crepe with berries and peachestaido is the star breakfast cook at our house. his waffles and pancakes make weekly appearances on our table. it is a tradition we started with our pack of toddlers in seattle…dad makes breakfast or we have eggs and cereal. but the favorite breakfast is crepes. incidentally, my favorite breakfast growing up was crepes. my mom made them on saturday mornings. she had a crepe iron that she received as a wedding gift that she used for years, even coaxing it through its puttering end before it finally died. we had to hunt for a new one. they weren’t easy to find back then…no ebay, no bed, bath and beyond. i think we found it at a little specialty shop in the mall. so, when each of us (my sister, brother and me) got married, mother got us crepe irons. now we all serve up crepes to our kids regularly. we actually now have two crepe irons for our crew and taido has taken over the crepe making as part of his usual breakfast making routine, and he’s even adjusted the recipe to make it healthier. yay! they are most crepes for breakfastfrequently a saturday morning treat, served with berries and powdered sugar. today we had them oozing with fresh peaches and juicy blackberries, courtesy of our local csa. we gobbled them, i tell you. gobbled them up.
