This weekend my Bible study group on campus had a ladies' retreat up at Z5 Ranch, which is a lovely, lovely place and you all should go. I'm glad I'm an early bird, cause I was able to get some nice shots and enjoy the sunrise on my morning walk before the rain hit... But thankfully the rain went away in the afternoon and we were able to get a tour of the ranch and feed horses! :) Which was fabulous cause this country bumkin needed to get out of town... like real bad...
The focus of the retreat was vulnerability, something very applicable to all folks, but especially college people as they try to figure out what they're doing with their lives...

OVERNIGHT FRENCH TOAST:8 slices French bread
4 eggs
1 1/4 c. milk
3 T. melted butter
2 T. sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
dash of salt
Mix all ingredients (except for bread) in a bowl. Whisk until fluffy and well combined. Butter a pan and arrange bread slices. Pour wet mixture evenly over bread. Optional: lightly drizzle with maple syrup before baking. Bake at 400* for 25-30 minutes. Serve with berries, syrup, whipped cream, or all of the above!
(I used a 9x9 pan because my 9x13 was already being used. I just had to kinda pile the bread on top of each other, and smoosh them in.)
