Woman Hides Cobbler-Pie From Her Roommates After They Take Her for Granted

I moved out of my parent's house for the first time when I started university. When I arrived at the dorms, I made sure to clean every square inch of that filthy apartment since I had no idea how the previous tenants—a group of teenage boys—had managed to live in such a filthy space. When my roommates arrived, I introduced myself and apologized ahead of time since I'm not much of a chef and won't be able to help with the cooking.

The story below involves a woman who aspires to get better in the kitchen but keeps getting discouraged and questioned by her roommates. OP made the bold decision to prepare a delicious meal for herself and her fellow roommates. But as soon as she walked into the kitchen and began slaving away on each of the dishes, her roommates began sneaking in and selecting some other meal to satisfy their hunger. However, instead of admitting defeat and giving up, OP finished the food preparation and came up with a clever plan to exact revenge on her friends for their lack of support. So, to all of you aspiring chefs and cooks (don't worry, I haven't forgotten about you), scroll down and enjoy the story! And when you're done, check out a story about a couple that refuses to vacate parking space until further notice!

    Background: my roommate is a really good cook. I grew up on super bland food so it really doesn't take much to impress me and they make fun of me for it often. I'm Hella lazy and before they moved in ate mostly stuff I could microwave bc too lazy to

    cook and I have serious issues with doing dishes. They used to cook 2 to 3 times a week, sometimes more sometimes less. They've been here about 9 months and I've actually cooked a meal about 5 times. They had some of my first meal, and didn't even try any of them after

    that(even though each one was completely different from the last). I've made baked goods a handful of times and they usually eat a large portion of that. I like to make cornish hens for Christmas dinner. Been doing it on

    and off for about 10 years, I've gotten pretty good. Before I even got the stuff I asked if they would eat it, they said maybe they might not even be here for chirstmas. Today, I told them to tell me if they were heading to being hungry in the afternoon so I could start

    earlier. They said they are always hungry(which is kinda true j kis almost always eating they should be big as a house but aren't). About halfway through cooking they came in for a snack and ate some chips, I said it's only about 20 more mins, are you going to eat it? They

    got an attitude and said yes. And that they are definitely going to have some of the cobbler I had made earlier in the day. Literally 5 minutes before it's ready they come in and start toasting bread and butter. I'm like, dude it's gonna be ready in five minutes. Do

    you plan on eating this because if not I can invite another friend over? They got an even bigger attitude all, f k yes I'm going to eat. Chill out, mer mer mer. I'm like, alright. Everything gets done, I plate up my portion, knock on their door to let them know it's finished.

    I was already out of the kitchen but heard them plating up and then go back to their room. When I get done, I go back to the kitchen and this mother f ker had taken ONE cornish hen LEG, not enough green beans for me to notice any

    they weren't going to eat from the beginning, I could have had someone else come and enjoy it with me because I know they have a history of not eating my cooking, only my baked goods.

    So, knowing they were going to come looking for the cobbler, I hide that s t. We have a beverage fridge in the garage, there aren't and haven't been any drinks in it in a few weeks and they don't really go out there now that it's cold, so I

    stuck the whole dish in there. Sure enough, about 30 to 45 minutes later, they come out to the kitchen. I hear them clean their plate, and then start opening stuff looking for the cobbler. They were all, man is all the cobbler gone? I said, you didn't eat the meal you don't

    deserve the dessert. They were expectedly saying that was ridiculous. I told them, if they had just said they weren't going to eat it so I could invite someone over it wouldn't have been an issue. And they've been in their room throwing a fit since.

    I'll eat the cobbler and the left overs for the next few days while I fully expect them to be a vindictive for at least 2 days, but it felt amazing taking that away from them when they couldn't be a decent human being for once.

    edit to add: I forgot to mention that I asked what was wrong with the hen for them to not eat it. This b ch had the audacity to say that it was just to hot. I've witnessed this a hat gobble piping hot food and whine because they burned themselves on *multiple* occasions.
