The hours she’s spending on Microsoft Excel would be better spent working literally any job? She has 6 passive income streams & ad hoc high value work, she could spend the rest of her days doing anything and be raking it in?!

Exactly! She could easily choose to take the dividends (and based on her Cotswolds Cache she def does). But, no, her son must be fed carcinogenic gruel, in order to keep up appearances/boost the tip jar.

Cor, this has taken so long to read I have nothing of any value to add to this thread because you are all too funny and I fear apart from these three words in relation to macronutrients and recording them; my, fitness, pal.

She won't rest until she gets the AGA stove she is entitled to.

DON'T STICK STUFFING CRUMBS IN YOUR STEW. Tattlers, I made this mistake when I was still sucked in with JM's bullshit a couple of years ago.

It turned the meal into a soggy, congealed mess. I of course blamed myself as I still wasn't massively confident with cooking at this point.

I expect she makes more in Patreon donations alone than a monthly salary on the minimum wage! Ugh she does my head in.

*Scampers away*

I feel really weird about her sneaking foods into his tea. He’s not a toddler, he is allowed to not like things. It may just be me being weird but it feels a bit violate-y. Plus the parents of his friends could tell him. Ignore me!

Couldn't help myself with the ss! I just want Marmite or Alan to photoshop Jackie with some hen legs in traaaazers

Note to Jack: in order to count as one of your five a day, a portion generally has to be 80g. That Swiss chard is 10g max. Then you’re sharing that between two people.

Just a thought: if she’s really avoiding the meat, wouldn’t she have had to cook it in two pots? Or else painstakingly go through the slop, fishing bits of bollock out? Or is she just lying again?

So the books...y’know, the shit that’s meant to pay her bills...from my memory we are meant to have in the pipeline:
1. Book which was commissioned but she changed the planned one to one which would celebrate POC and put them front and foremost
2. One due NOW which is about politics and crowdsourced all the info from Twatter
3. One due in future which is about food ethics (hide the bollockages)
4. One a huge budget cookbook bible.

bloody hell, it’s a good job she works 22 hours a day!!

Doesnt She ever want to enjoy herself. Even poor people have fun. I grew up poor and I am sure it was no picnic for my mum, but I don't remember being miserable about it. We made the best of it. We baked our treats rather then bought them etc.

I don't know why she makes it sound miserable all the time. It's no fun being skint but you make the best of what you have whilst you try to improve your situation.

SB is wolfing (not hoofing) his dinner down. While she tweets.
FFS. Times like these I'm glad I can't see the Tweets.
First off, just put the fucking phone down. Your kid has been at school all day. Sit at the table/on the couch together and eat your tea. Stop tweeting and speak to your child whilst you eat. Not only neglectful but down right bloody rude.

Secondly, stop with the forcing shitty food on the poor kid and gloating that he begs for more. The 'gorging' words she uses to describe the poor little thing make me shudder. Hoofing, wolfing, shovelling. You make him sound like starving animal. If you gave him a snack after school like all good parents do then he wouldn't be so hungry.

I know small kids do gobble up food but she really triggers me for how my Narc Mother treated me. Jack should know when to feed her kid and how much to feed him. Not feed him THAT slop and gloat (and broadcast) how much he LOVES it. Although I can't see it I know she's going to mention that he BEGGED for more.
