Someone's taken credit for anonymous treat!

[Monstersinked]

Quick silly one but not sure what to do.

Friend has had a hard time so I've sent them a cream tea type surprise treat. Left the card anonymous but she finds it difficult to receive without reciprocating and I wanted her to have something just for her with no strings, to cheer her up.

She posts it on social media, another Friend (I don't know) comments, saying enjoy, glad you like, you deserve it type thing

My friend says ahhhh was it you, youre amazing

Other friend says wink wink it's anonymous so I guess you'll never know

Now, to me there alluding it was then. Taking all the bloody credit. I know I didn't send it for credit or even thanks but I'm a little pissed off!

Teens. Out loosing their religio

And annual leave 😛

People like this are never friends in tge true sense of the word. A true friend would deny it. You're right to be pd off.

Don’t waste a day’s holiday on mumsnet!!

@Beetrootlover82 I have 4 more days left but they are looking very booked up with walking and lunching with friends so the monumentum will wain! I will be handing over the baton later.

I have completely neglected to do any washing, tidying and haven't spoken to Dh all weekend but what can I say, gotta live in the moment.

Please don't start! I ruined my diet yesterday and now you mention crumpets?! And now I want one. So bad. I need a buttered crumpeeeet!!!

I had an affogato at an Italian place the other day and it also had a shot of Amaretto and some amaretto biscuits in it. It was a bit much to be honest. Much prefer the original version. First had one years ago in Spain - their McDonalds do/did them.

Loving the idea of an amaretto addition! Will need to try that next time I have friends round for dinner

I resisted!

i am going for a run soon, and tempted to pick up the scones on the way home. Although kind of cancels out the run. Told DH about this thread and he is also craving a cream tea too.

prosecco and strawberry jam sounds amazing and id have definitely bought if seen. Thanks for the heads up!

Genius

What's the joke? Too many posts and I can't find it.

I’d definitely call her out publicly ;o)

I appreciate that those in the USA may not get the whole "cream tea" thing - so I wanted to share a story of a visit there.

A lovely little restaurant by a lake was selling "popovers" with jam and cream. British me assumed that "popover" was US for scone - but no.

A "popover" is actually a Yorkshire pudding!! They were serving what was effectively a cream tea with Yorkshire pudding instead of scones!

I saw these in Maine! A travesty!

@AprilSmiles - yes, I was in Maine too, on MDI

I may or may not have tried this with a couple of leftover Yorkshires the other weekend!

Try Yorkshire with golden syrup and vanilla ice cream- lush!

Eat them with Lard? :D

@Binglebong takes me back to my childhood, Yorkshire with golden syrup and cream, Sunday teatime treat with my grandparents.

I have just been idly googling to figure out what to do with the wild garlic that came in my veg box and came across your thread - it will therefore have to be Donal Skehan's Wild Garlic and Cheddar scones, and tomorrow's dinner will be homemade tomato and basil soup with cheese scones! Thanks OP and your cheeky cow of a friend, without whose creamy fuckery we wouldn't have this glorious thread.

I'm from Yorkshire (as previous mentioned once or twice) and there's a ice cream parlour/farm shop that calls its self after where I'm from with some yummy included into their name too.

I'm not far from there @Monstersinked

I do believe the "joke" is

Its only pronounced Scone (S K ON) when yo have finished eating it :)

@ThatFraggle here you go😊

Thanks both of you!

@ThatFraggle

The joke is, "What's the fastest cake in the world?

Scone"

I'd forgotten all about this thread and wondered why Tesco had no Gluten free scones this afternoon, it's you lot, you started a run on Scones.
