We spent the last four days building a duck coop and getting to know the girls.
Today, the weather took a turn.
And the girls are the only ones enjoying this 'fowl' weather.
Rainy days = comfort food.
What can be more comforting than a giant dish of white bread..
Sugar, eggs and cream mixed in to a giant dish of white bread.
Baked French Toast
Oven to 350
1. tear up a loaf of french bread - throw into a greased casserole dish.
2. Crach 8 eggs into a bowl
3. Add to the eggs:
2 cups milk (2% or whole)
1/2 cup heavy cream
3/4 cup sugar
..and two tablespoons of vanilla.

4. In a separate bowl:
Take one stick of butter (1 cup) and cut with a pastry cutter.
5. Add 1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup brown sugar
