Sacramento Parent is one of those free advertorial magazines you see in places that moms tend to gather. Typically it features local parents, mostly moms, and articles of interest to families.
The cover of this month’s edition features “The Real Housewives of Sacramento” (2009 called, it wants its pop cultural reference back). The article itself is light on substance (the moms struggle with trying to do too much! Some random person that you don’t know turns out to be a gun lover!) but the cover photo is pretty barftastic:
“What makes these moms really beautiful is their dedication to their family and the love they have for their children.” Doesn’t hurt to have your shame center surgically removed, either.
I won’t shut up today, I know, but this is my second beef of the day..or maybe actually worse than Smud. I don’t know where to start with this (although your 2009 reference was spot on, good work) but the fact that I picked it up in my 5 year old’s private school classroom the other day is pretty gross. The editor’s letter at the beginning screams, ‘they made me do this! please don’t think it was my idea because I might need another job soon!’ which I’m sure is accurate. Lastly, when I can see photoshopped tan lines on your legs? No. Just no. Appalling.

Oh my gosh I think I just woke my baby laughing out loud at this. Now I won’t have time to change into slightly-more-clean yoga pants. Hilarious.

How about the fact that the article is called “Real Housewives of Sacramento,” but the majority of the women profiled don’t even live in Sacramento County?!?!?!?!?
