Egg Lorraine Baguette Boat

Either the taste is awful or it was not at all as easy as it seemed, or it just isn’t very pretty. I think there is a whole Pinterest fails community that addresses this.

I'm P.C. I think I am like most people. Somewhere in the middle between food snob and food schlub. Just being in the kitchen makes me happy. I live, mostly in my kitchen, in my hometown of Memphis, Tennessee.
