French toast sandwhich

Okay guys so here is my recipe number one for the bridal shower tomorrow.
French Toast Sandwhich
Okay take sourdough english muffins. Drege them in eggs, vanilla extract, cinnimon, and nutmeg (to your taste).
Mix it all together then put it in the oven on a greased pan on 375°F or 190° C for 10 mins.
Then when they are golden brown put cream cheese on it and I used banana slices but fruit topping is your choice.
Thats it, easy and yummy. Enjoy!

Potato soup!

So of course I am always wrong and apparently know nothing....my stubborn husband decided to till up my garden today...because he was being nice and helping me out....(wrong). I said wait my carrots and potatoes and winter onions are still growing. He told me no, they are done I know they are. So he started pulling up my potato plants and little potatos where falling off. I said see they are still growing, he told me they dont get as big as they would be in a store and they wont be any good anyway. So then he proceeded to try to tell me my carrots were not growing either. So I made him dig one up and sure enough, they were! So now I have decided to prove him wrong. I made potato soup with my baby potatoes and had him come try it....he loved it and then I told him where the potatoes came from.
This ladies and gentlemen just goes to show...i do know what im talking about sometimes, and your wife is always right ;)  !
