What a great post! I’ve never heard the bit about mixing eggs with water; I’ve always gone the milk route after also seeing my mom do it.

I just can’t believe you were into foods like smoked oysters and wild mushrooms as a kid. I’m STILL not into them.

What a great story! You were so talented since you were young. I’m glad your mom wasn’t mad at you that day you used up all the eggs.

I had heard the reason people add milk to the eggs is because some people don’t like the flavor of eggs so the milk tones it down.

try using a piece of bread in your egg pan to learn the flipping technique. Tip the pan forward let the egg (bread) slide a little, using your wrist give a little rolling lift to the front of the pan. When the bread slides over nicely you can move on to eggs. Don’t expect perfect over easy all the time!

I love eggs for any meals. Cannot image life without this ingredient. And I wish I could flip eggs too!
