Cream cheese in a chicken casserole? I'm a vegan myself but the ways of the carnivore are not totally unknown to me - do people put cream cheese in a chicken casserole? Sounds kind of gloopy.
Gousto recipes quite often have cream cheese in their “creamy chicken” dishes, I presume because it’s simpler (and uses fewer pans) than having to make a béchamel. Given Jack’s seemingly unending struggle to make an adequate béchamel I suspect she’s taking the technique on board.

I’m baffled by this non-alcoholic wine in cooking thing - just don’t use it? Use stock instead. My mum doesn’t drink as she’s never liked the taste and until I was a grown up cooking for myself I never had wine in food and it wasn’t hugely missed tbh. My friend is Sikh and observant to no alcohol and he just doesn’t use a recipe if it calls for wine or stout or whatever as there are plenty of recipes which are perfectly adequate to use a different liquid? It’s bizarre. It’s almost like it’s a chance to assert that she’s still on the wagon. Which - if last time is anything to go by - suggests the mamapapa may protest too much.

If subsidised bars in Parliament cause rulebreaking lockdown garden parties, how come the Labour, Lib Dem, SNP, Plaid Cymru* Green and DUP MPs didn’t also have rulebreaking parties. Fuck off politics 6th form Jack.

*Apologies to any Welsh fraus, IDK if Plaid have an MP in Parliament, but I didn’t want to leave them out

Anyone get the impression that, like the clothes dyeing and the Depopping… this kitchen reorganisation “project” is just another pointless exercise in epic procrastination and Twitter engagement?

Do your taxes, Jack.

Could it be things like people moving out (she left!) or in (date went very well)
Yep - that could very much be the case. It could be 2 named tenants, one leaves and so a new one is drawn up in a single name. Could also be the same if a guarantor no longer wishes to stand for the tenant..... perhaps an ex, who no longer wishes to associate with a tenant who is a liability.... for example......

Wtf surely the shelves are shit because they are floating shelves designed for like one photo frame and a plant and Jack’s got the whole of Southend’s charity shop archive on there.

Politics Jack can get in the bin.

Is she going to rock up at the polling station a la Grenfell, with her "decades of experience" and demand to be given reporting privileges because she wrote a few columns for the Southend Echo a decade ago and was planning to stand in an election for all of five minutes?

I love the way wilko specifically ask people to share their photos and yet whenever Jack does and tags them into it (which is OFTEN), they just studiously ignore her.

no need to justify the cost of ANYTHING in your house. you don't go on the beg for money for nothing; i'm sure if you're liable to pay tax then you do, and as such, the value of your coffee maker is of no business or concern of anyone on here.
Thanks, I know. But I feel more than a little hypocritical having such an extravagance and calling Jack out for wasting money. Though you are right, I may be on a pension, but do still pay tax on my income. I also pay full rent, as my works pension takes me just over the amount where I can claim HB.

I won't complain though, I'm lucky that my income is such that I can just about afford it. I don't have much disposable income, and most people would say I was poor.

What really gets to me though, is Jack intimating she is still poor (without actually saying so explicitly) and accepting money off strangers for doing nothing. She is actually obtaining money by deception.

Jack counts every moment she is awake as 'work'. Some when she's asleep too.
Last year was 'no spend', this year is clearly 'no work'.

There seemingly was no part time, low paid job, nor nutrition course, nor new book, nor any other opportunity to come her way.

I doubt there was a date night, I doubt SB comes round much (100% supervised access methinks), I doubt she has any real friends left at this point.

You'd feel bad for the lass if you weren't aware she is a product of her own making.

My draining board (well my landlords draining board as I RENT) is on the left and in the 7 years I’ve been here I’ve never considered that being wrong? I didn’t know that was a thing people even thought about!

Jack can't get out of the rental agreement for at least another year? What sort of rental agreement has she signed? It must be a 5 year one. I have never heard of such a thing.
Its the strangest rental set up I’ve ever heard. Hasn’t she previously intimated that she pays rent by the day / week?

I just love how out of *everything* she's mithered about today, draining boards have had the greatest impact here!

we're such an evil cabal, losing her work, calling CPS and the great draining board debate of 2022
