Why do her hands look so, so grubby though? Is she using some kind of filter? They look like working man's hands, how and why?! I know I've commented on their hands before I I find them baffling.... I don't think it's the RA, that gives characteristic knuckles. These just look mucky and gnarly.

She does look like she's just came in from picking said oranges of the tree. My kid was 2 month early and his skin especially in his hands is softer than anyone I have ever came across. Her hands remind me of my father in law's, he's a gardener and sometimes his hands when he comes back from a day's work look like that ( with ground in dirt. He had to take a special soap to them to get them looking clean.

I know this is horribly OT and I’m a new Frau on this thread. But. Can I please just say this... I’m in the worst place of my horribly (late thirties) adult life. And stumbling across the cabal has actually meant quite a lot to me, because a group of strangers have actually made me smile and laugh out loud. So without sounding like a sad fishing thunder bleep, I just wanted to express my thanks to all of you. Ahem. I’ll stop now.

No really.I’ll stop.

In other ‘news’ Jack is a menace to society and a terrible wanker xxx

I have to agree with you. I lurk more than post. I'm disabled and sometimes, I can't type or embroider anything but I read and laugh at all your sense of humour and friendliness.
 
Did anyone catch what she added to her insta story? I saw the notification within 2 mins and it had already gone.
Edit - I hope it wasn’t accidental nudes again!

No doubt Jack has one. And if she didn't her maverick brain would make one. It would be horrible, but she would declare it the best hot trifle ever (like hot trifle would ever be a thing.)

ETA I should have Googled it, hot trifle IS a thing :oops:

@MancBee normally I like and agree with your posts but hot trifle can’t be a thing. I refuse to believe it and I will not google it because you must be lying!

It might not have been anything. I’ve seen a few different people it’s happened to recently and over on the Jade Billington thread someone said it’s a current Instagram glitch.

Hot Swiss trifle is indeed a thing. I remember they did it on Blue Peter once, my mum thought it sounded wonderful and insisted on making it. It was rank, but my siblings liked it so we had it many times, much to my horror.

Hot sponge, hot fruit, hot custard - fine. Hot JELLY AND CREAM? Not on my watch!

I’ve been thinking about this since heated trifle was first mentioned, and reached the same conclusion. However, my brain didn’t want to stop there and so I realised that ‘Hot jelly and hot cream’ sounds like the title of a grubby VHS :sick:

Apologies for inflicting this on the cabal!

According to BBC Good Food it is a Scottish recipe. Anyone north of the border like to comment?

ETA Hold your horses, it says it is baked and then cooled and left in the fridge overnight. But there are recipes that are called hot trifle with meringue on top instead of cream.
