Is that a baby bump? Or just a loose, sacky dress? OR BOTH? George Clooney and his wife Amal have been in Kentucky for most of this week. I’ve been seeing social media updates and reported sightings of them for days. George’s parents live in Augusta, KY and that’s where Amal and George were for the most part. Apparently, Clooney’s folks were hosting a big family reunion, which I guess gave the extended Clooney family a chance to spend some time with The Most Important, Brilliant and Fashionable Woman in the World, The Amal Unicorn.
It’s a Hollywood homecoming! George Clooney took his wife Amal back to his hometown of Augusta, Ky., for an annual family reunion earlier this week, E! News has learned. The newlyweds stopped by several of the actor’s favorite spots, including Magee’s Bakery, where he showed his leading lady the ins and outs of the town’s finest foods.
“George grew up around here,” Russell Dickson, the co-owner of the baker told us. “They both ordered transparents. It’s also called clear pie or cellophane pie. It’s made of eggs, butter, sugar and milk. It was her first time having one and she absolutely loved it.”
Dickson also chatted with the Brit beauty about how she’s finding Southern food thus far, and it turns out, she likes it!
“She mentioned she’s just become a fan of country breakfasts, biscuits and gravy,” he shared.
And Dickson admits that despite being one of the most famous stars around the globe, Clooney is still “the same guy, still a practical joker….We caught up on what’s new with everyone. They said they were having a good time in town.”
Meanwhile, word spread quickly around town that the Tomorrowland actor was in Augusta for his yearly family visit. According to a source, the 54-year-old was even spotted playing basketball in the Augusta High School gym with a bunch of students. And on Tuesday night, we’re told the family got together for a private party where Amal was introduced to several people who weren’t able to attend the wedding.
“He was really excited to introduce her to those who didn’t go to the wedding or didn’t know much about her. He’s proud. They are a loving couple and he seemed very proud,” our insider gushed.
You Yankees and foreigners might balk at Southern breakfasts, but trust me, I’ve seen “the full English breakfast” and the “New York breakfast,” and I’d take a Southern breakfast over those any day. If I was much of a breakfast eater, which I’m not (I eat yogurt and a banana for breakfast). I wonder if Amal has tried grits? I wonder if she’s tried scrapple?
Meanwhile, OK! Magazine (rolls eyes) claims Amal is taking acting classes because George asked if she’d like to do a cameo in one of his films. The theory is that Amal might make an appearance in Hack Attack, the film George is making about the Rupert Murdoch-owned press hacks. Since Amal is a “perfectionist,” she’s taking acting classes to make sure that she’s the best actress ever, in the world, throughout history.
George Clooney was in his (& my parents') hometown today 😍😍 I run down this street every time I visit my grandpa! pic.twitter.com/wCboO0pPGs

FRINGE.
Do they own a deli?
I liked Michael at Dlisted’s: “I guess she figured a trip to his homeland called for a Pocahontas costume from Walgreens”
Perfect as usual. Her choice in clothes is so childish. What kind of lawyer can she be?
Hilarious–Michael always nails it!
I love Michael K too, but that Walgreen’s comment was from Jezebel. He just quoted it.
He quotes a lot from other people. I use to find MK funny. But saying the same thing for years and years.. boring. I don’t read his site much anymore.
Exactly, the first thing I thought of when I saw the photo. Maybe she looked up “Kentucky” and saw pictures of Daniel Boone and Indians and etc. The Walgreens reference from Jezebel is priceless.
love the dress
I like the dress too but I was hoping for a pic of that cellophane pie as well.
Hey girl, I’m not going to get into a posting battle, I’m just going to post once. I came to to defend Michael k. He is one of the best comedy writers to come out of the mess that is the internet. Yes he repeats Sh*t, but that’s what makes him identifiable and defines his style. He also creates new Shit all the time. There is little in the world that I love, because I’m a bitter used up wad of a human, but mk is amongst those few things. Ok he’s not on the top of his game every single day, but when you’ve been blogging for 10 years, you will have some off days. He’s still funnier on his worst day than most other bloggers on their best. He’s scathing, insightful, creative,but also incredibly compassionate and hard-working. He has created a haven of humor, acceptance, and joy for thousands of people, and he deserves major respect. Peace out.
Oh my lawd. Born and raised in Georgia, and now all I can think about how much I want sausage, biscuits and gravy. Mmm mmm.
(Thanks for distracting me with food. Between Sarah, Jim Bob and Kylie, I needed that.)
