Usually I fail at the final flip and end up just turning it into scrambled eggs. Not today!

Anyone else riding high on an early-morning success?

    Excellent! (Eggcellent?) “scrambled eggs with benefits” is very clever and put a smile on my face this morning.

      Haha, thanks.

      Don’t recall exactly when I started calling them that, but I’ve effed up a lot of omelettes over the years giving me plenty of opportunities to come up with something. lol

    Got a new bed, last night was the first night of sleep on it. Feel great! The old one was killing me.

    Also, I call failed omelettes as you’ve described ‘scromlettes.’ Scrambled + omelette, heh

      cannot emphasize this enough for folks. if your current quality of sleep is poor, do not cheap out in investing in a nice mattress. it’s a night and day difference, literally!

        I forget the saying, but it’s something like “never skimp on things that go between you and the ground” and applies to things like mattresses, shoes, chairs, etc.

      Replaced my mattress a couple years ago, and yes! That is an amazing next morning for sure.

        This is the first time I’m using a memory foam-type mattress. It’s always been coil spring before. It’s different for sure, but I can’t believe how much better I feel this morning. We also upgraded from a queen -> king, so now my wife and I are able to get some space when we need it so we’re not elbowing each other constantly. The only shit thing is how fucking expensive these things are, yikes

    Ha, ha, that’s awesome! I know both the feeling of cooking success and failure. Good for you, my dude!

    Now, if someone can just teach me how I can make crispy style hash browns that don’t end up being somehow burnt and mushy at the same time!!

      I’m convinced those are unicorns that only exist in truck stop diners. lol If you figure that one out, please share!

      That’s always a success when it happens (at least for an insomniac like me). Also, I’m sorry to report that I’m part of the Sunday mower brigade. lol. If it’s any consolation, my mower is electric and is like 20% quieter than the usual gas-powered ones.

    I actually decided to take thins in a different direction. I went to make regular scrambled eggs, but simply forgot the salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder, leading to the blandest scrambled eggs possible. I set the bar low and fell short. Whoops.

      Oof! 😬

      I haven’t intentionally made scrambled eggs in years. Every time I’ve had them is because I effed up an omelette. lol.
