My general rule for Jack is "pics or it's not true" and as we all now know, even if there ARE pics it still mightn't be true with her. I find it really odd for a food writer to never post pics of the food she eats once in a while, even if she didn't make it. She's a food writer, NOT A CHEF remember. Where are the pics of this glorious chippy dinner?

Jack Monroe #83 The Case of the Disappearing Poverty Manuscript & Other Short Stories
#Possible thread title?yellow stickered poisoned dragons liver... I am hooting up a lung again
It would be like the 30s and 40s threads all over again. Those long, wordy pages with nary a Tom Cruise to be seen.Ahahaha if you blocked GIFs half of these threads would be empty.
Jokes
Catching up so sorry if this has already been mentioned. Jack gave up drinking New Year's 2019. She wrote her gushing I'M CURED Guardian article a few days later.
It just seems to me that baking beer bread less than TWO WEEKS into your recovery from 200 units a week is a bit of an unusual idea, no?
Not especially. Just nice for her.
I love the gifs, they give me life. This thread is a good light hearted escape Fraus please don’t make me read essays
Nope, she's congratulating herself on picking a great co-parent. Not thanking him for bringing her food. Typical narc.
scramptions/scranshems, we could write some kind of scathing essay on hyper-local linguistics!
“Dad, I had to eat stale potato cakes for breakfast and had 5p sausages every single day. Mum’s still got a pack of chicken liver and a bottle of E.coli pesto in the fridge”
“Let’s get you to the chippy, son”
I definitely Grunka-ered through those too quickly. I've gone back to 30 and have started again.
what did I just say about essays?! I SHAN’T read it
Careful Alan, you don't want lines after school.
I must stop gif'ing jacks face onto other people X10
See, this is why I would never make it as a business owner. If I gave my product to people to “plug”, I would not be happy if it got mentioned once and dumped behind the rabbit hutch. I’d be looking for:
* pizza night once a week, including winter, where they are eating what they’ve made
* pictures of offspring standing next to pizza oven in the obligatory “first day back at school” snaps
* the pizza oven brought inside and included in family Christmas pics
* the pizza oven to be featured in at least one cooking cartoon video. Oh no wait....
A question for the parent frau’s amongst us.
If your child was visiting you, and mentioned they were being given cheap sausages, constant slop, dry cooking bacon and stale tiger rolls and bagels, would you be talking to the other parent about their choices in food that they’re feeding your shared child?
As this stuff she’s feeding him is not only not nutritious, it’s also very dangerous in terms of stale food. But as a non parent I have no idea if my line of thinking is wrong - I really hope this is his way of intervening by bringing in a fish shop tea.

alan and oz are from slightly different areas of the north east of England. in this essay, we shall examine...
The question isn't would you be talking to the other parent, it's how many times do you think they've had that conversation?
