Starting the Year Off Right With Crepes

So on January first, when we did not have any work we decided to start the year off right. So we woke up late (8:30 in the morning- oh blessed day!!!!) and we made crepes and as you can see, we succeeded with style. Along with the crepes you will note that there are grapes, pomegranate, bananas and strawberries in sugar and cream (we were trying to use up cream because we found cream on sale for 39 cents per pint and we went a little overboard in our excitement, buying four pints in total). In addition to the fruity goodness, Michael Tobler made a simple and delicious custard.

you make the custard with the following
2 cups milk
1/2 cup sugar
2 tsp corn starch
2 beaten eggs
1 tsp vanilla
just a little bit of salt
dash of cinnamon if you want
heat the milk, sugar, salt, and corn starch and scald the milk while whisking. When scalded,  remove from heat and add a little of the milk mixture to the eggs and stir it in. When it is homogeneous (well as close as you can get it) add this to the pot of the rest of the milk mixture and continue heating. Cook for several minutes until it has thickened. Add vanilla and (if you want to be fancy, top with the cinnamon) enjoy!
