Granny's Basic French Toast

 
4 eggs
2 tablespoons water OR
2 tablespoons milk
4 (1/2-inch thick) slices bread
3 tablespoons butter
confectioner's sugar


In a shallow baking dish, combine the eggs and water or milk and beat them lightly. Add the bread in a single layer, soaking the first side 1 to 2 minutes, then turning and soaking the other side. In a large frying pan, melt the butter over medium heat until it foams. Add the bread and cook until golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn with a spatula and cook the other side until golden, another 3 to 4 minutes. Over each, sprinkle with a little confectioner's sugar.

For every man who lives without freedom, the rest of us must face the guilt.
