Thanksgiving morning after a long walk with the dogs a marathon of eating and drinking began! Oh there was football too. Well my mom baked up a tasty French Toast Casserole! The photo does not do this dish justice. Unfortunately, I wasn’t around before the first person enjoyed their breakfast. 🙂
It would be perfect for Christmas morning too.

We had a few glasses of Champagne too. Here’s another bottle from Wilson Creek. Check it out, it’s Orange Mimosa! Perfect for breakfast if I must say.
