  2. When I could see there was one comment here, I was wondering who it was. You, Mary! What is there to say except that I want a piece for breakfast. Honestly, Moiya, what a photo essay. And you tempt us on the side of photo 5 with some of my favourite bread with so many seeds, cracked wheat, whole wheat and then served as toast. Oh, I am like Mary. My mouth is watering. Thanks for the picture fun. I ho;pe I drop by when some of this is being served.
