If you're wondering what the heck this is a picture of - you're probably not alone. It's random. It's weird. And you're probably wondering why exactly I'm posting it. Let's just say...that small crack that is inevitable between your counter and stove/oven + a raw egg don't mix so well...Here's how my Sunday morning started out... Please note the time on the clock. That's right - it was 6:21 in the morning...on a Sunday...and I'd already been awake for almost an hour. But that's OK - I needed to be up early anyways to get a workout in before we started our crazy busy (but super fun!) day.
So onto the story... Maybe it was the lack of coffee. Maybe it was just the ungodly hour in general. All I know is I was going about my morning and making myself some eggs. Nothing unusual there. I do it every single day. So I'm going about my business - lalalala blah blah blah - I know what I'm doing. Except - oopps - one cracked a biiiit too much and before I know it a raw egg has vanished down that little, tiny crack. Yeah that's right. Whoosh - it was just gone. I stood there for a minute cursing to myself as I envisioned that raw egg just sliding down the outside of the cabinet and oven and making one helluva mess. Hmmm - my first thought was to flip out and get hysterical - that's just my natural instinct in stupid, annoying situations like this. But the hubs was still upstairs sleeping (like most normal people) and I did not want to have to wake him up over something silly like this. So I took a deep breath, finished cooking my eggs (ain't nothin' going to come between this girl and her food....priorities, people, priorities!), cleared everything away, and then like Superwoman was able to pull the oven out so I could clean up myself. I think I used an entire roll of paper towels....have you ever tried cleaning up raw eggs? Yeah it's not easy (side note - as I was telling this story to the hubs later...he goes 'Oh just pour some salt on it - it'll clean up much quicker.' Gee - thanks, babe. Where was this little tid bit of information when I actually needed it?!) But at least I know now as do ya'll - the hubs says You're Welcome! So even though my Sunday didn't start out the greatest the rest of the day went great and that is all that matters <3 Ooooh weekends, how I love thee... PS ~ this might just be the most random post ever. And I'm OK with that :)
