Chocolate Eclairs on the first day of Summer

Yesterday was my official first day of Summer.
I chilled, watched a movie, cleaned my room (or started to...), and then made chocolate eclairs!
I was a bit uneasy about making them, because they're not under the "easy baking" category.
At least in my book they aren't...
But they actually turned out quite well!
I had about 5 on one cookie sheet of the pastries that ended up look like eclairs.
The other ones, the red headed step children of the eclair bunch, were flat and REALLY hard to put the filling (custard stuff) inside of them.
But boy oh boy. If I say so myself, they were yummy to my tummy.
I'll devour the rest very, very soon!

HAPPY SUMMMMMEEEERRRRRRR!!!!!!!!
