This is what it looked like at our house tonight:
CREPES!
That’s right, folks. Jac’s a fan (the French club serves them up at STM’s Mardi Gras each year – it’s the only reason he attends) and was super stoked to try them out after seeing them in Martha Stewart Living this month (my man reads Martha. You got a problem with that?). Philip was excited to help.
But even more excited to try them. Nutella aka “Chocolate” makes everything awesome. He deemed them good – a 5 star rating from the pickiest in the house.
Philip’s concoction up close and personal. Looks delish.
Tess also deemed them edible.
Jac showed off his mad flipping skills – he’s been practicing on my omelets all week. He’s really good at it and it always garners cheers from his fans (that’s us).
Max made a valliant effort to try and pretend to like them. But he didn’t. That didn’t stop him from making a few, however.
More blueberries were eaten. Still the ones from Sam’s Club – I can’t say enough about them. They’re Dole – picked ripe, flash frozen (it’s what the package says). They aren’t all clumped up and freezer burned like the other kinds I’ve had tend to be. Not the “greenest” choice, I’m guessing, but I like that the kids eat something good for them without much of a fight. And I hear they’re good for the memory . . .maybe the boys will finally remember to lift the seat . . . it’s okay to dream, isn’t it?
A tasty ending to our week.
Annie, you are hilarious! And inspirational. Your family rocks.
Haha great entry! I love the love 🙂 It also makes me hungry for a crepe. It may not be in France, but the Italians do a decent job with them too…and would expect a tip for the flip!
Tip the man! Whatever it takes to get the goods – and lots of Nutella! 😉
