Ahhh I know it's not too glamorous of a topic but I was just so taken with the shear beauty of the finished product I had to snap a pic.  Heck, if Stormy posted this you guys & gals would be going on for 5-6 pages. :)

My Grandmother left me a really cool old egg poacher that was basically three little cups for the eggs sitting over a shallow pan of boiling water. (think antique; my Grandmother died in 1974). The eggs were perfect every time whether I wanted them soft  boiled or hard boiled. Very simple.

I can't imagine the scumbags who broke into my house and robbed me 17 years ago cared about an old egg poacher, so there's a chance I still have it somewhere. After moving 10 times in 10 years, I've lost a lot of cool stuff though.

Those eggs look great Larry! That's how I like them as well.

And my Grandmother ( they lived behind us ) made soft boiled eggs for me . Had these little stand / holders for them, broke off the top of the shell with your spoon , then dipped sliced toasted and buttered bread in them to eat the yolk ,then spooned out the rest .

Maybe I can sneak one of those in before we eat the corn beast & cabbage tonight. :)

Can you hard boil farm fresh eggs?!? I heard not possible.

My favorite is sunny up, well done bottoms, cooked right in the bacon pan after that’s fried up and placed over hash.

Can’t beat a hard boiled egg for a breakfast on the run though

If we were neighbors I’d want to be up wind, but you’d have all the eggs you could eat.
