Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
Bread pudding, also known as "poor man's pudding," because it's normally made with stale/leftover bread. I love Bread Pudding with rum sauce, however it's important that the pudding is moist and not overcooked. When my kids were young, they wouldn't eat Rasins, so before I'd serve it to them, I would have to pick the raisins out, and top the pudding with whipped cream, not Rum Sauce.
