yep, eggs, cinammon, vanilla and a little milk. Mix and stir. Make up a batch, add more cinnamon as needed (since it always sticks to the first few and then there is none left for the others). Then freeze them on a cookie sheet, flat, so they are not sticking together. After about an hour or two, they are frozen enough to stack up. Then just put them back in the bread bag and seal then toss in the freezer. You can them pull them out a few at a time and toss them in the toaster for a quick healthy breakfast.

FYI- a dozen eggs will make up a loaf and a half of French Toast. Collect all the end pieces for making your own bread crumbs too!

I am happy to be your idol, glad I am someones, lol. :Wave:

had to hit CVS for a few deals today. This kind of stumped me since I earned $20 ECB with my purchaces. I couldn't decide if I should add the $20 ECB to my available total or not. After consulting with many wise women, I decided not to. I will treat it like a "Free Item" coupon and just use it as that.

2 full size boxes Graham Crackers
2 full size packs Nutter Butters
3 full size packs Oreo Double Stuff
1 full size box Lorna Doone (for ME)
4 Gallons milk

total paid OOP $3.45

balance for the year $324.64

    Here is an easy recipe for the kids

    Take one bag of butter cookies and a gallon or quart or even a small box of vanilla ice cream or whatever flavor u prefer and put the ice cream in between the cookies and a cookie on each side of the ice cream and but them in a tuperware container and let it freeze and you have cheap easy to make ice cream sandwiches and u can switch the type of cookie to whatever kind u prefer like chocolate chip, oatmeal, peanut butter and you can change the ice cream flavor to whatever kind u prefer a perfect summer treat and it works great with babies that are teething since the cold ice cream helps soothe their gums i always make a ton of these for friends and family members great for birthday parties
