When I was little, my favorite food my dad made for me were crepes. They were similar to German pancakes as his family is from Germany, his great grandmother came over from Germany and first settled in Davenport, Iowa. Everyone in the family says I look like her :)
This is a recipe that is as close as I can get to the way my dad made it, I never got to ask him.
