Blogging on the Brain

I know I've been quiet here recently. It's because I've been working on some new blogs. I'm totally bitten by the writing bug. Everything I do, I think, "Hmmm, that might make a good blog post." I need to start carrying around a notebook to jot down all my ideas.

I'd love it if you visit (and subscribe!) my other blogs. Each one is a bit more specialized, as opposed this one, which is kind of a mish-mash. I'd love to hear your feedback. What you'd like to see on each blog. Suggestions of topics, etc.

To make life easier, here are the links:

  • Cup of Creativi-Tea: I'm sharing all things creative, whethere it's cooking, sewing, or kid crafts. Maybe some bellydancing (that's creative!). I'm also adding lots of tutorials.
  • I'm Not the Nanny: Parenting stories, with some musings about raising biracial kids in a racially conscious world
  • Laugh in Bed: Intimacy and relationships. Maybe some sex.

I'll still post here occassionally until I get the other ones established! Thanks for reading!

Pain Perdu


"Pain perdu" literally means "lost bread." It means french toast. I recently got a bread machine from Freecycle, and boy am I having fun with it! It has a timer delay so my bread is still warm when I get home! It makes the entire apartment smell yummy. On Tuesday I made a delicious Walnut Wheat Bread (recipe from King Arthur Flour). Okay, so the recipe called for pecans but I had walnuts from my ice cream social I hosted this Sunday. We only had a little bit of bread left so I sliced them about 3/4" thick. Let them sop up that cinnamony egg batter goodness and voila! French Toast. Here's the first two cooling on a rack. (I'm gonna but them in the fridge so DH can just pop one in the toaster for breakfast tomorrow). I would serve this with some powdered sugar or whipped cream and fruit. I'm salivating just thinking about breakfast tomorrow.

Barb sweetly emailed me to let me know she was behind on my apron. The anticipation is tough! I'll wait patiently because it's gonna rock!
