Date Night Fruit Crepes

In an effort to impress me when we were first dating,  my husband, wowed me with these fruit crepes on one of our Friday night date nights.   I know he hates it when I say something he did was cute, but it was so cute and really won me over when he took out his Better Homes and Garden cookbook and turned it to the page with his hand marked note of "crepes".   He poured me a glass of wine and I watched him make crepes from scratch - frankly something I'd never even thought of doing. Eric doesn't make a lot of things, he really only has about six to eight things that he makes, spaghetti, meatloaf, sweet and sour chicken, burritos, and a few others -- that is why when he said he was making crepes -- I thought -- this I have to see. I found out they aren't as hard as I expected and Eric did an awesome job of making them.   A really good non-stick pan makes it much easier  and is essential.   I just bought one of those new ceramic ones and it is WONDERFUL.   The other thing I discovered is you can BUY crepes in the frozen food section in many grocery stores.  So for those of you who don't want to make your own -- you don't have to -- buy them.  I'm going to put the recipe for them below and it will be another day I make that youtube video. This simple, elegant recipe can be used as a main dish with a glass of white wine and salad or as a dessert. Enjoy and keep it simple.
