I’ve been doing keto for a few months now and I feel amazing. Husband has been supportive for the most part and is glad I feel so much better but refuses to give up junk himself. Fine, his choice, I’m not going to nag him.
But he’s been fussing at me because I don’t bake anymore. I’ve tried using keto sweets recipes but I’ve decided to give up because frankly they taste like crap and I’ve noticed that even fake sweets make me feel not so great afterwards.
I see no reason why I should cook things I’m not going to eat. He says I should take pity on the rest of them (meaning him and our adult daughter) and supply them with baked goods. I pointed out that I did not pop out of the womb knowing how to bake and he could learn like I did if he wants brownies. He says I complain when he uses the kitchen. I agree that I do, because he doesn’t clean up after himself. He says if I don’t want the kitchen messed up I should handle the baking myself.
Just. Grrr.
Am I being unreasonable by refusing to spend my time baking crap that I’m not going to eat? He has more free time than I do. But he’s also blowing our grocery budget every month making multiple trips to the store for chocolate and root beer and white sandwich bread.
