Day 23 - Scrambled Eggs and Scrambled Brains

Scrambled Eggs (pg. 240)

Yes indeed! Alice has the directions for scrambled eggs in TAOSF. You might think that a bit elementary, but I doubt that everyone actually knows how to cook scrambled eggs properly. It's one thing I already knew, but it was nice to learn that Alice and I see eye to eye on the subject. So, I made scrambled eggs for lunch, mostly to use up the egg white left over from making aioli. Scrambled eggs is like meatloaf -- good for using up dibs and dabs of stuff from the back of the frig. I accompanied the eggs with a couple slices of bacon and the other half of the avocado from the grapefruit and avocado salad. Quite the tasty and semi-elegant lunch.

We ran some errands and went to farmers market this morning. Our plan was to go to a movie in San Luis Obispo this afternoon and stop at our favorite pet store for cat food and kitty litter. BUT... Randy discovered a serious plumbing problem right before lunch. There is water bubbling up from below ground right outside the kitchen window. This is a serious problem for any number of reasons, not the least of which is that the exterior walls in that area are straw bale. You do NOT want to soak your straw bale walls. The &%^$(#% plumber is on his way. I ask you, does this shit ever end??? I've never seen a new house with so many problems. Scratch the movie. Cat food will be fetched from my least favorite pet store, which is much closer, later this afternoon. A small bag to tide the little hairballs over.
