No Sympathy For Vilas-Boas Here...

'Real Housewives of New Jersey' recap: Tawkin' turkey with Teresa Giudice

16.10.01

Let’s give thanks, for we finally discover what is at the root of the feud between “Real Housewives of New Jersey” stars Melissa Gorga and her sister-in-law Teresa Giudice . To hear Teresa tell it, Melissa’s sins have been grave indeed. First she gives Teresa and husband Joe a card congratulating them on the renovation of their Towaco manse, but Joe suspects it was a “2-cent card,” or perhaps even one printed off her computer. And Teresa doesn’t care for the wording: “Teresa and Joe, God bless you guys in your redone home.” Sorta rhymes.

In this time of grief, be comforted in knowing that our Creator has a plan for each of us to reach our full potential in a world beyond the one we know.” Another example is, “It is often difficult for us to understand why loved ones are taken from us unexpectedly. During these times, when our hopes are dashed and our strength is tested, we can find solace in the comforting words of our friends and strength through the promise of our Lord.”Those who have no religious belief can also be comforted in their time of grief with a sympathy card. Two examples are, “I share your pain in the loss of our dear friend who is no longer here to laugh with us.

Better live it up while we can.”
