Crêpes (dairy)

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 eggs

1/2 cup milk

1/2 cup water

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons butter, melted

1.In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and the eggs. Gradually add in the milk and water, stirring to combine. Add the salt and butter; beat until smooth.

Let the mixture rest for about two hours.

2.Heat a lightly oiled griddle or frying pan over medium high heat. Pour or scoop the batter onto the griddle, using approximately 1/4 cup for each crepe. Tilt the pan with a circular motion so that the batter coats the surface evenly.

4.To serve: Sprinkle with sugar. Serve hot, with jam, fruits and whipped-cream.

In der Stille und Abgeschiedenheit seines kleinen Zimmers einer kleinen Pension mit augenblicklich nur einem (und für diese Saison letzten) Gast ordnet der Sekretär die Ereignisse und Erinnerungen des Tages und fühlt sich dabei fast wie ein Mönch in seiner klösterlichen Zelle…

In the silence and seclusion of his small room in a small guesthouse with only (and for this season last) guest, Secretary sorts out the events and memories of the day, feeling almost like a monk in his monastic cell...

Die "Blechbüchse" is a department store in Leipzig, Germany. The name Blechbüchse means tin box and arises in the local language use in the times of GDR. It has been build in the year 1966 and was a design of Harry Müller. The picture references the aluminium front of the building. The builiding has been totally renovated in 2010. The original aluminium facade has been recovered.///////////thanks for passing by. I appreciate your favs and comments.

Do not open the box! Every war is the senseless destruction of lives

in the interests of the arms industry and a few deranged fanatics!

For the "Looking close... on Friday!" group theme of "old boxes".

No idea about the age of this little rather rusty tin box.

Its a nearly 3.5cm sized cube, so its pretty small.

The lid pulls off but if there were any contents they are long gone.

I think the box was an advertising item produced for the biscuit makers 'Huntley & Palmers' in Reading England The four sides and the top list a different type of biscuit, so I can't imagine that it ever contained any of them.

The box was given to me several years ago as a Birthday present and is treasured as such.

A quick hand-held photograph.

These are some adorable little tin eggs that are part of my big egg collection! I started collecting eggs ages ago, and no, they are not all in one basket! It takes quite a few these days! :)

Doc and I received a gift of old fashioned hard filled candies. A nice treat to enjoy, leading up to Christmas.

Macro Mondays effort on the Queen theme - great fun looking through the box of collectibles my father left me - this must have been my paternal grandfather's - he was 10 or 11 in 1910 and lived in Bristol

just a snap of some vintage containers I am selling at the auktion site Tradera (swedish ebay) at the moment...

I love vintage tin-boxes.

Have a nice weekend!

Wyatt & Co premises were at 67-71 Tanner Street in Bermondsey, diagonally opposite this old sign beneath the railway tracks into London Bridge station. The tin box factory has since been demolished and is being developed by DECO Design & Build.
