Should I write about the cream puffs I made from scratch and ate HALF OF yesterday? See what happens when you open your cookbooks in an effort to be more "
natural" and "healthy"? See what happens when your cookbook haphazardly flops open to a picture of absolutely delicious chocolate cream puffs? Did you know that I
cannot eat just 1 or 2 cream puffs? Did you know that these are one of my
honest-to-gosh weaknesses? (
Dove mini-caramel-milk-chocolates are my other...) Do you wonder why I am not posting a picture of the other half of the decadent chocolatey cream puffs? Because they're in the freezer.
Under the chicken. Out of my sight (but not out of my mind since I'm writing an entire paragraph about them, dammit.) Because if I were to dig them out and snap a picture, I'd have to take out 1 to munch on. And then another. And, before you'd know it, the entire container would be GONE before Patrick even knew it existed.
I swear to God. But, I promise you, they ARE AWESOME. And Chocolate. And... Awesome. Shit. Now I REALLLLLY want one!!!

Me Luuvvv Chocolate!!!
I feel like the cookie monster half the time!!!! I feel you on the bathing suite thing.... Maybe next year :)
You can not just post about these things and not include the recipe!
If your anything like me you put it in the freezer so the kids don't get at it and you are sure to have some later on.
Oh, c'mon. Go ahead. You're too thin anyway, right?
mmmm cream puffs. I only manage to bake when I open cook books. This is why I should never open a cook book again.
HA! This is me!!!! I have been OBSSESSED!!!!! with these mini chocolate covered cream puffs from the store and I ate the whole freaking box in one sitting! What is the matter with me??? Cripes!
Cream puffs. HOMEMADE cream puffs. I am so totally impressed and hungry that I can barely type.
I don't think I have ever had a creme puff...I guess Im a wacko!
Swimsuit season is still aways away right?
Leah, it's so easy it's crazy. I'll put it on later.
FYI, it's now 5:17 and I have eaten 2 of the frozen ones. The rest are awaiting my lips for when the kids are distracted. I have NO WILLPOWER.
You know, I would probably do the same thing faced with my absolute weakness(chocolate!). LOL
So don't feel bad-Your not alone!
You know what Tracey? Even though you told me they're UNDER THE CHICKEN, I STILL want one. That's really saying something about my commitment to sabotaging my diet.
This is why I don't bake: Because I WILL eat every last tasty goodie! Good luck with those cream puffs!
The only way I would be able to resist that temptation is to get them out of the house. Or eat them all and then they'd be gone and out of temptation's way. But then the damage would be done. So, either way I'm screwed. Enjoy your cream puffs!
PS - You skinny thing, you'll still look great in your swimsuit!
I hear you. Last night I made a chocolate cake and ate half of it myself.
Then I had no room for dinner. Snacking right before dinner - sigh - It's one of the privileges of being a grownup ;-)
haha I had a similar thing happen involving homemade truffles. I made Jeff take them to work.
mmmm... cream puffs!
Now I want to make a special trip to the store for those Dove chocolate caramel things. Man, those are divine.
And can you mail cream puffs? Because I could do you a favor and take them off your hands for you ...
Mmmmmmmmm......
Now I'm hungry.
I'm laughing about you waiting til the kids are distracted to eat more. I've been known to hide the chocolate in the veggie drawer around here- because NOBODY but me will go in there.
Is it wrong for me to wear my maternity swimsuit this summer?
I just found your blog and love it! Your a "tell it like it is" kinda girl. Keep the fun post coming.
OMG, cream puffs! No, wait, chocolate cream puffs!!! Shut up. Now I'll be craving cream puffs for days, dammit.
i know all about the hiding stuff in the freezer thing! shoot, i have some lemon bars tucked away in there at this very moment. because they are way way too dangerous!
thanks for coming by my blog and commenting!
much appreciated.
: )
Hmmm . . . I guess we're just going to have to take your word for it. :-)
