Mom to Bee

In case you didn’t already realize, I’m kind of a fan of The Bachelor. Well, I just finished watching this week’s Women Tell All episode and spent all yesterday wrapped up in some online conspiracy theories.

One theory is that Jason Mesnick (sigh…he’s so dreamy) chooses fan favorite Melissa. At the very beginning of the season, ABC gave us a little “this season on The Bachelor” preview including shots from the proposal at the end of the season. These few shots showed the audience (1) the dress color of the woman Jason chooses and her (2) skin tone, (3) hair color, (4) height, and (5) a pinky ring on the woman’s right hand. All signs lead to Melissa.

But wait. There’s more.

I just noticed something that throws a little wrench in that Bachelor theory. These videos and screen shots are from the end of The Bachelor: The Women Tell All episode when it previews next week’s finale:

Video preview of Melissa

Did you catch it? Here are the screenshots of importance:

Melissa's Ring - as seen in a mirror reflection

So it looks like the Ring Conspiracy doesn’t hold as much water as initially thought. But Jason will still choose Melissa, propose, and live happily ever after. Or so I hope.

Found a great tasting (and simple) recipe for building a balsamic glaze.

Ingredients
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup water
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon brown sugar, packed plus
1 teaspoon brown sugar, packed

Combine all the ingredients and reduce. Easy peesy.

Bon appetit and whatnot.

My Tivo and/or cable has gone out mid-Law & Order: SVU. That is a dangerous time to be fucking around with my television viewing cabilities, my friend.
