With Love, Meghan - Savoring Spring One Crepe at a Time
Crepe Recipe:
Ingredients -
1 cup Flour
2 Tbsp Sugar
1/2 tsp Salt
1 and 1/4 cup milk
4 Tbps butter, melted
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
2 Large Eggs
Filling:
Preserves and fresh fruit of your choice!
Instructions:
Combine wet into dry. Blend with an immersion blender.
Cook on medium heat in a shallow pan.
Add butter and spoon in crepe mixture with ladle, making a thin, wide circle.
Cook for 1 minute on each side, or until preferred doneness. Then flip.
Remove from heat and fold crepes in half. Add your favorite preserves or toppings like Nutella. (I like to add plain cream cheese to keep everything from falling out.)
Fold again and sift powdered sugar on top.
Enjoy!
You guys - I have been watching this series over and over again. It feels so refreshing, so relatable, and it reminds me of the simple things hidden in everyday life. It’s absolutely joyous.
Ever since having the baby, I’ve been intentional about creating little moments of delight in our lives. Anyone working full time, managing relationships, momming, friend-ing, etc, knows how difficult balancing the load of “it all” can feel. Actually most days, it doesn’t feel like we can truly have it all without letting other things drop.
So, in this pursuit, it’s been really healing surrounding myself with beautiful things and finding the joy in otherwise basic moments.
For me, joy shows up in the midday sun, a slice of lemon with fresh mint from the kitchen, the glow of romantic lighting, and the quiet decision to feel thankful for the toy-strewn floor—because it means our baby’s laughing somewhere nearby.
On this particular day, it was waking up the household to the smell of fresh, soft and crispy, raspberry filled crepes, inspired by the Duchess - which were amazing!
It’s these things that make me realize, even if I still have destinations to reach, (and toys to clean up) - I am certainly living my dream life.
I hope you enjoy these as much as we did on this slow and cozy morning in Southern California <3
With Love,
Ambyr
