Crepes have been a part of my families Christmas tradition since I was old enough to make them myself. Every Christmas Eve' we get together, I make the crepes, and everyone fills his or hers with the things that sound good to them. We like hot fudge, raspberry pie filling, lemon curd, or for my husband and brother-in-law, lemon juice and powdered sugar.
When you make these, bear in mind that the first crepe of the batch almost always needs to be thrown away. Call it a test crepe and don't feel bad about it. Other than that, crepes can be easy, fancy, and yummy. I hope you enjoy making these as much as you do eating them.
