I love the griddle that was among my holiday surprises from Santa (aka G).
I can cook up a whole bunch of bacon, which in our house is a good thing, since we like it for grilled sandwiches and things other than breakfast..
I can make a whole griddleful of big fat brioche French toast, all custardy, vanilla-and-orange scented...
And then I can serve it all up on a tray destined for Sunday morning brekkie-in-bed, complete with good maple syrup (Grade B organic), berries, coffee. That man knew what he was doing when he gave me that griddle, didn't he...
That's a fantastic griddle! And your French Toast doesn't look too bad either - do you think they could keep up for a trans-atlantic trip?:-)

For you, Zarah, all things will be possible ;)

Weird, I was just telling my husband that we should get one of those griddles because ever since I introduced him to pancakes and maple syrup (I'm so glad that they are importing maple syrup!), it's been a hassle to cook pancakes just a medium-sized nonstick saucepan.
Ohhhh....your photos are delish....lucky people who have YOU to cook such grand breakfasts!!

Oooo! Beautiful food, Julie. It looks so good. That G. is one lucky guy to have you.

RArrarrr! ;-) The Filipinos are nothing to fawn over, they are little 2-inch sized cookie donuts (yeah, so where does the hole go? I love donut holes!). Tasting like butter cookies and entirely coated in milk chocolate, it's something that my dad has already requested an entire case of! He wants to pass them around at the golf course... Fathers! Go figure...
