Jack Monroe #193 Mama, pass the UNICEF statistics and the Hansards!

So, they are the aparthotel walls? But the other day there was the Room of Requirement (John Lewis scrapyard) cleanup, which must have been home. Home? Away? I’m utterly confused.

Schrodinger’s Jack.

If she’s back at the aparthotel, I guess she got a weekend pass to go home?

Enid Blyton has been dead for half a century, get over it.

I read that in the voice of Siobhan Sharpe from Twenty Twelve/W1A.


The guitar‘s making me nervous. It’s like she read the suggestion here about “dropping bars“, and her mind went “Ed Sheeran”.

 

[Carmina-Piranha]

Perhaps she's taken up with a busker?!

I read that as buster...and thought of this...oops, wrong!

I bet she can do Kumbayah (sp?) from her church youth group days...

That's her busker name. Buster the busker. The little scamp who could.

I’m just perplexed to see them referred to as “charity shops”. I thought in Southend parlance they were known as “thrift stores”

Looking forward to a David Brent-esque video of her playing that guitar (though David Brent could actually play, haah)

The cabal eagerly waiting for Our Jackie to drop those sick riffs....

So I googled 'cassoulet' and Jack's is the only one that looks exactly like an infected wound.

Not sure I can be here for Kumbayah Jack… it’s the Jack that broke me

I always thought the point of cassoulet was fat. Lovely, delicious, fat. Just remembered her recommending having it in a sandwich, or COLD with pasta and I

Felicity Cloake's piece on cassoulet is one of her best, I think: https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/wordofmouth/2014/mar/19/how-to-cook-perfect-cassoulet

(What a difference between two food writers. You can really see that one of them loves food, and the other...does not.)

Her column is one of the best bits of the Guardian

lol - "let's be honest, cassoulet and tomato season are unlikely to ever coincide".

This does remind me that my mum once got quite annoyed with me and my dad describing anything even vaguely similar (from soup to any type of stew) as "cassoulet", because it sounds pretentious.

it reminded me of the aftermath of a particularly bad sinus infection i had a few years ago.

Nah, holly, that’s texture

I’m convinced that the everlasting perennial chard that allegedly grows in the crappy bungalow garden is actually dock leaves…

Babe same. Unless Our Jackie packed a slow cooker in with the rest of her luggage..

I didn’t know Jack played guitar

I'm sure she plays it with the same level of skillz as the piano.

Please let there be a video of her playing

I LOVE the pic of her on the piano with her arm across it and her head down, strong David Brent vibes
