She never had that book. Only saying she gave it away in case someone asks what her favourite cake from it is

Ha ! The little chopped up potatoes that pop up now and again. The ones in the Supermarket. The Greek food shop bought in Edinburgh display . I can’t be doing with someone who can’t make a Yorkshire pudding. Very hot fat with cold mix it can’t go wrong.
Grunkaing, and entirely OT, but since moving back here, I can no longer make Yorkies. I follow the exact same method as always, and am met with sad little disasters 😥

I've got a few pages to grunk but just wanted to say her cake looks tit. Literally - the fondant decorations (which she clearly didn't make) are cute, but everything brown on there resembles compacted turds.

That cake must have cost a week's shopping budget if those are KitKats too!

(Fair play she kept herself occupied all evening actually doing something, regardless of ability, but, has she just ignored the gang she's got round for dinner to do so, or is it all bullshit, Jack, and there's no one there? Off to the folks place for Sunday Service and Roast lunch, and maybe the cake is your offering, perhaps?)

The paternal side grandparents, and great grandparents both had B&Bs. It's bloody hard work Jack. My grandad would come in off a night shift and start helping with the breakfasts. Then there's keeping up with all the rooms and making sure everything is spot on. A lot harder nowadays too I'd imagine, people have higher standards than back in the day (grandparents sold up in the mid 80s) Oh, they weren't exploiting homeless people for their labour either, so maybe that's why it was such hard work!

How has she ruined chocolate cake? HOW?

Also, all that for her in-laws of what, 3 minutes? It's so embarrassingly try-hard. My MIL (God rest her), even in her last weeks, would have looked me dead in the eye and told me to stop brown-nosing if I'd turned up with anything other than a Mr Kipling Battenburg. Some things are truths universally acknowledged, and a MIL's ability to see through bullshit is one of them.

My MIL would have pointed out the fingerprints left on that cake before you had your coat off, refuse to eat any of it and offer to buy you cooking lessons for your next birthday.

And you'd thank her, because she'd have been right.

I might make one of those hideous tea/lemonade combinations tomorrow, as an Easter chaos.

I really hope that this thread can return to gently mocking her tit food, rather than watching aghast as she instigates a pile on a pensioner or reels off her many, many excuses for dreadful online behaviour.

Off course this is all down to Jackie.
