Jack Monroe #203 Found a packet of pork mince

[Into_the_tunnel]

Most people's cooking improves over time, not necessarily Michelin standard or anything, but your skills and repertoire increase and your food gets better. Jack's has just got worse and worse!

Mrs Tunnel would disagree with you!

After gallantly working through a load of banana bread I made last week, she asked me (with a hug) if I could possibly put less bicarb in next time because it had a “slight aftertaste of soap”.


(Edit- I obviously just love soap)

Thread title nomination

I hereby formally rescind my previous thread title nomination.

Also a year ago today. To be fair to her, she didn't say which Spring the book would be out...

 

[DinosaurSenior]

"xoxo".... Ugh. Gosslop Girl

I love how to she thinks everyone who talks to her without fawning is a cabal member.

To be fair, if I'd been as tit on a TV programme as Jack was, if anyone asked me if I was going on it again I'd have assumed they were taking the piss.

 

[kachoochoo]

ha! the "say hello to the coven" thing just crossed my mind this morning! iirc, there was another occasion when she said something similar to someone who she suspected of being a cabal member (but wasn't) who then asked wtf she was talking about and she backed down sharpish

 

[ChickenPorridge]

It's been a long old break from TV all the same, hasn't it? A long old break from any work at all, actually

SB found a literal gym in a puddle and now the crappy bungalow is a Fitness First

Ah, they'll go lovely with the water rower and all the weights for bodybuilding.

If Jack goes all Joe Wicks; I'll piss myself laughing.

I wonder why she decided to post that at this time in the night? Could she be hoping to catch someone’s attention while they have their breakfast?

Hang on. If somebody wanted a donation for them why were they left out on the street? And if it was a neighbour why did she need her dad and brother to help get them home?

It just all seems a bit...unlikely?
Why would you put stuff out on a Sunday with BH Monday coming up - who did the kind neighbour think was going to remove these items? Why would you put your old stuff out on the street? I just don't get it.

 

[ChickenPorridge]

Another load of heavy, bulky gym equipment for the bungalow the amount of stuff she has rammed into that place gives me anxiety

 

[HotesTilaire]

Well that’s nice, Sb fancied a go on the gym equipment...I see Cack is using it

 

[onlysunshine]

Why would you put your old stuff out on the street? I just don't get it.

I can't speak for the donation thing (unless there was a sign on it or she actually asked the owner before just taking for once) but during lockdown it got quite common for my village to put stuff out that they were getting rid of, it was like shopping as you walked on your daily exercise!

Can I have some of that cake please @Into_the_tunnel - need to wash my mouth out for defending her

 

[HotesTilaire]

I second @onlysunshine its gotten very popular to fly tip old tit offer unwanted items to passers by.
What would have been lovely would be if a certain smol pixie who could afford to drop £300ish for new versions from Argos, had actually organised a charity to collect and sell them on. But no, the items will stay in the same well heeled post code for Fack to clutter up the RENTED bung-it-in-a-low.

Maybe she'll end up putting it all in the shed and turning that into the gym, since there hasn't been much TV production going on in there lately

Has she ever admitted to buying anything other than yellow sticker E. coli salad bangs?
