I'm not. Dh is dead to me

[MulhuddartDrive]

He just went and got me a cup of tea and a hot cross bun. He only put butter one one side. One fucking side . What sort of deviant eats hot cross buns either a) without butter, or b) like a sandwich. I'm ltb.

He’s lamenting his lack of butter now

And so the Victim Shaming begins.

Stay strong. Do you want your DCs to grow up thinking this is acceptable?

Mumsnet is behind you.

For you OP, with Unmumsnetty hugz x

Evil abomination of a husband.

Vile. Leave, and run, as fast as you can. And never go back.. Ever.

Many, many years ago when I hadn't even started going out with X I called round at his student house for a cuppa. He asked if I wanted a hot cross bun. I said yes and he put one on the table with my tea, completely untouched- not sliced, buttered or anything I sat for a while thinking he was going to put out a knife and butter for me to do my own. Eventually I realised that was it and I ate my sad, dry bun. It was actually a very apt metaphor for our future relationship and I should have heeded the warning!

M&S have a variety called Mini Breakfast Loaves of hot cross bun. I saw them

Unfortunately for me, I'm on a diet and such delights are not permissable, but everyone else can benefit in my stead

MY patio is being pushed up with roots from next door's cherry tree, so I'm sure any corpses-who-got-what-they-deserved can be installed underneath and no eyebrows raised.

do people only butter one slice of the bread in a sandwhich?

Pray tell where can we get Booths hot cross buns? They sound brilliant!

Need. Hot. Cross. Buns.

Fuck me. This should have had a ‘trigger’warning in the title 😡

I assumed he’d left the loo seat up or forgotten to break wine home...

I had no idea it would involve carbs. Lovely, lovely HCB flavoured carbs...

I’ll just go and rock in the corner, don’t mind me. Me & my low carbing misery...

...and no, I don’t want more buttery vegetables instead. Thanks.

(low carbing to avoid medication so it’s not negotiable, sadly)

But on the bright side, veggie patch needs digging over & fertilising...

My God what has the world come to -clutches- -pearls- this will be in the daily fail tomorrow their -journalists- apprentices will be up all night making note of the deviant behaviour.

I’m sorry I can’t get passed whispers unsalted butter... faint

that is a massive red flag. Hes probs a serial killer. Id leave in the night and go to a safe place. Pass on this info to the police so they can stop him before he spreads his weird teacake ideas to anyone else

The concrete lorry arrives tomorrow for our extension foundations - bring the rest of the buns and a slab of butter and I will deny seeing anything 😂

I read the OP to DH, assuming he'd share the horror. Apparently he's eaten them like a sandwich before & "it's actually quite nice that way when it's not toasted." Not toasted?! I can't stand them myself but even I know the correct procedure for preparing HCBs - cut in half, toast & slather butter on quick so it goes all melty. I had no idea anyone didn't do this!

CoolCarrie Booths is a family owned small chain of high end small supermarkets in Lancashire! Google Booths supermarkets they are of a similar ilk to Waitrose/M&S food but all about expensive delicious food locally produced etc etc they produce the most amazing 'Booths book' each Christmas which is sent out to Booths card holders it's actually a brochure for ordering Christmas food but honestly it's more like a coffee table hardback book full of glossy pics of food! Must cost a bomb to make but then the food is £££££

Has he apologised though?

I just had to dig out the Christmas panettone. It's the closest I have to a hot cross bun . . . and it's not close enough

If he's like that about hot cross buns in dread to think what he puts on pancakes.

At the very least you need to have a talk with him.

Is he lazy in other ways? Does he stir the sugar in your tea or just drop it in?

If off for dripping in toast with salt in top ..... DH is packing his bags in disgust

Win/win

Joey, he did apologise, but tbh, it was a bit self serving, more sorry for himself that he was jealous of my butter correction.

Oh, and for the butter debate, ours is proper Irish salted butter . in all honesty, the hcb is merely a butter delivery system

I'm so sorry, OP, but he is not your 'D'H, he is simply your H.
How could he do this to you?

What about if your seriously narked bunny has lashing of butter on both sides and is then stuck back together? Or 2 stuck together, lashing of butter both sides and stuck back together, so it takes less time to eat 4 so no one knows you have them?

*lashings

Seduce your man into getting the butter on the side, then eat and leave him wanting more as well
