Drool-Worthy French Toast

I took a two very marvellous ideas from Tash and Caitlin to create the best french toast ever – Grilled Ciabatta with Caramelized Banana. OH.EM.GEE!!!!

Tash always talks about making her french toast with crusty french bread…..and well, even if Ciabatta is technically Italian, it still falls into the same delicious category! ;)  Soaked in an egg white, UVAB & cinnamon mixture.

 
Grilled up half a banana.  Easy – place banana in non-stick pan over medium heat and flip after a few minutes.

 
And drizzled with my Dad’s maple syrup.  This was such a treat!

With a mug of french roast.  Ahh, weekends!

Judging by the view from my window this morning, looks like we made the right decision by postponing the Cape Split Trip. Eck, I want that beautiful sunshine back!

• I weighed in this morning at an even 206 lbs.  That is +0.6lbs.  I did have a bit of a struggle the past two days so this isn’t exactly a surprise.  It’s tracked and I am going chugging along. Looking forward to this week, I’m going to rock it.  No ifs, ands or buts!  Who’s with me?
  
• The last week of my Gone Veggie Challenge is here.  Quite honestly, I’m happy that I’ll be able to have meat again if I chose.  The past few days I’ve gotten the weirdest cravings for lobster and bacon. Overall I’ve had a really good experience with the challenge and have made tons of new recipes/meals but at the end of the day I still miss meat.
• This coming week I’m going to start AND end the week with two awesome giveaways. Stay tuned!
• Our kitten has been SOOOOO clingy the last 3-4 weeks.  She is constantly purring, snuggling and trying to be as close to us as possible.  It’s really adorable but getting sort of annoying.  She’s jammed up next to my laptop as we speak.  Oh, and speaking of cats, I gave them sardines for the first time ever yesterday and they went absolutely insane! It was so cute, as soon as I opened the can and they could smell it they just went nuts! 

It feels like a gymbo/Chapters/Starbucks/movies day, don’t ya think? ;)  We have to head into the city to pick up a few things from Kent so I’m going to suggest just that!

Hope you all have a fabulous weekend!
