Followed your recipe right on down, including the orange zest (which I do enjoy using) & we had a most satisfying & tasty French toast breakfast! This is definitely a recipe I'll be making again ~ Thanks for posting it! [Made & reviewed for one of my adoptees in this Spring's round of Pick A Chef] Want to know more about PAC?

I recently moved to Maryland after having been raised in New Jersey. My boyfriend and I have been together for almost 7 years and we love living here! He is a T.A. and grad student at the University of Delaware and I work full-time as a Pharmacy Technician. I love to cook, but I am new to it. I just started last July ('07) when we moved in together. He is super busy, but tries to help when he can, and he is great in the kitchen! He's helpful and insightful and loves to eat! I'm still a little slow in the kitchen, but I'm catching on. We love the outdoors, nature, and curry! We have no children, but 4 of the cutest fish that you'll ever see! We are busy and our schedules are hectic, but we always make time for great food and even better conversation.