Kentucky-raised myself and now I, too, am dreaming about biscuits and sausage gravy. ::::drool::::
I’m Canadian and I loooove biscuits and gravy. Also cornbread, and chicken and waffles…mmmm. Although I have to say that I’ve never tried a transparent.
Also, ITA about this being a nice change of pace from all of the ick being posted today. Food-talk forever!
@MsGoblin, there’s a rumbly in my tumbly, and I’m seriously considering a quick trip to a place called Martin’s for their sausage and gravy biscuit. However, no one makes it as well as my beautiful, 91-year-old grandmother up in Missouri, who’s probably scrambling some eggs in bacon grease as we speak.
@LadyMTL, it sounds like you need to come visit us down here in the south! You have good taste. And the aforementioned grandmother is a The Pie Queen, but I hadn’t even heard of a transparent until just now. I guess we’ll have to try one when you come visit. Food talk fo eva!
I’ve been to New Orleans and I ate myself stupid (mmm, beignets) but I’ve never really visited the USA a lot. One day I want to do a food tour of the American South, I’m sure I’ll gain 50 pounds but it will be so worth it! 😀
Mmm, when you do that food tour of yours, make sure you do more than beignet in Louisiana, Cajun food is something else and I can’t find decent Cajun anywhere outside of Louisiana, not even in neighboring TX.
Same for TexMex…
@Timbuktu Oh, I had lots more than just beignets, but those stuck in my mind because I’ve never found anything similar here. The food in New Orleans really was amazing…my trip was close to 10 years ago and I still dream about it, hahaha.
My mom’s side of the family is right out of the bayou, so even though we’re way up north (Minneesooooda), I still get the benefit of having a grandmother who goes down-home Southern in the kitchen. These poor Yankees I’m surrounded by who don’t know real gumbo, jambalaya, crawfish, etc. Ay yi yi, I tells ya.
I’m still aiming to actually get down to Louisiana myself and have some right on the scene, though.
OMG! Eggs in bacon grease. Old crisco can next to the stove. When I was growing up we used to cook eggs in bacon grease. I am a New Yorker whose family moved to Michigan when I was child. We had to go to a specialty store to find Hellmans Mayo and Guldens Mustard. Only the smallest bottles were available. The only thing available in the grocery store was yellow bland mustard and sickly sweet mayo. UGH! I’m not certain if my mother has yet recovered from ordering ginger ale and being served Vernors which is NOT ginger ale. This was 1971. Thankfully times changed. Lol.
@cran. Buffalo Rock ginger ale. It’ll clear your sinuses out, it’s so strong. And Duke’s mayo – the best!
Yes, yes, yes……or biscuits with pear jelly/syrup. Last year when I visited my grandma in Jackson, TN, we picked her some pears, and she made them into preserves….I ate biscuits and pears for a week straight. I didn’t want to stop eating. That’s how I get every time I visit.
VC, as Boston-bred veggie girl living in California, I’ve been into Southern food for some reason (love me some black eyed peas, collard greens and okra, fried green tomatoes, maybe grits or cornbread, too).
But I have to say, your grandma’s biscuits and preserves sound sublime! Mmm, I’m hungry…
laura in LA, you should’ve seen her have a heart attack when my mom fried some catfish in FLOUR instead of CORNMEAL….I thought she was going to die. She gave my mom a long lecture about how you NEVER fry catfish in anything but cornmeal. Lol.
I’m okay with black eyed peas (I need cornbread, LOTS of cornbread with it)….but collard greens! With ham…divine. Fried chicken. Potato salad. Buttermilk pie. Barbecued ribs. Pecan Pie Bars (seriously, I could probably eat a whole pan in a day)….it just goes on and on.
Love this story! Now I want pears and biscuits.
I agree on the cornmeal, learned that from my uncle’s southern-born wife. I also learned to make fried green tomatoes with cornmeal (be still my heart, I could live on them) and then showed my German village women how to make it when they were all depressed when bad weather left them w masses of green tomatoes. We had a giant cooking party in my house, lots of wine and peach iced tea I found in Munich, and plates of American homemade chocolate chip cookies. There were 30+ women and girls from my village. It was so much fun!! best day. I love knowing they still eat them there and are looking forward to it this year again — a little bit of southern America cuisine that made it over! And yes, I made a honey glazed ham and grits too (not from the South but love it from my N and S Carolina trips).
