My Faaaaavourite Blog Ever: Cakewrecks!

I can't help it!
I found this blog about last year, and I kept on reading it thorugh all their posts. I then a bit forgot about it for months. Yesterday, I remember it again after looking at my browser, that the link is still there. So I thought to give it a visit again. From my step on that blog until today, day 2, I keep on reading it. I have to catch up!
What so special about this blog anyway?
It's tremendously hilarious!!! This blog is about funny, wacky, or even scary cakes that made by pro and (obviously)not pro bakers.
Yesterday I spent all day(and night) attached to my blackberry just to glued my eyes on this blog. If I didn't remember my toddlers need to be feed, bath, nap and go to the bathroom, I probably spent the day lying down on our sofa browsing that blog. I think my toddler begin to find me weird(er) because I was laughing at my blackberry alone.
Ya ya ya, cut the crap. Here is the link, which you can also click directly on My Blog Walk list in this blog: CAKEWRECKS!
ENJOY!

Crepes/Dadar

Hm..
nothing special with this recipe. It's just a basic thing I just think needed to be posted. You know, to avoid me from digging or browsing for this basic crepes/dadar recipe again.
I tried this few days ago, just once in my life (haha). It's so simple and might be flexible enough to be made to another more serious snacks, maybe. I made a change a bit from its original recipe, like measuring fluor with cup(originally in grams) and change 50grams of butter into 2 tablespoons of oil (it's a healthier choice).
There are lots of crepes recipe out there. But I've just made this one.
So, here it is:

Crepes/Dadar

Ingredients:

1/2 cup flour
1 egg
150ml milk
2 tbsp of cooking oil
a pinch of salt

Directions:
- Whisk egg til just mixed
- Put in a bowl: fluor an salt, then mix with whiskers.
- Pour in the egg and keep whisking
- Pour the milk bit by bit, keep whisking
- Last, pour in oil and whisk all together til blended.
- Let it sit for about 30 minutes
- Heat the pan (I used 10cm pan) with medium heat
- Grease the pan with a little butter/margarine/oil
- Low down the heat to minimum
- Pour in the dough and let it spread
- Flip it.
- Get them out of the pan. ^^

*I got about 12 small crepes. Good luck!
