I just want to bung the full sized image too as there's a lot of.... uh.... detail.

(Read as: ABSOLUTELY SHITLOADS OF PILES OF CRAP FUCKIN EVERYWHERE)

I spy, with my little eye.... CHICKEN. EGGS. and PRUNES.
Looks very much as if she's trying to emulate Allegra's *topsy turvy kitchen?

*Am being kind.

But..but...the prunes didn't win the poll?

Are those rolls of paper the backdrops? If so why does she have so many?!?! No way do you need all those.

I am astounded she is bragging about recipe testing at this late stage. She is so far behind it's unbelievable. This should have been done months ago. I can't believe she was dicking around with trifles and slagging other people's recipes off at Christmas when she hadn't even tested these yet.

She shows how unprofessional she is without even realising it.

Messy kitchen
Too much going on at the same time
Fannying around on Twitter

Copper pans scattered all over, replaced with all the photo materials. Drawers on top of the cupboards. Arena flowers massive box unopened on the floor. I reckon she’s put a dog in the spare room.

Isn't recipe testing supposed to be undertaken by someone else?
Someone not familiar with the big slop energy.

Absolutely this. She should know that she is in danger of jeopardising future book deals and customer confidence in the finished product by scrap booking all of this slap dash, last minute chaos.

I think she does it because (1) obviously all SM content and likes are good in her book, even if might reflect badly on her and (2) she manipulates the truth so much day to day that she feels compelled to document everything in detail, as she is stuck in the habit of ‘backing up’ all of her outlandish claims.

I'm so confused. Why does she think this kitchen is something to be proud of? Something nice that she's "worked her tits off for"? And why does she think that adding that it was taken with a zoom lens would be something to be guilty or apologetic about? None of it makes sense. Plus, as you all say, the fact she's recipe testing several months after her original due date, and four days after her extended due date, is just laughable.

Does...does she not know her agent and publisher can see all this? How is she not dying of shame!? Recipe development and testing almost a week past deadline (which wasn't even the first deadline)...I can't even.

I think you might be on to something here. If she posts a video of herself gleefully being licked by a new puppo I'll actually scream.

This actually makes me feel much better about my perceptions of how cluttered my own kitchen is This is making me itch.

Did you not know that the harder you work, the more your kitchen elongates? The clutter multiplies too. I think Pythagoras explained it.

Worked her tits off > twatting about on Twitter, coat tailing others , throwing hissy fits and slagging off those she dislikes.

Weren’t the backdrop papers previously in a Cotswald dresser? Maybe the dressers have revolted and LEFT?
