[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm actually from the countryside and I can't stand her. The food she makes is loaded with calories but suspiciously absent of flavor. Her writing is really "oh gosh, lil' ol' me?!" twee.

I hate that she pretends to be "country" when she's just a shrewd marketer who is hustling her lifestyle hard core. It's really distasteful and hypocritical to me.[/quote]

God forbid a non-urban woman be a shrewd, hardworking businesswoman. Blows out DCUM paradigms right out of the water.[/quote]

SHE is urban.  Her HUSBAND and his family and HIS money are not.

She grew up in an Oklahoma town, not a city. I'm amazed by the bitter nitpicking I see on here. I do remember when her blog became popular and read it for a while although the food didn't interest me. She has a tongue in cheek humor so her readers know she isn't being pretentious as she's never hid anything. She's always been frank about being the daughter of a surgeon with a house on the golf course and anyone with an ounce of sensibility knows the Drummonds are well off just from looking at the photos she posts all the time. Regardless of their wealth, they are an active ranching family and all family members are engaged in ranching activities. It's a hugely different lifestyle from the cul de sacs or the daily 9-5 grind of DC.

I did make one or two things and they were very rich, or in the case of the sheet cake, very sweet. But her demographic is middle America and that's just fine for them. Why does it bother you? These angry posts about Pioneer Woman reek of jealousy.

It bothers me because she is ridiculous.
On her shows she tries Asian accents or New York ones. Not nice and not appealing. I can not stand the way she talks sometimes.
