CHRISTMAS MORNING CREPES






Fruity for Breakfast, Savory for Brunch, Sweet for Dessert


Ingredients

2 cups flour
Pinch salt
2 tbsp. butter, cut into chickpea-sized pieces
6 tsp. sugar (I used a natural sweetener, Truvia) 
4 eggs
2 1/2 cups milk
olive oil
fillings (dark chocolate morsels, maple syrup, honey, jellies, blackberries, apples, etc. You can also do a cheeses or meats instead of sweet)


Instructions

    • 1
      Put all of the dry ingredients into a bowl. Add the eggs and milk and stir briefly with a spoon. Mix with a hand mixer until the batter reaches a syrupy consistency.
    • 2
      Pour a tablespoon of vegetable oil into a non-stick pan and smear it with a paper towel. Keep the oiled paper towel handy for use between every three or four crepes. Heat the pan at high heat for about 2 minutes, then lower it to medium heat.
    • 3
      Pour a ladle full of batter into the pan and move the pan in a circular motion so that the batter spreads around. Flip the crepe after about one minute, when the first side is cooked. Cook the other side for about 20 seconds.
    • 4
      Add cheese, sugar, chocolate, fruit or other fillings.
    • 5
      Fold the crepe in half, then in half again in the other direction, to form a triangle.


      I found the recipe here and have tried it several times. Personally, I recommend making the batch the night before and refrigerate to save time. A very Merry Christmas to all of you out there! Stay safe out there,

D.I.Y. GIFT WRAP



This season is so busy and yet we want to make each gift we wrap special and adorable. This way takes about 3 minutes and yet looks all put together!

MATERIALS: wrapping paper, embroidery thread, thick tan paper (this is for the tags. I cut them in circles and punched a hole), stamp + ink pad, pen, scissors, tape

INSTRUCTIONS: 1. Wrap your present. 2. Stamp a word, greeting, or design onto the tag. 3. Cut your thread about double the length of the present. 4. insert thread ends through tag and wrap around to the back and tie a knot (cut loose ends). 5. I wrote on the back of the tag who it was to and from.

And that's it! :D Hope you all are having a merry Christmas!
