Grandaughter wanted something to eat, so we made some crepes together.  She kept  asking DW if she wanted some.  She said no, she didn’t like crepes.  I make crepe batter the same way I make pancake batter.   The only diffrence is that I add more milk and an extra egg.  DW loves my pancakes, but doesnt like my crepes?  I don’t get it.  What’s the diffrence?????  I love my wife……
