So busy making bean soup I forgot to mention that your remark about French toast got me thinking and I had a nice plate of French toast w/turkey ham for breakfast. Yum!

Actually, I love french toast. I usually make it with thick slices of bread I baked the day before. The batter is mostly eggs with a little milk, a big pinch of sugar, a small pinch of salt, and freshly ground nutmeg.
In a pinch I'll MacGyver my own fake maple syrup: Two cups of sugar (or Splenda for a sugar-free version), one cup of water. Simmer until sugar is dissolved and liquid is reduced by 1/4-1/2. Stir in 1/8 tsp maple extract and a small pinch of salt. It's not real maple syrup (what is?), but it's as good as generic store-bought pancake syrup.
