I really do not understand baking a cake or bread in a slow cooker. Cakes take 25-30 mins in an oven and you can make focaccia or soda bread in less time than it takes in a slow cooker. When I see bread or cake slow cooker recipes I think of that well-known slow cooker Facebook group which produces some err... interesting recipes shall we say.
I am just picturing Jack, strong woman, lifting those massive stone balls onto plinths in the Colosseum now.
She is not doing international orders because she doesn't want to overwhelm the Post Office staff? What another pointless statement. I'm sure any PO fraus can enlighten me if I am incorrect, but there is no-to-very-little more work involved in processing an international order than there is a domestic order? Everything needs to be weighed and a label printed off regardless of where it's going.
My local Post Office is demanding customs forms for all destinations now, in preparation for the B-word, so what I suspect she means is 'I can't be arsed putting customs forms on everything and filling them all out.'

Nothing gets Jack off twitter and down to 'work' quite like people asking something of her.
Why is the admin assistant still furloughed when there is clear evidence that there's work that needs to be done to keep the 'business' running. Isn't furlough for when you cannot do your work from home or where there is no work for you to do due to covid lockdown/restrictions?
Gotta get those sixteen hours in, Jack. Chop chop!
Nah, she still can't be arsed actually doing anything.
Stick em in an envelope addressed to her agent/publisher, marked unwanted, and if you're really feeling mean don’t put any postage on it
can you imagine if everybody did this, they could be buried
That looks like it tastes of sad.
The dry, tasteless scone (smartprice 6 for 50p) with a thin layer of watery sugary gloop & some squirty cream to inject some fun into the proceedings.
It's giving me the eye wets
But why is it a headache? Don't you just do the same thing? Go to PO, say where you are posting to and stick the label on? I know you have to write on parcel what is inside for some countries, but hardly a headache.
Was this ever mentioned again? Would have been handy for lockdown Christmas shopping...
I’m taking her meaning that Twitter is the coliseum, she is like Joaquin Phoenix in Gladiator, her followers are the peasants in the crowd and Tattle is Russell Crowe.
She's confusing working for 16 hours a day with just being awake 16 hours a day.The lies continue
If you post stuff commercially (i.e. fulfilling an order) you have to fill in custom forms (for some countries, probably lots soon due to Brexit). I can understand that as a writer you don't want to deal with this. There's a little known work around though, specifically for authors. It's called a book shop (online versions are available).
I think she genuinely counts colouring in and writing lists of her own recipes “work”
You are , of course, right - I note the Amazon wish list option has been touted as a handy alternative since I typed.
Even she might organise a Yodel collection from her humble crappy bungalow if it is financially worth her while, mind. And someone, somewhere must have an absolute mountain of Good Food for Bad Days because I have never seen it for sale (not that I am doing much book browsing this year, but the supermarkets certainly aren’t stocking it).
Anyway - love you all (except you, Jack - I hate you). Work beckons. See you on the other side (for real!)
Even then, she'd be overstating it #dinosaurnaps
We must get that information to the next person she looks like setting her flying monkeys on -"don't panic just ask her to help a charity or something and she'll vanish".
