Rise and Shine is my way of sitting down and having a cup of coffee with you! We talk about the new deals of the day, highlights from yesterday, and anything else that might help us save time, money or energy. I share with you what’s happening with me – and I LOVE to hear about what’s happening with you.
Good morning! How’s it going today?
With Easter around the corner I thought it would be fun to blog about the perfect hard-boiled egg. So yesterday I tried to make the perfect boiled egg by trying a bunch of methods. I started with cold water, boiled water and baked them. All for different times and temperatures. I’m seriously such a geek. I cut them all open to see the results and frankly I’m not sure one method was better than another. I have a couple more techniques I want to try – but I’ll be sharing those results later this week. 🙂 I think my husband almost had me committed when he came home and say a pile of egg shells the size of Mt. Rainier. Being a blogger is full of random projects like this – I love it. What’s your favorite way to make a “hard-boiled egg and/or your favorite recipes for hard-boiled eggs?
Find out what it means when a coupon says “Redeemable at Walmart” I share my thoughts on all these coupons mentioning Walmart lately.
