Fresh Lemony Eggs

I had a slow day yesterday and nothing out of the ordinary happened to write about. It’s a good thing that my neighbor Robin came over last night for tea and snacks (yes, more snacks – not good). She told me a rather amusing story that I just have to share . . .

Robin spent a good part of one of the weekend days cleaning her house. She was busy dusting and polishing the furniture when her very thoughtful husband offered to cook her lunch. How nice. He made her some tasty lemony eggs that she really enjoyed. When they were done with lunch she headed back to her chores of polishing the furniture. She grabbed her rag, but couldn’t find the Pledge. She knew exactly where she left it (next to the rag, no doubt) but it wasn’t there. Suddenly she got a sinking feeling in her stomach, ran to the grill (where her husband cooked the eggs) and found her bottle of Pledge sitting there. Apparently the Pledge looks an awful lot like the PAM! The good news is that she survived without evening getting a stomach ache.

So here’s your cooking tip of the day: If you ever run out of PAM and need to grease your pan, why not choose a fresh lemony bottle of Pledge.
