CREPES!

Strawberry Crepes

**1 1/2 c. flour

**1 tBs Sugar

**1/2 tsp baking powder

**1/2 tsp salt

2 c. Milk

2 eggs

1/2 tsp Vanilla

2tBs butter, melted.

** Do First

Add the first 4 dry ingredients together, mix well.  Then add your liquids.  Batter should be runny.  In a frying pan, griddle, or pan of your choice, grease bottom of pan, heat between 4-5.  Pour your batter into a circle(like a pancake) and help it spread to be a thin circle.  These do not NEED to brown in order to be done, keep a close eye on them. 

Other ingredients: 

Diced fruit (I prefer strawberries and bananas) but you can do this with ANY fruit.

 --I usually add a little bit of white sugar to my fruit and stir it up!

Whipped Cream

--I usually make mine from scratch, I think it tastes better!

Powdered sugar (if desired.)

Softened butter

Assembly Instructions:

First, lay out your fresh hot crepe.  Spread a small amount of butter over crepe, and either sprinkle powdered sugar or white sugar over it, then add your fruit.  Next, add a dollop of whipped cream, and roll up!  Add a few more spoonfuls of fruit and whipped topping on top and you are SET!  Enjoy!

This Recipe makes about 12 crepes.

Salsa and More Salsa!

I like to say,  Salsa.

Over the break, Ricky's parents were able to make it up for a nice visit.  Of course, we decided to make Mexican one night, and I had to snag some photos of the salsa. 

Here are some tips when making fresh salsa:

*Be sure to use a nice, sharp knife when dicing ingredients

*The smaller you are able to dice & chop everything, the better.

*Using a food processor WILL work, but the texture is not the same.  If you have the time, chop by hand.

*Be careful when dicing Jalapeños, to not touch the seeds(that is the hottest part) or itch your eyes.
