Michael Zee knows how to make a delicious and beautiful breakfast spread, and when he started creating appetizing symmetric breakfasts for himself and his boyfriend Mark van Beek, Instagram just ate it up!

"People wonder if I’m crazy or obsessive," Zee told the Guardian, "but it is a declaration of love, really. I'm dedicated – both to breakfast and to Mark." He sometimes preps the night before and he hasn't missed a day in a YEAR! They also try to follow different international breakfast traditions to keep things interesting.

I like the effort and the color and the style of all. I don't think quite a few people would be satisfied by the portion size. I hope someone is there who likes cleanup. Lucky receiver of all this work and attention!
