Do you know how the hell someone can make boiling eggs FLAME?!
Becuase aparrantly, my mom can do it.
Don’t ask me how. I’m still not sure.
All I know is that dad and I were sitting in the living room, basking in the yarny goodness of a well organized stash. We heard Popping coming form the kitchen, and dad shouted at mom that her freaking eggs were exploding again and she needs to be int he kitchen with them, not on the computer.
When she cam eback through, dad asked how many exploded. Mom replied that she didn’t know, becuase the POT WAS FLAMING.
How do you make fire from eggs + water?
Someone explain this to me.
Oh, and about the yarny goodness?
One of dad’s jobs was to break down these 2 peice sets so Trula (the dept mngr) could sell the peices individually. The 2 peice sets (game controllers & memory cards) came on a 4′ endcap Corrugate. Which is a facy way of saying it was a cardboard cubby-holed display.
Breaking down the items (I helped) I looked at the corrugate.
“Wow,” says me “This would be great for yarn.”
“Trula would give it to you, but the store wouldn’t let her.”
Trula, She doesn’t take shit from anyone, but she’s sweet as candy.
“I can has?” I says to Trula.
“Take it!” She says. “Throw it on a cart and you can have it.”

A well organized stash sparks my creativity.
Now I don’t know WHAT to make.

Wow, I’m jealous of your yarny organizer. I just have plastic stacking bins hidden in the closet, but this makes such a nice display.

Eggs exploding and catching on fire…. seen it! Apparently if you have the skills to set whole eggs to boil and then forget about them until the water completely evaporates, the eggs completely freak out. I’d say it has something to do with physics and internal versus external pressure, but the truth is that it’s probably demons. How else would they catch on fire after exploding? Hmm?
