Here is all the proof you need that breakfast doesn’t have to be a drab, featureless affair.
Especially when you are talented as Etoni Mama and can turn eggs, which let’s face it are yummy and nutritious but not usually the culinary belles of the visual ball, into works of pop culture art.
They are to use my 30 plus-years-olds Japanese “totemo kawaii” and honestly are so gorgeous that eating them is almost a crime.
But eat you shall, happy that you have a such delicious food and that you got to spend breakfast with such adorable cartoon company.
