"breakfast meal" news and stories

Not really sure why this is called Wife Saver French Toast (I'd love to hear the story of how they came up with the name for it - I imagine a wife mad at her husband and he has to make his own breakfast that morning), but it sounds quite good.

Note: it's not a recipe for French Toast where you just dip the bread in liquid and throw it in a pan. You have to soak this overnight and then bake it in the oven for 50 minutes. So maybe the wife got mad at the hubby the night before and had to really plan this out for the next day's breakfast. (It also says to use "French bread," which I assume means the kind in the pic above and not square slices of thick toast?)

I have this interest in celebrity recipes that I can't explain. Maybe I just like to picture TV and movie stars with an apron on in their kitchen, making salads and homemade ice cream and basting turkey, happily serving their guests. I did a big post a while back about Frank DeCaro's site, which has a bunch of recipes from various personalities, from Burt Reynolds to Vanna White.

After the jump is a recipe from Golden Girl Bea Arthur. Maybe it's something you'll try this morning.
