Roommate doesn’t listen🙄

So I’m living in an apartment on campus and I have one roommate. I always buy most of the groceries and were supposed to split it and she never replaces what she eats of mine. It get cold in the apartment and she turns the heat up to 80 when I told here that we have a certain allowance for electricity each month. I’m okay with her eating what I cook but she always eats the last of it which I think is rude bc she didn’t even put in any effort to make it. And not to mention I told her the very beginning of the year to not use silverware in the brand new pots and pans that I bought and was nice enough to share and she used a metal spoon in one last night and now the nonstick part is scratched up. I guess my question is how do I address ALL of this ?

If she absolutely won’t listen to telling her not to eat her food then Maybe buy food that she hates (temporarily) that way if she didn’t want yours she has to buy her own. Put a fucking sticky note on the thermostat that says “ “x amount of dollars to change it from x degrees”. Then write a bill for her for the end of each month. Make sure it includes that she owes “x amount of dollars for the groceries” “x amount of dollars for the electric bill”

have a conversation with her. sometimes what seems like common sense to us isn’t common sense to others. she might not have a clue that she’s doing this because you probably never addressed it to her. be calm but serious. if she doesn’t like it the tell her she has to buy her own food or she’ll need to move🤷🏾‍♀️ good luck lmao

Put down the ultimatum. She can’t show basic respect and chip in, she’s not your roommate.
