So mad at dh

Dh made me so mad lastnight.  Here I told you guys I had an urge to cook Christmas goodies.  I have been debating and thinking about it instead of rushing out and just doing it.  On Friday night we went grocery shopping.  I put flour in my cart thinking I would bake some goodies for my family.  I haven't done it in a few years and I think it would bring a smile to thier faces.  So my dh see's the flour in the cart and asked me what that was for.  I told him I'm going to bake.  He immediately picked it up and put it away.  He said that it was too tempting for me and we didn't need any junk in the house.  I thought this was very sweet.  So I've been trying to find other activities to do with the kids, etc.

Last night his mother called.  All the sudden I saw him get this little puppy dog face and whined to her.."are you going to send us any goodies this year, I want some".  GRRRRRRRRRRRR   Needless to say he really made me mad.  Not only did he just invite stuff in the house (which was HIS idea in the first place, I actually was okay with it), but I also felt like he didn't like my baking (which I have to say he's never even tasted because I've given it up for years).  He loves my cooking, but that hurt.  I ignored him all night last night, I was just so mad.  Not only that but now the kids are going to see grandmas stuff and not mine.  So what did he say this morning...."go buy yourself some flour today".  GRRRRRRRRR   He just didn't get it.  I just felt like throwing the nearest object at him.

Hunny, boys are dumb.  Just accept it and act accordingly.   Did you explain what he did to him?  Did you explain how his request for Mom's goodies just contradicted the "returning the flour" episode?   Explain it to him and let it go.  It looks like you're going to have goodies in the house so if you still feel like baking, pick up some flour.  After the holiday is over, send the kids to school with the left over cookies to share with their friends.  The sooner they're out of the house, the better.

Pardon me?

Except you, Love. :)

Ha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I thought some male interjection was necessary... I may have to chime in again if yall get too rowdy!

Men can be extremely dense sometimes.  Janina had great advice, tell him how his comments made you feel, but then move on.  Sometimes no matter how many times we might explain something, they just won't get it. IF you feel like baking, go get that flour.  That way the kids can try some of your homemade goodies, including hubby, and see what a wonderful baker you are.

On the other hand.... maybe he thought if there was just one plate of goodies he could scarf it down before you ever saw it....  this would allow him to have some - without causing you to stumble. FOR ME -  it would be easier to stop eating them if the one plate ran out than if I was baking them myself... lemme see...  I need 12 dozen to give away...  made 12....  oops ate 2.... need to make 2 more... recipie makes 4 dozen.....  oh goodie....  2 extra munch munch munch... LOL  I dont bake them myself - but have a few each Wednesday night at moms.....   dont kill him - he was trying to help, whether he succeeded or not.

Men are definately from Venus...women from Mars! Doesn't he realize that getting goodies from mom will cause him to NOT get "goodies" from wifey!  He just shot himself in the foot (or whatever you want to call it). Geezzzz!

Ha, I like that one.
