French Toast

I have a question for you-- what are your feelings on French toast? I used to think it was sort of gross and that it just tasted soggy, however last Sunday my dad made some on sourdough bread (maybe that was the difference) and it was divine. What's your favorite breakfast treat?

Muffins

Every Thursday Dusty has a twenty-our hour shift at the La Habra Heights fire station and so as often as I can I try to send baked goods with him to share with his buddies. This last week I decided to make muffins so I made three different kinds: blueberry, cinnamon, and pumpkin. He told me that the guys really liked them (which usually means that Dusty really liked them too) so just now I made some caramel apple ones just for us. I haven't tried them yet but they really look delicious. I got the recipes from this cookbook and they'rce all been really easy to make. The other thing that I really like about these recipes is that each one only makes one dozen muffins, which is the perfect amount really (I don't think that I'd like to have 48 or so muffins around me at once). Do you like muffins? What is your go-to baked good?

If you give a lady a glass of almond milk...

This morning I tried almond milk for the first time and was pleasantly surprised by just how good it is! I had some on a bowl of cereal and then enjoyed it so much that I had some plain! It has a mildly nutty, well almond-y taste that I think would be great with a chocolate covered biscotti, or just a chocolate chip cookie...which got me thinking about one of my favorite kid's books... If You Give A Mouse A Cookie by Laura Joffe Numeroff.

Television shows for kids

When I was a young child I wasn't allowed to watch much television but my favorite show was Mister Rogers' Neighborhood. I still have fond memories of eating maple and brown sugar oatmeal in my pajamas while watching Mr. Rogers, Trolley, and King Friday XIII . What were some of your favorite shows when you were young? If you have kids what do you let them watch, if anything?
