The American woman is at it again. Not satisfied with destroying tea she's turned her attention to scrambled eggs grin

Thanks for that vampirequeen it gave me and Mr. S. a good laugh and made us thankful that on the rare occasions we had breakfast out when staying in Florida, we never had scrambled eggs.

Oh dear Elegran I love golden syrup on my porridge; sorryblush

I think you should get back into bed and then get out of the other side, Carmelrose. No need to get your knickers in a twist.

The lady is laughing all the way to the bank. Serious money to be made once you get 100,000 hits.

Perhaps I could make some dosh telling Americans how to make burgers or southern fried chicken. OH ordered grits out of curiosity - looked a bit like sloppy bread sauce.

I obviously don’t exist. Born in England but with Irish and Welsh blood only. Why do some people keep trying to cause division the whole time?

Oh dear, it was joke.
Like the woman's cookery lessons.

Your tone is condescending then you question division-

Terribull we call it French toast in Scotland not eggy bread ,the French call it Pain Perdu (sp) usually involves vanilla and sugar,Ours doesn't its served with bacon and eggs

Is that meant to be funny - or just plain childishly rude?
Based on your insults lashed out to all and sundry today I have my own views hmm

Has rosecarmel been hacked?

She's never normally like this!

MawB Mon 22-Jun-20 23:24:44

Hacked off more like hmm

Grandmafrench Mon 22-Jun-20 23:38:19

"She's never normally like this?!"

Oh yes she is - just try some of nonsense she comes out with on the Estrangement threads. Difficult to see anyone with more anger issues and with a lower opinion of the members of Gransnet.

Is there any British person on here who isn’t fully aware that N. Ireland, Wales, Scotland and England are separate countries? I hated geography but even I know that!

Rosecarmel called me Sussucks! I won’t sleep tonight!

Never come across that side of her before. ??‍♀️??

rosecarmel Tue 23-Jun-20 03:22:39

Haha big fibber!

What that woman made in no way resembles tea. I don't care where you live...

I am going to brave her 'egg video' now... Wish me luck.

HolyHannah Tue 23-Jun-20 06:01:04

I really hope she is just an attention seeker and these ridiculous 'recipes' are just a gag... Next will be 'Fried eggs on a Bonnet' and her in the lane-way showing she knows which end of a car is which. LOL

Callistemon Tue 23-Jun-20 09:57:38

I wondered about at at first because she is so dead-pan but I think she's a hoot.

Having watched a couple more, she manages to simultaneously take the Mickey out of two nations' cuisine!

The tea one is fabulous.

Sussexborn Tue 23-Jun-20 12:20:29

Haven’t made French toast for years probably because we make our own bread as OH has allergies. It would be the same without processed bread.

I used to fry the bacon then cook the eggy bread in the same frying pan to ensure maximum flavour.

Does that give you a modicum of childish satisfaction I wonder?

grannylyn65 Wed 24-Jun-20 18:13:13

Since when is ‘Maw’ allowed to police posts?

Whoa there Grannylyn65 !
I wondered whether rendering Sussexborn ‘s name as Bornsussucks - was not a particularly childish retort, especially being aware of that unpleasant Americanism that something “sucks”
MawB is not policing posts , but exercising her right to comment as I assume I may?
So if anybody doesn’t like that they can follow Oor Wullie’s advice in similar circumstances.

Namsnanny Wed 24-Jun-20 18:49:08

Callistemon...I havent watched the others but the tea one got to me.
Yes I'm sure she is winding us up for profit.
Just look at the little girls face as she makes tea.
Suppressed grin or what?!

rosecarmel ... It could be said you enjoy a wind up too, and it wont be the first time some one thought your account was hacked. Grandmafrench obviously noticed.

As an aside, did anyone watch the vid after of the Englishman testing her methods out?
Could he be more different to her?
The contrast just amused me, but then, I am easily amused. smile
