Two hours?! The woman is a monster. Move house.

freedom2011 · 23/01/2013 17:04

maybe she was hoping you'd bring the cake? and is at home thinking, I provided the venue, I provided the coffee, I'm up the duff, why couldn't my neighbour stop by the bakery. but yeah YANBU, I always warn people I'm big and happy eater before I go round when invited so they know to put on plenty of cheap carbs. Like "Cake? Yes, I am so looking forward to our catch up and coffee and CAKE. I love a slice or 3 of CAKE me"

Wheresmycaffeinedrip · 23/01/2013 17:08

Maybe she burnt it and the husband ate it :o

Neighbourhoodwatchbitch · 23/01/2013 17:23

To be honest I don't think she would have made it!

I just feel so let down. I feel like I've been the victim of her pregnancy related cake eating.

Is there an authority I can complain to?

Send many cake pics to her on facebook with no comment.

DawnOfTheDee · 23/01/2013 18:00

We are the authority. We are mumsnet.

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 23/01/2013 18:27

Stuff the cake but HALF A CAPPUCHINO Shock

It's all flipping fluff and milk, no substance .
What's half of nothing ,eh?
Nothing!

I've got a Tassimmo . And cupcakes with the turd shaped buttery icing swirl. They are lush and I don't even like butter! Wink

Neighbourhoodwatchbitch · 23/01/2013 18:51

She's got a tassimo too... I don't think it was working properly...

I'm swaying backwards and forwards crying... I may have to divert to Tesco on my way home to get my cake fix.

What?! No cake?!

She didn't even offer flapjack???

Cow.

YADNBU.

SoleSource · 23/01/2013 22:47

Yeah but she created extra syrup on your pancake, didn't she, dirty.

Neighbourhoodwatchbitch · 23/01/2013 22:52

I really think I'm on the verge of ditching her...

She let my child fall in the cat bowl!

SoleSource · 23/01/2013 23:07

Evil evil bitch

What did the police say to her about that?

Pancakeflipper · 23/01/2013 23:17

Next time you get invited, take a cake and pot of filter coffee and don't offer her any of it. You just sit at her table and eat and drink.

missnevermind · 23/01/2013 23:35

We are the authority. We are mumsnet

Grin If ever the truth said in jest Grin

Rowanhart · 23/01/2013 23:59

Laughing at Dee. Whatever happened to the woman whose his and ate the cake?

atthewelles · 24/01/2013 10:13

I think you're all being V.V.U. I bet she had a lovely victoria sponge sitting waiting in the cake tin and, in a moment of pregnancy related amnesia. forgot all about it.

OP, instead of bitching, why don't you just get up on her roof with a fishing rod with a cake attached to the end of it and every hour, on the hour, just dangle it in front of her kitchen window for a minute before reeling it back up. She'll remember the cake eventually and be mortified that she forgot to bring it our; or to finish filling up your cappucino mug.

Mogandme · 24/01/2013 10:21

There are 2 options

  1. She burnt the cake and her husband ate it (selfish bastard)
  2. She fed it to the birds - Do you have birds where you are?
soaccidentprone · 24/01/2013 11:57

are you sure she is pregnant?

perhaps she just ate all the cake?

Neighbourhoodwatchbitch · 24/01/2013 12:48

No birds here to feed... Her bloke may have eaten the burnt cake, but I'm sure she would have been on here complaining if he had.

I really don't know what to do Mumsnet Jury. I like her, but what with the cake incident and then letting my son try to drown himself in the cat bowl I just don't know if it's worth it anymore.

I'm guessing she's pregnant.. She did want me to look after her other child while she gives birth... I'm now tempted to tell her I'm busy baking a cake when she knocks on the door in labour!

Or is that too harsh?
