Weed without munchies?! That sounds like every pot smoker's dream!

Well, it turns out Bethenny Frankel is trying to make dreams come true by designing a strain of "Skinnygirl Marijuana" that will give you the high without the unfortunate munchies that usually go along with the drug, Us Weekly reports. The Real Housewives of New York City star recently traveled to Aspen, Colorado where she was spotted leaving the Green Dragon, a marijuana dispensary, looking relaxed and cool dressed in black from head to toe.

"OMG it's the craziest thing to see marijuana legal in Aspen," she tweeted in December. "People walking into pot stores like it's the @Gap #prohibitiondone."

A source told the magazine that the Skinnygirl mogul "read about how profitable the cannabis industry is and wants to get in on that." The mother of Bryn, 4, has been dabbling in all sorts of businesses recently, whether it is with her line of "skinny" cocktails or even getting back into reality TV after a cancelled talk show.

She recently stopped by the Meredith Vieira Show to discuss her return to the small screen and why she had to keep it a secret for so long.

"As they say on the Housewives, 'Why would you lie to me, bitch?'" Vieira joked after recalling Frankel's on-screen denial just two weeks before the announcement.

"Did I say I have no deal to go back on Bravo? Did I say that? I was not lying," she told the host. "No, this is truth. I had no deal to go back on Bravo and you know, Meredith Vieira, with your own talk show, that if you don't have a deal and it's not signed the deal can fall through at any time."

Frankel also assured her Bravo fans that there will be plenty of drama on the upcoming season of the reality TV show. She tweeted to a fan who was wondering what was brewing and said, "Dude, don't u worry. I got you. The show is gonna be awesome!"
