My mother in law told me my sourdough looked 'rustic' and I still can't let it go

She came over for dinner 3 months ago and I spent all day baking a loaf from my starter I'd been feeding for six weeks. She took one look at it and said 'oh, how rustic' in that tone that means it's ugly. Then she spent 10 minutes telling me about her friend who buys $8 artisan bread from a bakery downtown. Has anyone else had a family member totally miss the effort you put into something?

Brought my homemade kombucha to Thanksgiving once. Big mistake.

Big mistake" is right - next time just bring a store-bought one and let people think you made it.
