The unintended egg
I decided to put that poor hard boiled egg out of its misery,
it's been in the refrigerator for a week or so. Joke's on me, it was not hard boiled. Breakfast: one egg, over medium. nancy |

After peeling them the first one wasn't quite done when I sliced them. I "assumed" they'd be fine for a minute in the microwave to try to finish them. One exploded and blew the door open. I'm sure you can imagine how stupid I felt after cleaning up the mess for 30 minutes. While sharing my "stupid" story with friends someone topped me. His co-worker bought a hard boiled egg from a vending machine at work, and nuked it. Her's didn't explode until she took a bite. Luckily she wasn't hurt. Being a hospital nurse she had access to a quick shower and clean scrubs. Lou |

So I put it over the little appetizer plate I was planning to use for the hard boiled egg and the salt. Opened it up and hello, raw egg. nancy |
