nigella says: breakfast bruschetta

"i never ever skip breakfast"
and 
"there is, for me, no bad way to eat bread." 

i have eaten the avocado bruschetta for breakfast
it is divine
my dad gave me a strange look
as if to say 
"really chloe? that for breakfast?"
of course dad!
i love a non-breakfast food for breakfast
a nice change from the usual
