Michael Zee may very well be vying for the title of World's Best Boyfriend: Every day, for almost two years, he has made yummy and visually delectable breakfasts for himself and his boyfriend, Mark van Beek.

Zee has turned the sweet act into a daily photo project, called Symmetry Breakfast. From Eggs Benedict to French toast, Zee turns all of his breakfast foods into beautiful works of art. Not only is the project a testament to Zee's appreciation for the most important meal of the day, it's also a simple way to show his significant other that he cares.

"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."

You can check out more of Zee's symmetrical breakfasts on his Instagram and his website.
