Hey all!!
First off my apologies for not posting last week. As it turned out I had a sick family member to attend to. Also because I am traveling out of the country in a couple weeks, I had to be updated on my Covid vaccine. That new booster took me out for a couple days. My family member and I are doing much better ❤️
So due to this, I will do 2 episodes until caught up because I am serious about discussing and giving opinions on the real housewives. Ok let’s get started with episode 2.
Starting off episode 2 with Sara showcasing her mommy skills. She makes a point to ask her son if cooking was for men or women. He smartly replies “both.” I think that was very important because as she points out that in her culture, it’s different and she wants to raise her son differently. Although she does try to import some of her culture in the upbringing of her kid.
Next we head over to Brooks who meets up for lunch with Lesa. It seems a little on the fake side because in her confessional, she talks more stuff behind her back. Although we have the gossip queen Brooks who already starts the conversation with, “did you see Nina’s Facebook?” My argument here is that Lesa won’t say things to Brooks face, but will behind her back. I give credit to Brooks though because even though she gossips, it does looks like she will say it to your face as well.
Stanbury greets us with making smoothies along side her fiancé. She is then greeted by Brooks and Sara. They talk about the dinner and how Ayans attitude warranted an apology to Brooks. Apparently Sara discloses she’s a life coach and I guess this sets up a possible meet up between the girls later on. Short and sweet.
Hello Ayan, miss thang!! Walking in all in fur and sitting down again complimenting herself on how good she looks. She again is greeted by Nina who is dressed a little more causal. Jump to confessional where they both jab at each other. Nina saying she doesn’t “wear her wealth” and Ayan calling Nina plain. Well… her almost exact words were something like “mashed potatoes with no butter, plain.” Geeze girl give some people a break… what must you think of us peasants below you that can’t afford your lifestyle 🙄 anyways, they start talking about thanksgiving plans to begin the conversation. They then go to the dinner where Ayan apologizes to Nina for her behavior. Then Ayan asks why Nina didn’t defend her. Nina didn’t think it was warranted for her to step in. Ayan goes into why people saying they don’t like her makes her triggered. She gives a little more into her childhood woes. Nina goes on to say how her and Stanbury were not exactly friends but she gave her the benefit. Ayan calls her a flip-flopper in her confessional at that point also calling her boring. Here we go with Ayan now bringing childish into the show with her “you can’t be my friend of you are her friend” attitude. LoL girl with how far you have seemed to come, this should not be that big.
Lesa now takes us to the grocery store with her child shopping for thanksgiving. She ends up getting a call from Nina who talks about the lunch she just had with Ayan. Lesa kinda doesn’t listen too much because she is distracted by her son.
Lesa cooks thanksgiving dinner.
Nina takes her family out to eat and Sara joins her. Gets into conversation about Sara’s love life where we must manifest good love vibes.. which I do. I love seeing love and wish happiness for everyone when it comes to finding the love of their life.
Now this has to be my favorite part of this episode. Ayan brings Lesa a goat to her house for thanksgiving. Apparently in Kenya, it’s a culture thing when you get invited to someone’s even, you give a special gift. Goats are adorable so I am kinda jealous. The conversation goes into Ayans back story on how she met her husband. Married for 20 years it’s amazing to me at this point her ego hasn’t taken over the marriage. Best of luck. It then went tp the Nina lunch with Ayan. Ayan still can’t believe that Nina didn’t stick for her during the dinner. So typical of housewives to keep an issue going.
We now to go Sara and Ayan getting to know each other. They go into their childhoods. Sara seems to have grown up in a nice loving family. Ayan on the other hand goes how her dad beat her and tied her to a tree. Ayan’s dad apparently tried to marry her off at 14. We get to know more and more which really makes me go back to why she lets things with other people affect her this way. It really seems so small compared to what she went through when she was a child. I would have more respect if she was more humble.
Thoughts:
My opinions of everyone really hasn’t changed. As much as I kinda hate to admit at this point, Ayan seems to be the show. Even as self-absorbed and childish as she may be, I am trying to picture the show right now without her and honestly, I think it would have been far worse than it is. What are your thoughts?
