    eating the ccokie while interviewing maryann was rude enough but you took it over the top when you used exclusionary and then proceeded to correct maryann when she used the word. shame, shame, shame!

    Please note that the originator of the pie design showcased on this episode should be credited to Ali Bee's Bake Shop. I saw her design a year and a half ago and loved it!

    Shame on you Martha! Exclusionary IS a word. You should make you guests feel comfortable. She showed such grace by not correcting you in front of everyone. Shame shame shame!
