Hey y’all, happy Monday. I know it’s Monday because I have a job that hasn’t been canceled, for that I am grateful. You know what else I am grateful for? Crepes. Crepes are one of my favorite things ON EARTH. They are light, lovely bits of heaven on a breakfast plate. You can have them…
Raise your right hand. Stand on your left leg. Hop in a circle and say “I solemnly swear to never share Rachel’s Super-Top-Secret Double Chocolate Chipper Cookie Recipe. Ever.” Well done!
