She could have used her mother's cultural form of moonshine made from potatoes called poteen.
On a posting roll as I’ve finally caught up!
As I was perusing my Ocadolife magazine (fancy! But also free!), I came across the following — for all those tiring of the all bollock sausages all the time tedium (not you, @BollockSausage
), wondering when we will ever witness chickpea ephemera or its like again, I offer you this:
Ephemera in a carton, no draining or rinsing required. Man, what a time to be alive!

She is utterly incapable of saying sorry, I messed up. Jackie, dear heart, try it some time. It's what people want to hear when you've messed them about. Not your excuses.Found this in the comments under her 'ultimate lasagne' recipe.

Excuses, excuses.
It’s not just the lack of apology she blames you for being so unreasonable as to want what you paid for
Her response on here was well they got the book which while true isn’t sufficient
As you say an apology would go a long way not why it is never her fault but always yours
I know she apologized for the Cameron tweet but I do wonder at the character of a person who could write that particularly when allegedly a professional whatever she is now
Actually she looks very different all the time. I’m sure that’s not good for TV. You need to be identifiable.
Hmm, we haven't heard much about Jack's crippling arthritis in a long time. If we mention it here in a few posts, she'll have a flare-up by the end of the week, right?
yes, that’s what I meant. Different in each photo and also so different from the beginning of this year up to now, including the wig wearing.

“Gratuitously self-lubricating“.40 minutes?those sausages would be incinerated, the fat would burn
I notice this as my husband is terrible at recognising people if they change their hair! Especially significantly.
How did I not notice she’s lost full use of her hands since I’ve followed her?
I am northern Irish and I honestly never had my first taste in instant mash until I was at uni. ( It wasn't nice) we grew up poor but my mum always had potatoes and we even grew our own.The ‘live for today and shovel whatever tit you want into your body’ ethos is pretty appalling from someone who’s meant to be making delicious, nutritious, low budget recipes for people who are barely scraping by. I’m so sorry to hear of all of your losses, Fraus. I lost one of my best mates to the big C very recently (especially brutal in these times), he left us far too young. I can’t really say much more about it because I’m struggling massively with the grief, but my big old hairy heart goes out to you all.
Also....wtf was that bowel glue she served with the sausages?? Polenta and instant mash? Isn’t she meant to be part Irish? Ffs, buy a POTATO, woman.
It's bizarre to me that her first instinct was to "check her database" and accuse the poster of not being on the (no doubt meticulously kept!) list of people who bought the book. Nobody who is actually confident that they've done their job well gets on the defensive that fast.Found this in the comments under her 'ultimate lasagne' recipe.

Jack will always fall back on blaming it on years of trolling, and I appreciate she has received some abuse, but deep down it's because she knows that her recipes are plagiarised, poorly conceived or flat out untested.
I've been this person. I see it clear as day.
Massively speedy grunka before work (I’m BUSY). With the tooled up mice, the stuffed fox, the postman, and Brenda’s dick sausages all you Frau have really made me snort and hoot on a bit of a miserable morning. And massive hugs to those touched by the C - my boys lost their dad a couple of months ago (we were divorced but good friends) and he was only in his fifties.

She really needs to work on the layout/design of her website. At the moment, each recipe is just one long rambling blog post, with no formatting whatsoever. Makes it horrible to read (as if the content wasn't bad enough). She needs to have clearly defined sections - Introduction, Ingredients, Method - and under the title a clear 'makes in'/'serves'/'difficulty level'/'cost per serving'. It would be just about passable if she was a complete novice who'd just started writing a blog as a hobby, but she's been doing this for years now and hasn't upped her game at all.
Different region, but we grew our own veg instead of flowers, as did our neighbours, when I was growing up. I remember having instant mash at Uni...it was a greyish colour and tasted overwhelmingly of pepper
Haaaang on is this where the ‘plenty of black pepper’ thing comes from?

"I take criticism as well as nice comments, what a daft thing to say"
Followed in the same paragraph by
"I'm sorry.........that you felt the need to hurt my feelings about it."
So you can't take criticism because it hurts your feelings, therefore not such a daft thing to say at all.
Either you can accept criticism in the way it is intended, to inform you when things are not up to an acceptable standard. Or you get hurt when someone gives you negative feedback. You can't have it both ways.
(I directed that to her, as we all know she is reading here.)
She tweets an awful lot for someone who basically lost the use of her hands two years ago
Your son did not love that, Brenda.
She lost FULL USE of her hands at 29? Let’s just contemplate that for a second. Full. Use.Found this in the comments under her 'ultimate lasagne' recipe.
