Who gets to have the milk?

The fucking kids have managed to go through eight pints today.

Dh has just got home and had a bowl of cereal and then realised that was almost the last of it.

He said, oh well, there's enough for my tea and cereal in the morning.

I said what about my coffee. Can't you have toast instead?

He says he doesn't like toast for breakfast, only lunch. And I'll have to have black coffee (it's instant, so bleurgh).

I can't function without coffee. I especially can't function and then walk an hour's round trip to the shop without coffee. I usually have at least three before 9am so even leaving me enough for one is a sacrifice.

I think he should forgo his breakfast cereal and have one of the many other breakfast options in the house (toast, brioche, eggs, whatever).

He won't budge. I'm now sulking. AIBU or is he?

On a totally and utterly unrelated note, what shade of paint is your kitchen wall?! It's just what I'm looking for! Sorry to be a thread hijacker!! Smile

Oh I've hidden the Nesquik now. At least until one of them goes to the shop to replenish the milk.

None of them are up yet so I'm on coffee #2, watching Lie To Me on Netlix and pondering a second morning ciggy. I'm in my happy place. Dh is forgiven.

He's not really grumpy. He's lovely. But I was ready to kill him at the thought of no coffee.

He must have hacked your mumsnets and found out everybody was saying LTB and the thought of you leaving him made him so upset he couldn't consume any dairy based substance's Grin

"plastic cartons of fresh milk are just reconstituted dried anyway"

What? No!
