[...] was THE BEST POUND CAKE I EVER HAD THE PLEASURE OF EATING. As someone who doesn’t even love sweets that much, this was perfectly sweet, but not rich. The cake was moist (MOIST!) and even three days [...]

Simple solution which serves as revenge and teaches a lesson:

1)Buy 6 pack of tate’s favorite beer and place in fridge.
2)On arrival from very hard day at work, offer the offender with a bottle of beer from the aforementioned 6 pack
3) Wait the next day, and drink his beers. When disapproval occurs, remind him of the “free pickings” law he put in place.

You’ll find your B&J’s untouched in the future. I charge no fee for that exert of brilliance.

we do that, too. i give him the cheesiest doritos. and he eats his (or steals mine off my plate) w/ no regard to looking to see which one he should take.
he figures it’s my fault for not liking certain ones.

i’m with you.
i say if you have a preference and it’s expected that you could eat the whole pint, then… you should be able to. on your own timeline.

Just because you chose to savor your ice cream doesn’t mean he as any right to eat it. Your pint is your pint. Especially since he had his own.

Trust me, I know the rules on this because I am, like Tate, a pint inhaler and I am always jealous of those who eat theirs bit by bit and have a little bit of ice cream every day for a week.

Tell him to lay off your Chunky Monkey.

Jennifer,
I’m a stay at home mom with my own little Carson and Ella. I recently came across your blog and have been completely entertained as I’ve gone back and read your past entries. Your writing is so funny, and there’s something inspiring about seeing your words describing so many experiences and thoughts that are so similar to my own as a wife and mom. Thanks for sharing your life with us!

Oh you are SO in the right with this. That was YOUR icecream!!! He bought it for you to consume...there is no law that states you MUST eat it all at THAT minute! Shame shame on him! (don't you love being right?!) .-= Sarah´s last blog ..When you’re falling off the face of the earth- =-.

He bought it for YOU. It's YOURS. If he wants what you didn't eat, he should ASK FIRST, and then when you say "Yeah, I don't THINK so," he should go to the store and buy some more for himself. .-= Carrie´s last blog ..What day is it? =-.

WHAT?!?! He ATE YOUR PINT???

Smack him. HARD. That is a total violation of all codes. ESPECIALLY since you don’t like sweets! This means that the sweets you DO like are that more important to you.

It is really unfair that we can’t hide frozen foods. I mean, I hide chips and cookies all the time (though the little rugrats find my stash more than I care to admit) but the ice cream doesn’t fare too well when it’s shoved underneath the computer desk…
