Jackie Goldschneider and her cast mates just returned to "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" for the 11th season of their Bravo reality show but already, Goldschneider is looking forward to the upcoming taping of their reunion.

While appearing on the March 25 episode of the "Mention It All" podcast, the mother of four admitted that she's been thinking about the special each and every day.

"I’m thinking about the reunion every day. Obviously we're gonna address the issues, but I want it to be done in a respectable way," she explained. 

Throughout the first few episodes of the series, Goldschneider and her marriage to husband Evan Goldschneider have been front and center due to a cheating rumor Teresa Giudice repeated during the premiere episode.

"I don’t want my family dragged anymore--I just think that’s very below the belt," Goldschneider said of her hopes for the season 11 reunion. "I know I'm gonna get into it with Teresa but I'm hoping she keeps it above board and does not try to drag my husband down anymore and isn’t super vicious, because I just don’t feel like that’s necessary for a reality show."

While Goldschneider understands that her drama with Giudice needs to be brought up, she believes that they should keep things clean as they attempt to talk through the events of the season.

"We can keep it above board and still have plenty of drama," she stated.

"I have to defend myself but I don’t want to be vicious in return," she continued. "There’s also a double standard, clearly she can say whatever she wants, I can’t even mention the name of anyone in her family or I get attacked. I’m just hoping it’s not taken to that level.” 

In addition to filming the 11th season of "The Real Housewives of New Jersey," Goldschneider has also been busy working on her upcoming book, which she said will be far different than past publications from her fellow "Real Housewives" stars.

“I think I’m going to have a very different writing process than my fellow housewives--I’m writing my own book," she shared, getting a bit shady. "There’s no ghost writers involved, no co-writers. I wouldn't want anybody else putting into words my life experience.” 

When Goldschneider was then asked which co-star she'd like to cook her dinner, she joked that Giudice would be her first choice. 

“I would say Teresa but I would be afraid that she would throw a little something extra in it, so maybe not," she laughed. "Either Teresa or Melissa, they’re both great cooks.”
