Inappropriate food longings

I woke up, humidity sticking me to the core, and decided I wanted French toast. Since I have never made French toast, nor actually make a lot of anything, this was very unusual. I do think the breath of newness sweeping my abode (in the form of clear-er areas, not quite clean and clear, but definitely better!!!) may have been the reason why.

I attempted to find the recipe in:

• my aunt's cookbook (too Americana oriented as in sides and jello)
• my Bittman everything book (which I couldn't find, but the pantry wasn't touched in yesterday's sweep, so better luck later on)
• the web of course: http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/recipes/recipe/0,1977,FOOD_9936_26808,00.html

Alton Brown's half and half ingredient seems a little snooty (how French, bad, bad), so I'm going to try to milk it instead.

And now that I've made myself completely hungry, it's time to actually try the cooking part.
