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

[Birump]

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.

And even if you're right, his response could have been "it would have been nice to have made some extra so it wasn't all needed for the party" rather than just taking almost all of it anyway!

If my partner texted me that whilst I was arranging and making food for our child’s birthday, I’d have replied ‘and it would be nice to have a partner who pulled his weight sorting his own child’s party’. Except in a much ruder way. A pp has it spot on - this is punishment for not thinking about his precious self at all times.

Then he can order and pay for an Uber to bring them all back to you right now, can’t he, @Birump !

I swear I would be absolutely furious. What a dick move. If it were accidental he’d be doing his best to fix it.

I just want to pick up on this:

Why would he do it on purpose? If he’s that much of an arsehole you’ve got bigger problems.

He’s obviously a twat but is he thoughtless or malicious. Neither is good but one one much worse.

@LostTheMarble oh I completely agree. I'm just saying that even if OP had been inconsiderate to not bake extra like that poster suggested, it's still unreasonable for him to take them all.

I would fucking FUMING!!!

Remember, that not only has he set out to spoil all of your hard work. But he's sabotaged your DS's party. No good man would do this to his child, or even a child.

Nor to his wife either, but sometimes it's easier to forgive slights against ourselves than against our children.

No I know you agree, should have been directed at the poster you were quoting as well. Because they seem to be living in some delusional Stepford world…

I think I'm a bit of a jam slag

Obviously, he is a selfish prick.

But more importantly, please give more detail on what jam balls are. Your jam slags are really intriguing and I need further description/photos because I think I want some. Thank you.

So you baked 32 items for a party and he took “most” which I presume means more than half? 16+ home baked items he took for his lunch for one day. Honestly what a greedy pig! Utterly selfish. I could understand if he took one of each item (4) but most of them 🤯 is disgraceful when he was well aware of your child’s party/play date happening today.

I feel you @Birump I came down this morning to find dh had eaten one of the cupcakes I've made for a fundraiser. 36 cupcakes to go in 6 boxes. So will now be one box down.

Although in his case I do bake a lot, and he said he realised as soon as he bit into it, it wasn't a house cake, and was very sheepish when admitting it this morning.

But I'd be well pissed at your dhs attitude. A mistake is one thing but he's just being an arse.

He’s totally in the wrong, the fact he took them all, not just a couple.

I would turn it back on him, and tell him he’s either greedy, selfish or stupid. Which one? Because it’s definitely one of them. And none are a good look.

Don’t let him turn this around on you and say it’s your fault because it isn’t. Not reasonable, intelligent person would do this.

You are not unreasonable for being fuming. Very unfair of DH. He should def bring the baking home.

You are unreasonable for not posting a photo of jam slags or explaining where the name came from 😆

@LongLostSock that's an easy fix 😅 he's buying the first box 😬🤣

So if he’s taken most which means more than half, he’s planning to eat 5 sausage rolls, 5 scotch eggs, 5 jam things
and 5 brownies? What a greedy bastard! What does he do for a job?

He actually suggested this, he'd make a donation and keep the 5 😆

So he won't bring them back but expects you to rustle up a replacement?

Does he do things like this often?

I’d be annoyed too if my hubby took jam slags to work 😂

I’d make him bring them back home

Well, she could post a picture of the jam slags if her husband hadn't stolen them all!!

Can we have a pic of your jam slags to see what they are please OP? So intrigued!

P.s husband is a dick

That’s a really shitty thing to do. Of course he knew, he just didn’t care.

on a side note, I’ve never heard of a jam slag either.

He's a keeper!

He's trying to sabotage you, sounds like he's done it before as well
He's not on your team
Really think about this

He was a complete jerk to take stuff like that. There are always posts like this and I hate it when women excuse the selfish entitled behaviour of men. NAMALT

But I do have complete sense of humour failure about "jam slags", I'm afraid. Please tell me your children don't call them that?

How many kids coming? You said it's NOT a party but a play date

8 kids to a play date?
