The Rose Report: Some Whine with that?

After a hiatus from the Bachelorette..because I Ashley was super annoying. Ben, the owner of a winery is the Bachelor. I fell a little in love with Ben last season. His genuine nature, gently tousled hair, dry sense of humour, closeness with this family...really I could go on..

But..allow me to be the sommelier of Ben's first picks and what he will leave in the and He's still completely adorable. Since I must..Let the journey begin..with limos of course.

In the parade out of the limos-there of the most awkward 'set me apart from the other 24 girls' conversations. Erica the law student's verdict guilty of being sexy with the pow pow finger motion accompanied with a click click sound made me cringe inwardly and outwardly. Some of them were Brut-al. Here are the the top notes:)

The Baconator? Really? It's good to be cutesy, but most girls don't like to be associated with swine, despite being the lower fat content Canadian variety..then she topped that off with wanna taste? Hmmm. Ben does wine tastings, not faux person/pork tastings. I was wondering what he would do- he tastefully kissed her hand. Well at least Canadian Amber is called the Baconator..and doesn't go by pork hock.

Elyse....the personal trainer..looked a bit like she was doing lunges when she was walking in her dress..maybe heels + lunges is better for the backside. I'll have to try it...
Jenna blogger..she seemed so cute.. a it Carrie Bradshaw esque..that what I was hoping for..but she stumbled and misquoted Ben's quote (bad for a writer)..and she fumbled in speaking with him..when she blogs about dating (oops..feeling a bit self conscious..moving along)


Emily...in the era of product placement I wondered if Emily's santizing hand lotion and mouth spray was an FDA promotion of hand hygience. Hmmm if they've seen any season of the Bachelor..hand hygiene is the least of their worries in terms of disease fighting. We'll see if she makes it to the FOD.

Amber T critical care nurse, with her reappearance and cheesy line just in case you don't believe in love at first sight, let me let you see it again...wow horrible. Who writes for this show.

Holly the Kentucky woman known beautiful women and fast horses. Hmm not according to Pitbull..apparently it's Miami...

Did anyone notice that mid way Ben said I'm loving the brunettes!! Ah Ben...so lovely and earthy.

Shira- I think the worst exchange with Ben. " I know everyothing about wine" "Oops..not I don't I just drink it"...

Blakely.gorgeous girl..but what's a VIP Cocktail waitress? And what was with the feathers..were those earrings or hair extensions..and I thought feathers were very early 2011.

Jennifer the accountant. Now we all know accountants are a blast..so she whipped out some numbers...numbers..1190 miles 0 arrested; 54; dresses 1 times in love..hopefully maki it 2.

Anna....the student..kind of reminded me of the girl with fangs.
Shawn..I always cheer for the single moms..b/c they likely have to do a lot of organizing to do this show..but what was up with that dress?? That was one crazy shade of green...very shiny green.

And finally.. Lindzi..who rode in on the horse...that's a bit of a gamble..I know she likes horses and all...but would you want to risk smelling of horse all night. Ben very elegantly helped her dismount:)

On to the Bachelor meet and greet,did you notice that Ben (wisely) was drinking water..and not wine..maybe the wine doesn't meet his standards.

Yikes..it's getting late..a few more words about the bachelor party..the mood was spicy (monica and blakely), steely (Rachel the model), hollow (Jenna). Oh..and what about grandma. We were led to believe she'd be a bachelorette..she was very lovely, but she didn't add much depth to the show ..nor did her granddaughter..they all just sat around and exchanged niceties. Ben was very much a gentleman though (sigh).

Dianna and her choice to blindfold Ben and feed him candy was tawdry a completely pointless. Emily...pulled some serious Kanye and put together a fabulous rap. She stuck with the epidemiology them..but seriously..i'd move away from the bacterial theme..maybe he'd get yeast and fermentation with the wine thing..but bacteria and diseases don't seem to romantic to me.

I started to feel unwell for Jenna..was she really drunk or paralysed from anxiety. Either way it wasn't flattery..and she did a classic first night at the mansion thing and cried in the bathroom from the pressure. Dating's a pressure cooker...and you don't wanna be the bottom of the wine barrel.

First impression rose went to Lindzi and the horse she came in on..oh no..it wasn't because of the horse Ben said. She does seem cute and fun:)

And the roses were awarded..biggest shocker of the night..Jenna was picked!! Or maybe that was a producer's pick..she will be sure afford the viewers some unfortunate drama... He did say no to the baconator..so back to Canada she goes.. Too bad about Amber..the critical care nurse, she seemed nice..even thought I"m sure she had two bump-its in her hair...

Until next time..I LOVE THIS SHOW!!!!!!
