crepes

made crepes for the first time last night. have to admit they were really easy. got my batter mixed together brushed my crepe pan with melted butter and ladled some of the batter into the pan and out came a beautiful fragrant crepe. oh and of course i drizzled a little grand marnier on top of the crepe before i spooned the strawberries in the middle and folded it in a fold, and i drizzled a little more grand marnier on top of the crepe topped it with powdered sugar and a dollop of freshly whipped cream. and it was wonderful, fabulous, sumptuous, out of the world i can go on and on and on.
