Please excuse the typos in my last posting. The words I meant to use were fancy (not fandy and English (not Englkish. Some days even my fingers won't cooperate with me.

It was good! I like my toast a little softer, so I toasted it less. I just used the ranch dressing I had instead of buttermilk. This made it a little tangy, so next time I'd use the buttermilk. I also made closed faced sandwiches, put sauce on both pieces, and used wheat bread. Hope the people I made it for like it.