Another Kentucky born and raised here – just 45 minutes from Augusta (a really beautiful, charming little town right on the Ohio River). And yes, biscuits and gravy are to die for. No scrapple please – not really a staple in this area of Kentucky . It has to be homemade biscuits with sausage gravy, eggs, grits and a side of ham or bacon. You will actually feel your arteries closing as you eat this but damn! it is sooo good.
And red eye sop poured over the gravy (the pork chop or ham drippings). My gosh, I miss my Nanny and Papa.
As a veggie girl, I can’t do the meat dishes, but I’ll take your Kentucky bourbon (Knob Creek, please!) any day of the week…
Sounds good right about now, too bad it’s not even noontime here in LA.
I always forget he is from the South! I bet they had biscuits and gravy, chicken and waffles and a serving of CASAMIGOS Tequila lol
Lmao. Sounds like an infomercial. “No southern breakfast is complete without biscuits and gravy, waffles, and a healthy serving of CASAMIGOS TEQUILA! Get yours today! No seriously, buy some.”
Augusta, Kentucky is a beautiful little town on the Ohio River, but hardly the deep South!
Francesca, sounds like you’re famliar with Augusta. It is lovely, isn’t it? But it’s close enough to Ohio that I wouldn’t consider it the deep south either.
I agree…it was not a member of the Confederacy and most Kentuckians I’ve met do not consider themselves to be southern. Biscuits and gravy is served all over the midwest, it’s not a solely southern dish.
Also, I thought scrapple was a Pennsylvania Dutch thing.
Wasn’t George’s dad a newsman on a station in Cincinnatti? State of Ohio is across the Ohio River from Augusta and it isn’t far from Cincinnatti. This is not the deep south at all, its horse country and coal country.
She looks pretty miserable in the first picture…
Yes, I thought that too. That’s not one of her usual “I’m so wonderful” pap smiles. It seems like a “Get me out of here” forced smile.
She looks like WTF did I get myself into to. I seriously doubt a biscuit covered in gravy has ever entered her mouth.
I agree kcarp. No way she ate any biscuits and gravy or if they did pass her lips she made a dash to the nearest bathroom and it all came back up. Not sure what she eats or if she eats but it ain’t biscuits and gravy.
kcarp and tigerlily, the same thoughts crossed my mind. Hmmm…
I’m a Yankee, but I love me some biscuits and gravy. There’s nothing like a big southern breakfast and good coffee. Yummy! !
Tell me, is chicken and waffles good? I’m curious about it but I kind of find it a weird combination.
Amal looks like she is just barely tolerating being there.
YES.
When made correctly, chicken and waffles is SPECTACULAR. it sounds weird, but trust me – try it.
If you get to Atlanta, Gladys Knight has a pretty famous chicken and waffles restaurant. I’ve never been there personally, but I hear it’s amazing.
Chicken and waffles is big here in LA, Roscoe’s being the one that comes to mind first, no idea if any of it’s as good as what you get in the South.
As a northerner who lived in the south for a long time, I wonder if she’s struggling with the heat and humidity. It’s been in the mid 80s (Farenheit) in Augusta KY this week which I know is not nearly as hot and humid as later in the summer, but the difference between London/NYC/So CA climates where she divides her time these days and southeastern USA is pretty radical.
MinFinn, I am going to guess that she didn’t consider the temperature or humidity when she opted to pack (and wear) the suede Pocahontes dress. I wonder if she has her hairstylist along or if she has to deal with the frizz herself.
Finally, a post on sausage gravy! 🙂
* Honks for Sausage Gravy*
SG is my favorite celeb. 😉
I was raised by a southern mama from Georgia. I love a great southern breakfast.
Dear mummy–this is a ghastly nightmare! I was forced to actually eat a carb in a small room they refer to as a ‘kitchen’. No one has drivers, maids or cooks and the clothing is something called ‘off the rack’! They didn’t even know I was the most famous barrister in the world and actually thought a human rights lawyer helped oppressed poor women and children-can you imagine? I’m going to renegotiate my contract, as I think I deserve a raise in my allowance or another mansion for enduring this. I’ll need a week’s shopping and salon visits to recover–please fax my schedule to the paps.
LOL!
*Snort*
very funny
This is so spot on as Amal’s inner (in)authentic voice, bb. I’m looking forward to another installment following the next Klooney photo op say…tomorrow-land-ish at tequila sunset? Oh, and don’t forget to BYO $10k+ outfit and ‘he better not try to barely touch me or fake kiss my hand today’ smug face. 😉
She looks great in all these photos, but I have difficulty believing that she’s ever eaten biscuits and gravy.
