A Crepe and A Blessing

Sometimes blessings come from the most unexpected places at the most unexpected times.

Last week, Quid and I went to brunch at a crepe place close by. I had seen La Petite Creperie on Yelp and was curious to try it out. 

The place itself is really cute-very French, on the smallish side, but quaint in a good way. The menu is actually quite large, but since we were at a creperie, we decided to go with crepes! Duh haha.
We decided on one savory crepe (chicken and mushrooms with some kind of cream sauce on a whole wheat crepe) and one sweet crepe (a lemon citron). They were both really yummy!

As we sat and ate and chatted, one of the workers walked up to our table and told us that "the lady who just left took care of your bill." WHAT?!? We were shocked. The crazy thing is that this "lady" that he was referring to was this woman whom both of us had noticed because she had a huge colorful tattoo on her leg and she was kind of gruff-looking. Definitely not someone whom we would've thought would have been so kind and gracious like that.

It was a reminder to us not to judge a book-or a person-by their cover. This gruff-looking, tattooed up woman certainly blessed our socks off, and for no reason either-she doesn't even know us!

I'm totally wanting to pay it forward now~simply because to be the recipient of something like this is so special. And besides, it's something Jesus would do-treat others as you would want to be treated :)

Merci!
