Someone should care, maybe not you....

My thoughts on many things including the army, war, politics, the military corrections system, chaos, life, books, movies, and why there is no blue food. Feel free to comment on what I say. Feedback is nice.

Fried eggs

Well since I really don't give a rat's ass about some prosecutors that got fired and I don't believe that there is some dark neferious evil scheme behind their firings, I won't delve into that mess at this time.

You all have seen in the past that I can cook. I can even do a pretty good job of it most of the time. What I have noticed that I cannot seem to do at all is fry an egg. Oh it gets fried but it is never that pretty oval with the yolk in the center egg like I see others come up with. Mine look a lot more like a burrito as it scrunches and rolls as I try and turn the damned thing. It isn't a big thing you know, but it is a bit annoying.

On a natural science turn here, I noticed the other day that my pear trees had honey bees busily working the flowers. My blueberries on the other hand had bumble bees and carpenter bees. they are right next to each other so I thought that was a bit strange and I mentioned it to my old fencing coach who happens to be a retired entomologist. He promptly lets me know that honeybees' mouth parts aren't big enough to get into a blueberry's flower so only the bigger bugs can service it. Now you know something new too.

Try putting a cover over the egg for 30 seconds. Don't turn it.

Also, make sure the pan is hot before you put the egg in. To soon and it sticks.

And you generally need to remove eggs from the heat before you think they're done. They keep cooking for a minute or two after they're out of the pan, and there's a pretty thin line between done and over-done.

(Maybe we should start another blog. "Red Food, Blue Plate".)