Which is a sad, sad notion. One has not truly expericed the pure beauty of life until they’ve eaten biscuits and gravy.
I am from Ireland and we only eat biscuits with a cup of tea. I have often heard of biscuits and gravy wathching american film, tv shows, they always sound really yummy southern food which I have never tried.
Meh, she might be a sampler rather than a gobbler.
A nibbler perhaps?
Me, I’m most definitely a gobbler.
Depends on what it is, for me. I reserve the gobble for things I love.
“I reserve the gobble for things I love” now THERE is a t-shirt!! LOL~
Band name: The Gobblers
Book Title: Gobbled
Somebody, please, stop me!! 😉
We dont have biscuits and gravy in Australia. What is it?
Biscuits and gravy, the end.
Sometimes there’s even sausage. Heaven on a plate, basically.
Biscuits are similar to scones. I’m sure you know what gravy is but the style of gravy that accompanies a biscuit in the South is different than the gravy that would go alongside turkey or beef at Christmas. It is made in the grease (or drippings) leftover in the pan after cooking sausage. You mix in flour and milk, grind in some pepper and voilá! Delicious!
Yeah, it’s not biscuits like cookies. Biscuits aren’t sweet. They’re good made with buttermilk. And the gravy is usually white and peppery. Dang it. I think I might have to abandon my salad in the office fridge and go to Cracker Barrel for lunch.
Southern style biscuits are round pieces of bread. As a child, I loved to get up very early on weekend mornings at my grandparents and make the biscuits. Well, technically I was the cutter. My aunt would make the dough and roll it out.
Since the biscuits were cut round, you have extra dough that I would form into a ball and watch it grow into a huge biscuit as it baked.
As someone else mentioned, biscuits are not sweet (most use buttermilk as the liquid to make the dough). So, they go well with most anything.
Thanks for the explanations. Biscuits over here are what Americans describe as cookies.
@Caz: It’s the same in Europe, biscuits are a sort of cookie, and you would have them with tea, or sometimes coffee. Funny thing is, in the UK it’s a different sort of cookie than, for example, in Germany. But it’s always sweet, and rather light.
looks great? her legs are so painfully thin it appears as though they could snap.
@nicole I am from Scotland, now living in TX, but I swear I dreaded my first taste of biscuits and gravy because I thought they’d be what WE call biscuits (cookies) with a dollop of thick brown meat gravy on top, LOL! I was pleasantly surprised. The biscuits over here are like our scones, and the “gravy” is crumbled sausage browned up in a frying pan and smothered in a thick peppery white (bechamel) sauce. Delish.
I’ll trade you for a good Irish/Scottish breakfast, though any day! Bacon, eggs, square Lorne sausage AND links, black pudding, white pudding, tattie scones, mushrooms, fried tomatoes, with soda bread toast and marmalade on the side, but you can skip the beans. Slainte! Nice to meet a fellow Celt.
The vulva vest, again?!
right?! perferct name!! thats what i came here to say, vag vest aint a good look
What is scrapple? Biscuits and gravy sounds great!
Scrapple is a disgusting combination of all of the throw away pieces of meat, congealed together.
Scrapple is all the leavings of pork, mixed with cornmeal and spices and formed into a loaf. It is sliced and fried until it is is crisp on the outside. It is utterly delicious! It is not southern however. It originated with the Pennsylvania Dutch and is especially loved in Philadelphia.
I grew up in the south with scrapple, but that is only because my mom is from Philadelphia and cheered when the grocery store started carrying it. Scrapple is wonderful, a crispy texture filled with spices, but it will never take the place grits has in my heart!
I learned about scrapple in a hilariously funny novella by Florence King, When Sisterhood was in Flower. I have never been brave enough to try it.
My brother’s girlfriend’s family makes homemade scrapple. My bro said it’s delicious. I think it could depend on where the meat comes from and how it’s made. This stuff is straight from an organic farm.
A related anectdote: when a friend and I drove up to PA to get my cat Z we ended up in scrapple country, which we though was hilarious for some reason. So much so that I almost named her Scrapple 🙂
Hm, always thought scrapple was purely a PA thing. In North Carolina, we eat livermush, not scrapple
I always think of scrapple as the brother of spam.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=anwy2MPT5RE
And —– Scrapple is fried crisp and served with maple syrup where I came from.
The LV(?) fringe dress is a ridiculous choice for a down-home KY trip, but she looks adorbs and happy in the second snap.
