¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
8 bread slices

Preheat the toaster oven to 350 degrees F. Put the walnuts on a baking tray and toast for 5 minutes. Let cool to room temperature. In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, the 3 tablespoons maple syrup, the cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla and stir to blend. Toast the bread. Spread one-fourth of the cream cheese mixture on each of 4 slices and sprinkle with the walnuts. Drizzle with a little maple syrup. Top each with a slice of plain toast. Cut each into 2, 4, or even 6 pieces (for tiny bite-sized tea sandwiches).

How bout this one?


Jonah’s Beans and Toast

2 cans (each 16 ounces) baked beans with juices, or 4 cups cooked beans, cooking liquid reserved
2 tablespoons grated yellow onion
2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme
½ cup ketchup
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 eggs
8 bread slices
Hot sauce for serving (optional)

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the beans and their juices, onion, thyme, and 1/4 cup of the ketchup and simmer for about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, in a medium skilled, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter. Crack the eggs into the pan, cover, and cook for about 4 minutes for medium-cooked yolks. Toast the bread and spread the remaining 2 tablespoons butter on the slices. Place 2 slices, buttered-side up and overlapping slightly, on each of the 4 plates.

The Herd Was Wrong On Nabors Industries

Hello,

Mind you, I am a long, and have never shorted a stock. But, I did happen to mention NBR on my blog starting on December 06. In one of those comments, I mentioned I thought the stock could go as low as $25. Thanks for the article. :)

Hey Mark Cuban, Is The Stock Market Still 'For Suckers'?
