moving on over

I've decided to migrate my still infantile blog over to Wordpress.

mmmm..... hawaiian bread french toast

Weekends are the best, aren't they? If I've got a little time before rushing Sporty to games, one of my favorite things to make on the weekend is Hawaiian bread french toast. We've always got King's Hawaiian bread dinner rolls around the house. 

When I make these I usually just eyeball it, but here's a close approximation of my method:

• Mix together 2 eggs, about 1/4 c. milk, 1 tbsp. sugar, 1 tsp. vanilla, 1/2 tsp. cinnamon in a shallow bowl. 
• Take 2 Hawaiian rolls (leave them connected) and slice them about 3/4 through horizontally. Open them up and now you have a nice, squarish piece of doughy goodness. 
• Dip each side of the bread in the egg mixture. Cook on a well-buttered griddle or nonstick frying pan over medium heat for a few minutes on each side. When cooked, each side should have a little bit of browning.
• Serve with maple syrup, or my kids' favorite, jam.
