So glad you’re connected again! And don’t you just love how kids say stuff like that? ha. I adore cream puffs – and find them quite easy and fun to make!

YAY seems like they finally fixed your internet that’s great! I don’t particularly like it when people invite themselves over to stay… And when they’re not polite too lol the fact that you walked up to him reminds me of when I walked up to my dad’s friend and asked him very loudly in front of others ‘why do you have a really big black dot on your forehead?!?’ the whole room went quiet lol because that was actually a birth mark and that man was very embarrassed…gosh i’m kinda embarrassed too hehe thinking about it 😛

Hilarious Charlie. Sometimes kids don’t always say the polite things, but they can say what’s needed to be said.

I hope your internet troubles are far behind you, Charlie. These puffs look delicious and I love how direct little people can be. I changed my hairstyle a little while ago and my 7 year old niece said “Auntie Eva, what happened to your hair!” I suspect she liked the old style better!

Thanks John. And you’ve come up with a great idea. Perhaps I should have been sending off my manuscripts with food parcels – that could be the missing link xx

Sometimes children’s honest words are so welcome! The cream puffs look terrific.

Thanks so much for the award Deeps, I’m very honoured and sorry it’s taken me so long to get back to you. My server went down and so I’ve been without the ability to blog – very frustrating.

I don’t think I was born with tact and diplomacy inbuilt either….so practice, practice, practice.
The cream puffs look brilliant….no diplomacy required there 🙂

Oh dear. I’m known to suffer from foot-in-mouth even to this day and my eldest is the same. My heart goes out to her when she wonders why those who profess to prefer honesty don’t like it when it comes their way.

I enjoy cream puffs and these are very lovely, Charlie. I agree with Carolyn (above) – she must have been VERY proud of you who stood up and said it. I am like your mom who has complaints but no guts to say it. Do you still see him and talk about that time?
