Seen here is the star-shaped fried eggs. *wink*It's a bit more work to do this but I like to see how the kids sitting at the table waiting to see what shapes will their eggs be like.

But it's better than nothing.Now, where are my cheques from Advertlets and Nuffnang, which I have requested on 4 January?!
