“Thank you” he said, wrapping the second tissue around the small stack of slightly soggy crumpets. “That’s really sweet of you.” He looked at me, “this is the sort of thing I’ll still remember in 10 years..” He paused and looked briefly at his feet before looking up again, “..I wonder what I’ll be remembered for, 10 years from now..”
Many, many thanks to Amy for her patience and company while I fried my very first homemade crumpets until the early hours of the morning – I’ll remember this too 🙂
Yes please, I’ll take as many as you can spare!
Too late (my bad) they’re all gone now..
If you try making them yourself I would recommend making one batch at a time, as the recipe says, and not doubling it, the batter is really hard to mix..
I’ve never been able to buy the right sized holes to make decent crumpets!
Oh! That’s tragic!
