    Who can forget what we cooked up at Gini's last year.....
    Deflated Peep anyone???

    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    why would you want to dip soldiers into runny eggs There must be an explanation better than the mental image that presents

    By soldiers I think cavylove means "toast points" or something similar. I cut my toast into strips for dipping in the yolk....and that's no yolk..... BTW, I remembered back in the early 80's when a friend told me you could nuke a bratwurst.....but she neglected to tell me to stab it a few times first. There nothing quite so ugly as an exploded weinie.

    Deviled eggs and a near suicide

    Years ago, when I was married, it was my responsibility to make deviled eggs for a boat load (really...it was a boat club) of people. I was newly married, couldn't cook worth a hoot....so I went to the market and bought a few dozen of eggs. I boiled them, and then TRIED to peel them to begin the process of making the filling etc. Well, none of the eggs would peel without falling apart. It was as though the shell was glued on the egg. I wasted so many eggs, cried, got yelled at the entire time. I felt like such a failure. My husband (soon to be ex) was no help and made me feel even worse. To tell you the truth, I don't know what we took to the party in place of the eggs, but it had to be one of my lowest points in my marriage.

    Sad isn't it!????!!!

    I still do like deviled eggs and have since learn to NOT buy fresh eggs and expect them to peel nicely.

    I have also set a bagel on fire in the microwave, but I will save that story for another time.

    and somehow this statement goes well with the following post from SAS! Perhaps this is what she should have tried!

    Oh, and to think I have only exploded eggs! I've led such a boring life!

    Yup, "soldiers" are strips of buttered toast that you dip in soft boiled eggs.

    Not until you explain what "the old E.W. trick" is.
