EGGS-ACTLY RIGHT!

Thank God IT'S FRIDAY! Or thank God if it is Monday,

or Tuesday, or any other day of the week. We have a

lot to be thankful for and every day should be filled with

gratitude to live yet another day. And thankful to live

in the USA . With all her problems, she is still the

best nation on earth, in my opinion.

Guess what, I ate an egg this morning! I probably

do not eat a half-dozen a year scrambled or fried. I

bake with them and I like deviled eggs but I really could

live without them entirely. But this morning I made

myself a loaded omelet. Bacon bits, diced peppers,

and cheese. then I had to have catsup. This egg

was a medium size but when I broke it, it had two

yolks. That rarely happens, and I really do not

like to think about it, but anyway.........I am

reminded of an old Archie Bunker show where

he was gagging and carrying on because Edith

said she liked hog jowl and he said, "I can't

believe you'd eat something from a hog's

mouth." To which Edith calmly replied,

"Well, Archie, you eat eggs, don't you?

Nuff sed. I am making a meat loaf for

supper and the aroma is reachin in here.

I don't make one often as there's only the

two of us. I like it cold for sandwiches later.

Not on my son's favorite list, though he

likes spaghetti, lasagna and burgers. I

tell him it is all the same ingredients but

he insists that it isn't. (I also tell him that

Mexican is all the same, just different

names prepared a little differently.

My meatloaf is pretty good. I have

eaten others that I like better than mine.

I use oatmeal for a binder and to slip

in something good for us, and NO!

I do not use an egg in it , do you?

WIPE-OUT!

That's an old surfing term, wipe-out that is, from back

in my younger days. Oh, well, in my imagination, at least.

Fact is, I wrote a rather long post on January 5, and totally

erased it, and I do not know what I did. Guess I'll test the

tides by publishing this before I go any farther. I was quite

annoyed and I pouted a few days before trying again. I wish

I wasn't such a novice at the computer. Heck, you should

have seen the ancient Remington that I learned to type on,

then you'd say, "You've come a long way, baby!"

In case I lose this and it floats forever out there in cyberspace,

I have only one thing to say, and that is:

Life's a beach, isn't it?

Life's a beach,
