To feel like shoving my sister's lasagne up her behind!

[Lottie5]

My sister made a freezable lasagne for my ds's birthday party but unfortunately we had to cancel the party twice due to DS being poorly. Now my sister has said that as we aren't having a party now she wants it back.

Is it me or is this a bit mean? I know it cost her a bit to make but hopefully not that much and we did originally offer to cover the cost of the ingredients but she refused. If the situation was reversed I would feel so sorry for her having to cancel a child's birthday party I wouldn't even think to ask for something back that I had made!! Especially with family - but am I expecting too much?!

OP, I can't believe she asked for it back. I wouldn't dream if doing something like this. As for nit even asking after your DC how awful!
Oh, and I agree that raking back through somebody's posts are creepy!

I think you should ask her around for dinner and share it and celebrate the birthday. Enjoy it together.
On a separate note someone I know raked through all my posts (diff username) and confronted me. I was bitching on here I hold my hand up but she actually read and printed my stuff going back for years. I was truly traumatised and had posted loads of personal stuff. I actually feel like vomiting when I see her around as I feel like I was attacked. She could have pretended she never saw the posts or dropped me a discreet message. I constantly change username now and post under different names for different topics.

if it was a troll, im sure they could think of something more exciting than a lasagne based drama. Soupdragon, are you worried that people will be taken in and offer advice and get deeply involved and hurt over a pasta dish??

Maybe trollhunting is getting a bit silly now?

I would say I have defrosted it already for tonight's tea.

Tell your that when your son felt better he literally begged you to cook it for him and you did because she made it for HIS party that he didn't have because he was so poorly. If she argues with that then it's lARSagne time!!

Tell her! Typo!

Ha ha captain Farrell!!

Thanks behind the painted garden that was a great suggestion!! Thanks for your support it never occured to me soup thought I was a troll but that's hilarious!! Think she was just trying to be clever but yes I was rather creeped out by her response. It's not against the rules to tweak the specifics of a post so that you can't be identified and I find it a shame and against the spirit of Mumsnet to try and "out" a fellow mumsnetter. But hey ho I'm just sad old bat with a lump of frozen beef and pasta what do I know?!

Text her (and mum) and say that she can have the lasagne back but you need the dish back urgently, as you need to make a lasagne for your now not so poorly DC.

Go further, ask her for her recipe and sincerely agree that it would so very bad if her DC became poorly, just like it was for yours, thanks for asking!

I'd scrape it into a shitty carrier bag and hand it back. If she comments tell her you needed your dish and as you couldnt eat the food in it.......
