Well french toast is always an order around here. Not that we have it all the time, but there are hungry creatures that come out of the woodwork when french toast is being served on our table. This last batch that I made I decided to use Molly Wizenberg's, who wrote A Homemade Life, advice on generous oil in the pan rather than cooking the toast in butter. 
I had mixed feelings on the results: Although the bread did seal better . . . which was
her guidance . . . the flavor was of oil rather than butter . . .
Hmm . . . I'll have to test it again to get better aquatinted.
A tid bit of weaving has begun. I like seeing my seven-year-old hard at work . . .
Then putting them in action . . .
Everyone had lots of fun . . .
feet and the beautiful colored balls . . .
