OK, I admit I’d eat almost anything if wrapped in a sheet of nori, but I do tend to steer clear of California rolls. I’m offended by the fake crab-like substance, and really, why is it called a California roll anyway (I think it is actually because there is avocado in it)? But strangely enough, […]
For me, it had to have been the fried egg that accompanied my banana chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast this morning. There’s just something about an over-easy egg that comforts me.
