First Crepe Night of the Year!!

Tuesday, October 1, 2013




















sunday we had our first crepe party of the year. i have been throwing crepe parties with my roommates since my sophmore year of college and i will be throwing crepe parties until i die. just kidding... well maybe not haha i seriously love them. everyone who knows me, knows that i love to throw parties. i love to plan events and i love any excuse to get people together. 

crepe night first began... many years ago with my best friend and roommate julie (jewelz). i got the idea from sitting in class one day and i over heard a kid ask his friend if he was coming over to his house for crepes. i was like ding! crepe night! how fun does that sound and how much more fun would it be if we invited a crazy ton of people. i immediately texted julie and since she is the coolest and always down for whatever she said "lets do it". we became so obsessed with throwing them, we would have one once a week. julie and i would send out personalized texts to everyone in our phone book that went to Utah State.  it would have been so much easier and less time consuming if we just sent out a mass texts but.... we thought we could get more people if we invited people individually. we were right and our little apartment was packed everytime. 
we don't throw crepe nights every night like we use to but we have kept the tradition alive. it is kind of a rule that if you live with me you have to be willing to join the crepe night ban wagon and you have got to be okay with hosting parties. 


 crepe preparation...


crepe preporation is an all day afair. something we didn't learn until after a little trial and error. when we first started crepe night, we would cook the crepes an hour before. bad idea considered we would run out of crepes, and were cooking them like crazy while our guests were there! now that we are seasoned crepe party throwers we have learned we need to start making crepes at 3 in the afternoon to cater the amount of people we get to come. we quadruple the recipe like six times and buy tons of fruit and crepe toppings.
