The Incredible Edible Exploding Egg

[jackofallgeeks]

So, I decided last night that I wanted to have hard-boiled eggs for dinner.

Unfortunately, I ended up getting involved in catching up on emails after
putting the eggs on.
Eggs will explode if they're left on the stove after the water has all
boiled away.
I made hamburgers.

OK,... that is freakin' hysterical!

Love it.

I've discovered (for future reference) that the eggs turn out best if put in the water after it has started to boil, and are left there for 11-12 minutes. Set your watch to beep at you, that will help you remember. :-)

Better luck next time!

Now I want hard boiled eggs.
...The non-exploding kind.

Boys who cook for themselves amuse me greatly. Perhaps I should type you up some fool proof recipes that are quite tasty?

You're such a boy.

In related news.. my boyfriend and his friend had to figure out how to use the toaster oven today. I was too busy to help them. It sounded like they were trying to figure out rocket science.
For example: It took them 3 minutes, of trial and error with all the knobs, to realize how to turn it ON.

I'll admit, I was highly amused. I might have even giggled.
