Another moment of unabashed pragmatism

Having run out of butter, I used a little bit of olive oil to grease the fry pan this morning.  And you know what?  The eggs tasted just as good as they usually do—and even a tad Italian, if such a thing is possible.

    That would be great with your lard-crusted hash browns.

  2. Tman says:

    Yeah, but how do your breasts feel?

  3. McGehee says:

    Jeff, bad news about olive oil. That “extra virgin” part? It doesn’t mean what you think it means.

  4. Scott P says:

    McGehee, you’re a funny mo fo.  Jeff should link to you more, beacuse:

    HE IS A CITIZEN JOURNALIST, GIVING IS HIS CALLING AND PAT BOONE OR HUGH HEWITT (you might want to ask him) IS HIS MASTER!!!!!

    When I ran out of butter, I just sprayed on Pam. She was not amused.

    Hey, you could even step it down to vegetable oil or nothign at all, depending on the cooking surface.  Most decent pans have non-stick teflon that you don’t even need the butter for.  And you know what that means right?  If you cut down your butter intake, you cut down the LIKELIHOOD OF GROWING A GREAT SET OF BITCH TITS.  YOU KNOW, MAN CANS.

    Sorry for yelling, but Jeff said it was a good way to assert my place in the universe or something.  I’m not sure what that has to do with man-titties, but it made me laugh.

    Shank,

    Thank you so much for the expression MAN CANS!

    That’s the funniest thing I’ve read all day.

    I must admit, I stole it from a movie titled “Rolling Kansas”.  It’s frickin’ hilarious.

    What can I say, I’m a phony.  My career path looks like it’ll take me into the nightly news business though.  Oho!

    Check it out, they stole your recipe.

  10. TallDave says:

    I’ve been doing that for a couple years now.  Nothing better! I recommend extra virgin.  Also, you should use a lighter oil.

  11. TallDave says:

    Also, there is no truth to the rumor “extra virgin” for lubrication will make your girlfriend, ummm, “like new.”

    How do I know?  Never you mind!

    I was going to say that eggs don’t have taste buds, but I don’t want to start that whole debate on whether or not life begins at conception.

  13. Try some onions and curry spices in an omelette sometime.

    You know, Popeye like to not only eat spinach, but also Olive Oyle.

    It’s a three-way if they add a dash of basil.

    +pinch of Oregan-o – Savez ce que veux dire?

    “Save my place in the voir dire line?”

    I don’t get it.
