Is that ever one of Jack’s criteria?
No, they are not! Please don't start eating daffs come spring.
This is no joke, just a PSA. Thankyou.
BOOM! Haha. I was just reminded of my mum telling my friend and I not to eat Oleander tree flowers in our backyard. We were 26 at the time.
Also dangerous to cattos (and particularly mini cattos).
Oh God, that reminds me of my best friend's Dad's favourite joke when we were little.
'Did you hear what happened to Tony? Went out for an Indian last week, thought the onion bhajis tasted a bit odd, turned out the restaurant had run out of onions and used daffodil bulbs instead. Poor sod's in hospital.'
'Oh no, that's awful, how's he doing now?'
'Well, he's a bit green, but he'll be coming out in the spring.'
Very not edible. A distant cousin nevertheless. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-31176748
Extra bonus dog piss flavour!
Trifley D is sharing trifles again this morning…. I wonder if she knows about her award!
I really did think for more than a moment that this was straight from our comedy gold Frauen's pen.
@HotesTilaire , I could not agree more that it is not a young person's task to look after an adult. Nobody seems to notice...and Jack in her reply has become an utter parody of herself. It is so unbelievable!

And note the phrasing, as always slippery. “..forgot to pay”, not ”can’t” or “couldn’t”. She can easily afford it all but twists reality to rattle the tin.
I’m doing slow cooker porridge lads, anyone want some? There’s no apples in it.
I hope you’ve remembered the cod roe.
Yeah but the rest of it’s 90% vegan
@Switchstreetz What a magnificent gunk this morning. It has taken me all morning to read the awards and all the fantastic comments. I have very little to add that hasn't already been said, but each and every one is right, it was amazing this year. I have been laughing all morning. I was sensible enough to have my coffee and cereal first, I just knew that I would be hooting and fizzing along and didn't want another coffee out the nose incident.
Bravo.
Bravo.

Guys I’m watching Saturday kitchen and Mom has just added an inexplicable egg to a Brussel sprout stir fry.
Has she been possessed by Jack?

My booster gave me a fever and funny dreams last night.
Dreamt Jack got a gig with Magnum and came up with ‘pear and meat’ Magnums. Or was it a premonition??
I’m going to look At this image once an hour until I feel better…

Just watching SKL and so far (in my mind anyway) it's been a veritable burnfest towards Catcus TVs lockdown saviour. So far we've had;
1. Mentionitis of that man.
2. Scoffing at double denim.
3. Stanley Tucci and his food heaven, Ribollita.
4. Obligatory Mom slinky, midnight kitchen VT.
5. Sir Matt of the Forearms teasing Angela Hartnett about her catchy recipe title.
It all seems like a feverish, fugue dream but perhaps they all caught up with the sloppies before filming and are giddy with the joy of it all
ETA. Snapsies @Geetbo
ETA ETA. 6. Apparently, bean 'liquor' is vitally important

@Switchstreetz you have surpassed yourself! That was an amazing read, loved all the little mentions of side cast people (lol Maxrigger, you couldn't sit with us 
). Brilliant showcase of canal humour
