Mary McDonald

Chris Rockin' the House

Mary gives us some insight into her sense of humor, and which MDD is the best chef.

May 31, 2011

So my dear Nathan is the most charming fabulous cook I know. You'll see. Speaking of cooks who knew Kathryn's boys would make such a delicious dinner? All sneezy, germy guacamole aside, our dinner was delicious, seriously. We had an out of this world salad niçoise with fresh tuna. Now if I had seen all that teenage sniffling and germ-laden coughing going into the guacamole, perhaps I would not have surgically attached myself to it all evening. Seriously, I never left the bowl until I moved onto the salad.

Kathryn throws a great party and really knows how to live. Let's get her to invite us all to her French Country house by the thousands. What do you all think? Summer is coming. Kathryn what do you say? Oh we could have contest with the prize being 10 people that get to come to Kathryn's with all of us. She is going to kill me. I hope she thinks is funny!

For the premiere, our showmate, Martyn Lawrence Bullard is so generously hosting a party for us at the Soho House in the private screening room where we can all have a laugh together. We wish you could all be there because we really do all have fun.

Now stay tuned for next week's dramas and hurry and buy my book on Amazon before it goes into a third printing!

Cheers,

Mary

Mary McDonald - I loved the "glass" pendant necklace - where did you get it???  Thanks

This first episode was so much fun to watch! I'm very excited and really looking forward to all the episodes to come! Come? Well......you all do seem to explode with artistic flair. Ha! This might be my favorite after Bethenny....of course!

I just LOVE you! You're precious! I actually googled your website this morning and when I went there, I reallized I had been there before! I had stumbled upon your site forever ago and was blown away... and on top of all of that, I saw a picture in your portfolio of an office space that I had seen in a Domino magazine over 4 years ago that I had patterned my daughter's nursery after. Black and pink with black curtains, and lots of acrylic! It worked perfectly for a baby girl room with just a few baby girl items... I had to comment... it was just too big of a coincidence this morning! Can't wait to see what you do the rest of the season! God Bless~

This is the best show ever. I love all of you. Your designing is all so different, but all so beautiful. I just wish the Million Dollar Decorating could air 5 days a week. Next to my husband, you are the best thing I saw last night.

Mary, where did you get that maxi dress that you wear to the dinner party? It's amazing.

Ummm you aint no chris rock lol.

Love! Love! Love! I love the show and you! I bought your book today at Barnes & Noble. I knew your name and had enjoyed seeing rooms and homes you have done in magazines for quite some time. I'm so glad there is a new show for those of us who love decorating and design. I'm so happy that all of you seem to like and respect one another. I can't wait for more episodes!

Love, love, love you and the show! It was so much fun to watch. I found myself wanting to be sitting with you in your office. Being able to create a connection with the audience like that in one show is amazing! I can't wait for the rest of the season. I am already addicted.

I completely loved the first episode of this great show. YOU are indeed glamorous, stylish, beautiful and make absolutely divine living spaces. This is my favorite Bravo show.

You have a great gift of style. Love this show!

Love Love Love you!!!!! You are like Karen from Will & Grace!

I tried to post a comment after the show the other night but I guess they don't all go through. Anyway, LOVED the show and LOVE you!!! So inspiring and so much fun. Can't wait for more. I am a long time fan of work and your book is my all time favorite - any chance you'll do another and when will your fabric line be out?

Best, Kerry

Hi Mary, I did not get to see it. I just stumbled upon the information that you are doing it. Congratulations on the show and your book. I am very happy for you. Take care, sweet girl. Maureen

I wouldn’t worry over “$5 mil…” comment. For most people, your “I could easily spend $5 million on a home” sound repulsive but the reality is quite different. Anyone can spend $5 mil on a home. It takes only one great listed painting to meet that amount. I could easily spend $30-50M on a home – no problem.

Mary, I just have to mention your comment: "I'm kooky, not koo-koo!" I have borrowed that that line for my life as a menopausal designer!! Love your self-deprecating humor!! Can't wait for the next show!

Wow! Dame Mary Your a incredible Lady of superb edited Taste, Style & Grace! even charming wit! how marvelous for our industry that real designer's & fortitude of great cabliber of client's comfort's, so sharing of there generous life styles! Just adore everyone, its just so elating & inspiring I have a crush on Nathan what a handsome gifted & darling man! Martyn is just Bespoke & the dandy of all things of good taste & European elegance with a sporty edge, just so delighted for the entire cast! Congratulation's its just splendore & a visual feast ! Bravo BRAVO!

Haha. I woke up down today. You've chereed me up!
