Family Time Weekend Recap
Happy Monday all! I hope y'all aren't melting in the heat because it is MISERABLE! Today we are going to apparently break records from the heat and be at 100 with heat index way higher. Yay. This will be me for the next week: source We went to my second cousin's graduation party. I purposely wanted to arrive about 45 minutes later than the start time. You don't want to get wrangled into setting up, babysitting, etc and that happened to people arriving earlier from what I heard so smart call on my part. Also everyone is always chit chatting and we knew if there would be food it would be about the time they'd be eating...right again. We already ate so we were good to go and then shocked the sh*t out my family when we walked in. Final goal: ✔ The grad immediately popped up and came over to hug us and be a good hostess which was so cute. She's always been a very sweet kid but also a little badass. She was the only wrest...
Great tips and that looks awesome. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI've found that if you add some baking soda to the cooking water, it helps the peels come off nice and easy.
ReplyDeleteThat is a great tip. I do something super similar but I put the eggs in the water and wait for them to boil. Then when they boil I turn off the water and set the timer for 20 min. If I let it go too long then it can get green. You know why it does that? I guess if you have too much iron or something in your water it does that. Weird.
ReplyDeleteAnywho I will definitely try the 4 min next time. Thanks.
And don't feel bad about the egg. I read somewhere that you can eat up to one egg with the yolk a day and be fine.
HUGE!!!! Thank you!!!!!!

Hubby & I live overseas at the moment (his job) and have not had decent (i.e. cooked through and through) since living here. That's three + years. I have sooo missed them that we broke down and got Eggies at a local store. They were rather tedious (i.e. quite a bit of work), but they worked. We used them only once, but did about a dozen. I have wanted to do 6 here and there, but didn't want the hassle. Then.....I came across your blog. I tend to read from the beginning of blogs and if I don't like the writing a month (per the blog that is) in, I stop reading. Since this is comment #2 (rare for me), I have to say, I like your writing. (Nope, don't give random compliments either).
OK...random rabbit trail....anywho....
When I read this post a couple hours ago, I figured....why not. I have 6 eggs in the fridge that want to go bad soon, so what's the harm? Well, just shelled and cut in half the first of those. OMStars! It was perfect!!! Granted, I tweaked your directions a tad. I started out with eggs in pot, added cold water, & boiled for 5 minutes (which USED to work before this country/house), but then....20 minutes later. *Sigh Perfect light yellow fluffy center. My taste buds thank you!!!
