Jack Monroe #389 She's like Boris but with worse hair

[FlirtyThirty]

Is it a full moon again? Jack sincerely (ha!) apologising is very strange...was this the person who mentioned the L word at her?

Posh pickled eggs. Posh pickled eggs.

Nope I can't

I thought it said fish pickled eggs

I don't know where this is going to land, as I'm about 20 pages back (just reading the notebook recipes from hell), but -

Surely this is performance art!

It’s the Laurie pics from a while ago. She said she didn’t care about the number because it was a work phone. She knows it’s there. I think she was hoping to record abuse, cops in, the whole circus tbh. Failed miserably, nobody cared

She’s really hoping someone will text her and tell her she should have kept her legs shut.

 

[Hoopful]

I have a small freezer, send cashos and don't you dare ask any bleeping questions my entire family is in the ICU

Each family member is SEPARATELY in the ICU

Are we even sure it's her number? I don't think the dog lives with her full time, so it seems reasonable that the number is the primary care-giver's phone - SB's dad's number?

While anyone can call themselves a nutritionist- it’s not a protected title, unlike dietitian - Lily actually does have quite relevant Qualifications .

Unlike Jack with her 4.5 GCSEs.

Honestly, why would anyone hire her to advise on diabetic diets is beyond me. One of my closest friends is a specialist diabetic paediatric dietician so this bullshit really, really makes me angry. It’s bleeping dangerous

Jack also refers to herself as a journalist and is referred to as a journalist which I find hugely offensive as someone adjacent to three journalists.

I think it could be Jacks number even if Content is staying with SBs dad. Remember SBs dad works full time whilst Jack just behaves strangely in a bungalow and has cashos sent to her by gullible people. If Content went missing and was found it would likely make more sense to drop her off at Jacks rather than potentially drag SBs dad away from work. It's risky but surely not even Jack could duck up a dog, if she was just minding her for a few hours.

I use an app that holds my recipes and keeps track of what I have in the freezer. I've also got a fairly good grasp of what's in the fridge and cupboards. Menu planning goes like so:

1. Open menu planning website and outlook diary. Check if there are any days when I'm out in the evening.
2. Use menu planning website to plan week's menus, being careful I'm not left with half a block of feta or something weird to carry over
3. open shopping list part of menu planning website, tick off the things I know I have plenty of.
4. grab phone, open menu planning app on phone, go to shopping list bit.
5. Take phone into kitchen, check the remaining bits on the list, delete the ones I have.
6. Go shopping with much smaller list

Grunking again but this sounds amazing!!

I'd forgive all the griftin' if she walked around Southend dressed as a can of spaghetti hoops, with that earnest expression on her face.

 

[Lazarus]

Oh my gosh, you can get big tubs of that yellow allioli. They only do the small tubs in Morrisons and it’s never in stock. I’m moving to whatever part of Spain this is.

I would give my life for that aioli. Does anyone recall there used to be an orange tub one too? I think it was chilli or paprika? It was so good.
the only place near me that sells this now is the big Home Bargain/BM Bargain and even at that it isn’t there all the time.

Oh LJC, the insectoid follower could genuinely end up ill with blind faith.

I mean, she's not wrong, albeit hyperbolic.

Or blind with Ill faith

 

[Lazarus]

Nobody mentioning this? (Apols if I’ve missed it)

 

[Edie Po]

Can I send Jack a cease and desist from one cooking and two trying to be a sarky twit on twitter..she's bleeping useless at both

 

[Tin Can Crook]

I can't speak for the rest of the canal but my brain automatically censors the word prune now as a protective mechanism.

 

[veronica71]

Do we think she’s so unnecessarily aggressive to everyone because she’s hungry?
