I think I mark the clafoutis all the time and never make it.

So my shoe fiasco from last week? GOT BETTER! Grace's shoes, which I also bought there and should fit her? One was a right size 4 and the other a right size 7.I have to go back for a THIRD time.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

But I'd have to wait an hour to eat a clafouti, whereas pancakes were ready in ten minutes.

That is true, but, like good fake birthday cake and pizza, it can provide breakfast for days.

I do actually have heavy cream, and I assume the rum can be left out. What's the measurement for the heavy cream? It just says 1/2. I'm assuming a half cup, but if I get it wrong, it would be really wrong.

Ooops, fixed now. Yes, 1/2 cup.

ETA: I suppose you could leave out the rum, but then you might be met with a chorus of "But why is the rum gone?"

“Not dead yet!”

Thanks to the cupcake talk, I went and bought two dozen gourmet cupcakes for a pajama party a bunch of writers are having tonight.

They are sitting in my room right now... TAUNTING ME.

That is a lot of clafouti ingredients! We use this one all the time: [link]

We use the oven directions, not the cooking in hot coals one. But it's so simple! Eggs, milk, flour, sugar. Fruit. Butter to grease the dutch oven. YUM!

I made blueberry crumpets this morning because I had sourdough starter to use up and no eggs.
