"Courtney," asked Louie brandishing the kettle, "How did you make the stock for dinner?"
Our twinkle toed fellow wasn't after the recipe, he uncovered a gaping hole in our LA lovely's domestic education.
"Did you put the stock cube in the kettle?" he smirked.
The blonde bombshell sheepishly admitted she had! Not that she should give herself too much of a hard time, a handful of past housemates have gone there before her and made gravy in the plug in boiling jug.
Her excuse. "The cube threw me off," she whined. "We have just stock like sugar at home, all crumpled up." Well of course. Cubes can be confusing at the best of times.
Her partner in crime and Blonde Ambition side-kick Lauren had been busy kneading Mario's loaves in the kitchen. And if Courtney was going to have a ditzy moment, Lauren needed to have one too.
"Oh look at that," she said. "We have a toaster."
They've had a toaster since Day 1. When Courtney heard she felt a little better about her silly slip-up.
"We're not dumb and dumber," she said. "We're blonde and blonder." Whatever will they get up to next!
Recall a point made during a previous CBB that many Americans don’t necessarily have a kettle as a “standard” kitchen appliance as they are more likely to have a coffee-maker.

For someone that desperately wants to go Louie is suddenly doing a good impersonation of someone upping their game… and wanting to stay!
11.20am: Lauren's been opening up about her personal history all morning. In the kitchen, Louie and Carol doubt some of the tales.
they really have it in for Lauren since yesterdays Bitchfest where they think she found a voice 
10.44am: Amazing scenes. Louie asked Lauren to nibble Mario's bread loaf which he was holding at Mario's abdomen. She obliged.
11.30am: Here's the moment Louie fed Lauren Mario's crust.

How condescending of Charlotte to say Lauren was speaking like a normal person and Lauren started giving interviews as a child so it's not like she's never done that before, how many interviews has Charlotte given...would anyone even be interested in what she had to say

Good news I wrote elsewhere that if Lauren doesn't win I won't mind if Abz does, forgot to mention that I don't mind if Vicky does either. Any of those 3 are more deserving than any of the other lot, imo
1.28pm: Carol, Mario and Louie gripe about the quality of beverage BB put on last night.
Easy, gang! It's not the Saveloy Hotel.
this is interesting as there is a Star story today that suggests recently [ not sure when ] Courtney and Carol were reprimanded for their drinking and flashing in the bedroom - then ordered over the tanoy into the house to stop drinking and Louis and Mario were told to take the bottles away - filming stopped while this was going on if this garbage is true but a topless pic of Courtney has been leaked by an assumed BB insider 
maybe they just bought cheap low alcoholic booze for them last night
5:04pm: BB gives birth to beautiful art. This is 'Cereal Stack' by Abz. Beautiful, we think you'll agree
Day 20: Fourty-Love! It's Tennis Ball task time
1 hour ago
Remember during this summer's Big Brother, when some mysterious tennis balls appeared in the garden, bearing cryptic messages? Well, we sure do! Maybe our celebrity housemates do, too, if they were as glued to their screens as you were.
Today, Mario has been given a secret task: he must plant four message-laden tennis balls in the House garden, filling in the blanks with the names of the housemates who did not receive their letters from home the other day to complete these statements:
__________ is fake and a game player.
__________ has been offered £1million to pose naked.
__________ is most boring housemate ever.
__________ is favourite to win.
Once they are discovered, he must play a part in convincing the housemates in question that the statements are true. If he succeeds, Courtney, Charlotte, Louie and Lauren will receive the letters their loved ones wrote them. Lovely.
6.06pm: Chatter has turned to mysterious tennis balls. This is because, on a task for BB, Mario is planting them around the house.
6.21pm: Mario is discussing the tennis balls that have been 'thrown' into the garden with Charlotte. It's quite the show.
I wonder if he'll say Lauren is fake, Courtney for the million, Louie is boring and Charlotte for the win
7.20pm: The HMs have gathered on the sofa to be told that Mario was the culprit behind the tennis balls.
7.22pm: The prize is the remaining letters from home!
7.23pm: Carol has just read Louie his letter, and now Courtney is reading Lauren's. Tears are a-flowin'.
7.28pm: Abz has just read Courtney's letter from her mum. We wish Abz was OUR mum :
7.33pm: Charlotte is the last to get her letter. Mario's tennis ball sneakiness is applauded by all, game set & match.

Aww, now I've just listened to Abz giving a present to Louie and to Lauren, what a beautiful human being, the world needs more people like him instead of all the negative stuff being said. Lauren or Abz to win for me 
^^^ good job Vicky didn't hear what Carol said about her on LF
Day 20 round-up: Mario gets his balls in order
38 mins ago
As morning broke on Day 20, a few of the housemates were feeling a little bit worse for wear following quite a merry evening. Charlotte had a bit of a hissyfit during a routine game of Sock Ball, but Louie and Lauren lightened the mood in the House with a quick bit of showbiz business. Mario got involved, and Lauren took, well, a bite of his loaf. There's really no other way to put that.
Mario had only just recovered from his bready liaison when Big Brother gave him a secret task, concerning his balls. Minds out of the gutter, you lot: Mario had to scrawl secret messages on some tennis balls, and plant them in the garden. After some scepticism the housemates truly believed that the messages had come from the mysterious Outside World, and this success won letters from home for Courtney and Charlotte and Louie and Lauren. Awww, bless!
As the evening wore on, Abz presented Louie with a lovely gift, leaving the dancing maestro more than a little touched. Bless. Much chit-chat was had, and Courtney got some ego-stroking from Vicky, while Abz had a lovely heart to heart with Lauren. Louie started to reflect on the impending end of the show, and Carol had a little bit of a sleep mumble about Vicky. Seems she wants a certain Janice Battersby out of the House come tomorrow's double eviction...
Ah yes, double eviction. Surely you hadn't forgotten? See you there!
