Poor Girl Gourmet I am an egg nog-as-ingredient addict. And you will be, too, if you try this Baked Egg Nog-Sweet Bread French Toast. Plus, it bodes well for the New Year (you'll see): http://tinyurl.com/y95d446

If you plan to start 2010, not with an all-night booze bash, but, instead, with a civilized and refined (though possibly booze-including) brunch on New Year's Day, then I highly recommend that you make this Egg Nog-Sweet Bread French Toast to serve or take along.

Poor Girl Gourmet If you like crunchy stuffing, this is not for you. New post - Mom's Mushy Stuffing: http://tinyurl.com/yzrzyqy
