Jack is going to be insufferable this lock down. Louisa?! Whyyy.
Are we SURE that's Jack Monroe's "Jack Monroe's Minestrone Soup" by Jack Monroe with Bootstrap Cook and Jack Monroe? Because it is actually orangey coloured, not brown.
Was trying to figure out why the lentils were drunk, but finally understood that it was HER who was drunk while cooking it - right??I was actually thinking the other day about trying this. Obviously without sultanas or raisins because

It shows that she doesn't understand why "other cooks and chefs" heat oil first. It's not about saving time, it's about avoiding greasy, soggy onions.The thing is, she says in that screenshot that she does chop all her veg and then put it on! So it's something of a brainteaser as to why her slowness at chopping veg has any relation to why she doesn't heat the oil first. By which I mean it makes absolutely zero sense.
100 threads, who would have thunk it back in the heady days of me emulating Jack by shouting at my kids, “sit down I have to see Red....DKL!”. Them asking why the strange lady was grasping a lemon, me realising what privilege they have to know a real lemon, not just bottled.
Big fist pumps (gel up afterwards) to @Pocahontas, @Alansbigplate and the receipts twins @Silver Linings and @Marmalade Atkins Proper bo, Fraus
I thought the pic of it actually looked quite nice and I was craving some sort of coconutty / creamy / almondy thing.Was trying to figure out why the lentils were drunk, but finally understood that it was HER who was drunk while cooking it - right??
I am with you on no sultanas or raisins
The thought of being trapped in a lockdown bubble with Jack is giving me the heebie jeebies.Jack and Louisa back together ...aww how ...um.....sweet.
This is until Jack starts being difficult and Louisa leaves again.
Yes, I wanted to say this! Different states had different rules for their mail-ins, some started counting before, some after the polls closed. Trump is obviously being a bleep about it and wants the counting to stop, despite being fully aware way in advance that this is how their stupid system worked. But he didn’t create the voting system. Jack, your forensic knowledge is seemingly limited to how lockdown support bubbles work.... oh wait!View attachment 300307
Old news from last thread but this tweet from our forensic political journo is complete bollocks.
Some states have rules that the mail in ballots can't be counted until election day, it's nothing to do with Trump. There were just way more mail in ballots than ever before. FAKE NEWS JACK stop mithering on about things you know nothing about.
But the result will no doubt be a rich seam to mine. Rejoice!Jack is going to be insufferable this lock down. Louisa?! Whyyy.
If Jack put as much work into getting work as she does avoiding it, I am sure she could get gainful employment. Though her at work antics might result in that employment being short lived.So, so much fun had in getting to 100 threads. Now, the big question as we make our way into new territory, how will our very own work-shy freeloader still be able to plead poverty and hardship, now that her wealthy tv exec lover is moving back in? It will be tricky but by god if anyone can do it, Monroe can.
Stop mithering on about things you know nothing about, filming work was on her extremely private list!!If Jack put as much work into getting work as she does avoiding it, I am sure she could get gainful employment. Though her at work antics might result in that employment being short lived.
"Swollen" is one of my worst Jack words, when she uses it I almost get sick in my mouth.I was thinking the other day about trying this. Obviously without sultanas or raisins because

Go on, do it. I double dare you. And add the sultanas or raisins just to make it properly authentic Jack. You know if you leave them out and it tastes horrible that it will be your fault.I was thinking the other day about trying this. Obviously without sultanas or raisins because

Welcome back lovely. Hope the dark hole period has somewhat passed and you feel brighter xxCheers mate! Been on self imposed internet exile since September. The noise was just too much for me and i could feel myself slipping down dark hole. Deleted all apps and waved a temporary b'bye to my beloved Cabal.
I logged on to my Twitter earlier this week and saw that a friend had retweeted that bloody awful egg/anchovy monstrosity and knew that you would all be in hysterics over it.
Now on epic Grunkal and am feeling thoroughly cheered up by my fellow Fraus.
I've missed you xxxx
Raises hand and confesses to not liking/eating soup, also a bit off with veg in general. And after seeing jackbots slop I have become more veg averse still can’t believe you guys not only made one of her recipes, but actually tasted them .I really think it is time someone else took a turn at making one of Jack's soups.
Anyone?
Someone at the back there?
You here at the front, you'd like to do it wouldn't you?
How about you hiding your face with a copy of "Depressipies"?
Nobody..........Ah well, at least no ingredients will be wasted. As you were.
