We are spreading in a pickle love all over the country, and during a recent visit to Alexandria, VA - restaurateur, Trip Howell and his lovely wife Chris brought our attention to a little nuance to a breakfast favorite. We liked it soooo much that we thought we'd share... so here it is... an incredible tasty french toast made with Bailey's Irish Cream, yep it adds that little extra... extra... top that off with a few in a pickle touches like our Apple Bourban jam, and a dab of whipped cream and you've got a breakfast that we call a LOVE CONNECTION. Lovely presentation, Lovely tastes, Love... Love... Love!
