Tumble dryer fluff! TUMBLE DRYER FLUFF? That’s me done
see you all got there before me
6 days before book due and she's still scrabbling around for (other people's) ideas to put in it?!
also, after reading that little thread, and in keeping with uncle "during the poverty" albert jack, it's made me go all
miles and miles of carpet tiles, TVs, deep freeze, david bowie LPs

You have all been so on fire today I'm surprised Jack hasn't pretended to be a firefighter again and tried to put you all out. This may not be the only corner of the internet for sass but it is the funniest, top tier sass I've ever come across.
Why? Just leave them in the tub since they are easier to store. Also use one tub at a time so they are fresher.
To be fair she is an expert at reusing other people's ideas in a book she gets paid for.
And why oh why is she committing to sending signed copies to people? Has she learned NOTHING?
It's the bleeping kickstarter chaos all over again!

Just had a flashback to some creepy photos of proud folks in jumpers they'd knit from their pet's fur!
It's definitely a thing.

The vegan applewood is amazing, actually nicer than normal applewood and melts to an almost liquid consistency.
I'm not vegan but have a lactose intolerant child and I fell in love with this cheese and use it quite a lot. Most vegan cheeses are pretty rank.
So, less than a week to deadline and she's STILL attempting to crowdsource content for her book. It's going to be 50% unused recipes from 2014 (which clearly speaks volumes as to their quality if they haven't managed to make it into books 1-6 in spite of her notorious "path of least effort" approach), 25% life hacks (including such gems as "Decant jars of things into another jar" and "Keep your washing up water hot with a baking tray, presumably while you spend an hour chasing dopamine hits on Twitter") and 25% tips she's taken from randomers and won't have had time to test. This is truly going to be one for the ages.

My ragdoll sheds stupid amounts of beautifully soft hair, I could easily knit a jumper.
Cooper is also a fluffball so will shed loads!
I have a really horrid feeling this has already been discussed by Jackalack on twitter with regards to Floofle’s hair.Just had a flashback to some creepy photos of proud folks in jumpers they'd knit from their pet's fur!
Can’t be sure it wasn’t a horrid dream.
We are all here for it though aren’t we?
Her upcoming book should include a reference to Twitter. She seems to have invested more time to that than "The Book"
Yes, absolutely x
(I'm already planning to take the day off work on release day)
Cheeky bleeping witch
Nothing else to add...

Surely to get tumble dryer fluff you’d need to own a tumble dryer and afford to run it, which is notoriously expensive, yet she has a go at recipe writers who don’t factor in the cost of tin openers? duck right off.
On the plus side I’d heard of Dr Rupy before Jack was on, and I must admit some of his stuff is a bit woo for me, but after watching his series I made one of his recipes tonight and it was nice.

The only use I found for hair, (from your hairbrush) is stuffing in old tights and hanging to deter deer, not a problem in the bungalow I would have thought.
Mortified!

She is so gross. Imagine the state of her house with all this shite piled around it. Just get rid of things you aren't going to use!
