Sandra is a mid-western girl…kind, sweet, unassuming. Her use of ‘doll it up’ and ‘can I tell you’ are nourishing. The snotty comments I have just read are rather startling. wow…such meanies. Sandra offers quick solutions to those of us who love to cook, but also need quick go-tos as well. She is right up there with Rachel and Ina in my book. Cool off, folks!

Wow. I think you all are taking this WAY too seriously! Maybe you should consider trying one of “Aunt Sandy’s” cocktails and CHILL THE F OUT! During your little time out maybe it would occur to you that no one expects the average person to have cocktails and perfect tablescapes at Every meal. However, she gives ideas for the once in a while nice occasion a person wants to put on. And considering how not everyone will host the SAME occasion, she gives nice variety.
Stacy, you are the voice of reason within this verbal word vomit bucket.

I agree Tatiana. My mother was a woman getting it done. She had 2 kids that both had their after school activities, a full time job and for 3 years a husband that was going through cancer treatments. Never once did she cook something that was crappy like SAAndra. She would put stuff in her crock pot, but it was real food, not some packaged shit that she poured in there so she could spend more time drinking. SAAndra gives a bad name to women and for those women who are getting it done, she is offensive.

I just dont see how anyone could sit down at one of her tablescapes, you cant see the other diners, and with all the crap on the table, where does that semi-homemade food go? You sure as hell cant eat at the table. Yeah, I am a single mother, and I have the time to create that, let alone a special cocktail for every meal….sorry Princess Sandra, you live in America…WE’RE BROKE!!!!

Cristine: “In my opinion, I thought it was really rude of her to say to her brother “of course you are! everybody knows that!” after he came out.”

Cristine, I think it’s obvious that she was trying to assure him she had no problem with his being gay. It was kind of her, not rude.

I think “accepting quality” means she can accept anything regardless of the quality.

Also, #8 is sad but funny.

Oh lord. My mom actually likes Sandra Lee. Not sure why.
I,however, can’t stand her. She needs to take her nasty-ass “russipies” or however the hell she says it and just go away.
Kwanzaa Cake FTW.

I agree that Jillian’s article itself wasn’t mean, (snarky, yes, which we expect and enjoy) but some of these posts sure have been. I don’t watch Semi-Homemade because I try to feed my family out of a can/box as seldom as possible, but I don’t find Aunt Sandy particularly offensive (though the “expresso” thing and some of the other, um, creative pronunciations would seriously bug me if I did watch regularly). A while back, I did watch the Chefography on her life and came out of it feeling like she was someone who really got handed a plate of steamy turds most of her life and instead of turning into a bitter wasteoid came out on the other side with money in the bank and a variety of drinks to choose from on her tablescape.
