I have news! First, for the last eighteen months or so (with time off to procreate), Wallybee's been learning to drive. She had her driving test this week, and passed at her first attempt. She's feeling pretty happy about it.
Meanwhile, I've spent the last couple of months doing an Accounting unit for my Master Maestro of Finance. This is the only accounting unit in the course, which suits me fine. They've just released the results, and I got 98%. I'm certainly not complaining about that in and of itself, but the truly important message to take away from this is that I don't have to do any more accounting ever again; and I'm feeling very happy about that.
Congratulations, bt and wallybee.
That is good news, bt!
Lilty was here! Come back, Lilty!
Hello, Lilty! ...Lilty?
Yay for driving and not doing any more accounting, respectively, Wallybee and billytea!
Eggs cooked in olive oil taste funny. Eggs must be cooked in butter.
If I'd been unschooled, I'd probably have learned math, sans the terror of my fifth grade teacher. I taught myself to read and read everything I could get my hands on.
Cass, that's one of the best life stories I've ever heard.
I'm going to pimp again the ATK scrambled egg technique where you freeze the butter, cut it into chunks and stir in with the beaten eggs and then cook over very low heat. They are awesome, even made with egg substitute.

The other day I fried some eggs in scallion oil (to put on top of a Taiwanese noodle bowl) and they were extra-nummy. But for breakfast, butter is absolutely necessary.
Eggs cooked in goose grease!
Use whatever lube ya like, just keep your mitts off the spatula until they are almost done.
brenda, that sounds so good I'm going to go freeze some butter right now. Also, if I had goose grease, I'd cook an egg in it. Hmm, I wonder how eggs taste cooked in bacon grease? The key here seems to be "animal fat" not "vegetable oil", for me.
Eggs in bacon grease are also excellent, I can vouch.
