Crepes and Croissants

Each morning in Paris, we grabbed breakfast at the cutest bakeries with the greatest pastries I have ever tasted.  My absolute favorite treat was the apricot croissant.  I wanted to buy three dozen and take them home with me.  They were to die for.  My other favorite food in Paris were the baguettes.  Every corner we turned, someone was walking around with a two foot baguette, just casually nibbling the bread. These are my kind of people.

Following closely with stereotypes of French cuisine, crepes were all the rage.  We found our favorite creperie in the Latin Quarter of Paris and I had the toughest time deciding which one to get.  Peanut butter?  White chocolate?  Honey and butter??  I decided on banana, butter, and sugar and it was so yummy.  Reminded me of banana pancakes since crepes are basically very thin pancakes with fillings.  I liked it but not as much as my croissant!
