I am really UPSET by this!
I work all weekend, and DP has to feed the kids. He is a USELESS git cook, and refuses to let me teach him. He gives them FROZEN JUNK FOOD and I have to accept this. BUT, he has gone TOO FAR!
I came home from work yesterday, and there, in MY OVEN, were GOD DAMNED, never to be event located within a hundred yards of my general vicinity, CRISPY PANCAKES!!
I'm not sure if I can get over this, what should I do??

Me and DH are having crispy pancakes tonight Blush

Oooo, crispy pancakes and curry supernoodles - takes me right back to university. Sounds like he's a keeper.

worraliberty · 07/11/2011 16:13

Mmmm I haven't had crispy pancakes for years!

YANBU though

They're shit in the oven...they need to be fried.

HTH

oh i love butterscotch angel delight. Whenever we come to England (which isn't often enough) I always stock up. That and Bisto gravy granules and Birds eye custard powder. I live in France which is supposed to be a civilised country.

worraliberty · 07/11/2011 16:19

Ohhh have you tried Bisto Best BarbieDahl?

It's like a thick powder and much nicer than the granules...more expensive though but worth it.

banana87 · 07/11/2011 16:21

You better not ever move to the USA then OP!

BarkisIsWillin · 07/11/2011 16:26

He doesn't feed them PotNoodles then?

BarbieDahl · 07/11/2011 16:36

OK thanks Bisto Best is now on my shopping list. We are coming over for Christmas - can't wait.Smile

Minced beef crispy pancake = divorce

Creamy chicken n mushroom crispy pancake = long and happy union

KatieScarlett2833 · 07/11/2011 16:40

WHERE CAN I BUY THEM?????

wheredidiputit · 07/11/2011 16:50

KatieScarlett

I buy them ASDA.

wheredidiputit · 07/11/2011 16:51

PS

I don't give them to the DC.

I have them when I want junk when i have PMt.

whatdoiknowanyway · 07/11/2011 16:55

Could be worse. My dad made deep fried spam fritters for us on the one occasion I ever remember him cooking for us when I was a child.

gettingalifenow · 07/11/2011 17:20

Like proudnscary - depends entirely on the filling. And if the kids were drinking fruit shoots with them

PeneloPeePitstop · 07/11/2011 17:33

Cheese ones and chicken and mushroom.
Nom nom nom.

notjustme · 07/11/2011 17:55

Oh crispy pancakes are lovely, if mouth burning!

DP agrees with the poster who said that they should be fried.

Haven't had them for years but I know they sell them in Iceland, and they sell Hamwiches too.

Saggyoldclothcatpuss · 07/11/2011 18:46

I cook everything from scratch, I just can't accept CP I'm afraid! He will be home in a bit and I'm going to tell him it's me or the pancakes!

YANBU Saggy, they taste like they were formed in the devil's colon.

Pack his bags, change the locks, change the DC's surnames and forbid them to speak to him ever again.

I have never heard anything so sickening in my entire life.

Hamwiches though......

MrBloomsNursery · 07/11/2011 18:54

Oh shut up, you weirdo. If you're a qualified chef then cook them food and leave it in the fridge for him to warm up. Otherwise, shut up.

lauzb · 07/11/2011 19:10

Findus? That's ok. Supermarket own? Divorce him, NOW, obviously!

Yes, YABU!

Yum what flavour were they?

My dirty secret is Fray Bentos pies. I bloody love them and it shows.

Lead me to those Crispy Pancakes. If only the DDs would eat them...
