Forget Brexit this is serious

[Chippednailvarnishing]

"D"H made breakfast this morning. He has this habit of grilling croissants as he likes them "crispy". It gives me the rage, they stay doughy in the middle and overly dry on top.

If I kill him, do you think a court would forgive me? It's been 15 years of crap breakfasts.

He's still breathing. Why?
Well it's complicated, we have many things in common. And things are generally peaceful as we have vested interests. But I do think he's pushing my buttons by repeatedly grilling my croissants.

DH offered to get me some orange juice the other day. I caught him diluting it 50/50 with water. I'm not 2 ffs.

Toasted croissants sound dreadful.

He's making you breakfast and you're moaning?
15 years together and only bring me water if I'm lucky or choking to death!

It's been 15 years of crap breakfasts.

Get of your ass and make your own?

If you dont like how he makes them, do it yourself.

*off autocorrect fail

If I made someone breakfast for 15 years and they threatened to leave me as they dont like how I do it: I'd never make it again. They would shoulder that responsibility from that day forward.

I just went to get out the croissants I bought yesterday to feed DD and her friend and from a pack of 4 there are 2 half croissants left, DH has been breaking bits off and eating them every time he walked past the bread bin. He is on a diet and thinks unless he actually sits down and eats something it's fine, food eaten while moving seems to contain no calories.
The girls are refusing to eat the 2 halves " because they have been touched"

I have no husband to make me unsatisfactory crossiants so yabu

I am sorry but in the light of the recent referendum - croissants are part of the EU so you will shortly not be able to partake of them.

I would enjoy them anyway you can for the moment - their time is short lived in the UK!

If you want to mirror the current shenanigans, then you need to consider removing his head and left arm, and towing the remainder into the middle of the Atlantic.
The croissant question is only a symptom.......

Grilled croissant?! Madness! LTB.

Vile.

At the risk of being called an uneducated racist, I say Leave (the bastard)

chippednail I will look into this and then poss hide and keep for myself! He thinks that as he makes 'proper' coffee I.e in one of those stove top percolater type things then I waste it by making it all milky.. Give me a milky instant anytime as I have no patience (or finesse clearly!) (lighthearted in case anyone tells me he should LTB!)

Grilled croissants are very wrong, and microwaved croissants are even worse, it's oven only!

From now on though, your breakfast should only be toast and Oxford marmalade or The Full English!

Anyone doing the toasting thing should be dunked in a large vat of Bonne Mamam jam, as punishment.

Hoppinggreen yuck yuck yuck. I agree with your girls. I think you need to woman up and protect them from his croissant abuse. Tell him in no uncertain terms that he has to LTBuns! I m so angry at this. were they cinnamon and raisin ones?

I think you need to start your own thread as this is just too much. Is he always such a B read stealer ?

This thread is what we need . Thanks op

Make the most of the croissants, even if they are crispy. Once Nigel Farage and the forces of evil have their way, you will only be able to eat black pudding for breakfast as croissants will be banned .

I agree with oven. They are best when all warm and greasy with melted butter piled on top!

Although I've also discovered filled with ham and cheese and toasted in gorge foreman is a delicious alternative.
Sometimes you need to break from form, step out on your own and see if it works.

I grill croissants for my wife but she loves it! She even leaves the top bit for me as a special treat. I tell her she can eat it all up, but she's always so grateful that I made her such a wonderful brekkie that she let's me have it

Maybe we should drop our car keys in a basket H0LD...

Tallulah you need one of these!

Wasn't marmalade invented for a Spanish Queen? I don't think it's truly English enough for Nigel.

Are they properly shaped croissants or those bizarre straight versions? If they are straight ones AS WELL as grilling them, I'd call it a premeditated attack. The judge would see it your way

This is nothing compared to my husband's terrible croissant-related misdeeds. :( He bought some frozen croissants from the local bakery. Nothing wrong with that, they're great, bake straight from frozen, taste great. But. He forgets to either put them in the freezer or separate them straight away. Again. So last night I separated out a large lump of croissants into sort-of croissant-shaped lumps of sort-of croissant. :( A very sad sight. :(

Still tasted great though. :)

Straight croissants are a bit like Bernard Matthew sticking red labels on his "meats" in an attempt to replicate the French Label Rouge. Just wrong.

Take it to the press. Get practising your daily fail sad face next to a shriveled up burnt croissant!
