Ravenous and Chandeleur
Our special guests, M. Zuka and Mme Raymond from Ravenous, came to visit our class on February 2. This day also happens to be la Chandeleur, a holiday in France where crêpes take center stage! Students taking crêpe orders from their classmates (en français !) Mme Raymond explaining the history of crêpes. Miam miam ! Mr. Quinn, Mr. Loggins, Mr. Singer, and Mme Murray got in on the fun too! As is the tradition in France, some students had the opportunity to flip a crêpe for good luck. Mme Raymond and M. Zuka chose students who had unique crêpe ideas to come give it a try.
