There are too many parallel threads of chaos right nowView attachment 395997
Interesting!
I was properly diagnosed as an adult. It took SO long and was actually a real struggle to be taken seriously, for SO long.Quelle surprise she's pulling out the ADHD excuse again. She mentioned it on the podcast actually because of course she fucking did. Said she was diagnosed with SEVERE adult ADHD which is now treated with medication when she remembers to take it. Maybe I'm being stupid but since she can apparently set an alarm to remind her to eat, could she not just set a daily alarm to take her tablets?
Wait, what am I thinking? That would be A SENSIBLE SOLUTION. Give me strength.
Unfortunately IThe recipe for (bon)(f)ire soup
300g carrots
750ml veg stock
50g ginger
2tbsp Tom puree
Yum, orange coloured gingery slop.
The rabbit is called Dash. There are few photos because going out to the cold dark garage is too much effort.Going back a bit but was just wondering - why don't we ever see the rabbit?? She's always going on about floofs/cattos/doggos etc but we never, ever see photos posted of it. Seems odd as she's always posting photos of Cooper. What is it even called?

I'm actually really annoyed about the book thing. A cookery book is supposed to have a theme of sorts which defines the recipes. Like tin can cook was bad but it stuck to the idea of tins (sort of, one recipe involved rinsing beans and making a new sauce for them which I'm now suspicious was repackaged from a completely unrelated to tins recipe).
But if she's digging up faded old recipe cards to put in this book then there has been no idea the book germinated around, no testing or tweaking of recipes to fit the idea, its just a churned out contract fulfiller thrown together out of whatever the fuck she found lying around.
These new recipes sound just as unappealing as her older ones. I finished watching Bling Empire today, I bloody loved it for all its ridiculousness, especially Anna.Green rice with brown lentils sounds particularly, brown.
30g of spinach. Nice portioning there. It isn’t like spinach retains it’s volume when cooked or anything.
I am bored with commenting on her portion sizes.
Back to Bling Empire (please don’t judge, the ironing pile is growing again).

I made carrot soup for tea (with onions, lentils, cumin, chilli and milk).Unfortunately I
A) used my carrots today
B) don’t have any fresh ginger (I presume she means fresh, but she really should specify in the recipe otherwise BAD things will happen)
C) can’t be arsed ( too busyironingwatching Bling Empire)
D) don’t want to waste tomato purée on a shit soup
otherwise I would attempt it.
Trust me, don’t. It’s shit. Go for east by meera sodha or bosh or anything but that pile o crap.But not too long before its 99p on Kindle. Tin Can Cook published May 2019. Was available for some time recently at that price. Her Year in 120 recipes currently for sale . Should Vegan-ish appear at that price, I'll bite.
I sidled up to it on a bookshelf once and was not impressed, But still, 99p and its mine. Will look out for books by Meera Sodha.Trust me, don’t. It’s shit. Go for east by meera sodha or bosh or anything but that pile o crap.
Attempting to get a diagnosis some way or another myself at the moment, after a very frustrating and ultimately failed attempt a few years ago (the local mental health provisions are bordering on offensive). The way Jack treats ADHD as some sort of adorable frivolous issue really does my head in, I barely feel like an adult some days. It's reassuring to see people DO eventually get help as an adult though.I was properly diagnosed as an adult. It took SO long and was actually a real struggle to be taken seriously, for SO long.
You don't just 'forget' to take a medication that has been a battle to get prescribed.
Fuck her.
It's so bad, you can't even get it on the Bay.But not too long before its 99p on Kindle. Tin Can Cook published May 2019. Was available for some time recently at that price. Her Year in 120 recipes currently for sale . Should Vegan-ish appear at that price, I'll bite.
Fyre soup. Disappointing in every way.I made carrot soup for tea (with onions, lentils, cumin, chilli and milk).
I think she’s spent more time thinking of the name than that non- recipe.
Now I feel guilty for making it out to be a guilty pleasure.Bling Empire? Completed it last week, mate. Not sure why it’s such a “guilty pleasure” I love that style of scripted reality!
That and the vegan uprising...
