French Toast (i have not made this one either yet)

Beat 8 or so eggs with light cream or whole milk. Add cinnamon and a touch of allspic...e. Next slice French Bread, the type that is long and narrow and has a crispy crust, in to slices approximately an inch to one and a half inches wide. Pour the egg mixture into a greased 9 by 13 inch glass baking dish. Spread the sliced bread to cover the mixture and then turn them over. Take about two cups of chopped pecans and sprinkle over the top of the slices of bread along with some brown sugar and cinnamon and bake at 325 degrees until they are golden but be careful not to over bake. You're going to have to watch them, sorry.
