My friend thinks my husband should divorce me

... For doing this to a block of cheese Grin For some reason my DH gets really wound up when people (usually DD) grate the cheese from the 'wrong' end (ie, an end that isn't already grated). Earlier, I was grating cheese for tea and I had a lightbulb moment and grated every possible end, edge, side, corner and angle on the block of cheese Grin

My friend is horrified and thinks DH should divorce me for so much wrongness Grin

Obviously lighthearted

Whoops.

Was I being unreasonable to do this to the cheese?

Heathen.

Jesus Christ woman - you are a monster!

It actually looks quite artistic.

Topseyt · 06/10/2019 17:31

Will DH blow a fuse when he finds that? Grin

iklboo · 06/10/2019 17:31

There is no punishment great enough.

Ariadnepersephonecloud · 06/10/2019 17:31

I personally think it looks nice.m, a work of art indeed. Perhaps he (and your friend) just don't appreciate modern art 😁

DaveTheGhost · 06/10/2019 17:32

It looks like a work of art

Topseyt · 06/10/2019 17:32

I actually think that you should have carved your name into it.

You know who does this?😮
People who have bodies buried in their gardens!

LordProfFekkoThePenguinPhD · 06/10/2019 17:32

But when you slice it to put on your crackers it will be the wrong shape. Unforgivable.

Kilbranan · 06/10/2019 17:32

Haha love it!

Notthetoothfairy · 06/10/2019 17:33

Yes he should LTB!

midnightmisssuki · 06/10/2019 17:34

Sweet lord. What HAVE you done?!!??! Shock

TequilaMockingbird0 · 06/10/2019 17:34

This is only acceptable when down to the final 25% of a block of cheese.

Fair play for going for Red Leicester though, an underrated and underused cheese.

recrudescence · 06/10/2019 17:34

I would correct this abomination by using a sharp knife to restore it to a perfectly smooth and regular block. In the interests of tidiness, I would eat the corrections.

BlueMoonRising · 06/10/2019 17:35

I only have me issue with this.

Skin should only touch cheese that is being used that day. Did you manage to do that without touching the cheese that is going back in the fridge?

If so, I think it's genius! And if your DH doesn't see the funny side, YOU should divorce HIM.

IfYouWannaComeBack · 06/10/2019 17:35

My dad used to get so annoyed with my mum for doing this because he’d like it cut with perfect precision I’m straight lines from one end, so she’d carve hearts into the side of the block and lop off random corners Grin
It used to make me laugh how petty she’d be about it just for fun

VaguelySensible · 06/10/2019 17:41

If this is what you do to one you love, I don't want to get on your wrong side!

Brexitstash · 06/10/2019 17:45

Love it.
When my DH was been pedantic about cheese I took a giant bite and popped it back in the fridge, teethmarks and all.

AintNobodyHereButUsChickens · 06/10/2019 17:51

I can't wait to see his face when he finds it GrinGrinGrin

How dare you do that to the cheese!!! Poor block of cheese Grin

BlueCornsihPixie · 06/10/2019 17:54

Who grates cheese from the wrong end? Shock

Your friends are right, your DH should LTB (and the whole family by the sounds of it!) Grin

MinTheMinx · 06/10/2019 17:54

I'd divorce you for that. Some things are too precious to be messed with, and cheese is one of those things.

nrpmum · 06/10/2019 17:55

My husband would kill me.... Goes off to grate cheese
