What? Just wash up. It's not hard. Whack on some music - she has enough fancy radios, I'm sure there's a kitchen one - get going. Fucking weirdo.

Just sitting here casually knocking back shots from my bottle of (fancy) olive oil because "fats are good for you"! Thanks Jack!!

Why do I want to keep my washing up water hotter? I fill the bowl, wash up, then it goes down the plughole. It isn't a longterm investment.
Baffling. As usual.
Oh, I know! Is it so you can keep making coffee with it?

I was eight weeks early and I can't say that's something that's ever come up in my life as a potential issue.

Edit: now staring at my hands (yes frauen, I too have hands ) very suspiciously.
I was 10.5 weeks perm; this isn’t an issue for me. Crap lungs and weird gut issues are though.

I don't understand why she's keeping and reusing all these milk bottles - GIVE THEM BACK. You can buy empty glass bottles/jars in bulk on eBay. It seems more wasteful to decant everything and discard the original container?

Her next thrifty tip is going to be to steal save all the cutlery you get given in restaurants - oh and crockery too! A quick wash with diluted washing up liquid and they'll be good as new! You can even label them so you remember where they're originally from (The Ivy, Wagamamas, Groucho etc)

Just add some dried and processed orange peels to the hot sink water, season well, and you have yourself a thrifty bath!

Yes, I'm so gobsmacked at her bare-faced jack-foolery, I just joined here myself. I am AMAZED how she has got away with it for so long, so many contradictions.. so little shame.

It was the FSM debacle that finally removed the cheap sausage meat from my eyes.

Erm... Hasn't she always just been bitter. She seems to hate that everyone else has it made it ...
She seemed to put aside her distain and hatred for high earners when she was engaged to a multimillionaire co owner of a restaurant chain.

Now you're talking! Could I...double up and just pop the dirty dishes in the bath whilst I'm having a soak in my bouquet garni bath salts?

Then reuse the water for a bouillabaisse?

Why is she bothering with this facade when her love of fish/eggs/fishy devilled eggs is widely known?!
I suspect someone from Linda McCartney has pleaded with her to at least look she's reducing her meat intake. This is one of many things that baffle me about Jack, how hard would it have been to at least pretend she was eating vegan for the month? She could have spent the last few weeks highlighting vegan products she's pretending to like and done a month of vegan only slop. Instead she's waiting for an entirely predictable response from vegans and then started blathering on about vegan cheese. I sometimes wonder if deep down she feels bad about the lies she's told and actually wants to fuck up so badly she's stopped but sometimes I just think she's a clown shoe.

Go one better and gently poach the fish for the bouillabaisse in the bath water too.
