Warm up your fall nights with this Toasty Recipe

The changing colors and cool crispness of the fall season are upon us. Time for hot toddies, cozy socks, and quiet intimate evenings spent with friends and family. A staff member of ours shared this delicious recipe with me, that I’d like to pass on to you. Bread pudding is one of my favorite treats, having had my first taste of it in New Orleans. I was instantly hooked to its comforting simplicity. Originally known as “poor man’s pudding” and created as a delicious way to recycle old bread, I love this recipe for its down to earth goodness. Somehow, it seems like the perfect Autumn dessert. I plan on making it this weekend.
Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at Accent Cruises!
