To be really annoyed

On Monday I made a Yule log my favourite cake. He’s had 2 and a bit slices since and I’ve practically eaten all of it. I make it once a year really and being the week of my period have been craving it like mad. Have had an awful week with endometriosis pain and an extra long day at work today too so was really craving a slice. On the way home I stopped to get bread and milk and didn’t get any treats as I had Yule log at home. Only gone to get some and he’s binned the log he claimed we didn’t need it he’s eaten way too much of it the cake. he’s apologised for binning it but only after I got annoyed I’m currently crying in bed from the pain having taken some morphine craving this log Xmas Grin

He binned a cake you made! What the fuck is wrong with him? I'm sorry but I don't find that in the slightest bit funny I'm outraged for you. I would have taken it back out the bin and shoved it right in his face!

As pp LTB immediately no way should you forgive this misdemeanor

Ooh, that's pretty good. Mini rolls a pale imitation of your Yule log but doughnuts and cookies should be solacing.

Sorry I'm laughing. I have been known to cry when someone's ate my chocolate. Especially when hormonal. God if it was a yule log it would of finished me off. I think its worse that he's binned it and not eaten it as its been WASTED! Fuming for you.

Notimeforaname · 08/12/2021 22:49

Ah I'd take that. He tried. But what kind of a dope throws perfectly good cake out ?!
Command him to make a replacement with his own fair hands.

OhGiveUp · 08/12/2021 22:50

He binned perfectly good cake...and a chocolate one at that??
It's not the cake mix that you should be beating with your wooden spoon OP! 😡

I think, with the decent effort at the shop and the promise of appropriate remedial roll making, you should graciously forgive him OP.

I agree! You made it and it looked delicious. It wasn’t his to dispose of. Nothing funny about chucking away something lovely made by your partner. Such an odd thing to do and so unkind. Shop bought will not compare.

I should hope so! Is he any good at baking?

I'M FURIOUS FOR YOU!!! Angry

This post has honestly made me more angry than anything else I've read on Mumsnet. I'm even a bit annoyed with my own DH imagining he'd done this!

Thrown your bloody yule log in the bin. Un bloody believable!

@Gravychicken

Picture of my Yule log
RIP Yule Log. You look delicious.
sycamorescrumptious · 08/12/2021 23:05

That looks so good! Any chance of the recipe please OP? My last one turned out as a disappointing chocolate pancake Sad

VaulterTech · 08/12/2021 23:10

Ah op, Yule log is my fav too and yours looked amazing! I would hit the roof, and I wouldn’t forget it either! I hope you feel better soon

Ohmybod · 08/12/2021 23:12

Honestly, in your state I’d have clawed it back out of the bin and eaten it there on the spot. I hope you feel better soon. Oh and LTB, obvs.

CtrlU · 08/12/2021 23:17

That looks bloody delicious. Recipe please

GertrudePerkinsPaperyThing · 08/12/2021 23:21

You don’t bin the fruits of someone else’s labour ffs! I wouldn’t find that any laughing matter either.

If he doesn’t want to eat it he can just … not eat it!

Narutocrazyfox · 08/12/2021 23:22

Christ alive OP.

Well done for not commuting murder. Honestly who TF bins cake?!? I'm fuming on your behalf...

It’s the Mary berry recipe It always turns out lovely only tip is to watch the cake as it’s so thin it cooks in minutes and can easily become over done

ZenNudist · 08/12/2021 23:27

None of those shop bought things as good as your home made cake but crispy creme donuts micro for like 10 seconds are lovely when fresh.

Throwing away cake on Wednesday after being made Monday is criminal

ChardonnaysPetDragon · 08/12/2021 23:28

Why do people bin perfectly good food? He binned there cake and the leftover dinner?

Sparklfairy · 08/12/2021 23:29

he claimed we didn’t need it he’s eaten way too much of it the cake.

Well if HE'D eaten to much of it, the nice, kind, loving thing to do would be to leave you to finish the lot, not bin the bloody thing!

Clearly he didn't trust his self control, so deprived you of cake too Sad

If it were me, tomorrow, while wearing black and preferably a veil seemingly in deep mourning, let out a dramatic sigh and say weakly, "I don't think your shop treats have quite healed my sense of loss, I think I need you to get me some more" Grin

CtrlU · 08/12/2021 23:29

Trying this tomorrow 😋

EKGEMS · 08/12/2021 23:31

Not only would I be in black but I'd be playing a funeral dirge and placing black bunting around the entrance to my home! Cake is sacred to me
