por favor is *if you please* in FRENCH......
ROFL
French Press..
I have never personally had one, but a physician I worked for did and he would grind his own beans every morning and make his own coffee in it, rather than just the regular stuff we drank. I believe I tasted it once and it was very good, stronger than the regular coffee but of course that may depend on the type of beans you grind, etc. He was a coffee-fanitic!
french press
Love mine! I started with a glass one but then found a thermal one which will keep the coffee hot longer.
RVSP is French for
Respond if you please (respondevous si vou ple)not positive of my spelling here)!
That doesn't mean 'respond if it pleases you' it means kindly respond either way.
As to the rudeness, it could possibly be ignorance/indifference - each generation seems to be less well-mannered.
French toast sm
I always made my own either with Texas toast or regular, but I happened upon some Murray's French Toast sticks at Wal-Mart one Mother's Day and bought it just because there was a time frame debate and used it in a pinch since it was already made, etc. It went over better than my own and saved me a big mess and have used these sticks from then on, just pop them in a flat pan and then when they go, open another box and pop them in the oven when I see the dish getting empty. Just a thought. Several different kinds of juice available always helps as well, of course. Sounds like fun! Bacon is another big hit, even though it's not healthy, the guys really go for it and you can make it ahead. Time is the only problem, with people arriving at different times, some things have to be precooked.
Baked French Toast
I made this Thanksgiving weekend for breakfast. You start it the night before so it can sit overnight in the fridge. It is so simple and quick, and is absolutely delicious! Everyone loved it!
Note: I sprinkled cinnamon on the top just before baking. Can't have French Toast without cinnamon!
BAKED FRENCH TOAST
Ingredients:
8 eggs
1 1/2 cups milk
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla
8 slices of 3/4 inch thick Italian bread, cut in half.
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup maple syrup
2 tablespoons brown sugar
Directions:
Mix eggs, milk, brown sugar and vanilla. Pour half of the mixture in the bottom of a 13 X 9 pan. Lay the bread out in the pay and pour the rest of the mixture on top. Flip the bread over so that it's all coated. Cover and let sit in the fridge overnight.
Melt butter in a second 13 x 9 inch pan. Stir the brown sugar and maple syrup into the butter. Move your soaked bread into the pan with the butter mixture. Cook at 350 for 30-45 minutes, depending on desired brownness.

Has anyone used a French press coffee maker? sm
if so, did you like it or dislike it? Thanks!
I doubt this explanation....roux is french
Roux in French means to cook equal amounts of butter/flour together to make/thicken sauces.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roux
However, medically speaking here's a descript. of what name means/comes from:
The name (Roux-en-Y) comes from the restructuring of the small intestine to form a Y-shaped structure. One arm of the Y carries digestive juices and the other carries food. The two arms come together farther down the intestine where digested food can be absorbed.

Oh, oh I know the answer to the French fries questions, because....
They way the potatoes are sliced/cut is a french technique (julienne).
Adam is all over the internet with his own French kissing but
not with a member of the opposite sex. Oh-la-la
I thought "s'il vous plait" was if you please in French.

Rachel Ray had the cutest looking french toast cups yesterday. sm
She soaked the bread in eggs, milk, vanilla, nutmeg, cinnamon mixture and put the bread into a muffin pan so that they made a little cup (you cut a slit in the bread and it forms a cup when put in the muffin hole). Baked them and then filled them with fruit and topped with maple syrup and bacon pieces. Looked really good. I am going to try that this year!
On vacation I had Bananas Foster french toast. Breakfast buzz! nm

I've been told I have bats in my attic...and that I'm a french fry short of a happy meal, too!
French toast using texas test bar-b-que bread. Yummy. Potato casserole is sm

southern style potatoes frozen (ore-ida)
1 can cream of chicken soap
8 ounces sour cream
1 stick butter
1 package mild cheddar cheest
mix all ingredients and bake for 45 minutes
Then if you want to add a meat such as ham or bacon you can do that.
