Sugared Bread

I have been thinking a lot about Grandma Dawkins today.  Not her specifically, but of all the treats she made us for little expense, i.e. sugar cookies, homemade popcorn.  One treat I am craving today is sugared bread.  Simple.  Take one slice of bread and sprinkle sugar on it.  Then shake the bread for even distribution.  Eat!  Another more decadent version is to take a slice of bread and spread with butter, then sprinkle with sugar.  Shake off excess sugar.  Eat!  Sprinkle a little cinnamon on top of the sugar, broil, and you have......ta da - cinnamon toast.  Eat!  I can attest that any version of these three sugared breads are delicious.  Do you guys remember eating this?  Do you remember butter and honey - the honey in the waxed cartons?  Sioux Bee??  Anything grandma made was always better than anything we had at home. 

And just when you thought there was nothing in the house for your kids' after school snack!!!!  Sugar   'em up!

Love you guys!
