I'm going to make this now:

http://allrecipes.com/recipe/sugar-f...le/detail.aspx

House will smell nice when the Trick Or Treaters come but I'm afraid we
might not get many. Looks like rain out there.

I bought two loaves of bread which I don't usually do but I thought I would
use one for sandwiches. Then I didn't use it. So... Casserole it is I
add a little maple flavoring to mine and I use whole wheat bread. It's a
favorite in this house.

I've had something similar bookmarked for quite a while. Not sure
when I'll make it though. Might get a chance to do it during the
holidays when all the family is over.

I've made countless things with leftover bread but this is one that they'll
eat.

We got out of the bread pudding habit when DIL was doing her year long
elimination diet, trying to figure out if she was allergic to wheat.
It turned out (after a blood test) that it wasn't wheat, it was
yeast... she isn't horribly allergic, but she does get arthritic type
symptoms that are very uncomfortable - she limits yeasted products and
picks her battles now. She never says no to my pizza, so that's quite
a compliment.

Nothing french toast about it, that's a basic bread pudding... very
common navy chow... I've made it countless times and many versions.

I made one bread pudding that I actually liked. It might have been from
Meta Givens or the other book that I had of that era...American Family? It
was very fussy in that the bread had to have the crusts removed, was cut in
certain sized pieces, toasted and arranged in a specific way in the dish. I
served it with vanilla sauce. This was before Angela was born. I liked it
but husband did not. I didn't like it enough to make it again. And these
days I rarely make any sweets aside from the vegan fudge. Generally if I do
make them it is because I have something that I need to use up.

I kept trying the stratas. Angela did like these when she was little. And
I tried the breakfast casserole. I think the problem here is that the bread
that we normally eat (honey whole wheat) has such a sweet taste to it and
coarse, crunchy texture when toasted that it is best for toast and toasted
sandwiches. I don't even like it on cold sandwiches. It just doesn't seem
to lend itself to other things. But it does seem to work in the French
Toast casserole.

My mom can't eat tomatoes. It's not an allergy but causes her arthritis to
flare.

Hmmm... The bread pudding I made was much thicker. And when I've used a
bread pudding recipe, they didn't like it.

We try to eat low sugar here, hence the Splenda. And nobody likes raisins.
I have not bought ice cream in a long while. I don't like it myself but it
seems that the other two were addicted to it. Literally. If I bought it,
it was gone in an instant. Daughter asked me not to buy it. If we don't
have it, she won't eat it. I think husband discovered the same thing. He
has not asked for it for a long time. Daughter did ask for a very small
single serve container a few months ago. She had a sore throat. I did buy
that and bought one for her dad. But that's it. They don't even get it now
in a restaurant, even if it is free.

I didn't count and we missed two big groups because husband just sat there
and didn't answer the door. By the time I got there, they were gone. I did
do the math and based on what remained, I'd say that we got about 65 kids.
The Sour Patch Kids went first. *Note to self, buy two boxes next year*.
Then the Skittles. Not too many of the Twizzlers went. The year that I had
the long ones, they were well liked. But I bought the Nibs this time. Full
sized packages. I got them at Winco and that is the only form that they
sell. Won't get those again either. And nobody took the Snyder's pretzels.

I don't know where these kids came from. I only answered the door about 7
times and they all were Latino. I only know of one Latino family near us.
Their daughter is a year younger than mine and she did not come. Lots of
very little kids. No little kids that I know of that live near us. We did
get one bunch that we know. The girl is two years younger than my daughter.
They used to be friends but grew apart as they aged. She has two younger
brothers. But... Daughter is 15 now and not too many kids of that age go
out. Some do but this year we didn't see many older ones at all and no
adults. I bought the pretzels for the adults because in the past we got
what appeared to be homeless people just looking for food.

You let these kids/people "help themselves" and get a choice of what
they take? I would NEVER do that...they get what I want to give them.

I used whole wheat bread in this. I don't normally like whole wheat either
but I do like this kind. I only like it toasted though. Some lady gave a
review of this recipe. Said that she added cream cheese to it but then
didn't like it. I was like... Uh... Duh!

That could be. There is a Catholic church near here. And I have seen/heard
people call other people on their cell phones and give them our address.
Heh!

Sure I do! Why wouldn't I? The only person who took more than one thing is
a boy that we know. He's autistic so we cut him some slack. Most years
anyone that comes around 10:00 gets a big handful of whatever we have left.
But this year they stopped coming at 9:00.

I went out to one house for trick or treating. Thought I might get
some good candy snacks. I carried Mia with me. So I knocked on the
door. The lady answered it and I said, "Trick or Treat!" She looked at
me and said, "Aren't you a little old for this and where is your

I replied, "I'm a 5 year old ferret dressed up as human Gary, my owner
and dad." Then I held up Mia and said, "This is Gary, he's wearing a

No candy. She just slammed the door in our faces. On the way home, Mia
said, "I tried to tell you this wouldn't work."

Sucralose is great, but only idiots bake with cups of the granular, which
is full of carbs. I buy only pure sucralose.

I guess some folks would rather be fat, or diabetic, or both.

You started your soup with a can of Swanson watered down chicken ****
broth. You have no right to critisize other's preference of
ingredients for anything. Go back to your book and your sexual
fantasies and try to keep all that to yourself from now on.

Yeah. The broth came to mind when he said that. This recipe needs the
granular at least on top. It does leave a crunchy texture. If you just put
liquid in there it would get soggy.

This dish is awesome and thanks to all after your discussion i get many knowledge about food
