What is your favourite colour?

NanKate Sat 22-Aug-15 20:18:48

When I was 18 I smoked menthol ciggies for a couple of years to show off. Stopped when I realised what a waste of money they were. I knew little about the bad health problems that came with smoking.

Which do you prefer, scrambled, fried, poached or other for your eggs ?

Soft boiled or baked with cream and cheese.
