Why the duck is that top left photo worthy of a place in a book or as part of a campaign?

This is true. Where I like it’s a status thing to ogive crazy gifts. I taught 20 years in the UK and would sometimes get a card or Easter egg, nobody gave us stuff when it was tricky to pay the mortgage as I was working part time and both kids were in nursery. Mainly as parents and kids were broke too. Nowadays I get gifted stuff all the time. A parent from work bought me (and another staff member) an iPad, I often get wine, chocolate, and candles that cost more than the £20 sho
+earache on deadline day.Nearly a month. The Xmas covid and attempted long covid is the last malaise, unless we count the weird gland chin thing that occurred the other day when SB didn’t face tune her. Total lack of Jaccidents, I suspect BB is there
he gaslights me I type covid and he changes it to civic.
I would guess its a tea bread type thing for the Del Monte collab. Poss with prunes. I cannot figure out what kind of fruit she could get into photo 4.
Maybe the 3000 words is a tribute to Captain Tom.... she doesn’t seem to have mentioned him yet
Thats for an Express article.
I wondered. I think its some kind of take on her pear/mussel creation. Maybe the freezer fish is making an appearance.
And what is smeared on the bread? Lard????
Quarter of a Linda McCartney sausage gone rogue?
I thought it was a hazelnut. But you rub the skin off and toast them if you’re putting them in a salad surely?
Hahaha.
my favourite part of the Linda McCartney debacle was someone commenting to say the dumplings looked nice and I think theywere serious!
“I, like, Captain Sir Tom Moore, am military round the edges. I didn’t serve in Burma during World War Two, as a tattooed lesbian this would have been perniciously tantamount to treason, and anyway, the Recruiting Officer turned down my request to change my wardrobe saying “Good lord, pantaloons on a filly? Balderdash!”
I think, had he lived, Captain Sir Tom Moore (RIP, Viv) would have loved my maverick take on a Burmese Biryani, in which I substitute the rice for the shredded Lino from my kitchen floor and lasciviously combine it with the dark art of Mel Donte prune juice and a dead pigeon glove, found wounded on a paddy field in deepest, darkest Southend”
Hazelnut?
I've looked at all those photos in full on Twitter on a decent-sized computer monitor and I still don't know what the duck they are. Like the first one is quite obviously some sort of shrivelled bread with grease applied but what's in the second one? There's raw hazelnuts with skin on (definitely not a snail 
), spring onions and cress, are those potatoes and grapes? There's a single piece of caramelised something. Third picture it's a complete mystery what's under the pineapple. Could be some kind of cooking bacon monstrosity, sitting in a watery turmeric oil slick. Fourth picture looks like mixed nuts in Marmite on a mashed potato mountain à la Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
Less an amuse bouche, more like a confuse bouche.

apparently, the last pic is prune and treacle ice cream, covered in what looks like the chestnut/onion emoji I discovered yesterday

It is a hazelnut and yes, you just bung them in, untoasted, just like ONION and garlic that go straight into cold oil.
I thought one of the doorknobs from the #atticgifted unit in the kitchen had slipped in!
I thought it was meatloaf or pate?
I also have to say that ugly stick-in-the-food cutlery made it into the pic again. Where does she get the crap from? Yes, her drawer, I know.
Has she taken a picture of some toast?
