The Corner

Re: Gloat Encounter

Back home, now I hear the speech is two o’clock. One o’clock, two o’clock,

just make the speech, John.

Time for lunch: corned beef hash (Broadcast brand, of course) & poached

eggs. Going to try one of the responses to my egg bleg the other day –

microwave poaching. This recipe was from Dave in Michigan:

–Put a pat of butter into a coffee cup.

–Crack open the egg and put it into the cup sans the shell.

–Cover the cup with a piece of waxed paper.

–Nuke the egg for 30 seconds, give or take a few seconds (double the time

for two eggs).
