French Toast Casserole Taste Testing in Progress
With the blessing of so many eggs from our chickens, we are test tasting several French Toast Casseroles. I have recipes for many egg dishes, but not for this type of casserole. Many of the recipes require 4 to 12 eggs to make. We are thrilled to give these a try. We have 2 from the Internet that are being baked this weekend. The trouble I am having, is finding a very healthy recipe. Many require cream and butter. Without other farm animals, I would have to buy these items. I'm seeing more benefits of adding goats, cows, pigs, and other animals.

Gold Mine Find ~ Goodwill
I visited a nearby Goodwill in search for old buttons for my daughters, however I wound up finding a wonderful deal on fabric! Each piece, which is about 3 yards or more were priced $.75 or $1.50 each. I absolutely love the first one on the left in the photo (with roses). I plan to sew curtains for my short bedroom bookshelves. I also found an old canning jar with a lid. I may repurpose it into a soap dispenser! The canning jar was only $.75.
