Green eggs and ham

AKA: Pesto scrambled eggs

Pesto:

Pine nuts
Fetta
Olive oil

No measurements, it's all to taste really :D
Mash it all up in a bowl with one end of a rolling pin. (Or mortar and pestle)


Equals D is a collective photo blog my friend invited me to :D

On a different note. I saw this waist trench coat + cons look that I've been wanting to try but everytime I'm back at my parents it's so hot. Yesterday I was there again, pondering for a quick second if I should bring it just incase but it was like 40degrees, so I didn't.
Today, it's like 17 and storming. :/
