The photos here are of our breakfast date, nothing staged, everything just as we ate it. Looking at them gives me that warm, cozy, breakfasty feeling that you have on weekends with people you love. Thank you so much, Tara, for this beautiful book—it’s a masterpiece. The recipe is printed with permission from our friend and author Tara O’Brady’s cookbook, Seven Spoons, and it’s a total keeper! As we paged through the book, this recipe for soft boiled eggs and soldiers stood out to both of us. Though it didn’t have a corresponding photograph in the book (which always makes me stumble!), the idea of toast soldiers sounded too fun not to try. Toast soldiers are thin strips of toasted bread, often served alongside soft-boiled eggs. The shape of the toast is reminiscent of soldiers on parade, hence the name. They are designed to be dipped into the runny yolk of a soft-boiled egg, and my is it delicious! PS For bonus points, name the city where we honeymooned, based on the hidden clue in these photos.
