Thanks for starting this, Starrsville!

And since we're on the recipe topic... How in the heck do you get Egg in the Hole right?? I just tried making this after seeing it in V For Vendetta the other night, and I screwed it up. There was still runny egg white stuff in the hole and the rest of the egg and toast was quite well done. (eeuuww!)

So, my question is, how do you find out if the white stuff in the hole is still runny without poking the yellow part?? I tried it 4 times! (Good thing DH doesn't mind being a test subject!)

Cut the hole in the bread bigger so the egg touches more of the pan surface and cooks more? How about microwaving it? I bet you could cook it perfectly on your car engine.

Hmmm... didn't think of trying the car engine! I did try different sized holes though.

By the way, what in the world does your ice cream taste like?

Careful with the microwave! Word has it the yolk will explode if not pricked beforehand.

We don't own a microwave anyhow, but thanks for the tip!

OO, oh mean me, that was the idea - egg yolk all over the microwave.

The beer ice cream was TERRIBLE. I saw so many raves on it and my fireman son-in-law to be was so proud to have made it but it tasted like yeast dough batter mixed in with ice cream. He made a root beer float with it. (gag yuck yuck) Perhaps we should have used Bud instead on Guinness .

We had Egg in the Hole this morning, cuz I could not find grits in Whole Foods!

Use a drinking glass to cut the hole in the bread.

> B'BUM!!!!!
The only way that would be a disaster is if there wasn't enuff yummy food and delicious wine for the both of us!

Right ***kim***? ><
If you come up for the Sierra Shootout we'll hit Venita Rhea's or La Provance. Mrs Kal and I volunteered to work the shootout. Should be fun! >-

Scarlett, you should have looked for polenta. Of course whole paycheck wouldn't have grits cause you can't charge as much for it as you can POLENTA.

Boiled water

fill pot with water and heat
when little bubbles rise to the surface remove from heat.
serve hot.

For a cool and oh so refreshing low cal drink let stand for twenty minutes then refrigerate for one hour. Adding ice makes this a festive party favorite.

WATER...... It has been scientifically proven that if we drink 1
liter of water each day, at the end of the year we would have
absorbed more than 1 kilo of Escherichia coli bacteria found in
feces, in other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of poop !
However, we do not run that risk when drinking beer because alcohol has to go through a distillation process of boiling, filtering and fermenting.
WATER = Poop
BEER = HEALTH
Free yourself of Poop, drink BEER!!! It is better to drink beer and talk crap than to drink water and be full of crap.
There is no need to thank me for this valuable information, I am doing it as a public service. Have a nice day...

I have a Recipe for Diaster, too, but I lost it during the last basement flood, when both septic tanks backed up into the downstairs bathroom, right after the tree blew down across the driveway and we went to check on it and got the golf cart stuck in the mud, right before the pond level sank so low that the fish died and we found weird critters in the outdoor jacuzzi the day before it rained so hard the jacuzzi cover broke from the weight of the water.

This was my July 2006. . . sigh, pass the Tanqueray.

Yeah, I'd rather have the beer too but my body handles the poop better these days than the beer.
