Only time for a quick post-yoga pre-bedtime post in this crazy busy week. We had our friends over for a fancy grown-up dinner party last night, and I made savoury crepes with lots of fixings.. cheese sauce, veggies, fried garlic mushrooms and onions, chorizo. It was the first time I have ever made crepes in my entire life (which was a little risky for a dinner party, but I like to live life on the edge, as you all know).
They turned out pretty well. We had about half a crepe left of batter, so I made a creative shape with the last one– we decided it looked like a squirrel hide, especially once the other side was all golden brown, a la Oregon Trail, for those of you who grew up in the West in the age of Apple IIe. (Just did a double take at that last sentence– I didn’t realize I had descended so far into nerddom.) Here’ s a pic:
