Crepes

Through the guys at the treehouse we've had the good fortune of meeting some great international students/interns who couchsurfed at the guys place when they first came over.  Recently Arthur and Anna Marie have been having us over for a French tradition - crepes.  They start with a very thin pancake made of buckweat and are stuffed with various delicious fillings like egg, mushroons, ham, leeks, onions etc.  After dinner they make dessert crepes with Nutella or honey or lemon and sugar.  Jeanette got a chance to learn the tricks of the trade and made some pretty good ones if you ask me.  Really neat to be exposed to these traditions from other cultures.
