Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I think eggs are tricky because they're harder to stretch than things like hamburger, especially if you can't afford vegetables.
Scrambled eggs and hamburger! It was actually funny in a sad way when a friend of mine realized that all of her family "comfort food" meals were actually poor food meals -- various combinations of rice, eggs, hamburger, and frozen vegetables.

Lawmakers Find $21 A Week Doesn't Buy a Lot of Groceries.
While I think it's awesome that some of them are actually trying to do this, I can't help but think, "Um, dude, have you never had to grocery shop on a budget before?"
I mean, I've definitely gone through periods in my life where I couldn't regularly afford meat or fresh produce. And right now I'm having trouble getting my food budget down because healthy food costs so damn much.

This is why I should never post about food. Now I totally want hamburger and rice and frozen green beans with soy sauce on it.

The other thing with eggs, as a single person, is I find it hard to eat as many eggs as would be needed to go through a dozen-- so I just tend to do without-- and they are harder to stretch-- although I have seen a scrambled egg/spaghetti combo.

You know what I have for lunch? Homemade black bean soup (with bacon!) and fresh raspberries and blackberries.
It's not lunchtime yet. I find this vexing.

It takes eggs a really long time to go bad, though. I eat one a week at best, and the dozen is fine.

Did I mention I have irrational "food going bad" issues....
