The estimate she's earning from her patron alone is $1,117 a month, of course she hides the actual amount she receives.

Konditor & Cook curly whirly cake I think is the best out there although is pretty basic. I can't click on that red magazine link as Hurst magazines are a terrible organisation
Eep! Why are they terrible?

Here it is reproduced on a blog, I don't want to give clicks if they are evil!

Now I'm furloughed I've discovered the absolute treasure trove that is Jack's blog.

Regular *normal* people get drunk and accidentally fall over and lightly bump their head. Jack falls over and its a 'serious accident' resulting in whiplash and concussion and renders her without any cognitive function for seven days.

Yet another recipe that showcases Jacks *crazy quirky weird* mind. Here's an idea...why don't you just chop the vegetables before you heat the oil?? HOW IS THIS WOMAN PAID TO WRITE RECIPES.
There is a reason * all * other chefs do it differently, it’s not some quirky new flavour combination

"Accountant" - that's a bit *fancy* - don't you know how poor she is?
She’ll be trying to find a fan on twitter to do it free (or for one of her godawful fotos as payment )

A thousand ideas whirring around her mind and this is the slop she created also is it possible to get whiplash from a fall?!

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/ultimate-chocolate-cake?amp this is the best chocolate cake I've ever made, and it's pretty much foolproof. Always moist and lovely. If you don't have buttermilk you can just curdle a bit of milk with lemon juice or vinegar for 15 mins. And could fill with a PB buttercream instead of the ganache.

ETA: sorry just seen that loads of other people have also made brilliant suggestions, I'm a bit late to the party in my enthusiasm (god, am I become Jack?)

omg dinnee date would be amazing, although if she ws one of the ones submitting her menu i doibt shed get past that stage
I don’t think she’d cope well if she wasn’t picked for the second date, even if she didn’t want a second date with them in the first place

I’m way behind in the thread (damn you homeschooling/home working) so this has probably been done to death.

There may not be much practical application for these books in those particular settings, but some people are really interested in food, flick through recipes, plan what they’d like to do *some day*. They might be interested in pursuing training when their circumstances change.

No one is hurt or damaged by recipe books (although, granted, following certain instructions may cause gastric upset — pigeon slop, anyone?). I don’t see why anyone in straightened or restricted circumstances* should be denied access to anything like this

(*not you Peter Sutcliffe)

Wonder what happened to her hyped up LockdownLarder, the one she is trying to trademark? She get sick of it already?

Completely empathise with her broadband issues - but those sweet potatoes ain't getting any fresher.

Yay - we need tinned neeps and we are sorted
Couldn't find tinned neeps so in true JM style, found cardboard which luckily I'd stored, whacked on some paint and ta da as if by magic transformed it into something fancy. Totally unrecognisable... I am getting good at this .
