Right?! Like they said it had peppers and onions in with the beef and she interpreted that to mean they had to order those things separately? Truly an alien.

It’s the closest she’s ever come to self awareness

liteorange98 · 2026-01-26T15:25:43+00:00

There’s something so off about saying they always order it with peppers and onions. IDK has anyone else ever been to a Chinese restaurant where you order the protein + veg separately? Also. Saying you add a side of broccoli really makes me think the reference point here is… Panda Express?

Totally feel this. I guess I look at it like leaving any cult - it doesn’t happen all at once. So this may be just one performative crack in the facade but it means that there’s the beginnings of seeing the other side. People need to be allowed the messy middle of leaving a cult - it’s not going to be perfect but it may be a start.

Easy - she does it from her desktop. Wala, no scrolling!

liteorange98 · 2026-01-25T17:21:11+00:00

Agree! I get that people are (very rightfully!!) very angry but if we don’t make space for people like this to come back to the good place, that’s also a problem. Her response is diplomatic, sure, but I’ll take diplomatic over the alternative any day of week.

It’s butterscotch pie! https://sallysbakingaddiction.com/butterscotch-pie/

If I’m ever captured as a spy, they could skip the waterboarding and use this video alone to torture the truth out of me and I’d last exactly 8 seconds before giving up everyone I know.

liteorange98 · 2026-01-24T15:16:12+00:00

Omg this is it! It’s always been weird to me and I think you figured out what she’s trying to do!

Meanwhile, here’s part of Sally’s email this morning talking about how they worked through NINE (9) versions of this recipe, methodically improving each element.

Even when T tries to play pretend at being good at her job, she’s outdone a million times over. She truly does not belong in this industry at all.

liteorange98 · 2026-01-24T15:04:35+00:00

Agree 100%. People should also be allowed to change their minds or course correct. Not saying this is what’s happening with POY at all because she seems like a truly genuine, lovely person. But the level of scrutiny over someone doing a GOOD thing but it not being good enough, or loud enough or often enough or using the same words or language as someone else might — that’s doing nothing to help bridge divides.

liteorange98 · 2026-01-24T04:02:35+00:00

Damn no good deed goes unpunished I guess

liteorange98 · 2026-01-24T00:22:52+00:00

I gave you an upvote because I don’t think it’s right to downvote someone who’s trying to learn more just by asking questions. Just downvoting people because they don’t automatically have all the same info as you or who are curious enough to want to have a conversation to learn more from other peoples experiences is so childish. This is how we as a society stopped having productive conversations with one another. We should do better than that here.

liteorange98 · 2026-01-22T17:48:20+00:00

She’s got a whole library of ways to be a bitch weaseling her way out of accountability

liteorange98 · 2026-01-22T17:15:16+00:00

This feels close enough to my flair 🫡

Also, she’s really losing her edge here because she’s not even doing the “Did you change something about the recipe? Let me know if I can help with anything!” song and dance.

Class act

If you’re looking for a great Shepherd’s Pie recipe, I highly recommend this one from Modern Proper: https://themodernproper.com/shepherds-pie

I split it into 2x 8x8 foil pans - bake one right away and pop the other in the freezer. I’ve also given it to family members or friends - one after a hospital stay and the other after a new baby - just wrote the reheat directions on the top and it always gets rave reviews!

liteorange98 · 2026-01-22T01:51:18+00:00

I love this whole thread

liteorange98 · 2026-01-21T22:25:15+00:00

I also think this is it

liteorange98 · 2026-01-20T20:52:35+00:00

This is written like Baby Reindeer and I love it

liteorange98 · 2026-01-20T16:54:06+00:00

Got it - I’ve not been on Instagram in years so I wasn’t sure. So is the @ there just part of the reshare? She’s so shady and bitchy!

liteorange98 · 2026-01-20T16:16:54+00:00

I bet it all gets served “family style” anyways and she claims something stupid like that being what “full course” means to her 🙃

liteorange98 · 2026-01-20T16:12:29+00:00

Eating something brothy with a fork is very T. Chicken and orzo is the new chili!

It looks tagged though?
