The pile of envelopes (non recyclable) could just be....a pile of empty envelopes.
None of the £50 for 6 French knives shite in there.
Jesus fucking Christ, why does she think this is notable? A lot of people start off working minimum wage jobs in the food industry, doesn’t mean they’re destined to make a career out of itHave we seen this gem before? Ruby T interviews dear Jackie. In this particular gem we learn that Jackie learned all about curing meats working at a supermarket counter.
“I look back and nearly all of my early jobs were in food,” she recounts. “Darren at Debenhams taught me how to cook an egg on the hot plate, and at the supermarket I worked at, I was on the cheese and ham counter for a while. My god, that was fun. I learned loads about cheese and curing meats.”
Jack Monroe Has Written a Cookbook for Food Bank Users
The food writer and campaigner rose to fame in 2012 after her blog on food poverty went viral. She tells us about ‘Tin Can Cook,’ the canned food recipe book she wishes she’d had as a food bank user.www.vice.com
ETA apologies for the overuse of gem. I'm tired.
I have a (small) drawer just for my special sparkly pens. I also went through a wax seal phase and an ink stamp phase. I LOVE stationeryI'll be your friend. I'm an out and proud stationery addict, again,.
It's so sad that people think this is 'legendary' behaviour. Even if you're not closely following her antics, receiving a Twirl in the post is just mediocre. She could've Paypalled them all a pound and they could've bought 4 each. Add in the cost of the postage and well...FFS this is in a Facebook group I like
As well as being v bad for the environment - those plastic Jiffy bags are renowned for shedding their labels in the post. It’s really easy to peel the address labels from them. There only needs to be a corner of sticky label exposed for that label to attach itself to another item of post and whoops, addressless padded envelope.
Oh yes! To me, lovely stationery means... potential. A clean page, planning, a new start! The joy of a fountain pen.I have a (small) drawer just for my special sparkly pens. I also went through a wax seal phase and an ink stamp phase. I LOVE stationery
I have only used a fountain pen my whole writing life. Italic nib. (Or a pencil)Oh yes! To me, lovely stationery means... potential. A clean page, planning, a new start! The joy of a fountain pen.
Sorry....went a bit ..floridly JM there.
Tattle should go ahead and give us the eye rolling reaction for things like this. Reader, I rolled my eyes so hard.FFS this is in a Facebook group I like
The actual queen of thread recaps AND a stationery fan. Swoons.I have a (small) drawer just for my special sparkly pens. I also went through a wax seal phase and an ink stamp phase. I LOVE stationery
Poverty fanny is MY aesthetic never mind Jack'sHello Frau und Herr! Short-time lurker here (apart from one TOO SHORT post). Grunking my way through this thread but I wanted to say thank you for the hoots I’ve had at your collective rapier wit!
I found the coven because a blogger I like expressed a concern about snarking. Blogger in question hadn’t actually visited Tattle as they were too nervous. Which drove me straight here as I am sick of the grifting and shilling fuckwittery of influencers. If you monetise your life, expect attendant scrutiny IMO.
The Jack threads caught my eye, and I’ve been lurking since no. 78. I remember reading her first columns in the Grauniad. I’ve always detested her and found her a cosplay cunt. Poverty my fanny. She’s also highly derivative, a sub-Nigella. Her writing is like bad fan fiction. Fifty shades of beige indeed! She’s also as thick as (90% vegan mince and needs a good scrub.
I nearly succumbed to one of her recipes at the start of lockdown as it was on a Hush newsletter and I was feeling all ‘Blitz spirit in poncey pyjamas’. It was the peach and chickpea curry... it never got made as I actually read the fucking recipe before committing opener to tin. Thank god. My drains wouldn’t be able to cope with it.
It’s so sad to see how many people she’s taken in. And how she doesn’t care. I’m certain she has a PD (EUPD) but she’s still a vile piece of work even if she has. Keep up the good work as her day will come!
edited for typos!
I was also wondering that...wouldn't put it past her.The pile of envelopes (non recyclable) could just be....a pile of empty envelopes.
I’m not being funny but where the fuck are her mates?! Wouldn’t you intervene if your friend’s drawers were looking like this?
Babe, same x !!!! I thought I was just weird! No italic nib, but trusty old fountain pen I've had since school, or a nice pencil (I have some snazzy ones with stars all over them atm.)I have only used a fountain pen my whole writing life. Italic nib. (Or a pencil)
What is she keeping private? It wasn't long ago she went on a big long rant about her gender and a load of squiggles ran away
