Chef Boo Boo.



They'd told me they were making this year's Christmas Cake, but they changed their minds.

Instead they made a Chocolate Cake, which Boo Boo thought was a much better idea, as he could have some with his Tea.

He's no fool our Boo Boo.


As all good chefs know, tasting is an important part of the process.


And when it was ready, the cake disappeared; Boo Boo took it home, and only left one tiny slice for me!

I shall be having words with him. (I believe The Christmas Cake will be made later today)

What about Bunny does he not take part in the cooking sessions with Nana.

Cro Magnon said...

This is Bunny; he's now known as Boo Boo. His little brother Mischa is still too small for cake making.

Susan Heather said...

Oh, does Mischa not have a nickname.

enjoy your grandson. Does he get home schooled? Go to school in France?.

Cro Magnon said...

'The Cherub'.

Cro Magnon said...

I think he may be going to school in Holland next year. Nothing is certain as yet. We are teaching him to read etc.

There is nothing like closeness to grandparents.

Cro Magnon said...

Boo Boo comes down to see us most days. We play games together, Lady M bakes with him, and we have a lot of fun. It's perfect.

Sue said...

Christmas cake or chocolate cake? Now there's a dilemma. Well, not really, chocolate cake please!

Alphie Soup said...

While Xmas cake has it's merits, I'm with Boo Boo. I'd take the chocolate cake home too.

You and Boo Boo would be best Kitchen mates.

Cro Magnon said...

I'm in the other camp; I like rich fruit cakes, the others are a bit too sweet for me.

Anonymous said...

Yes, I expect children will prefer chocolate cake. So Lady M will be making the Christmas cake later?

Cro Magnon said...

I believe so; dried fruits have been soaking in Armagnac and fruit juice overnight, so something is afoot.

I like the cake. In fact I'm a bit of a chocoholic on the quiet. Your blog page footer tells me I might also like Juncker. πŸ•·

Cro Magnon said...

One of the things I need to eat (apparently) for my high blood pressure, is good quality dark chocolate. I have no problem with that.

What's all this about you, me, and Juncker?? I see no ships!

Graham Edwards said...

Sad. Just one slice. Ah well, better for you than two slices - if only half as enjoyable.

Cro Magnon said...

The little I had was very good. I quite expect the rest has already gone.

Love for chocolate

Cro Magnon said...

Most children have it. I know I did when I was his age!

I am with your grandson. Nothing beats chocolate.

Cro Magnon said...

I haven't seen him this morning... maybe he's got stomach ache.

Gwil W said...

Juncker has gone. Harry and Megs are down there now. Certainly a lot of celebrities here! πŸ…πŸŽ–πŸ’„πŸ‘‘

Cro Magnon said...

I specialise in them.

Wish I lived next door, I love Chocolate cake.

New World said...

He beginning to look like at least one of his cousins in Oz is he not?

Cro Magnon said...

It was a goodie. I would have liked more.

Cro Magnon said...

I'm not sure, I think he looks like his Mum; Kellogg.

Joanne Noragon said...

Chocolate Boo-Boo cake outranks Christmas cake, any day.

Cro Magnon said...

The Christmas Cake is now made. There is still a lot of 'anointing' with Armagnac to be done, so it'll be a while before we taste it. Luckily I like both, but the CC is an 'institution', more than just a cake.
