I found a hypocrite similar to the people who follow her. I know a person who spent at least 100 pounds plus travel to go to the HP studios, yet apparently heckled JK rowling as they dont stand with terfs, its ok to give her £££ though. These are the sort of people who i think claim to be her patreons.
duck me… I get why everyone was mithering on how she wears her Doc Martins a few threads back!
The red laces ( thanks to the twnderstem who explained the meaning - sorry I’ve forgotten who it was! ) the jeans rolled OVER the top…
Aunty Pat decided to go to the fish market to get some choice fillets for her dinner party. She thought she would dress appropriately because a twin set or Tory Black Dress were only acceptable for the black tie dinners at the golf club or WI.
Aunty Pat wasn’t sure how fishermen dressed, so she got a children’s book about it and copied that exact look. Aunty Pat was dismayed after her trip to the Quay however, when a good friend pointed out to her that due to her boots, she looked like a homeless racist clown.
ETA - I live in a fishing town
and my ( abusive ) ex was a fisherman, and can confirm I’ve never seen a fisherman wear anything remotely like that ( or woman as we have lots of those now! I went to sea for a week with my ex about 15 years ago. At the time I was only 1 of 3 women who’d ever been allowed on the boat as women on boats was seen as bad luck. That’s changed now thankfully, so we have about 5 women who go to sea full time. I love it for our town! )
Anyone triangulated the ear muffs and Ewok mittens? They're either really cheapo or really spenny, and knowing Jack it's probsbly the latter.

Nope, nope, nope. Beetroot skin is thin. If you roast beetroot in foil the skin slides right off, leaving the beetroot cooked and whole, more of a degloving, if you will (you won’t, who would). I’ve not roasted it skin-on without foil but it would not make any kind of shell anything like a spud. It would just LEAVE.Hold up. The ”recipe” says…

Scrape out the flesh, mash and return to ‘it’s earthy shell’ (btw duck off Guset, you’re not Mom and never will be)
Anyway, the picture looks suspiciously (i.e. definitely) like a beetroot that’s just been quartered in the bowl and the topping added? So which is it?

This. The pink she would have seen had she smooshed tzatziki with beetroot is something she would have done an almighty word vom over. Thank heavens she never saw it.

Maybe I am reading to much into the red laces but as a lifetime far lefty who was well into the punk scene in my youth I wouldn't be caught dead in red laces, due to the connotations.
Can you bring this back in about twenty pages for a youknowwhat please?

PAAAAAAARP!
Sounds like my mother's story about pinching beetroot slices from the jar as a child and then getting the fright of her life... I mean she's still telling the story 70 odd years laterOver sharing but beetroot has a profound effect on my waterworks and digestion.

I really want to know what happened in 1998 that was funnier than these threads, as I don't believe it's possible.
I don't like beetroot, and I really don't think adding "cheese, beans or chilli" would tempt me. Her idea of flavour combining is just - terrible.Ahahaha she's wearing half a polar bear in Sep in the southeast. Silly bint.
Whenever I see the sleeping rough post I think about how everything guest describes is freezing and/ or battered. I'm sure there's been a battered jacket for example but when I went looking for it I found THIS. I've never seen this before. Omg. It's from the holier than thou "I'm the most moral vegan" phase. Complete also with "scrawled" "promptly" and "resplendent" and also not really being a recipe but more of a serving suggestion

ETA oh god there's more. I hadn't read the actual recipe. Two pages to say "bake a beetroot as if it was a potato".
The all purpose " put it in soupsstewscurries", lots of popping things gently and carefully, bottled lemon. Also lol at "beertroot" #professionalwriter

And all that about adding tzatziki, or cottage cheese, or white beans - those things are not equivalents! Except for all being white.
Y'know, I have no issue with how Jack looks or what she wears. Though am as ever astonished by her love of sharing photos of herself with the world.
My aneurysm is that her whole thing was supposed to be helping people with cooking, and she is so so bad and lazy at it. And she's stolen the voice of people who truly struggle in poverty.

OMG yes! I thought I had kidney disease, then eventually remembered I'd had some Tyrell's Vegetable Crisps (fancy!) a few days earlier, and the purple ones are beetroot. Instant cure!Over sharing but beetroot has a profound effect on my waterworks and digestion.

Yeah, even if you could make beetroot mash and stuff it into beetroot jackets, imagine sticking some white beans on it and eating it. Just unpleasant, a waste of two perfectly decent ingredients. And some poor sod will be trying that then thinking they’re at fault.
All white foods are interchangeable. You could also add Milky Bar, panna cotta or Mr Whippy.
I can't eat beetroot - I also love it but less than two very loud rumbly hours later, it reappears in a noisy gloopy pink fanfare. And bothers me similarly for the rest of the day. I appear to be intolerant.Over sharing but beetroot has a profound effect on my waterworks and digestion.

I loath beetroot, it’s much praised “earthy sweetness” is far too close to the smell of decomposing vegetable matter for my liking. However, I did eat a large slice of chocolate cake made with beetroot at a summer fair once, the chocolate having covered the beetrootiness. Afterwards, I was, as the young people say, shook as I was previously unaware of this phenomenon.Over sharing but beetroot has a profound effect on my waterworks and digestion.

As regular readers will know, I never talk about my private life because, well, it's private (that alright with you, pal? Are we quite done here?).
Irregardless, I always forget about the beetroot in those posh vegetable chip bags (alright if I eat those, pal? Can't poor people have nice things? My God, this is exhausting!) turning your poo bright red.
Send moist wipe-os.
