Have another donut
For proper French toast, 2 things.
Don't just dip bread in milk, or scrambled eggs.
Make a custard first (which is by definition both eggs and milk). I like to use 3 eggs per cup of half and half, sweetened with 2 tablespoons of honey, plus a pinch of salt.
Second - make sure the bread is stale first - so get a loaf of bread that has eggs as an ingredient.
Challah, Brioche, Hefezopf etc.
Use really thick slices and allow them to go stale overnight - when they soak up the custard they will still hold their structure.

that does sound good. the problem is I don't plan my breakfast out in advance like that. Eggs, Milk, salt, cinnamon and cheap white bread from wal-mart still makes for a very tasty breakfast about 20 minutes after I decide I want it.

If you can't get your eggs fresh from one of Greenland's once per century free range chicken operated chicken farms, store bought is fine.

I love me some wal-mart eggs. I couldn't tell you the brand, but I can tell you they are the cheapest jumbo eggs they sell.

I bet those are amazing. I seriously considered having a chicken coop in my back yard, but I live in a city and couldn't have it within 5 feet of a side property line so it didn't work out.

As an almostsoontobebutnotreallysoontobeitsacoupleofyearsleftbutyouknowhowitis-doctor, i concur with Ogre. The physical and mental trauma that you have been put through should be well compensated for.
Sue for one billion dollars, no less, no more. I'll sign any papers needed.
It's also my birthday today, I don't see no thread about it. I'm very disappointed. Darth Vitale got one last year (or was it the year before?)

I may be American, but I'm only going to sue someone if it is absolutely necessary. I'm feeling fine today, no damage was done to the car, yadda yadda yadda.
Just because I can do something doesn't mean I should do something.

I'm from the Jersey Shore and my name is Tony. I'm thinking about buying an IROC just to really fit the stereotype.