If Amal ate biscuits and gravy and a real Southern breakfast, then I REALLY am Mrs. Charlie Hunnam.
I just want her to get him out of the baggy “Dad Jeans”…
PLEASE do not make him a skinny jean enthusiast.
The jeans, tshirt and navy jacket combo is awful, that is the worst outfit I have ever seen him wear. He needs to update his casual wear so badly.
He looks really happy in these pics
I agree. Happiest I have seen him look!
Came here to say the same. It’s the most relaxed and happy he’s looked (at least in photographs I’ve seen) in a long time.
He does look happy. Amal needs some assistance to help her look comfortable in places that are not 6-star luxury.
I moved to the Tennessee in my 20’s and I agree with Kaiser that after having the full New York, English and Southern breakfasts, the South RULES. Down south, they love you with food and the women seem to be raised knowing how to cook delicious meals. I never met a bad cook among them. This is quite a change from being raised by a mom known as “The Master of the 5 Minute Meal”. It’s like I discovered my taste buds for the first time.
My west coast friend quipped that Have y’all eatin? is the Southern Baptist way of saying hello. No proper Southerner will let you sit in their parlor hungry or thirsty; you’ll have a drink (Sweet iced tea preferably) in hand by the time your ass hits the seat.
Biscuits and gravy, makes me think of chicken and dumplings, cheesy-garlic mashed tater and peach cobbler. I think the 20 lbs I’d gain in a week would be worth the happy.
I was raised by a Southern Baptist mother, and, yes, that is how you are treated. We would go visit her sisters and brothers in farm country in south Georgia and all of the great southern homecooking just for us would make me develop a southern accent while I was there. LOL
I never appreciated the homemade peach and blueberry cobblers my mom made (the rest of my family did) and homemade ice-cream, but I adored my mom’s chicken and dumplings.
I did a girls’ trip in the mountains hiking. At the time, we were all living in Atlanta, (three of us moved there from Florida), but only two of us had been born in Georgia of Georgia parents. We had to pull over at a roadside stand for boiled peanuts on our way to our getaway cabin, and our two nonsouthern friends were horrified. They could not get our excitement and love of a bag of boiled peanuts.
Yes Jayna, no trip to Georgia is complete without a bag of boiled peanuts. We’d grab some on our way to Florida or Savannah. Yumsters!
Yum, yum. I’m Georgia born and raised, and I’d sop up sausage gravy with a cathead biscuit any day of the week, except when I’m sopping up butter and sorghum syrup!
As far as the acting lessons, and the cameo, no shade. Isn’t a lot of what it takes to be a successful court attorney partially performance anyway? I bet she’d do fine, better than a lot. Maybe not Oscar-worthy, but certainly serviceable for a cameo.
What’s with the vagina sweater vest thing?
Someone called it the vulva sweater upthread, and I had to go back and look. I can’t unsee it now. So pudendal.
What exactly is a new york breakfast? Coffee and a bagel? I’d rather have that than biscuits and gravy.
I think of it as bagel, cream cheese, lox and eggs served a variety of ways.
Look, if my Oscar-winning husband asked me to speak on camera as an actress, the first thing I would do is hie myself to the toughest drama class/coach I could find.
Let’s not find fault where none exists.
But I thought George married Amal precisely because she is not an actress. Doesn’t he remember his friend Cindy’s failed attempts at film? Just because one likes the cameras doesn’t mean she should speak or play a part.
Even with the best training, some people are just not naturally inclined this way. And I think giving her a role will only be an embarrassment to both of them if it’s at all true.
I can’t get past how old both of them look.
The Clooney’s are on the right. I can see how you could get them mixed up though.
However according to the fertility standards in Hollywood both couples are currently on “bump” watch.
Hahahahahah! Brilliant and true😂. Thanks for that, truly!
Hahaha, kcarp, you win the internet today!
This hometown visit seems very politician-y to me.
This is the first thing that came to my mind, too. I think that at some point in the next year or two Clooney will announce his candidacy for some office or other. This dude has seemed to be on a campaign trail of some sort for a while now.
I was surprised he waited to take her to his hometown, but his family does have a summertime reunion. He was photographed visiting last year, as an engaged man, minus Amal.
Or maybe it’s just a family reunion he always attends or going home to visit. Bad George, loves his family, adores his sister and her kids, and actually visits. It has to be an ulterior reason. George is evil, crappy son and brother. Ignore him when over the years he praises his family as his inspiration.. He’s evil, soulless. It’s all a sham. George can’t have any good qualities, not on this site.
