MY HUSBAND SECRETLY SENT THE LASAGNA I COOKED TO HIS BOYS’ CHAT — SO I TAUGHT HIM A HARSH LESSON.
When my husband, Dave, mocked my homemade lasagna behind my back, I decided to teach him a lesson. I’d spent hours preparing it, only for him to call it “barely edible” in a message to his friends, complaining about my cooking.
Hurt by his words, I shared the incident with his mom. She agreed to help me get back at him. She cooked all of Dave’s favorite dishes, but intentionally ruined them—over-salting, undercooking, and drying out the chicken. Then, she invited him over for dinner.
Dave eagerly dug in but quickly realized something was wrong as he tasted each dish. When his mom asked, “Is everything okay?” he stammered, “Uh, yeah, it’s just… not what I expected.” I stood in the doorway and confronted him about the message he sent, reminding him to be respectful about my hard work.
His mom chimed in, urging him to apologize, and I threatened to send photos of his mom’s cooking to his friends, just as he had with mine. Realizing his mistake, Dave apologized sincerely, and promised to appreciate my cooking more in the future.
