From BakeandDestroy.net:
Apologies all around for the delay in creating this post – the judges had a tough time deciding and somehow managed to vote equally in favor of three different entries!

From BakeandDestroy.net:
One of the most popular recipes in my book so far has been my Honky Tonk French Toast. I used the combo of peanut butter and banana typically named for a certain swivel-hipped singer and gave it the ass-kicking capabilities of the Elvis-impersonating pro-wrestler you all know and possibly love, The Honky Tonk Man.
