Vanilla French Toast | Kita Roberts PassTheSushi.comRight about now, you start to realize it's mid July and the summer has flown by without a moment to enjoy it. Busy weekends quickly added up and life continues to speed by. It's moments like this that I start to freak out over that summer bucket list that hasn't even gotten started yet...

This summer has been down right crazy for me. A whirlwind of emotion that left me down on my luck and with the wind knocked out of me.

But I don't do down for long.

I have some new motivation, editing some awesome photos, spent some time acquainting myself with Mint (seriously, get a hold of your finances), read some awesome books, listened to some great podcasts, flipped through some inspiring magazines, and picked myself up out of my pity party. Now I am ready to clean house of the clutter, and take on a new adventure. Maybe there will even be a race or two in there with all of that 😉

In the meantime, sit down, slow down, think about the big picture and enjoy a simple breakfast with who really matters. This Vanilla French Toast isn't covered in a fancy topping, stuffed with anything insane, or a complicated recipe that requires hours of prep and intense instructions. It's a simple, classic French toast recipe...

  1. I can't believe it's almost the end of July -- the summer is going by in a snap! I think we all struggle with marking off our summer to-dos, still so many things on my list, too. I'm a big fan of Mint -- been using it for a few years and it really helped me get on top of my financial life. Don't be too hard on yourself -- this too shall pass.

    I hope things turn around for you soon! There is still time to enjoy the rest of summer:-)

    And it's been way too long since I had french toast, time to stock up on challah!

    French toast is best when it's simple like this! I just finished listening to The 7 Habits and I think because his voice is soooo boring, I really didn't get much out of it. I should probably read it. I also subscribed to the The Lively Show about 10 minutes ago. Uhhh... are we the same person right now?

    I hope things are looking up for you! 🙂
