--------  ------------  --------------------------------
                       -----CREPES-----
  2       c            Flour
  2       tb           Sugar
  2       lg           Eggs
  2       c            Milk
  2       tb           Oil, cooking

      Combine the flour, sugar, eggs, and milk and beat
 until smooth. The resulting batter should be the
 consistency of thin cream.

      Add oil to the batter and mix lightly.

      Grease an 8-inch crepe pan or frying pan lightly
 with butter and heat until the butter is quite hot but
 not burned.

      Ladle about 1/3 cup (or a bit less) of the batter
 into the pan and rotate the pan to spread the batter
 evenly.  Cook the crepe until it looks firm and is
 lightly browned at the edges (about 1 minute) then
 turn the crepe over with a thin spatula or your
 fingers and cook the other side for about 30 seconds.

      Grease the pan with a bit more butter about every
 other crepe, or when the crepes begin to stick.

      Repeat until the batter is gone.
