Chicken & Egg Salad.

Hmm.. it's been some time since I last asked the readers of this blog some questions/feedback. I was just wondering.. I get an average of 60 readers per day from all over the world and it would be great to know what kind of food you like. Would you prefer this blog to have more dessert pictures or do you like a regular dose of the food I eat everyday.. simple daily recipes that I tweak to my own taste? Leave a comment or just say hi! :)
