And no, he didn’t even call me when he told me he had cancer in November. I got a text for that!
So do you want to know what he was calling about? He called to ask me for a family recipe.
Rewind 4 years. I used to live with my dad. When packing up to move, I remember that he took his cookbook (well it was the family cookbook) and I took mine. I wanted that cookbook as it had sentimental value, but I knew he’d never let me have it, so I just took a few of the family recipes inside that were on loose pieces of paper. (I was pissed that he didn’t even tell me that he gave up the lease and that I’d have to find another place to live.)
So now he wants one of the recipes that I have. But, the book is MIA. Actually I know where the book is. It’s in a landfill, courtesy of the psychopath he married. (She’s an insanely jealous person.) She wanted him to purge his life of everything that was before her. So really, if you think about it, my thievery saved the family recipes. <takes a bow> Thank you very much!
The recipe he wants is for the holiday weekend. I know as he just asked for it, plus it has expensive ingredients.
He could ask one of our relatives for it, but he’s pissed them all off, too.
I’m not sure how I’ll handle the issue in the future. I’m ready to cut ties at this point as his phone call caused a major meltdown. He won’t contact me unless he wants something. I set the ball in motion on Tuesday for cutting remaining legal ties with him. This may take a few months.
I would like to tell him that he got the cookbook in the move, and that if he can’t find it, then his wife likely threw it away. I’ll let him search for it before I contact him again. And then when he says he can’t find it, I’ll let him know that I took my favorite recipes because they were FAMILY recipes that wouldn’t mean anything to him as he was running away from our family. I will pound into his head that his psycho wife threw the family cookbook away out of jealousy. And then I’ll point out that it was me who cared enough to save the damn family recipes.
Why should she get to eat something made from a recipe that she would have thrown away had it still been in the family cookbook?
Well, Dad, I guess it was the family favorite recipe that made me realize I need to cut ties with you. I just can’t do this anymore.
