Gee, I never paid much attention to the ads on Drop Dead Diva. The storylines do annoy me sometimes, like why does it all have to boil down to her size? And if Deb the beautiful, skinny model inside of Jane can’t remember Jane’s own mom then why is it that she does remember to make a sandwich the size of Rhode Island which she cuts in half and shares with the handsome lawyer and then leaves on the counter? No, fat girl would leave half of a perfectly good sandwich.

And why do I long for her to go on the same weight loss journey that I’m on? and how would that totally change the show. I do love her new love interest! He is a hottie!

I don’t know why, but I was reminded of this weekend when I was shopping, I passed a weight loss center in a strip mall which was surrounded by a fried chicken joint, a desert place advertising cake on a stick, a chipotle, and a burger shop. My two thoughts – one, no wonder why they need that center and two, how tempting is it to go off the wagon when there are about 10 places to get a 2000 calorie meal within spitting distance.

Anyhooo, off my tangent, I think it’s pretty lame. I think your analogies are spot on, but marketing pretty much sells out to the highest bidder as long as it’s to the target market. Olympics being sponsored by Coca Cola and Budweiser? Yeah…

That quesa-dilla (said like Napolean Dynamite) looks yumtastic. I’ll have to try that. I have some sitting around waiting to find my mouth soon…

yeah, i understand the disconnect between the two – there is such a fine line between advertising and advertising in a way that aligns with your beliefs. unfortunately, most advertising does not follow the latter.

loving those blue corn tortillas!

ya know, I still haven’t seen this show, I’ve thought about DVRing it, just to see what it’s all about.

That quesadilla looks so awesome! I wish I had a Trader Joe’s around here.
