To think it was obvious they were for the kids??

DS is having a little play date today, low key birthday “party” but DS doesn’t really do parties so it’s more of a gloried play date.
Yesterday I did some baking … 8 sausage rolls, 8 scotch eggs, 8 jam slags and 8 chocolate brownies.

Came down this morning and most of it is gone, I text DH asking if he’d touched the baking and he said yes, he’d taken it for work.

im fuming, isn’t it fucking obvious that they were for the kids for today?? He’s insisting that it was not obvious. This is not the first time he’s done something like this.

Of course it's obvious, you have a kid's party today. Unless you often bake loads of stuff just for the sake of it

Did he know about the party?
If he did then I am sorry you are married to such a thoughtless individual.
OTOH, any reasonable person would check before helping themselves to a large quantity of freshly prepared food.

I assume ‘jam slag’ is a typo? 🤣 But I’m curious (and hungry) now. And yes, H deffo knew it was for the party.

mathsAIoptions · 01/06/2024 09:18

Fucking men. I bet he did fuck all for the party too.

Dishwashersaurous · 01/06/2024 09:18

I need to know what is a jam slag?

Also, do you regularly bake for him to take into work? If so, then could understand the confusion.

If not, then that's just really odd

footgoldcycle · 01/06/2024 09:19

I would be telling him to come home with it all
Immediately!

I'm sure an boss will understand when he says he came to
Work with all the food for his kids party

Comedycook · 01/06/2024 09:19

Of.course you are right. Who makes their husband sausage rolls and jam tarts for their lunch. He knew.

FOJN · 01/06/2024 09:19

Selfish and greedy.

Copperkryten · 01/06/2024 09:19

Yep, I'm here for the 'jam slag' too

WimpoleHat · 01/06/2024 09:19

Even if it wasn’t obvious it was “for the party”. It was obviously “for something”, wasn’t it? Really thoughtless not
to ask.

Persipan · 01/06/2024 09:19

Having now caused you significant inconvenience, how has he proposed that he resolve this?

Benjaminsniddlegrass · 01/06/2024 09:19

I love the idea of a jam slag too!

But yes your 'D'H is a dick and a selfish one at that.

FOJN · 01/06/2024 09:19

Assume "jam slag" is a jam tart.

Treacletoots · 01/06/2024 09:19

What a selfish twat. I divorced one just like this.

Changingplace · 01/06/2024 09:20

What an idiot, unless you often do random baking of course it was for the kids, didn’t he know you had a little party happening!

Comingupriver · 01/06/2024 09:20

Is he jealous of the kids? How odd.

HappyGoLucky96 · 01/06/2024 09:21

He only took a couple sausage rolls fs not to far I’m sure u can jump to Greggs

Mistressofnone · 01/06/2024 09:21

Selfish idiot. Some men can't seem to control their appetites and play dumb to get away with it. That's a lot of food - did he eat it all?

LizzieBennett73 · 01/06/2024 09:21

He knew, OP.

SausageRoll2020 · 01/06/2024 09:21

I'm mostly here to find out what a Jam slag is....

Why didn't you just mention you'd done baking for the party? Doesn't seem unreasonable to eat food in one's own kitchen.

Berlinlover · 01/06/2024 09:22

What’s a jam slag? If your husband knew your son was having a party today then yes he is very selfish.

EliflurtleAndTheInfiniteMadness · 01/06/2024 09:22

He's a selfish jerk and a liar who doesn't GAF about messing up his kids birthday, that's pretty low.

Persipan · 01/06/2024 09:22

I am fully going to come up with a recipe for jam slags, by the way.

SneezedToothOut · 01/06/2024 09:22

Presumably a jam slag is a jam tart.

Tel12 · 01/06/2024 09:23

Did he know about the party? What's a jam slag?
