Well if you like 40 degree temp. change in 12 hours, this is the place.

Personally, I'm ready for something else.

My husband says I do good poached eggs, just drop em in the water and that's it, til the toast is done.

Don't own a house. Don't even own a car at the moment - that's my next project. So unfortunately you can't have my job unless you're prepaid to pay a preposterous sum of money for it.

I can do scrambled eggs - the English ones where they're still a bit runny. I also do a mean cereal and milk.
