Popcorn. I'm going with anchovy and banana for Jack's choice.We are currently equal to the 164 hours if including the replies. 188 hours since last week.
We are in unprecedented times! What snack choice will bring her out of this hiatus?
OopsThat's not a bot, it's a real account laughing about peach curry.
Jack's thoroughly tested recipes for new books served two purposes according to her.It's such an unusual promotional campaign, keeping the author quiet. I wonder how long the silent strop will last. Will this new book of delicious, thoroughly tested recipes be published with not a peep from Jack?

Heck. I am le tired. I thought that said "2 cups of satans" and for a minute I thought she was actually being innovative."JACK Monroe's Christmsas Pud"
2 cups of sultans..
Agree, as ever, this is all a big performance by her and unlikely to be true in reality. Most families handle the running of a household and chores miraculously without charts, cards in jars or social media. Most parents ask their kids to help with the dishes, pick up their towels, tidy away their shoes, etc. It's just part of life.Chores - sometimes Jack says she is /was a mummy blogger. Sometimes mummy bloggers do publish lists of chores their kids do. Often they are full of comments saying “they’re only little once”, and therefore make great content if you are only a mummy blogger for the attention/clout. I haven’t looked at the comments on Jack’s post so I don’t know if the algorithm took her into people’s timelines with her chores list.

I hate to defend her but I think she was just ripping off ideas online where you make a whole list of tasks and your child(ren) can pick the ones they want to earn extra tablet time/pocket money and doing it in her own performative way. I went down an American blog rabbit hole at one point and it was all the rage (and we know how Jack loves to be yeehaw Jack)- the idea wasn’t that they’d do all the list but that they’d pick and it gave them autonomy. I don’t think she was claiming she expected SB to do them all from the caption she wrote.Perhaps my teens do more than average, but I’m a one parent house hold, with disabilities, I work/study full time and have a commute that takes around 2.5-3 hours per day. The chores are by no means done every day (we’re all ND, 7YO may be the only one of us that isn’t), we do live in a fair bit of WHERES MY KEYS (thank fuck for Tiles) type chaos, and it’s far from a show home as I frankly can’t be fucked to spend my precious down time scrubbing/tidying.
But their friends comment on how it’s “got, like, warm vibes and you’re so chill” (I am anything but chill under the surface) which I think means I’m happy to sit knitting with cartoons on whilst 7YO has LEGO everywhere (floor is a regular death trap for it), teens are throwing sausages and hash browns in the oven for breakfast, there’s a Mount Doom of laundry to put away, rather than following the teens around the kitchen putting stuff away after they’ve used it/frantically throwing LEGO in the boxes whilst it’s still being played with etc.
I just cant be arsed. Between ADHD, post viral fatigue and the side effects of my CPTSD meds, I cannot.
Someone I know has 3 teens and a very smol child. She doesn’t lift a finger to cook or clean, only does bath/bed with the very smol child once per week, because the teens are all scheduled to do all of it.
She works very part time from home and is often found in the shed, crafting whatever she’s trying that week.
I didn’t realise how bad it is was (in terms of it being ran like a house share with 4 adults where one of them does fuck all) until I spent a week there when I visited having not seen her for years.
I’ve had very little contact with her since then, I found it really upsetting. It was truly bizarre watching 3 teenagers tag team a toddler as if they were the parents.
Jacks list for SB gave me a migraine. I can’t imagine how much time it would take to police an 8YO doing all that. Quicker to do it yourself, no?

Go well, dear tenderstems.
I though this was amusing while looking for that recipeThe chores list is horrid and the comments about SB’s toilet habits are demeaning in the extreme. And also a bit rich coming from someone who appears to have an aversion to soap.
Also, who has the time to write out all this shit and make notes and then document those written notes with photos and loads more writing? It’s all drivel but she is writes A LOT. She has handwritten stuff absolutely everywhere, she can’t even help herself writing all over her kitchen walls. And she blogs and keeps spreadsheets and is (usually) clogging up social media feeds with great wadges of text. She never uses one word when 200 will do. I find myself wondering whether this compulsion to write is indicative of something.
