People are still offering her things and she’s ever so sanctimoniously telling them to give them away and she would hate to think of things going to her instead of others.
As we know she reads here - £10k+ for a few hours work isn’t just a salary, it’s a bleeping windfall of cash. It is SUCH a privilege to have access to big piles of cash like that at any one time & if you don’t make the most of it then more fool you?! And shame on you tbqh!

If you couldn’t save £10k (after taxes etc etc) in the midsts of a pandemic and the sharpest global recession in history then I’m not really interested in your money saving tips! Furlough the help and make your own white vinegar limescale cleaner? Fabulous but we’ve all been financially independent for time so duck off!

All these sweet people taking their time to innocently offer assistance, while she is sat dipping 2 fingers in a Clarins pot as if it is unctuous anchovy butter.

super injunction? Or more likely, she is too irrelevant for them to take any notice of.

And with the exes. Probably think it is wise to keep on her good side.
can you imagine the whoppers she would come out with if an ex dared say anything remotely critical. she would destroy them. she is happy to do this virtual strangers.

Ah, thank you. It’s basically a bag of Quorn mince, 1 leek, 1 courgette, 2 carrots, 2 tins of tomatoes, mixed herbs, 1 tin of baked beans, 500ml of vegetable stock, vegetable granules to thicken, salt, garlic, a smidge of chilli flakes to taste and a reasonable amount of black pepper.

Slowly cook vegetables until softened, add garlic and chilli, add Quorn mince. Cook out for about 5 minutes then add tomatoes, mixed herbs and stock. Add seasonings to taste and granules to your preferred thickness. Sorry, not very good at writing down recipes as I usually just make them up as I go along.

I made a variation of this recipe up (sorry Jack) in 1996 when I left home for the first time and it’s been a mainstay ever since. I usually serve with mashed potatoes, perfect for how autumnal it was yesterday.
Thank you so much for taking the time to write this out, it sounds perfectly autumnal. I’m adding it to my list for next week!

Um I think you’re forgetting the groundbreaking avant garde YouTube cooking show that Jack bravely wrote, directed, starred in and edited all under the witness protection program

Why does she sharpen her knives that way?



Clearly isn't that great as she's still putting in effort cutting it ? And why is She cutting it like she's only used a knife three times in her life??

Close to a grand a month for absolutely nothing, just existing?

Topped up with SIX books worth of royalties, YouTube, aff links, website cash, Guardian think pieces, TV appearances, brand collabs (admittedly thin on the ground), freebies from brands it’s simply undeniable that she’ll be in the top 5% of the country, and with a diversified enough income to always be okay (unlike most of us who just have one employer?).

So not in the mood to hear wealthy people complain about their own financial mismanagement.

Re: the high street restaurant consultancy stuff, something in the back of my mind was telling me that I once read (in one of her books I bought before I realised what a bullshit merchant she is) a comment that alluded to her doing recipe development for Nandos (it was something peri-peri related at least).

So I had a quick flick through her two most recent culinary bibles to see if I could find the excerpt...and I couldn't, but I DID unwittingly come across a description of her essentially having an orgasm when sucking anchovy butter off her fingers for the first time.

No need to thank me for that mental image.
Why? I am sorry and I appreciate we all like to share stuff but sweetie you have gone to far!!!! 🙈😂

She'll be well above the average and median salary in the UK if all the above checks out. It's particularly outrageous to be doing this as the UK faces one of the greatest recessions ever known. She should have another one of her infamous garage sales before getting money off of low to middle income followers. It's a disgrace.

I would actually have some respect for her if she said “people your offers to buy me stuff is (very very) incredibly kind, but listen up, I’m actually good for money at the moment, I can afford stuff but I’m just trying to be a bit frugal and budget. I know many of you are in a much more difficult financial situation than me. For those who aren’t I think your money would be better put to use at a food bank. That would make me feel so much better.”

Instead she infers she’s poor for “many reasons” and like the little street urchin martyr she likes to portray she’s like “don’t worry about poor old me not having stuff, just give food to food banks in my honour, I’ll manage to limp along, I may die of hunger but I know (many many) will be saved as a result of my suffering”

She’s done this because nobody on her list of celebrity helpers is begging and pleading poverty like she does and she recognises she has done zero for the cause so this is her gift 🙄 forgoing gifts from deluded fans. Reminds me of the big TV charity shows like children in need when manager of Tesco store Stoke comes on with a big cheque and they say “Tesco store Stoke donates £x”. No fuxkers your customers donated whilst they also lined your pockets buying your products!
Soz for rant!
Insufferable twit!
Yassssssssss!

A lot of us here grew up in situations far worse economically than Jack's but I've never seen anyone USE that fact so much day in day out. Rather than focusing on how fortunate she is NOW and what she could do on a smaller scale she is jizzing away all of the chances she has and continuing with these crazy delusions of grandeur. It's so so self defeating, not to mention bleeping disingenuous.

I see Jack is still playing with the poverty pretence. Thank you to @heretoreaditall2019 for working that out. So close to a grand a month for pretending to be poor plus all the extras.

Jack, nobody makes you stay in that expensive area or in such an expensive house. Many places with cheaper rents about.....even in Thorpe Bay. Nearly choked when I realised that's where she lives...talk about privileged.

We lost all work with lockdown and are existing on UC at the moment and I still manage to cook and eat better than you do. Mainly as I have a few tried and trusted recipes which work well....including some from THAT MAN,

Those leeks aren’t diagonal!
I finally put myself through this video on 1.5x speed and hells teeth what a mess it is

Highlights:
- the video opens to 2 minutes of slow, not sped up, leek chopping despite the fact theres a jump cut in there (she demonstrates later on that she knows how to speed up a clip jack WHY DID YOU THINK WE NEEDED TWO MINUTES OF YOU FAILING TO CHOP A LEEK?
- At one point she jump cuts to herself struggling to chop the leek, no not past it, she cuts TO that clip
- At 2:02 the music cuts out and we are left with silence for another 2 minutes.
- Jarringly suddenly, sound effects are added near the 4 minute mark but still no music, they are brief and end quickly leaving us in deathly uncomfortable silence again for the rest of the ELEVEN MINUTE video.
- This should have been a sped up three minute video with no sound, music throughout and without the ghastly filter.
- Why the duck does she have three microwaves stacked on top of each other??? Is that not a FIRE HAZARD
-Oh i take it back, the music comes back at 10:35 for the last 50 seconds...which just makes me think the lack of music for the 9 minutes in the middle was not intentional...

Er, what was she cooking again i completely had no idea what was going on??? The filter and lack of text explaining ingredients means it was just me watching a woman with dirty looking hands spoon radioactive cubes into a dish

I grade this an F. Don't see me about this project

I've got a great money saving hack. Leave the large, detached house in an affluent area. You've already started you can't afford it on your own.
Find a nice affordable 2 bed terrace.
Sell all of the expensive, excessive crap.
Job done!
