What an incredibly tough and destructive day on the cobblestones in the dreaded stage 5 of the Tour de France yesterday between Ypres and Arenberg Porte du Hainaut, still in Northern France. Congratulations to Dutchman Lars Boom (great name!) for destroying a field of tough, tough men and winning today’s stage!

Just one word about the whole event today – and I’m 3000 miles away: “OUCH!” Another few words: cobblestones are part of classic road pavement history – and should be permanent history as far as pro cycle racing is concerned. Too many of the world’s best athletes got smoked today, including last year’s Tour winner Chris Froome, on history’s pavement relics.

Ok, enough of the hard. How ’bout some easy, great, signature French flavor? How ’bout crepes made easy!

Here are the ingredients you need.

Here are a couple of my favorite ways to use ’em: on the sweet side – with nut butter, yogurt, fresh fruit, dried fruit, whipped cream (absolutely necessary), and cereal and…

…on the savory side – with leftover meat and vegetables.
