Mini Family Reunion


My husbands family came out this weekend. We haven't all been together for a very long time. His sister and Dad were missing, but everyone else came. We saddled up the horses and had a good laugh watching Darren's little brother try to act very brave, even though he was scared out of his wits! The kids had fun riding the motorcycles and playing in the dirt and then a group of them went up four wheeling to see some Indian petroglyph's. They got to see an added bonus - a grey wolf!
It was a fun weekend, but I am exhausted!
For breakfast, I made Rachel Baum's yummy French Toast Casserole recipe:

Break up a loaf of white bread into a casserole dish. Then combine 6 eggs, 1/2C. sugar, 1 1/2C. half and half, 1t. vanilla, 1/4t. cinnamon and 1 shake of nutmeg. Cover and refrigerate over night. In the morning, melt 1 cube of butter then add 1/2C. brown sugar and 1T. maple syrup. Drizzle this over the toast mixture and bake for 40 minutes at 350*.

Serve this with Carrie Caldwell's buttermilk syrup - which was listed on my last post.

WOW! Is all I can say - you can just feel the pounds growing on you as you eat this, but it is sooo... worth it!!
