Am I the only one here that actually likes EATING eggs?????

My grandfather used to make brunch for the family on Sunday while we all were at church.

We came home to softboiled eggs, a half grapefruit in which he carefully cut all the slices right next to the skin so we ate the entire fruit with no waste. and cut up slices of toast which I happily dipped in my egg. ahhhhhh, heaven!!!!

My grandfather could make any meal the most wonderful experience of ones life. What a talent he had.

Your grandfather made "brunch"? Wow, he must have been ahead of his time.
indeed he was. in more ways than one!

And why the hell wasn't your grandfather at church?
because there's this unspoken "rule" that once a man has spent time in the trenches he doesn't have to go to church. He's basically paid his dues. anyway, he didn't have to atone for anything. He was a good person, a nurturing person which is why he went into the "food business". It's what he loved to do.

Awww, what you should have said is:
Is it true that the English wear bowler hats, pinstripe suits, carry an umbrella ('brolly), drink tea religiously mid-afternoon, are insular but multi-cultural at the same time, can be at turns friendly and very cold, arrogant, ignorant, yet tolerant,
brave, but stupid, intelligent, yet naive?

;-)

how the hell do i put all that in the title of the thread????  ;-)

ok, so, after recording your results with These eggs, when the Lion Quality eggs with the heat sensative ink comes out, get and boil those and let me know how different the experience is.

I desperately need to know! :-D
