Overnight French Toast

Wow-2 updates in one day!! I have to make up for lost time! This recipe is amazing! First of all, who doesn't love french toast?! Second of all, who doesn't love a meal that takes 10 minutes to put together; then you can just forget all about it, come home from work, and dinner is hot and ready! I do, I do, I do!!! I guess for most "normal people" this is more of a throw together at night, go to sleep, and wake up to hot french toast kind of meal! But we love to have breakfast for dinner. We're weird like that.

So here it is! My new favorite "go-to" meal for crazy days, just like today was! Enjoy!
