This is when I tuned in. What the hell was that thing she put the
cake on? It looked like some old rusted out foot stool she found in
her garage.

I wish we could have seen her drag her dining room table and living
room chairs across the lawn. That would have been a show in itself.
All to surprise her husband? Hmmmm, how many men did you have over to
help move the furniture, Sandra? (I guess a couple of girlfriends
could have done it, too, but my guess is Sandra would employ men to do
that kind of job).

I just don't understand those outfits with the giant sleeves. Or why
she feels the need to cook in her "party clothes" at all. With all
the coming and going she does before and after commercials, a change
of clothes, before showing off the tablescape, would at least be a
more realistic aspect of the show.
