Some Tips

Egg related:
While boiling eggs, put a hole with a pin on the rounded portion of the egg so that the shell won't break when boiling.

Keep boiled eggs in cold water for 5 minutes, this will make removal of the shell easier.

Cut boiled eggs with a knife dipped in hot water to avoid breaking.

Boiled eggs will last longer, if you store the shelled eggs in a bowl of cold water in a refrigerator.

Hmm, and to think, I have just been putting live chickens in the microwave for years to get hard boiled eggs!

That's hilarious! LOL hey I've got one, a spoon is a fine kitchen tool. With it one can easily stir a pot of soup or smack the hands of naughty people trying to eat your ingredients. What a wonderful multi-tasker.

Yeah, and pot holders are great for taking hot pans out of the oven. For years I had been receiving third degree burns until I read a post about them. No more crispy hands for me!
