Today, I spent 4 hours making a cheesecake for my brother's girlfriend, which she begged me for a week to make. After my oven breaking and having to buy a new hand mixer, she tells me she's not going to eat it because this morning she decided to try being a vegan because, "it sounds interesting." FML

Today, after working all day to make a big vegan meal for my family, hoping it would get them to become vegans as well, my brother thought it appropriate to pass around a block of cheese for everyone to grate over the pasta dish. FML

Eventful day

Today, my boyfriend and I got into a fight after the gym. Then, a cheesecake I'd baked for a client cracked all the way through. Then, my oven broke as I was trying to make a new one, so I left to bake it at a friend's house, at which point I locked my keys and all of my supplies inside my car. FML

Today, I woke up early and spent hours baking and icing a three-tier cake for my friend's eighteenth birthday, which is this evening. I just found out my mother threw it in the compost bin because she's on a diet and it was "tempting" her. FML

Bake off

Today, it's my three month anniversary with my girlfriend and so I decided to bake her a cake from scratch. It took me three hours, a call to my mom, three different recipe books, and half my pantry. On the way to her house, I stopped to pick up flowers and left the cake in the car. It melted. FML

Today, I spent two hours painstakingly making a berry tart for my best friend. As I was taking it out of the oven, the glass dish slipped from my hands and shattered all over the kitchen floor. Now I have no tart and I owe her housemate a new dish. FML

Today, I spent hours baking a multi-layered, detailed cake from scratch for my mom's birthday. It took two seconds for my dog to devour the cake while I picked up a spoon I dropped on the floor. FML

The cake from hell

Today, I tried to bake a cake for my friend's birthday. It turned out looking more like a science experiment gone wrong than a cake. FML

Today, I spent hours baking an apple pie to impress my future mother-in-law. I was especially proud of the fact I'd made the crust and filling myself. When I served it to her, she picked off the crust and, between mouthfuls, bitched that it was nothing like canned pie filling. FML

Attention to details

Today, I spent hours cooking dinner for my date. When they arrived, they told me that I'd probably not paid much attention to their dating profile, as it clearly mentioned that they were vegan, and thus couldn't eat any of the food I'd prepared. FML

Today, my sister convinced my girlfriend that I cheated on her. All because I took the first slice of her birthday cake. FML

More for you, and now you have an excuse not to make her anything else. Sounds like a win/win to me!

And that's how you get people to never ever do you any favors again. :) If it's any consolation, the oven would have broken either way and it never hurts to own kitchen appliances - and also you know right away that she's a fluke before it involved anything more serious than a cake.

Sounds like the opposite of an FML. You suddenly have to eat a lot of cheesecake? And you want me to feel sorry for you?

Now you get it all to yourself, sounds fine to me.

you can do 2 things, eat all the cake yourself or with your partner/friend. OR you could get a little revenge by throwing it in her face or be creative, take bits of cake and place them in her shoes, clothes that she wont use for a few days. it is satisfying to see horror of the aftermath with all your hardwork. dont let your hard work go to waste. eat it all yourself with friends n family or be a bit of a revengeful prick. it is harmless and gets your point across.
