Small mercies re the ASDA cake I suppose. Touch wood the McFlurry machine isn’t broken ey x
It was quite regular for us to have to use the dining room and the kitchen for Sunday dinners, with a “childrens table” in the lounge. No fuss, just family together!Would like to point out, as a genuine Irish frau, that we can and do routinely feed 80 people with about as much hoo ha as making beans on toast for one
Lads, @kachoochoo @FlowerOfTheEast fear not! I've still got half a mint Viennetta in the freezer so I'll portion it up, pop them into a couple of sequined, single-use jazzy envelopes and wing them over to you both right ruddy now. Enjoy!Babe, same. Only remembered once I was halfway home from the supermarket.
No it wasn’t, didn’t happen, full of shit, be quiet.IRL- your family didn’t know how good they have it, OH’s are going back for more

Mash Direct do a carrot and parsnip version (can't get it round here any more). I lovingly referred to it as Carrot Smoosh!I will never eat anything described as a 'smoosh'. It's disrespectful of my body and my soul.
I am absolutely convinced that roasties were LJC's favourite part of a roast and when the Xmas present wasn't up to scratch that was her "punishment"... obviously sheer speculation m'ludCan do a five courser for the OH fam but couldn’t even do some roasties for Xmas dinner with SB and the ‘bubble buddy’
My Mum was a proper Irish Mammy and there was 6 in my family, cooking for 10 was a regular thing, usually involving an oven full of sausages and the chip pan!Smoosh?!I hate it when she tries to be cute or quirky!
I have an Irish mammy who used to do Boxing Day every year for my dad’s side of the family. It wasn’t the chaotic scene that Jack describes!
I honestly can't understand why Jack keeps returning to this cooking shtick, especially given all the emphasis recently on how the original dream was to be a political pundit? Because there is zero enjoyment or skill to share, just performative martyrdom. Cooking is my happy place, I wish Jack would fuck right off out of it, can't she just go and compare exercise books with Andrew Marr? (Am also devastated that Nigella has just handed out an endorsement to Janey Godley, if anyone else needs soothing and comforting today I recommend Trifle Defender's awesome lunch pictures, am in awe of her meticulous fennel chopping)She just hates cooking, I think, that’s why it’s stressful for her. Also, drama.
Our dinner tonight is
Roast pork (including crackling)
Roast potatoes
Stuffing
Buttered cabbage
Honey and thyme glazed carrots
Apple sauce
Gravy
I’ve also pottered in the garden, done a load of washing, discussed upcoming exams with my daughter, helped OH (sorry) plank some wood, had my parents pop in for coffee and titted about on the internet.
The cooking part of the day was nice and restful, because it’s all repeated and familiar processes and quite a mindful thing. Not a stress. She just hates it and isn’t good at it and makes everything a huge performance instead of getting on with it.
As long as you never ask me to eat 'smoosh' we shall get along famously.I'm wondering what will be rinsed and re-fried, with added fridge funk, for breakfast tomorrow. Making me feel a bit queasy.

Are we breaking up...waaahh!
I’m sorry Janey has been very ill but she’s a horrible troll on twitter and she has major issues and of course Jack loves herI honestly can't understand why Jack keeps returning to this cooking shtick, especially given all the emphasis recently on how the original dream was to be a political pundit?

I was going to say poor bloody dogsHun, they’ve taken doggy bags so they can bin them and don’t have to actually finish the meal.
Best thing to do with her books to be fairJust how does someone shoot a book?
Sorry if it's been asked, I've not caught up yet and I'm baffled.Send enlightenmentos
