Hinge and Bracket - OMG I laughed out loud. The most perfect, accurate description EVER. Thank you. I sent Ruby an excerpt from Youtube. Ruby did not get the joke - he thought it was actually Fanny and Phi performing in the Grand Salon.

Yes, both Steph and PJ are exactly like Hinge and Bracket, from when was it, the 7Os?!

The recipe looks really delicious and the blog Rebel Recipes looks super cool. Thank you for the tip, I will look more into it.

I also vacillate, a bit too much, but it is because sometimes I need to eat certain things for health reasons. We will eat out at restaurants, sometimes twice or three times a month and then I will have a fish dish. At home the occasional egg or piece of cheese here and there. My health situation is quite complicated, one day I will talk about it openly, not yet… anyway, sometimes I need more conventional protein sources. But we cook no meat at home, all the homemade stuff is always vegetarian. I say vegetarian because it may include egg…

Here In Norway we have a very traditional dish that used to be served at Christmas as a “side dish” (it is actually quite tradidional all over Europe, I think) which in Norwegian is called “Nøttestek”. It looks like a meatloaf but it is nothing but nuts, mushrooms and vegetables with some oat meal for biding. ”Nottestek” has been upgraded to main dish and is made in several ways like the ones below. Traditionally it was made egg but now it is mostly all vegan.

I find it so odd that Fanny is happy to go along with Phi Phis vision and direction, his own YouTube channel went down like a lead balloon as people don't engage with his "content" as it not 1954 anymore, who is watching bloody table setting videos?

Especially videos from a schoolboy who didn't even know how to place cutlery correctly!

I seem to vacillate when I try and decide if Stephanie and Philip's "relationship" is real or just for the cameras.
After watching last night's vlog, I found it hard to believe it's fake. The kid was looking both angry (very angry) and hurt when she was making fun of his purchases. Surely, if this was a fake romance that sort of emotion wouldn't be present, would it? I know if I don't like someone, I don't usually spend any effort on emotion, good or bad. And @Just Grift Wood - the tone in Philip's voice when he said "the tea is getting cold and the champagne is getting warm" sent a wave through me - anger, disgust, and a little bit of foreboding. Who is HE to tell HER what to do? Or WHEN to do it? It's her vlog, her home, her money, her life.......she can do as she pleases.

Another thing I realized while watching yesterday's vlog. She no longer gives wide views of anything at that place, except the kitchen. When she's outside, it's a very tight shot of what's in front of her, no more sweeping views. If she's in the garden, it's just the chickens. She no longer gives outside views from her bedroom window of the fountain, so we can't see the evidence of the investigation going on. When they're at dinner, it's very tight shots of people only, no more long views of the where they're eating. Either she's totally embarrassed of that hovel - AND SHE SHOULD BE - or she's hiding something. Could be both.

I'm beginning to find his tone almost menacing and I reckon he could be quite spiteful, in his mind it all belongs to him.

In case anyone wasn't sure

Here's a picture of Dr Evadne Hinge (Snort) and Dame Hilda Bracket (Fanny)

It's as if they'd posed for it.

@Thebirdandthefrog and @MRShavershamdress I am like you for the food. The last time I ate meat I was 15 -forced by my parents-
The first No/ttestek looks great. It looks like a vegan Beef Wellington I made once and I failed :eek:😟:D I will try again with the Norvegian recipe.
I take some inspiration from https://www.youtube.com/@RainbowPlantLife/videos . I love Indian food but her recipes can be easily adapted.

I’ve wondered for a while if Anna was “inspired” by Marc Jacobs’ logo when she came up with her Le Fleur candle logo? Or maybe it was Marc that ripped her off?🤔🤷‍♀️

she's hiding content for the advent vlogs - I'm sure most of the rooms and the fake trees are already decorated. She has already filmed the content with feltmouse Wendygrinch and the Norwegian happy natures.

Of course....that's what it is, she's already done her holiday decorations! I don't know why I didn't remember that.
Regarding Advent vlogs...if all she's got to offer are Hanni, the Wiiks, Wendy Felt Mouse (I love how you called her Wendygrinch!), Amaury's parents, and Philip......we're in for a barrel of laughs.

I feel only slightly sorry for people who rely on her, her fans, to give them that holiday feeling. This is not going to be the year for that, if it ever was.
 
Snorty is such a tool. I‘ve thrown out better crap then he buys.

He’s so gross. The air of superiority, that faux posh accent he uses, the whining, the stupid face, the tight pants, the fugly hair, the girly ways, that walk of his, constantly holding that rat pup, no goals but hanging out with an old Fanny and buying and hoarding moldy old awful sh*t, his hard on for stupid dishes and table implements, Geesh, he’s such a f-ing waste of space. (Yeah, I know, long run on sentence.)

Bottom line, Snorts is rather pitiful and useless in every sense of the word.

In the old days its was genuine preparations and fun with Michael Petherick now it is scripted and pre recorded and about as much fun as genital warts

Snorts is useless, he is also making his Mummy look useless.

Yes, it looks good and I really like that Wellington look. I have never made with the puff pastry on top but I believe it can not be that difficult, specially if we buy a good ready made vegan puff pastry. Actually, most puff pastries in the supermarkets freezers are vegan, they never had real butter.
Let me know if you want me to translate any recipe for you…
I personally like the third recipe, with mushrooms in the mixture.

@ComtesseRose thank you again for keeping these threads on track!
About auntie, I think it’s when she doesn’t wash her hair she pulls it back and it looks terrible. I don’t think they’re bathers on a regular basis. Just my opinion.
The big rat ,oh my God ,a grown man shouldn’t have to explain his purchases ,number one ,number two , does he have free rein of the credit card? I cannot believe Fanny would do that.

Is there still only 1 shower with hot water at the shitoo?
 
@ M&MsMom.
With regard to the wide shots you are 100%. Fanny has to keep her elbows in or she will show damage, evidence, dirt and dilapidation.
Her minions who are using their phones are not so careful.

I still have a hunch that the Porsche is at the dump way more than the Puffs.
I have spotted it a few times.
Lately Tante and Toncle drove up in their Merc a 5 hours drive away, they did NOT come in two cars.
We did see the Porsche going off to buy food for the dump .
Fanny has the flash car and Snorts has the Ford.
A few shots!

Thank you everyone for the new thread. This site is way more fun than the damp chateau of despicable grifters
