A Krampoueshour is a crepe fanatic in Breiz (Breton / Brittany language). So much for prosperity! After my prosperity burger a couple of days ago I am back to another prosperity tradition today being 40 days after Christmas. This day is called La Chandeleur in France (the day of the candles) and as per custom you have to make the crepes jump from the pan holding a coin in your hand in order to get prosperous during the coming year. Being a kid I remember we used to do this at home holding a Louis d'Or as it was the most valuable coin in the house. Unfortunately all my Louis d'Ors are in France and I can only do it with tiny unvaluable Singapore Dollars!
