daily bliss: sunday breakfast

Dip homemade milk loaf in a mixture of egg, milk, cinnamon, brown sugar, vanilla, and bourbon. Cook in skillet filmed with butter until crisp.

Meanwhile, combine frozen local peaches, sugar, vanilla bean, and butter in a saucepan. Cook until peaches are thawed, and sauce thickens.

Toast pecan pieces.

Warm local maple syrup (if, like me, you eschew a microwave, you can place the little pitcher atop your coffeemaker and the escaping steam will gently warm the syrup).

Enjoy, while looking at a wet, grey day of snowmelt and watching ESPN game day preview (laughing at the goofy graphics and hokey interviews since this channel is still a strange, new land).

Taste summer. Taste luxury. Taste love.
