A Loaf of le toast.

Cinnamon raisin bread, an already exemplary breakfast food has been abused in the name of science.

14 slices of cinnamon raisin bread, or one whole loaf. (note to self: leaving out overnight turned out excellent, think about trying even farther next time.  Leave 2++ out every night before?)
6 eggs
2.5 cups of milk
2 dashes of salt
2 tbsp vanilla (note to self: could probably increase a small amount)
4 tbsp cinnamon (note to self: cinnamon on cinnamon bread.  think more next time)
1 dash nutmeg (note to self: more you fool)

1 bowl for dipping
2 cooling(dripping) racks
1 baking sheet (drip catching sheet)

1 pan, large enough to fit 2 slices
1 whole lot of butter, enough to have at least a half tablespoon between cooking pairs

Custard made night before, bread left out on cooling racks (for maximum dryage) overnight.
30 second dip, each side, transfered to converted dripping racks placed over drip catching sheet for minimum 2 minutes.
Buttered pan for each cook (fry?). 2-3 minutes each side, set on 5 (tended to be 2).  After fry (cook?) placed on dripping racks re-purposed again to cooling racks.  Once rack sufficiently filled (read: too full to fit more on comfortably without stacking) placed in over for 5-6 minutes at 350.

Immeasurable amounts of success.  Requires further study of gastro-awesomeness created.
