GIUDICE: Teresa and Joe Giudice's money problems, bankruptcy and court lawsuits are well known and documented. I was proud of Teresa when she said they want the children to know Christmas is not about material things, its's about love and family. Cut to the Giudice home on Christmas morning, the kids hopping on the bed, asking if they can open their gifts without their [sleeping] father. Of course the answer is NO, so they all head downstairs toward the gifts. Gifts including, not limited to: Uggs: $160, a kids pro drum set $199.95, a Mercedes Benz kids car: $560. Hmm...Teresa then says, "The kids are thanking Santa, giving him credit when I was the one running around getting them everything they want." ...I'm not so proud now.

GORGA: Check out the cutest lost footage of Melissa and Joe Gorga's children doing their Christmas Photos. And yes, since Melissa is doing it, Teresa had to Click to View

MANZO: Suffering from Empty Nest Syndrome the Manzos go for a stroll [really a drive] down memory lane. Albie and Chris are having Christmas in their new Hoboken digs, Lauren's with her boyfriend and their family whick leaves Caroline and Albert alone. This is their first time with no children on Christmas. Albert uses this as time for riding the same route they did many years ago. Reminiscing on when the children were little they would drive around to see the Christmas lights. Before the children, reminiscing when he was broke and so nervous when he proposed. At that moment, Albert stops the car, gets out, opens her car door and...

Rodney Strong Vineyards Symmetry Meritage

This Meritage fills your glass was dark palatinate purple and deep rosewood color hues. The fragrant aroma blends the ripest black fruits including mulberries, figs and plums among a backdrop of cinnamon sugar cookie dough. Extremely full-bodied the taste is complex and offers layer upon layer of huckleberry, loganberry and blackberry. The mouthfeel is silky, round, and peppered with sweet culinary spices like anise, fennel and clove.  Symmetry's finish is long and lingering, leaving you with blasts of the previous notes and a hint of blueberry pie.

Tonight's RHoNY SIP.WATCH.TWEET™

We're sipping: Château Giscours Le Rosé de Giscours

Preview Ramona and LuAnn squaring off on Parenting Skills: Click Here

I am definitely not looking forward to watching LuAnn's video tonight. Apparently, Ramona's feelings were similar in regards to being in her video. Ramona wonders aloud what the "real" reason is for LuAnn wanting to have all the "Housewives" in her video. She suspects it has more to do with publicity than being a supportive part of the experience. Ramona implies LuAnn spends more time in the city than with her daughter in Southampton. LuAnn implies that despite, not because of Ramona, somehow Avery [Ramona's daughter] is a wonderful young lady... 

It continues to be like the "Blondes v Brunettes", I don't know if it's organic or made to look that way by Bravo. In any case, we all love watching the very expensive fish swim in their Bvlgari fish bowl every single week. I just wish we didn't have to endure LuAnn's second attempt at being a pop princess. Oh, well. Hide your ears, Hide your eyes...

Château Giscours Le Rosé de Giscours

Giscours Le Rosé is a Bordeaux blend of Cabernet Franc and Merlot and is a fabulous summer sipping wine. It glows sheer almost translucent hues of salmon and pale goldenrod in your glass. The nose is extremely aromatic with floral notes of freesia and hydrangea with a hint of Mandarin peel. The mouth feel is light and crisp with notes of citrus fruits like kumquats, blood orange and meyer lemon. The finish is short yet powerful and slightly acidic with granny smith apple on the back end.

We're Sipping Etude Rose of Pinot Noir Carneros

Once again, a "musical debut" of LuAnn's...Listening to it I have to ask myself the same thing I asked when she dropped her first single. IS SHE SERIOUS?! I mean, seriously. "Money can't buy you class" but it obviously can buy you two singles that are at best, entertainingly funny. Click Here to Watch Her "Video" You be the judge and let me know if she's in on the joke or is the joke on her? Before shooting her video she brought Jill with her to listen to her latest "song". Jill being...well, Jill of course had to put her nose where it doesn't belong. Jill tells Chris [LuAnn's producer/manager] how she would remix it...

Meanwhile back on the Upper East Side Ramona and Sonja are shopping for Sonja's naughty burlesque themed party. Sonja is absolutely the epitome of 40s being the new 20s because she is as sexy and hot as ever. And Ramona? She's no slouch herself! I refuse to believe she's as old as it's been reported! Peek in the dressing area while Avery looks on and "prohibits" her mother [Ramona] from buying what she deems as "understand" by Clicking Here. Speaking of party...

Here's the SIP for tonight's SIP.WATCH.TWEET.™

Etude Rosé of Pinot Noir

Perfect for summer sipping this Rose shines from within your glass of a spring like coral and salmon pink color hues. The nose is that of strawberries, mulberries and rainier cherries. The summer like fragrance of this Rosé  of Pinot Noir prepares your taste buds for the fruity ride. Bing cherry, rhubarb and Sicilian blood orange. The mouth feel has an oxymoron blend of cranberry-citrus acidity and silky mineral notes. The finish is crisp and powerful with a hint of lingonberry.
