Every month I spend a full Sunday doing meal prep for us. I plan out the recipes the week before and do one big grocery run on Saturday, usually about $190. Then Sunday morning to Sunday night I’m in the kitchen cooking and portioning everything into containers. 30 meals go into the chest freezer, all labeled, and that’s what we eat on weeknights for the month.

My husband’s sister had her baby a few weeks ago. She came over last Thursday with the baby so we could finally meet her. I was still at work when she got there.

When I got home my husband told me his sister looked really exhausted and he’d packed up a bunch of the meals from the freezer and sent her home with them so she wouldn’t have to worry about cooking for a while. I said that was really sweet and didn’t think anything of it.

Monday I went to grab dinner and half the freezer shelf was empty. I went through the labels and counted. He’d given her 15 of the 30.

I asked him why he didn’t check with me first. He said she needed them right then and we still had enough to get through 2 weeks. I told him that’s not really the point, I spent a full day making those and now I have to do the whole thing over again in the middle of the month which I have literally never had to do.

He offered to help me make more this weekend. He’s never made a single meal in 4 years. I’ve never once seen him use anything in the kitchen besides the coffee maker and the microwave.

I told him he’s replacing all 15 himself. I’ll buy the groceries and write out every recipe but he’s the one cooking them. He gave away an entire day of my work and he can find out what that actually takes.

His mom called me that night to say I’m being petty over some damn food. AITA?

Psychology 1 in 3 American boys aged 13 to 17 follows Andrew Tate at least a little, and those who do are more likely to believe men should hide their emotions, be dominant and reject anything feminine. But the strongest predictor wasn’t Tate at all - it was parents telling their sons to be big and tough.

Yes $3 isn’t a lot of money, but it’s way more than what a single hashbrown is worth.

Edit: holy shit relax people. I didn’t notice the price until after I ordered. God forbid a guy wants a hashbrown to go with his McGriddle.

Edit 2: Y’all too funny getting so upset about this. Thanks for the interactions!! 🤣

Bravo to this sister for standing her ground. I'm sure the WW's husband was grateful too.
