Well, we’ve moved out of our apartment, left Edmonton, and now we’re “homeowners”. That “home” being Gus the Bus, our mobile Crash Test Kitchen, which we’re driving across Canada on the trip of a lifetime.
We had to move out of the flat a week before we left town (we decided to stay for the Edmonton Folk Festival) and our friends Ian, Jen and their little boy Noah kindly put us up in their basement. So as a thank-you I made them my famous crepes, and Lenny whipped up a delicious blueberry sauce.
Len came up with a simple recipe on the spot, and you only have to watch Noah in the video to see how much he enjoyed it!
The crepes are the same ones I made in the “Great Crepe Debate” episode, just a bigger batch.
As we motor right across Canada we’ll be posting video whenever we can, so make sure to keep watching. We’ll be making the most of local ingredients and influences as we whip up travel cuisine in what we’re calling our “Crash Test Kitchen On Safari” series.
It should be a lot of fun.

Cute Vid! Crepes sound so good now!
Thanks again for the ride. We have a home now.
See you soon.
Oh, the kitchen became familiar, but time to move on.
Nice last stop and breakfast before entering the unknown!
Well hello, Down Underers…hmm, new word. The vid is terrific, made me laugh. What a charming little brat, hey!?

Thinking of you guys,

Hi there, What a cute adorable little person!
I came across your blog via the Aussie Food Bloggers Ring, and see that you are in Canada at the moment. I run a little edition called Omnivoribus Australis, where all Aussie food blogger (ex-pats too) send in their fav post.

Thanks!
Nice video
Hey guys.
I love watching your show’s. I think that it is cool how you came up with the idea to tour around a country cooking in different kitchens. While you were in edmonton, I was in High Level Alberta. That is 8hr north of edmonton, and 3 hours south of the Northwest Territory boarder. The Town has 3500 people in it.
Thanks, have fun making movies.
