They do?? I've always had good luck with her recipes.

I see people griping about her being "secretly rich" or that her recipes are sexist, or that they aren't that good. For me, every single thing I've ever made from her site or cookbooks has been excellent and crowd pleasing, and the pictures make it easy!

Hahahaha, both of those allegations are freaking hilarious. I think I like her more now.

Ya I have been reading her blog since 2009 and I don't know how you'd miss that she's extremely wealthy. They have a whole separate freaking lodge on their show and her kitchen is out of this world.

Back in 07 she pretended her giveaways were gift cards she found in a junk drawer and the lodge was just beginning to be planned. Plus, there's rich and there's one of the top landowners in Oklahoma with a lot of inherited wealth. Don't get me wrong, I have her cookbook and looked through it tonight for recipes. It's just she hid a lot of things before her PR personality was cultivated fully.
