I've recently started doing it with a knife. It works great when the bowl
you're using doesn't have a hard enough edge to crack the egg
appropriately.

Sounds more like a command to make her breakfast than being asked. She
says jump, you ask how high.

That's pretty much it. Don't forget, this is the meal-on-demand family.

Not long ago she was waxing rhapsodic about how her daughter figured out
how to make scrambled eggs. To me, that means she can make her own
breakfast. The bacon is already cooked, she said so. So, reheat in the
microwave and scramble an egg or two. Can't take more than 5 minutes,
10 tops.

I can't wait to hear how her daughter ate those pancakes once then
suddenly refused to eat them again. Please stand by.

There were a few kids in our high school who had their own cars. Some
worked to buy their cars and some drove their parents' cars. Only one or
two kids had cars bought for them.

Scramble eggs are so tough to cook. When I was 14 I cooked a turkey
dinner when my grandmother and my aunt came to visit with my mother in
the hospital. My aunt helped with the gravy but I had done the rest.

There doesn't seem to be much of a real world with that family. It is a
vortex of lies and confusion.

Jill, nobody told her she wasn't supposed to smash the eggshell so hard the contents would leap up

Not at all.

Mix the eggs with a whisk, a little 1/2&1/2 and a dash of salt until
well-aerated.

Then heat a non stick pan on medium low, melt a pat of butter and swirl
it all over the pan, lower the heat to low.

Add the eggs and allow to spread out in a uniform manner.

After roughly a minute gently lift with a silicone spatula from center out.

Swirl remaining loose egg mixture around the pan.

Turn the heat off and use the spatula to gently fold the eggs over until
all sides have just barely solidified.

Break up gently into smaller pieces and plate.

They key is keeping the eggs slightly undercooked and letting them
finish on the plate.

LOL! I've cracked eggshells on the countertop, absolutely. I most
often crack them against the lip of a bowl. I certainly didn't change
my method at the behest of some TV chef who said one way was better than
the other. Eggs are one of the simplest foods on the planet.

All it takes is a light crack of the shell. Then pull the shell apart
with your fingers and drop in the egg.

Therein lies the problem. She [allegedly] can't touch eggs. The
suggestion she buy disposable gloves if she can't touch eggs or whatever
was rejected in the past.

I'm thinking her daughter should just make her own breakfast. She knows
how to cook scrambled eggs. Julie told us so. Julie also buys
pre-cooked bacon so all the girl has to do is put it in the microwave
and heat it up. But as long as her mother is still awake, might as well
say "cook for me". Julie can pretend she's being asked but I really
don't think so.

Maybe Julie should think about sleeping at *night* like most people do.
Why is she on the night-shift?

Speaking of obesity rates...anyone checked out a current photo of Hone Boo Boo? I can't believe I saw
one accidentally. Now I will have to scrub my eyeballs. It was at E! Online.

Her mother always thought it was a point of pride that she was chubby during the Toddlers & Tiaras filming,
but now the poor thing is well on the way to emulate her mother in the worst way. Doesn't anyone care about
this girl? I guess not, given the rest of the females in the family.

I have never watched that show nor been a fan of that particular lifestyle, but I feel sorry for them.

So Julie is shiftless.

Jill, that was supposed to be Honey Boo Boo, who has a TLC reality show named for her and
starring her. They are a proud redneck family. Not that there is anything wrong with that. And
they do seem to be a very supportive and close family. Well, except that Mama June and the
father, known as Sugar Bear, have decided to separate.

For some unknown reason she is awake all night and still awake when her

I assume they think it's okay to ignore her lies and other bullshit,
that that's the nice and civil thing to do... and probably view much
of what she says as harmless quirks of no consequence. My view is that
ignoring it only encourages her, and that she should be confronted
with what she posts.

I view her as not benign, but harmful to herself, her family and
society in general. I mean that seriously. Julie encapsulates almost
everything I hate in a person.

Ended up in the ER again, did we? You must be one of those
thrill-seekers who love living on the edge all the time.

Okay. You made me laugh... finally!

Pre-cooked bacon?? Does that actually exist?

Same here, either method works OK IMO.

Although for poached eggs I always crack them with the edge of a
glass, then into the glass... then pour into the simmering water.

Went out and caught a nice brown trout this morning, which will be
dinner tonight. No firm plans on how I will cook it as yet.

A lot depends on the egg itself - some have harder shells than others,
but more importantly some breeds of chickens have a much tougher
membrane under the shell, which can be hard to break through without
making a mess of it.

Having said that, I would assume most commercial breeds of chickens
for egg production have had such things bred out of them.
