With the threat of a winter storm looming, Atlanta ran out to buy bread. Like, pretty much all of it.

Now that Helena is on her way without too much of a calamity, what to do with all that bread? French toast, of course. Al Stilo of Gwinnett County got to work promptly putting his family's storm supply to good use.
