Does anybody actually believe that Teresa only cares about money?
Excuse me, but is no one going to tell us how the tagliatelle was?
After all these years, it’s still surreal to see Teresa and Danielle as allies.

Among our gifts: Joe Gorga in a sparkly onesie, and the return of Kim G.!

More than one, that's for sure.
Wow!
