French Crepes

Ok, Girls...... page 208 of The Sharper Your Knife!!! The very best crepes I have ever eaten. Ever.... even in Paris and Brittany. Ed and I decided it had become too chilly to really do any kind of work, and I had seen that crepe recipe earlier in the day and it'd stuck in my mind. Home we came from the farm and whipped them up. The batter even smells delicious. And while you are cooking them your kitchen smells decadent. We didn't have Nutella (I can't eat it anyway) so we put a variety of toppings. Ed ate 4 and I had 2. Three left over for snacking tonight! Try banana-powdered sugar-lemon juice and strawberry jam. That was my favorite. But there's just no end to the creative crepery one could launch into. What fun! I sent a big thank you through the universe to Kathleen for writing the book and also a more local thank you to Maggie for picking the book. Bon, bon, bon!

Oh I'll be trying them with Nutella! Crepes are Derek's forte! And with a good recipe the sky's the limit! I haven't picked what recipe to try yet.

I'm thinking of doing the leg of lamb. Have never cooked one. Yes, I remember waking up on a Sunday morning to the smell of fresh crepes...blueberry filling, being patiently prepared by my nine-year-old son, Derek.
