She did say it with love.

I was not offended at all because of the tone. It was a great episode.

I did notice the upholstery fabric on the rolls. So funny, but since it was set up by the others, that's what people think. Good episode.

LOL! And what quilting method was that?

I definitely thought they were doing quilt as you go... she had the blocks with at least the batting in squares. I'd have loved a quilting bee for me! Especially if I ended up with a quilt to keep!!! LOL, I do love this show!

I have to agree with this statement. When did watching TV shows become so full of political stuff? It takes all of the fun out of watching the show.

In any case, I am going to watch that episode tonight. Can't wait after hearing all of the comments about it.

We have it on the DVR. The scripts always depend on the writers and if they decide to be apolitical. I read a book the title of which I can't remember and it said that sometimes the writers are very young and don't have any life experiences so sometimes the scripts reflect that. Mainly I just like to be entertained, not to learn something on sit coms.

It was a good episode. The thread they had placed on a table looked like machine embroidery thread. I noticed the upholstery fabric on rolls. I hope we see the finished quilt in future episodes.

I love BBT! I'll have to watch that episode today when I'm working on my bag.

I loved that Amy's friends really tried to throw a party that Amy would love. She was a little insulted that Penny and Berni thought she was really that boring, and secretly wanted the Penny/Berni party of bars and wild men. The episode showed how friends go out of their comfort zones to relate to and please each other. I thought it was a great episode.

I loved the show, as usual. Its so good to be able to have great shows on that don't include violence. I like the cops shows but once in a while it just gets to be so much. I like Little Shelton as well.
