Woman astonished at playground mum's kitchen etiquette after she pops round

A woman was left astonished after a playground friend she had invited over to get out of the rain began cooking in her kitchen without permission.

The mum's little girl had made friends with a new girl in her class, and the women began to also form a friendship on the school run, reports the Mirror.

And so, when there was some nasty weather one day, the woman invited the fellow mum over for a cup of tea to avoid the storm.

When they arrived, the woman took an important phone call - and came back into the room to find quite the unusual situation in her kitchen - the new guest cooking some bacon.

Airing her anger on social posting forum Mumsnet, the anonymous woman wrote: " We had a storm one morning on the school run and as it was much closer to my house than hers I invited her back for a cuppa till the storm passed.

"I put the kettle onto boil and then went to the loo, then had to take an 'urgent' phone call from my eldest school for some reason or other, can't remember what exactly and it certainly wasn't an emergency."

As she left to take the call, she began to hear cooking noises, and then a sizzle like something inside a pan.

The woman continued: "When I went back downstairs she was frying bacon. She hadn't asked, I hadn't offered and it meant she had gone through my fridge and cupboards the first time she had been to my house.

"When I asked what she was doing she said she was hungry and hadn't eaten that day. Safe to say I didn't ask her to come back after that!"

What would you have done in that situation? Let us know in the comments below.
