That picture looks amazing! I often added a bit of cream cheese while whisking the eggs before putting them in the pan. And I add some greated cheese while they are cooking.

I don't think it's bad at all! Maybe I have that opinion because I imagine myself getting married in an actual old barn one day. I say string of white lights, candles, draped fabric up around tha...

I second littlebrownbirds sentiment!

your sofa is beautiful!

Woo hoo for Royal Oak!