@Janya – Much as I side-eye all the PR spin Clooney does, this for me is actually a small but nice burst of spin-free ‘refreshing’.
Not a Clooney fan but that doesn’t mean I can’t step outside my dislike of him and his spin to acknowledge that his spin is not the sum total of him and see a couple that – imo – actually look genuinely happy to be ‘home’.
Why the sarcasm? Why would he NOT love his family, and visit them? Just please also notice that he didn’t even mention/thank his parents when getting his award at the Golden Globes. After all, THEY are the ones who supported him to make it in this industry. He talked about his wife instead, who has nothing to do with his success so far. He’s also trying to sell his tequila to local pubs. Nothing wrong with it, but this was actually a rather public display of a private visit, with lots of pics, and local TV reports. I can’t remember him doing that in the past.
Jayna – Wow! Your post is a masterpiece of temerity and presumption. Nothing about my post indicates that I have any disdain for GC that you just assigned to me. You are barking up the wrong tree.
Siri, well said.
LOL- I was looking at some pictures from other gossip sites, Amal really blends in well doesn’t she?
How do you mean?
I live in Bracken County, KY and am 4 miles as the crow flies from Augusta. Have not seen either of them but then I work about 50 miles away in OH and am only home evenings and weekends. And I LOVE me some biscuits and gravy! But if you really want to try something great, try it with TOMATO GRAVY! My mom in Louisiana makes it. Has bacon and tomato in it and is something really good. She gave me the recipe and I’m going to make that in KY and pretend I’m still visiting with my mom!
Now my mind has jumped to fried green tomatoes. Yumm…
Whoa!! Tomato gravy, is this a recipe you can share or top secret family tradition?! I can trade you a KILLER spinach cheese casserole recipe that STARTS with 3 sticks of butter, 3 rolls of Ritz crackers, and goes UPHILL from there!!
Recipe is as follows: fry about 6 pieces of bacon, set aside and save the grease. Brown flour (seasoned with salt and pepper) until a nice fairly thick base. Use canned, skinned tomatoes that you pour in a bowl and cut into finer pieces with your fingers. Add to the flour base. Add water as necessary. Cook until browned. Crumble the bacon and add to the gravy. Top biscuits. SOOOOO GOOOD!!!
so where is that spinach cheese casserole recipe??? @phlyfiremama ?
Folks over there don’t fall over themselves because of Clooney’s visit. The people from the bakery told the local TV station that HE asked if they wanted a picture with him, and his wife. The woman was like: “Sure!” Visiting local pubs, bringing his tequila, and interrupting basketball games wearing his Casamigos T-shirt, looks like a promotional tour to sell brand Clooney. And Amal in her Pocahontas dress couldn’t look more out of place.
I think the same, hes trying to get some good publicity, and drum up some business for his tequila, because his film career isnt going too well at the moment thats for sure.
I had a dress like that when I was six with matching moccasins. I don’t think anyone much older should sport that look. And I’m not a fan of fringes on anyone who isn’t at Coachella — or riding a mechanical bull.
Hilarious!
Amal or her stylist needs to re-work their interpretation of small-town casual attire.
She is really beautiful and always has perfect makeup and fab hair — I don’t recall ever seeing a major fail in that department.
Nimbolicious, your words took me back to early elementary school. (Sigh) Yes, the matching moccasins were a must!
I adore the couple from the bakery. They don’t look the least bit star struck.
They weren’t. The woman told the local TV station that GEORGE asked if they wanted a picture with him, and his wife. Seems like people over there are very grounded, and simply go about their business. The same reaction came from a boy he briefly played basketball with, like “Yeah, I saw him, it was nice.” The TV reporter told that you can’t impress people over there with ‘starpower’- they simply regard George as someone who “did well for himself”.
Ya’ll need to come on down to Houston if you want some REAL food!! We have the biggest ethnic diversity of restaurants in the USA, and our breakfasts run from plain ole biscuits & gravy to haute cuisine brunches to die for (like baklava french toast, chicken fried ribeye, shrimp & grits) etc.
That crochet dress is DIVINE!!
JoJo, you NAILED it about Michael K!! Well said_my top 3 sites are Lainey, Michael K, and here. Even though there is a lot of repetition, the comments sections always kill me!!
Lol! Scrapple! I haven’t heard that in years. My grandfather loved it. Since moving to Kentucky I’m completely hooked on Sweet tea.
She’s dressing down these days.
