How Not to Poach an Egg


Note to husband:
The other day you said
to make you a poached egg
but that you read in your "Breakfast Bible" err, I mean
"Breakfast Book" that a person could
"rumble" the egg, ie: scramble,
and then pour it into the water
like a regular poached egg.
I followed your instructions,
though bewildered by what
I thought would actually happen.
You woke up just as I was figuring
out how in the world to
take it out of the water, now that it was
um, "rumpled" or "rumbled"
whatever.
So, with a smile on my face,
I served it to you
with a straw.
So much for your "recipe" that
you "thought" you
had actually read.
