French Toast

I know how to make French Toast but I get pretty inconsistent results since I do not use a recipe. I tried Bittman's recipe and found it way too wet for my liking. To make it again I reverted to my "red plaid" cook book and found that they used half the milk that Bittman used. Since I am using plain white sandwich bread I found that to be a much better consistency.
