But I detest the folks who get so precious over it all.

I can't remember what her name was, but I couldn't help laughing at her comments and then moving onto someone with some sense. :-)

A *HALF* hour to learn how to boil and EGG? SHEESH!

[tejas]

WTF??? Why the devil not? Like I'm going to sit around for an hour, or even five minutes, for it to reach room temperature.

Y'know, I've been boiling eggs for over 40 years, and I've never let it reach room temperature *once* in all that time. I've also never had a problem with my boiled eggs.

What a doofus!

I have other things to do in my life. I'm starting to think I should write a cookbook.

People are idiots, sometimes.

Ooooo - you must let them reach room temp! Othewise they crack! Occasionally. lol - that is true, btw. Still. I don't want to wait!

[tejas]

Like having them crack is a problem. *sigh*. I probably haven't seen 1 in 20 crack because I boiled them straight from the fridge. And y'know what? They taste just as good cracked. :-)
