For Thanksgiving, is it a big deal if you buy a dish from a store instead of making it from scratch?

This woman admits that she didn’t have the talent nor the time to make a dessert on her own, so she bought pies from the bakery and brought them to her aunt’s house.

She didn’t think it was a big deal, but her boyfriend sure did!

Read the story below for more details.

AITAH for not making a dessert?

I’m not a great cook or baker.

This year for thanksgiving, I went to a bakery and bought a couple of pies to bring to my aunts.

I had originally planned on making something, but figured the bakery would be easier.

Her boyfriend made a negative remark about her not making a dessert.

My boyfriend saw the pies in the fridge, and basically told me I was lame for not making a dessert.

I told him I didn’t have a ton of time, and I’m not a great baker.

And I didn’t think it was a big deal.

She believes she didn’t do anything wrong, but he just wouldn’t let it go.

He wouldn’t let it go, and said it was very unattractive and disappointing that I didn’t think it was a big deal.

I don’t think I did anything wrong.

I told him he was picking on me for no reason, and then he got upset with me.
