The Incredible Exploding Breakfast!
Sep. 8th, 2006 09:16 amThis morning, I decided I wanted eggs, but that I didn't want to do dishes.
"I know!" I thought, "I'll make an egg sandwich!"
Normally to make an egg sandwich, you take an English muffin, slice it in half and toast it. Then, you put half of it on a plate, very carefully crack an egg on top of it, and put it in the microwave for about 40 seconds. When it comes out, top it with cheese and a little butter, another 20 seconds in the microwave, put the top on and eat.
I forgot- I have an extremely powerful microwave oven in my new apartment.
At the end of the last 20 seconds, I noticed that the gas bubbles in the egg were getting a little large, so I stopped it early. As soon as I opened the door- pow! The egg blew up, all over the inside of the microwave.
What a mess. Well done egg, though.
