So in my family we have what I thought was "a family favorite",which is crepes. It seemed that everytime I made them all were happy and I would always have to make more. I have fed crepes to wrestling teams, volleyball teams and it seems any special occasion they would be the request. I found out a few months ago that Kay is not a big crepe fan. For years I did not know this. Then today came another shocker. Tara called me just before it was time to come over. She asked me what we were having for dinner. I very excitingly told her crepes ( you see I thought this would be a special surprise). I expected her to shout with glee but instead there was a strange quietness. "Aren't you excited about crepes" I asked. More silence. "Helloooo". Tara then replied, "there is no good way to answer that question". I was stunned. "Don't you like crepes." "They are not something I would ask for." I felt it go straight to my heart. First of all Nicholas and Jackie had decided not to come for dinner and I knew that was one of Nicholas's favorite and now there was Tara who after all these years is just now informing me that she doesn't like them either. I tried really hard not to take it personally. After some healing time I decided to make her and Kay spaghetti. It was the best I could do last minute. So on my Sunday dinner table tonight was crepes and all the fixins', orange juice, and spaghetti. Thank goodness for the boys. They loved the crepes.

Dear Kris,
So are you ABSOLUTELY sure Nicholas likes Crepes - or for that matter, ALL the boys. Don't answer unless you want to incriminate yourself.
By the way, your little brother Kenny LOVES Crepes, and I guarantee THAT. He even had his own Crepe pan. Love, Jessie
