It's Time-Hey Santa

The main reason Santa is so jolly is because he knows where all the bad girls live.
George Carlin

It's been a busy couple of days. Holiday parties and cooking for friends. Friends who convinced me it's time to let go of the the love I had (tried once more over the last weeks and it failed) and get back out into the playing field. They're right. I know what I'm asking Santa for in the coming year.

In the meantime, I made an Eggnog French Toast Brunch. Here's the main feature:

EGGNOG FRENCH TOAST

1 1/2 cups eggnog

4 eggs
1 teaspoon fresh nutmeg
Loaf of challah bread sliced into 1 inches slices
Maple syrup

In medium bowl, combine eggnog, egg and nutmeg whisking just until blended .Dip sliced bread into egg mixture. Turn over and allow to sit in egg mixture 2-3 minutes per side.

In skillet, melt 2 T butter and saute each slice over medium heat 2 1/2 min or until golden brown.

Turn over and cook an additional 1 1/2 minutes. 

Serve with warm maple syrup.

We had french apple chicken sausage made by a local butcher and fresh squeezed orange juice. The Pyrex percolator made an appearance also.

Today I'm grateful for friends and their love/support in this holiday time.
