Dad’s French Toast 

Any time my mom was gone or sick and my dad was in charge of dinner he would make us French Toast. For YEARS I tried and failed at making my French Toast like his. One day I finally asked him how he made it. His recipe is so easy and uncomplicated that I laugh at my many, MANY attempts. I make it now and I’m transported back to my dad’s dinner time.


Dad’s French Toast 

5-6 eggs

1 cup of milk

1 tsp. Salt

1 tsp. Black pepper 

Mix together and dredge bread in the mixture (flipping quickly) and cooking until toasty and brown in medium heated saucepan.

Soft Sugar Cookies and Buttercream Frosting 

We have used these recipes for years. Neither is figure friendly, but they are so delicious.  Dawnyel’s soft sugar cookies  1 cup shortening  2 cups sugar  1 cup sour cream 3 eggs 5 cups flour 1 tsp. Salt 1 tsp. Baking soda 1 tsp. Vanilla Mix together and chill for an hour. Roll out and bake at 375 degrees for 5-8 minutes. Buttercream Frosting  1 cup room temperature butter  1 cup shortening  Whip together. Add 5-8 cups powdered sugar  3-5 Tbsp milk 1 tsp flavoring (my personal favorite is coconut extract) 1 tsp vanilla Mix until the right consistency. If it’s too loose, add more sugar, if it’s too stiff, add more milk. My frosting always tastes better than canned frosting! And it’s easy to make. I just end up covered in powder.
