Yeah, frank and filtering out all info she doesn't want us to know, such as why her specific question.

Some folks forget that "omission" is also a form of manipulation/deception.

I always just throw a bunch of stuff together: about 2 cups of milk, 2-3 eggs, a teensy bit of salt, about 1/4 c of sugar, lots of cinnamon, a moderate amount of nutmeg, and sometimes if I'm feeling daring, just the tiniest dot of allspice.

Then I mix it with the mixer till its all frothy, dip the bread, and fry well. It is much more flavorful than ordinary french toast.

You're making me hongry.

I like neak's but I use 5-6 eggs, less cinnamon, more nutmeg, add vanilla. Let the bread sit out overnight and get a little stiff. It soaks up more mix that way. You can mix everything up the night before and have it ready in the morning. Then you can run a whisk through it and you're good to go.

Hmmmm, makes me want to try it with buttermilk, or maybe 1/2 buttermilk? <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I'm hongry, too.

Oh, you're right. I forgot the vanilla. I've never tried making it the night before, but that sounds good. Dry bread? I'd try it once, anyway.

I don't add the sugar in the mix... sprinkle powdered sugar on top after it's cooked. Excellent when you use thickly sliced French bread... or maybe Texas toast.

I like using baguettes. They are already crunchy and there's always some leftover.

A friend had a recipe where you put the sliced baguettes in a buttered casserol dish, poured the french toast batter over the top (I think the night before, so it soaks), sprinkled walnuts on top and baked it. VERY easy, no mess, not tied to the stove all morning. Then, add berries and a little creme fresh after it's done... <drool> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

Participating in ridiculing someone, regardless of what they do or have done, is just plain cruel.

I cheat, I buy a box brownie mix and add a bag of premium chocolate chips and nuts. Where it calls for water (usually 1/4 or 1/2 cup) I use Kahlua or Amaretto <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />. I hear peppermint schnaps works well, too. Then frost with fudge frosting. People flip out, I tell them it's a secret recipe.

Another trick. Mix up a brownie mix, put half in the pan. Add a layer of Heath Bar pieces or the little carmel candies, then add the rest of the mix. Then bake as usual. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
