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??

Fray Bentos S&K pies. To die for.

So clever to produce a product which looks so revolting going into oven and come out so scrummy.

Oh I really fancy some crispy pancakes Grin

Saggyoldclothcatpuss · 08/11/2011 15:58

No, no, no, no! Crispy pancakes are not lovely, they are the food of the devil! As is anything which comes in orange breadcrumbs! FFS when are breadcrumbs ever orange?!

Wonders what Crispy Pancakes are. Have I led a sheltered life?

JeffTracy · 08/11/2011 16:14

FFS has he NEVER HEARD of custard???

KatieScarlett2833 · 08/11/2011 16:17

Are breadcrumbs not orange then?

They are on all my freezer produce

Au naturel, what colour are they?

In mitigation, I was a child of the '70's and never cook real food.

grovel Fray Bentos, the top part is to die for but the meat is/smells a bit like dog food (and that is from someone who loves mince crispy pancakes with tomato sauce) I eat the top and leave the rest. Yum.

FB pies really are sheer genius. Who'd have thought that soggy pastry, sitting on what is basically dog food, would come out of the oven tasting so sublime.

I have just had to add crispy pancakes (findus obviously) to my good order. I showed DH this thread and he was drooling.

Saggyoldclothcatpuss · 08/11/2011 16:21

crispy pancakes
They are cheap processed crap of the first order, they come with crappy cheese in, or butchers floor sweepings mince! They stink and taste rank! They probably have the nutritional value of old innersoles!

Can you tell I cant stand them? Grin

WTF has custard got to do with anything??

FB pies are delicious if you can open the bloody tin. My can opener must be rubbish

Used to eat crispy pancakes when I was a student

Maybe you are crap at teaching him how to cook. Has he ever tried to teach you what he does for a living?

Saggyoldclothcatpuss · 08/11/2011 16:40

Grin @ Katie!
I can teach anyone else, Complex, its just DP. He hates the idea of me being better than him at stuff! The minute I try to teach him he starts going all defensive and stroppy! Its not just cooking, Ive been trying to show him where my clitoris is for years, he refuses to accept the fact that he has absolutely no idea! Grin Grin
