Jack Monroe #107 The writing’s on the wallpaper

[BooBooPoohPooh]

I've got this image of stargazy pie with bits of tinned sardine poking out around the edges, maybe jm could get SB and BB to fashion small hats for the sardines out of tin foil and felt pen lids.

Just not Jack's pens, ok?

Thanks and duck off.

Your son needs vegetables Jack, that’s who.

I would've thought that with America being her "second largest audience" she would know that literally everything here is cinnamon flavoured all year round, the pumpkin spice and eggnog flavours start for autumn/winter

I see we’re in for a night of it, Fraus

Actually squiggle I’d say they’re about even at best...

Edit- do we accept early thread title offerings from unknowing squigs?

Nigella made egg-nog ice cream in her Simply Nigella Christmas special, Jack, you bleeping plagiarist.

Not an original thought in her head.

What is her obsession with bases? I don’t see any other cook or chef mention them in their recipes.

I’m flummoxed.

T.S. - Your art matters. It matters NOW, as it mattered THEN. No matter whom might say it matters not. It. Does. Matter. At times like this, I am reminded of these wise words. "When (one is) being hounded, bullied, etc, online, well meaning folks sometimes say ‘it’s just social media. It doesn’t matter’. But it does matter. Because you matter. And I matter. And kindness matters. And community matters. And choosing to use this platform for good, matters."

I read that as your arse matters

Do Mediterranean Arses matter?

 

[Puddy Muddle]

Am I going mad or did Jack once talk about getting vases made modelled on her arm?

Oh, I'd forgotten about this deliberately and forensically erased this from my brain. Now all I can think about is what scary squiggle might do with this idea.
ETA: Sorry, grunking. @Lava got there first!

Why does she always do this? Is she trying to shotgun ideas? I THOUGHT OF THAT BEFORE! GET OUT OF MY NICHE!
Ideas are literally nothing on their own and most of hers have been done anyway. Try google first, mate. If there's anything the internet has taught me it's that I'm nowhere near as witty and original as I once thought.

Oh my goodness this her muse- she stands like this doesn't she! And the blue denim too?!! Even th hair.... kinda

@Switchstreetz I’m so far behind but ‘hi mr putin’ has me in stitches

ETA just finished grunking, wasn’t actually far behind at all. Loving the theories on Jack’s Mediterranean butt dial

 

[Captainmouse]

Her inflated opinion of her own talents is pretty extraordinary isn’t it. No self-awareness at all. It’s like when she faffed around making kombucha for a couple of days and inexplicably thinks she’s come up with a whiskey kombucha that is so good it’s ready to be sold in Waitrose.
She is so deluded that she thinks her terrible stint on DKL made her into a TV presenter. Whereas what it actually did was show the world in no uncertain terms that she IS NOT AND NEVER WILL BE even a remotely competent presenter.
I wonder if anyone close to her has ever tried talking sense into her.

Bib Good luck with that! I am sure you’d be met with

A 90% vegan that doesn't need vegetables. How does that work then, Jack?

I know she was trying to make a joke, but as usual, it wasn't funny.

You are so right, a quick Google and I've come up with a lovely French toast icecream recipe by ofbatteranddough, amongst many others. It looks a lot nicer than any recipe Jack has come up with.

Whenever she creates anything edible it has been done before, and better.
When she comes up with something unique, there's a reason that it has not been done before, it doesn't work.

She is trying to be a poor man's Heston, but ends up a Mrs Cropley from Vicar of Dibley.

Recipe? ANY recipe you can find? Yeah, completed ‘em, mate.
