As I peeled myself off the couch and started the coffee pot I pulled out my small cast iron skillet. I love this little gem because it was what my father used for most of his hunting years. Each time I touch the handle I remember him. Oh Well, back to make a couple of fried eggs and hoping to greet the day. As the skillet heated up with a nice bit of butter I smacked the freshly gathered egg on the side of the pan as I have done a thousand times before. It did not crack. I smacked it a bit harder but still with the care of not wishing to have shell in the pan. Nothing. Crap I know I am feeling a tad weak but seriously...
With the lack of patience that can of late come upon me quickly I SMACK the egg on the black metal side of the pan with more force then I would like to admit and just then it bounced out of my hand and hit the floor.... OH MY GOSH GRACE - you silly goose you took the wooden egg out of the nesting box .... I think it is time to rest and get a grip on things....
