Which is definitely true! While the ladies are out playing croquet, the “royal wars” are on! Carole helps LuAnn to shut her face by quickly picking up croquet. And then winning the entire game. Heather starts to notice the tension between the two ladies. LuAnn is just being true to herself, annoying everyone around her.

Once Carol was speaking about her book, LuAnn cannot help to speak about her book. Then Heather talks about being a gymnast, and LuAnn chimes in and tells of her gymanstics. Carole starts to one up LuAnn and stating that she was on the football team. She is so hilarious! Finally, when Carole and Sonja leave the table and Heather decides to tell LuAnn about her annoying personality traits. It goes completely over LuAnn’s head and for once, she is not the topic of her own conversation, she blames everyone but herself about how the mood is around her. Go figure!

When Sonja gets back from London, she immedately goes to learn what she missed as far as throwing Aviva and Reid an anniversary party. Since her departure to London, Ramona has been helping out with the anniversary plans. The party was in what seemed to be a hotel lobby, which was fine for the other ladies, but weird for Heather.

Although Aviva tripped down the stairs at her own anniversary party, the real entertainment came from a singer, Cara Quici. Now I am not sure what party she should have been performing at, but this was not one of them. Heather took the words right out of my mouth, “is this for real”! It was so weird! I could not stop laughing! Still, the speeches made up for the entire evening. On the way out, Ramona and Heather cannot leave without a fight. It did rub me the wrong way how Heather said Ramona started it; however, Heather was the one who egged the situation on. She continuously followed Ramona around the room taunting her until Ramona ran into the arms of Luann. Ironic! 🙂

Later, Luann has a wine party and tries to set Ramona up for laughs. She has the ladies sit blind folded and tatse an unknown wine to decide whether they liked it or not. Then she had them differentiate the flavors that were in each bottle by smelling them. Ramona pasts the test with flting colors as she was able to name each flavor and each smell accurately. Much to no one’s surprise, the wine turned out to be Ramona Singer’s Pinot Grigio. Is that class Luann? She tried to set her up to look foolish but the tables turned all too soon.

Aviva plans a trip with Ramona to Miami. Since Carole will be there, they will get together while the ladies are there. She also invites Sonja since she wants to introduce her to a sex addict, Aviva’s father! Right! This should be interesting. Once in Miami, Aviva’s father is introduced. He is both handsome and suave. I cannot wait to see how Sonja receives him…
