Monday evening 4pm
Two little kiddos jump from their school bus and run into the house. They freshen up and sit in front of the TV.......;)
As the clock ticks towards 4:30pm, the two little devils are involved in a crazy battle as to who gets the larger portion of the hot goodies that their mama would be getting in a short while from now!
U ask what? any guesses what they are......
...................Its a packet filled with some hot Egg Puffs..:D and this used to happen for almost 3 times a week for many many years... and we still fight!...:)
This is undoubtedly one of my fondest memories that I would cherish...and Off these yummy Egg puffs goes to Sarah's 'Tastes to Remember' event.

ReplyDeleteHi Siri... I am new on the foodie blogosphere. Noticed your egg puff recipe on Homemade's Tastes to Remember Roundup and pretty promptly pulled out the puff pastry from the freezer. Did you say fights over who got the bigger one??? Things came to blows at my place when I handed out a plate to the hubby and his brother!!! I made a few changes in my version - and will be posting it pretty soon on my blog. Thanks for such a quick (I am sucker for that) and mindblowingly great recipe!!!! And do visit my blog when you have the time.
ReplyDeleteegg puffs and cup cakes...reminds me of my school days!! yumm..
