Mine is that one of my Tesco Chicken Caesar wraps had NO Caesar dressing on it!!! While the other one had obscene amounts on it. Per MN rules I'm not simply livid, but Beyond Livid about this.

So what's Your First World Problem Today?

furforks but you’re still working even if it’s from home! No difference to working outside the home! Get thee a cleaner!!

I've previously had an eyelash perm at a new salon where I wasn't happy with the results.

Matters weren't helped when I saw my face scrolling up my Facebook timeline, advertising their services.

For some reason, I kept their contact details on my phone as well as my preferred salon.

My perm needs re-doing at the beginning of July and I've accidentally made an appointment with the wrong salon.

I'm going to have to cancel and blame work.

I am also going to remove their details from my contacts list......

I can't find a good cleaner with availability. Really need/want one.

can't find my new eyebrow pencil so I have to use my old one instead which is a tad bit too dark and I'll look like I have Scouse brows which i hate but my eyebrows are too sparse and patchy to go out without filling them in a bit.

My PT is due in 10 minutes and the bastard sun just came out, so now I’m going to get all hot and sweaty 😡

My Mum and brother came over for lunch on Sunday. My Mum brought a chocolate cake because she likes cake, I had bought a chocolate cake because it's DS's birthday today so Sunday was the closest day to his birthday that the whole family were together, DD had made chocolate cake on Saturday evening, because she was bored. We had too much chocolate cake.

My strawberry tartlet is soggy and I've bought two of them. That'll teach me to buy the reduced pastries at the supermarket.

There are 5 bottles of unopened gin in the house. FIVE. But no Russian vodka.

My pain aux raisins was too bready.

Forgot baby's spoon so had to go in the cafe to borrow one of their spoons to give him lunch rather than just sit on a bench in the park. This meant I had to buy myself a latte as well so as not to seem like a CF using their spoons. Bloody nightmare.

I'm on holiday in Wales and the 3 Sainsburys I've tried haven't had one of their top ten books of the month....or Sugar Puffs. I'm heartbroken.

HelenaJustina · 12/06/2018 17:28

There is one brownie left and one white chocolate chip cookie, I’m worried that DH will choose the brownie and I’ll have to graciously accept the cookie...

Wellfuckmeinbothears · 12/06/2018 19:08

@Caribou58 I’m on my way...I’ll bring the vodka you crack the gin open for me!

ZispinAndChai · 12/06/2018 19:15

I cooked pasta primavera. We had no parmesan to shave on top.

FrannySalinger · 12/06/2018 19:18

I fear that I whisked egg into the bechamel for my moussaka whilst the sauce was too hot and it's slightly curdled.

Plus dh has asked if we are having garlic bread with it. Philistine.

My cleaner is coming tomorrow instead of Friday so I will have to clean over the weekend.

IamXXHearMeRoar · 12/06/2018 19:23

Can't decide between falafel and quiche. Might have to eat both.

MotherofPearl · 12/06/2018 19:31

My friend gave me a present of two Le Creuset ramekins to add to my set.

Unfortunately they are not exactly the right shade of blue.

BlackAmericanoNoSugar · 12/06/2018 19:33

MotherofPearl, you must buy four more ramekins two each in two shades of blue that are not a match to any of the ramekins you already have. If you have four different shades it will look intentional and artsy.

SparklySeashell · 12/06/2018 19:35

I am desperate for some chocolate, DH is not back from work yet and the DC's have had an early night and are in bed already, so I can't pop out to get any, I so want some!!!

MotherofPearl · 12/06/2018 19:36

Good idea Americano. Grin

MuddyForestWalks · 12/06/2018 20:36

I would love to go to the nice pub near me for a glass of wine and a bowl of chips. Alas DH is at work and leaving the DC home alone would be more than slightly frowned upon.

WeeMadArthur · 12/06/2018 21:20

I can’t get enough slices of wafer thin ham out of the packet for a sandwich without having to touch every single rumpled slice.

MrStarkIDontFeelSoGood · 12/06/2018 21:25

Took Mac to Apple Genius for a minor issue to be told I'm on borrowed time with it and need a new one.

It is 8 years old but still Sad

I made the most amazing pasta, pesto and cheese dinner . It was Instagram worthy.

Afterwards, I remembered why since gallbladder surgery pesto is forbidden.
