Catch Up...

So I'm just super behind in posting. I have two recipes I'm behind in sharing and a cute dog story to cover in this post. (I also spent some time today making the rest of the "new" recipes for this week, but I'll post those later).

First recipe- Stuffed cinnamon french toast. One of my childhood faves- my dad used to make this when I was a kid. I took two pieces of bread, and dipped it in an egg mixture (1 egg, 1/3 c milk, tsp of vanilla), dusted the dipped bread with cinnamon and then fried in a tsp of butter. Once bread is browned on both sides I took cream cheese and made a sandwich out of it. The cream cheese gets all melty and delicious. I topped with maple syrup. I actually had this for dinner one night this week when I got home late and didn't feel like cooking. It took less than 10 minutes to prep and cook.

The other recipe I tried out was a new caesar dressing. I got the recipe from Smitten Kitchen. I didn't feel like making chicken, so I did it plain. I made the croutons by cutting some sourdough bread slices into cubes, mixing them with melted butter, garlic salt and pepper, and baking at 350 for 15 minutes. I topped the salad with parmesan cheese.

Finally, today is Superbowl Sunday. Unfortunately I have a midterm this week in a class that I don't understand at all and will also be giving a midterm to my class next week, so sadly this weekend is being spent making a midterm and studying for one. Yuck. While that leaves me not so excited about the big game, since there will be no yummy food or beer involved, I am excited about the Puppy Bowl shown on Animal Planet. Mostly because Reaghan loves it. For some reason Reaghan responds to the tv. When someone knocks on a door or rings a doorbell on the tv, Rae thinks that it's actually happening at our house and runs to our door. But when dogs bark on tv she is completely fascinated by it and will just sit and stare at it. Hence, I captured some cute pics of her watching the puppies. Enjoy her cuteness!
