savoury crêpes

this weekend just gone saw me doing NO research-related work (considering how late i get back usually during the week) ! YIPPEEE!!!! instead, i did laundry, tried to rent a car but was told i couldn't until the official license arrived... nonetheless i attempted to go shoe-hunting on saturday but was unsuccessful... it seems that online-shopping might be the next best solution... come sunday... i shamelessly slept the whole of it... only to crawl out of bed when the day was nearly over... it seems that my body has won the battle on sunday. for the last week i have been enduring some slimey bug in my system which aroused an unwarranted appearance of annoyingly painful Cranker-sores on my tongue; truly awful. and the only consolation, if any, is that i actually spoke with a more obvious 'british' accent when these crankers manifest themselves. while i've attempted to drown my system with fluids... i remained feeling quite ill... perhaps it is the spores of autumn, perhaps it's stress... (yes the stupid conference poster stress!)

anyways... i felt a lot better after the whole lot of sleep! sleep is a miraculous cure! and to celebrate that 'feeling-better', i decided to go find some ingredients and make some crêpes for dinner... afterall, one has to eat and i just welcomed home a wee but lovely professional non-stick pan, which calls for a celebratory act of actually putting it into use!

while i am not indulging in cuisine-recipes here... because there are so many excellent, professional-looking and entertaining foodblogs out there (e.g. C&Z or TTL) and overacuppa just isn't quite as profi... there is still the random occasion of my foody-indulgence...

and i must admit that the sporadic creation of savoury crêpes filled with finely chopped honey-cured ham, parsely, thinly sliced celery, chestnut mushrooms, and generously sprinkled fresh parmesan cheese to glue all the goodness together, were delightfully complemented with homemade barely water, which DSD kindly reminded me to have to feel better!

i should be on my way to full recovery... hopefully!
