Why did she throw it away what a waste. Could have put a portion in fridge for you to have later or freezer for a day when your late again. No wonder your food bill is so high if she's just wasting food.

I am speechless which doesn't happen very often!

That is petty and a waste of food. My husband worked erratic hours as a medical engineer sometimes not getting home until 9pm or 10pm.  I would just cover his meal up with a plate and microwave it when he got home.  You cannot expect to function if you are not eating properly.

Just had a thought. Tell her if she throws away a perfectly good meal again the cost of the meal and a takeaway will come out of her budget. A real petty thing to do. I told you I am rarely speechless.

Words fail me this morning, which as you have probably guessed is a rarity!

I honestly don't know how you put up with this behaviour. 

Not only the pettiness but the blatant waste of food when you are working to a strict budget.

This has to stop not only for your health but also if you are going to salvage this marriage!

Card 3 coming down nicely now. Today’s menu sounds good. In fact my breakfast and lunch are the same as yours today 😁

All looking good on the debt side RS. Glad you can really make some impact on the expensive CC3 now. Hopefully that should be gone by August.

The pennies savings accounts is building up nicely too.
