Her Day

I'm glad she gets one day out of 365.
I'm glad our culture pauses to say thanks to the woman who holds it together.
I'm glad Mr. Wonderful finally made me breakfast.

Happy Mother's Day to all the mamas out there! Thanks for all you do, for whenever you do it and for doing it even when you're bone tired. Your kids appreciate it. At least I do.

Also, thanks to Anna Jarvis and Hallmark for making this a day when women don't make breakfast. This morning Mr. Wonderful stepped up to the plate and served me homemade crepes. They were so tasty I think Mother's Day should happen more than once a year!

Any takers?

Have a Crepe Day!

Last night I went to bed and it was raining.  This morning I woke up and… it’s still raining!  Which makes five straight, exceedingly long days of rain.  To counteract this feeling a wet gloom, I grabbed eggs, butter, flour and milk and made crepes.  Nothing keeps depressing rain or the zombie apocalypse at bay than hot crepes.  Especially if they’re well dressed.

How to Dress a Crepe:

Step 1 Make crepes.

Step 2 Slather a hot one in jam—like strawberry, apricot, or fig. 

Step 3 Roll up the crepe.

Step 4 Eat the sucker while it’s still hot.

Step 5 Laugh at the zombies in the rain!  

Ha-ha!
