Piper pointed out today's samples as the students arrived. "We're gonna try some foreign cuisine today. You'll be making crepes, which are French. When you finish making them, feel free to add any filling you want to."

She glanced at the various choices sitting on the counter. "We've got strawberries, bananas, chocolate sauce, various jams, etc. You can even add more than one if you feel like it."

"I'll be around, as usual, if you have questions," Piper added, handing each student a list of instructions.

Equipment Needed

Mixing Bowl

Measuring Cups

Measuring Spoons

Frying Pan

Spatula

Ingredients

1 cup flour

1/2 cup milk

1/2 cup water

2 eggs

2 tbsp melted butter

2 teaspoons sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and the eggs.

Gradually add in the milk and water, stirring to combine.

Add the sugar, vanilla and butter; beat until smooth.

Heat a lightly oiled frying pan over medium high heat.

Pour the batter into the pan, using approximately 1/4 cup for each crepe.

Tilt the pan with a circular motion so that the batter coats the surface evenly.

Cook the crepe for about 2 minutes, until the bottom is light brown.

Loosen with a spatula, turn and cook the other side.

Add whatever filling you want and then roll them up.

Willow thought about it. "Iron Chef Microwave!"

Anders's face lit up. "Now that? I can totally get behind that."

"There could be, like, a popcorn ground, and a best use of reheated leftovers round!" Willow said, getting into it now.

"And a round where everybody tries to get frozen dinners heated for just the perfect amount of time so they're not still frozen but not super hot!"

"Oo, yes!" Willow said. "Which is not as easy as it looks because your microwave oven's wattage may vary."

Anders snapped his fingers. "And everyone will have to guess what their microwave's wattage is, because it'll be covered up."

"Very clever!" Willow said. "For dessert we could test out melting chocolate without ruining it."

"Oooo." Anders whistled. "Yeah, that's a tough one. I always get the container all melty."

"And if you do it too much it gets all burnt and gritty," Willow agreed. "Though pour it on ice cream and anything's edible. Except bacon."

"Hmm, bacon?" Anders shook his head. "That's a definite no."

"You know, if Piper won't do it we should," Willow said. "We could hold it in a common room."

"One of the ones that needs redecorating," Anders added. "Just in case all that microwaving makes something blow up."

"I vote not five then," Willow said. "One of the other floors can clean up."
