Everyody knows...

That I LOVE the real housewives of anywhere.  Seriously, I think it's an addiction.  Is it that I love to watch a train wreck while it's happening?  Is it beacause I love to know that they are actually successful at portraying the fact that money doesn't buy happiness?  Is it just that I love Andy Cohen so much?  THAT's an entire other post.  LOVE LOVE LOVE Andy.  What a genius.  I also love that he does his after show on a set that looks just like his apartment (although I'm hoping he's gotten an interior designer since the show started). 
So, I want to know who is YOUR favorite housewife?
I'm conflicted.  I love so many of them.  Love to HATE some of them.  My favorite of all time is Bethenney, for sure.  I love her new show, too.  She's so candid and funny as hell.
My favorite current housewife would have to be Phaedra...cause everybody knows...she has the best quotes.  A few of my faves...

On Kim's education: If Miss Kim was a nurse, I guess that's one of those mail-order degrees that you can get for $59.


On becoming a mother: Before this I was fancy-free and footloose, running around shopping and doing, you know, whatever I wanted to do... and now I'm sort of chained to this baby... we'll see how this turns out.

On sweetening up her va-jay-jay... yes, you read that right: The powdered sugar really, like, turns into really sweet syrupy... it tastes delicious!

More deep thoughts on the joys of motherhood: I'm very nervous about having this baby... I work out every day, I have to get my massage three times a week, I have to get my manicure-pedicure at least once a week, I've got to get my facials... it takes a lot to be me and look this good.

On what's important: This is why I hired Latoya because she can figure out this milk and penis ointment, and I can just spend my time buying cute clothes for my baby and spoiling myself.

Or... maybe he's full term?: My labor is being induced because the baby is fully developed and he's ready to climb out of my vagina.

On how she plans on raising Ayden: This child will be gettin' a whoopin'. If he looks at me sideways, I'mma beat the hell out of him.

On her husband's white culinary tastes: Apollo does not like very elaborate dishes, and I'm a connoisseur of finer foods. You know, growing up in a white household, he's not used to all this fancy stuff... he likes canned foods... he likes packed meats... he just doesn't care.

On the miracle of childbirth: I'm having anything they can give me to take off the edge cause I cannot be screaming like a wolf and poopin' on no tables.

On her Miami stripper connections: I’mma get some interesting penises to show up to y'all... I know a stripper that can give himself head.

Read this in my Reader and had to come comment - LOVE, LOVE your Phaedra quotes. She is nutty as can be, and so dang entertaining. Kills me!!

I also love RH of anywhere and Andy Cohen! Bethenny is by far my favorite as well, and NYC and BH are my favorites of all the series. I really disliked Phaedra at first, but she really grew on me throughout her season and by the end I really liked her!

Glad you're back! .... Love the Real Ho-wives in all iterations myself. Wasn't too keen on Phaedra after that first canned meat comment early on, but she grew on me. Love Lisa Vanderpump (her name alone)and Kyle. Even Crazy Kim is hilarious on RH of BH. Miami is kind of a bust except for when Marysol & Elsa are on. Larsa doesn't seem to have much going on besides a compulsion to pronounce everything "cute", whether she's being complimentary, ironic or bitchy. As for NYC, I liked it better when Simon and Alex were social climbing weirdos and Ramona was an eye-popping freak. I don't know how interesting it will be without Bethenny.
